Ne Corsets 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: II have often heard question as
to whether West Pointers wore corsets. It Is
absurd, In way, because should any effem-
mate youngster resort to such a thing Il
would be an impossblity to keep the affair
a 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
find 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 shat
many West Pointers acquire a 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 tst
certain extent, an athlete. At the outsex
these young fellows are put through what arc
called the setting up exercises, their object
being to straighten the body and develop the
chest. One might suppose that 1t would re-
Quire great amount Of such exercise to mako
any marked showing. but three long hourh
of such exercise daily. will soon produce bene
1cial results In the most stopped forms.
The cadet uniform is also a great help I'M
this direction. The dress coat Is tight, very
tight The shoulders are heavily padded in
order to give them square effect. The chest
Is made thick. so that there will be no dan.
ger OF wrinkling. And in size, new dress
coat seems always to be designed for boy
several sizes smaller than the one who is to
wear IT, new dress coat, in fact. IL always
a source of suffering to its owner. When he
FIRST puts It on, It buttons readily about the
neck. but seems to lack about six inches at
the waist. The owner may squirm and wrig-
gle and attempt to reduce his waist to a mini.
mum circumference. but his maiden efforts are
never SUFFICIENT to button the new dress coat.
Experience II a great teacher, though. and the
young fellow laughingly requests one or two
friends 20 lend their assistance, and with their
combined Juggling and squeezing he finally sue

A number of years ago there lived

Gus woman-hater. 1t was before the
day of ready-made clothing, and want
ing new suit. he was obliged to take
the material to the village tailoresa.
She took his measurements. and whom
she cut the coat, made a liberal al
lowance on each seam.
The mans dislike Of women In gem
eral prevented his having fitting.
He took the finished garment without
trying 1t on. 1t was much too large.
and his disgust was apparent In the
answer he made to the friendly loafer
on his first visit to the postohice.
when he wore the despised article.

producing provinces, as they are also the prin-
cipal grain producers. Next to these come
La Pampa, Santiago and Salta, each OF which
provinces carries from about 100000 to 1,000,-
900 cattle. Then come San Luis, Mendoza, La
Rioja and Catamarca, averaging about half
of these numbers. In the north, MisioneS,
Formosa and Ell Chaco, and in the south Rio
Negro and Chubut are rapidly becoming i'm
portant cattle districts. Even San Juan and
Neuquen. on the Andean slope, and Santa
Cruz and TERRA del Fuego In the extreme
SOUTH are finding that cattle as we'll as sheep
can be raised with profit. In fact there is
but little territory In the Argentine Republic
which is not suitable for either cattle or sheep.
Beef is exported from the La Plata region
on the hoof, as sailed or as meat extracts, and
frozen In quarters.
England is the principal market for South
American beef. The frozen-meat industry In
the Argentine Republic has grown up since
the closing OF the English market to live
cattle.
In the year 1908 the Argentine Republic ex-
ported 60,916 head of live beef cattle. three
fourths Of which went to Chile. It exported
2,295,7S4 quarters (573,946 whole beeves) Of
frozen beef, and from the sailing works 1854
400 beeves as salt beef meat extract or jerked
beef.
In this latter industry Uruguay in addition
exported $4,000 and southern Brazil 425000
head, respectively
AS field for investment In the cattle in
dustry the La Plata region offers the very
best of chances. In fact, It is without rival,
and will remain such until like enterprise
and capital which has there produced such
marvellous results shall seek a new opportu-
nifty on the Oronoco and In the upper Amazon

Charleston. w. Va, July 10. 1910.
Mr.. George w. Hanes, Charles Town,
w. Va,
Dear Sir:-A friend of our department
has called our attention to your editorial
in the July 5th issue of the Spirit of Jef
ferson, in which you quote some of the
figures sent out by this department. We
wish to thank you for any publicity you
may feel able to give to the statistics
gathered by this office, and being relab-
~ informed that you are gentlemen OF
that splendid Southern type, who would
not knowingly do any man an injury, We
are going to briefly reply to some sections
of your editorial.
There is no doubt but that many OF
your readers are thoroughly familiar with
the prosecution of young Marshall Wood,
who burned the barn of Chas. o. Payne,
located not more than fifteen miles from
your town. This is the only case we have
had in the courts in your section of the
State.
Concerning the Fire Marshal tax we
sh to say that this revenue is derived
by special tax on insurance companies
doing business in this State, and since
they have not since the creation of this
office. advanced their rates on account
of this tax, you will readily see that this
department costs the cit;z-ns of West
Virginia absolutely nothing.
Hoping that you will accept this COM
munication in personal way and in the
same spirit in which it is written, | beg
to remain, Very truly yours,
CHAs. A. ELLISON.
Chief Fire Marshal.
