OPENED WEST POINT IN 1902
Great Tralning School Has Turned Out
Some Efficient Officers for
Uncle Sam.

The selection of West Point as the
place for the national military acad-
envy was due. says Mrs. C. R. Miller in
Leslie's Weekly, to its advantages
from a military viewpoint, for its
rugged beauty and its severe climate
were calculated to be beneficiaLin the
foundation of that sort of character SO
essential to successful officer. The
academy was formally opened July 4,
1902, with ten cadets and five officers
as instructors. Its success is said to
be due to the administrative ability Of
General Sylvanus Thayer, who became
Its superintendent in 1917 and served
as such for 16 years. This officer Is
known as the Father of West Point.
Since the opening Of the academy, In
GLIDING the class Of 1911, more than
five thousand officers have been gradu-
ated.
A cadets education costs the gov
eminent about $4,000. All cadets are
on the same footing. The pay Of a
cadet is 5000 a year and one ration
per day, or communication thereof at 30
cents day. The total is about $709.50,
to commence with his admission to the
academy. Immediately after his ad-
mission the young man must spend
about $3.50 for uniforms.
After graduation the cadet Is eligl'
BILE to the rank of second lieutenant
and is appointed to whatever branch
of the service his record entities him
Those who are highest in class honors
are generally appointed to the engi
neer corps.
An act Of congress authorizing the
expenditure of $5,sO0,OOO for the re
construction of the United States Mill
tary Academy was passed In June
1902, and at later session of con
gress $1,7O0,OOO additional was al
lowed.

Park Seats to Make Money,

San Jose, Cal. is trying in its park
a bench devised by E. w. Allen for
use in connection with the free seats.
1t is a swinging seat so arranged that
until a nickel is deposited in a slot,
the back is tilted forward and the seat
downward. so that 1t can not be used.
A coin releases 1t, however. and pro
vides a rocking seat for two persons.
AS soon as they leave the seat swings
back to its former position, and re-
quires another nickel to unlock It. In
sunny places the bench is placed UNI
der a canopy. The inventor believes
that on Sundays and other times,
when there are unusual crowds in the
park, many people viii be willing to
spend nickel for comfortable seat
for their exclusive use.-The Survey,
