hatConstitute
a Coward?
B, ANDREW c. EWING

During the civil war a party Of Fed
vral officers were sitting on camp
chairs before the tent of the regimental
surgeon, Curran, chatting, and the con-
~versation turned on what constituted
courage. Some Of the party advocated
the theory that physical bravery meant
a want Of appreciation of the danger
Incurred, mentioning in support Of the
opinion that the younger the man the
less his fear. Others averred that
bravery meant resolution to with
stand fear and face danger without
finching. Some n asked the sur
geon's view of the matter.
II think, or, rather. l know, that
all men are towards physically. Fred
erick the Great was right about it
when he said that any man who had
not known fear had lever snuffed a
candle with his fingers. But this does
not mean that some men are not more
cowardly than others. What l mean is
that there are nerve centers in us that
act in face of danger independently Of
our will. I have understood that Jul
president has said that he never knew
Of q ace between the head and the
heels but that the heels won. What
he means is that when sensible of dan
ger, danger always gets the better Of
us. Most of you line officers know
that when you 60 into a fight you feel
afraid. After you get battle mad you
lose that fear. Why? Because you
become insensible to the danger.
Lieutenant Eldridge of d company
has been court martialed for cowardice
and sentenced to be cashiered. He will
suffer under his disgrace so long as he
lives. He is no more to blame than If
he had been born deaf or blind. 1t
simply means that at the approach of
danger certain nerve centers in his
brain order his nerves to deprive him
Of bravery"
"What's this you're scattering among
my o~facers?'. said the colonel sternly,
coming out of his tent. "That sort O
talk will induce every man who don't
wish to do his duty to find an excuse

the members of the party were re-

could resist an impulse to snatch away
his finger when the serpent struck the
glass on the other side Of 1t.
When all had been put to the test
except the colonel the doctor invited
him to step up and show his courage.
Being prepared, he made a strong ef-
fort to keep his finger on the glass,
when the snake struck, but involuntar-
lily withdrew it. He looked mortified
and c%restfallen.
