Moral Effects of Athletics.

Aside from its physical effect, the
moral effect Of athletics, In the case
of the soldier at least, is OF no small
value. My experience has been that
men are less likely to drink in the
football or baseball season. even
though they may be addicted to the
use of intoxicants. And thus no spe-
cial effort may have been made along
these lines by those in charge of the
sports. The class of men who go
in for athletics and excel In such
contests are the most desirable sol.
diers and the best all around men.
Still another advantage of athletics
is that good athletic teams and the
reputation for post of having cham
pion teams draw good recruits and
soldiers to enlist there.-Army and
Navy Life.
