No Corsefs at West Point

Col. X B. Collins retired army officer who
was seen at the Raleigh, in discussing West
POINTERS said to a reporter of the WASHINGTON
Herald: i have often heard question as
10 "nether West Pointers wore corsets. 1t is
absurd In way, because should any effem-
mate youngster resort to such a thing it
would be an impossibility to keep the affair
secret and once known, his school life would
become burden to him on account of the
endless amount of criticism he would receive
from his fellows. He would be made the
laughing stock of the school and would soon
nnd himself the possessor of any number of
effeminate nicknames that would crate upon
his ears in any but pleasant manner.
1T Is true" continued the old soldier, that
many West Pointers acquire figure the per-
lection OF symmetry and carriage the acme
OF manly grace, but these are due not to any
ingenious appliance, but to the systematic
drills and exercises that make every cadet, to
a certain extent, athlete. At the outset
these young fellows put through what are
called the setting up exercises, their object
being to straighten the body and develop the
chest. One might suppose that it would re-
qulre great amount of such exercise to make
any marked showing, but three long hours
OF such exercise daily will soon produce bene-
