ARMY DEFECTS

According to the report Of Inspector
General Darlington. the effectiveness
Of the United States army is seriously
impaired by the absence Of officers
from their commands. one specific
instance mentioned is that n whole
battalion Of field artillery recently
started for the Philippines without a
single field officer.
The fact is also set forth that one
Of the batteries was commanded by a
second Lieutenant not long out OF the

field officers. had been detailed 20 per-

For many centuries the granite barrier
of the Blue Ridge rolled back the waters
Of the Delaware into a vast inland sea,
subrnerging the now fertile valleys and
the verdure-clad mountains with Its blue
flood; unable longer to withstand the
tremendous pressure Of the surging wat
ers, the wall parted and the river burst
through with terrific force in Its irresisti-
bic march to the sea. Thus was formed
