CHOOSING A LIFE WORK.

The ocean Of life Is filled with dere-
lects Of failures. Men who wander
aimlessly through the walks oS life and
whye The cause in most Of the cases
is the failure to learn either trade
or a good profession. 1t IS not the maa
with a good mechanical training who
has difficulty In obtaining work. No,
the skilled workman who loiters about
the streets. But the man who neglect
ed this and is capable only OF doing
such work as mostly anyone can DO
If he desires 1t is very important
step for the youth to determine as hs
drifts from bo.hood into the more
mature life manhood"
And If right reasoning is not used.
the remainder of his life is apt to be
4 failure and a loss.
A man is better fitted for life who
has a trade Of some kind behind even
though he is of a profession. A man
who can work and do it better than
anyone else is the man who not only
reaches the top most round of ti1a lad
der Of success and raaus the great
harvest of life.
Not TO be a professional man or a
merchant but to be the best in what
ever line he chooses to follow. is a
motto every boy should instin in his
heart and live after.

BY direction of the President. Sec
retary Root has issued a general or.
der decreasing the strength of our

reduces this figure to 66, 6,i97.-a reduc-
tion OF 1920. In the cavalry branch
OF the service the old order specified
IL troops OF S5 men each to a regi-
ment; the new order establishes IL
troops of rs men each. This will de.
crease the total strength of the 10
cavalry regiments from 1880 to H.
Oi0. In the artillery branch the coast
contingent will be kept at It's former
strength of 1876 companies Of 1O9 EN-.

men. which In addition to the light

artillery corps total enlisted strength
of l7.7i2. as against the 1852 men
provided in the former order. The
new order reduces the number of men
to an infantry company from 10i to
