Training for the Ballet.

Members of the ballet III the Paris
opera house are given a most thorough
training. The SiXty-iour elves.
better known as the rats, are select
ed at the age Of years. They are
chosen, in the first place. for their pref
tincss and intelligence. This thlls
down the number of candidates by over
80 per cent. The second test Is the
medical examination. only children

Every day for an hour they must go
thu ough the drill, stretching out theit'
legs while they hold on to the rail
fixed to the wall. They must be abe

professors are entirely dependent on
moral suasion by word and gesture.

Some of the army officers are eX-
pressing themselves as doubling the
efficacy of 50 much military education.
1t is found that a commissioned officer
of the army does not get through
schooling until he is forty years old.
Tn. critics say that the army has
reached the limit of its intellectual
training Of officers. Those who
are familiar with army sentiment
an the. subject are surprised that no
suggestion of this kind has appeared
in tn" annual reports which have been
filed at the War Department from
prominent officers. especially when
some of them are known to have ex-
pressed the view that the department
has exacted too much of officers in
the way of studies. This situa-
ton is recalled by the fact that
the chief of artillery will urge adj
ditional restrictions and conditions on
commissioned officers of that branch
