Since Secretary JOscphus Daniels
has been at the helm, thu "atchw0rd
OF the navy has been educatiC" for
the enlisted personnel, and the public
prints have given much space 10 the
exploitation OF Uncle Sans floating
schools. II Is not SO generally known,
however. that the other great branch
Of the United States service, the
army, is working hard along the same
lines. and that Oahu is taking lead
ing part in evolving comprehensive
system of education for the men who
wear the olive drab~ The post school
for enlisted men is an old institution
in the army, but recently, right here
in Hawaii. there has been great pro
gress made In the whole scheme OF
better education for the soldier, and
as the results Of extended experiment
and observation during the garrison
training period just closed, it is quite
likely that radical changes for the
better will be made in old establish
ed customs.
Chaplain s. NJ. Lutz, 4th Cavalry,
is the man who has supplied the ex,
perienced, the hard work and the en-
thusiasm for the new system, and in
this good work ne has received the
active assistance of Chaplain Aiken
Of the LIST Infantry, and Chaplain
Scptt Of the 25th. A working plan
has been tried and found satisfactory,
and II Is hoped that the scheme OF
progressive instruction put out by
Chaplain Lutz may be adopted by the
entire army.
Heretofore the post school for en-
listed men at any army post has been
a rather heavy and cumbersome af-
fair, not particularly interesting to
the soldierstudents, and not meeting
with the fun support of the company
officers, for the reason that men who
attended often had to be excused from
other, duties, throwing the burden of
their duty on their comrades. This
caused discomfort and hard feeling.
Another handicap was the lack Of.
text books, which existed at nearly
every sizeabIe post II,
Chaplain Lutz, as the result Of
months OF study and experiment,
evolved graded system Of eleinen-
tary' instruction. This consisted OF
FIVE separate courses, the subject mat
ter of each course being gotten out
in q neat pamphlet, which the student
can carry in his pocket. and have with
him at all times, SO that the unoccu-
pied moment can he made use of for
study. The FIVE courses inclusive,
cover arithmetic, writing, spelling,
reading, dictation, history, geogra-
ply. English grammar, composition,
algebra and physiology, in carefully
graded form. a-e,@
In Colonel w. D. Beach, command
ing the 4th Cavalry, Chaplain Lutz
found staunch supporter. and an en-
thusiast, and during the past winter
the plan was tried out to some ex-
tent. It was found that the men took
to the school eagerly, and at the end
of the term long list OF names APP

the first examination. and then re-
Quire those who fail in this second

II is believed that il such require
ment is made and the manual for
course two be made available for those
having passed couse one that larg"
percentage Of the hest and most de-
sirab!e men will in a few months
time of their own volition qualify in
course two.
This course should also be taught in
the night school so that those desir-
ing or needing assistance might be
able to get it there.
1t is contemplated that course
three should be conducted in the same
manner as course two, that is made
available to those who have qualified
in course two.
1t is contemplated that course four
should be conducted in the same man
ner as course three, that is made
available to those who have qualified
in course three.
Course five is purely optional and
is intended for those who wish to
broaden their mental attainments be-
yond course four.
1t should be nrted that while these
courses are brief, they are thorough
and complete in what they propose,
their very brevity and consciences
will induce many to attempt Their
mastery who would despair to ven
ture a more extended and elaborate
treatment of the same subject or the
whole subject in one course.
One of the chief merits of the sys-
tenn we believe, is the compact, con-
venient and inexpensive form in
which the courses are projected, max
ing it possible for a man to carry
them anywhere with him to study at
odd times or leisure moments with
the possibility of replacing them east
ly for a few cents if lost or destroyed.

Chaplain LutZ will recommend the
adoption CT the system for the whole
army, and there is a good chance of
such action being taken. In a memo
randum relative to the graded system,
issued when the school was launched,
the chaplain reports:
AS a definite basis for the prepare,
tiCn of this graded system he examin-
ed about four hundred recruits who
had arrived at this post during the
past year, from the Cavalry, Artillery
and Infantry arms of the service, in,
Guiding both white and colored.
He found about 70 per cent Of these
men deficient in the requirements
embraced in course one. as outlined in
this system. These were practically
all first enlistment men.
Out of 80 per cent that passed
course one only about per cent OF
the original number were able to
qualify in course two, as outlined in
the system.
there qualified in course three 2 pei
C0nI vi lue OTlSIldl nuHuSTs
And out of those passing course
three, there qualified in course four
about ! per cent of the original mum
Der.
Course one is intended to embrace
only that degree of mental qualifica-
ton which is absolutely necessary to
equip private soldier to perform his
several duties intelligently. that is to
the extent that he may intelligently
understand a verbal order or read q
written or printed one. or as an or
derby transmit such an order, and that
he may be able to make the com
putations and records necessary in
acquiring efficiency in workmanship
This intellectual qualification should
in large degree, at the same time
add to the soldiers general mental
balance and make him more amen
able to discipline, thus becoming III
consequence a more useful and eff
cient unit of the service.
1t Is thought that Every private
should qualify in course one. This
can be easily accomplished, without
interference with the soldiers regu
lar military duty in several ways.
He suggests that all recruits be
examined in course one, on their

CANCER NOT 4 DISEASE
 OF THE BLOOD

Cancer causes thousands of preventable deaths because peO- pie do nott.seek surgical treat ment in time, even after they know theysBhave the disease.
 Surgeons with practices so ex- tensive that their reports fur nish a reliable guide have shown that cancer patients even after discovering some e suspicious symptoms wait on the average a whole yearstbefore they seek treatment. To control the dis ease with.our present knowledge the firstssssthing tosdo is to elimi
 nate this fatal delay. To do this it is necessary to understand why patients are so loath to seek eX- animation. A misapprehenslon which constitutes one reason for reluctance to consult physician in time. is the notion which still prevails that cancei is constitu- tional disease caused by some poison in the blood. Those who hold this mistaken opinion com- monly believe that the disease is hereditaryland in a vague way they think therel must be some taint handed down from one gen. eration to another which causes cancer togfourish in certain fam lilies. Sue h misapprehension combined with the notion which has long prevailed that cancer is incurable and that it is of no use to try to have anything done for it, accounts for the extraor- dinary;delay of the sufferer in seeking relief Tn some cases. A further probable cause is the fact that cancer insthe early stages is relatively painless. Many a sur geon hasl:wished that cancer in it's early manifestations might cause the sufferer half as much trouble as the toothache, in which case the patient would surely be driven to seek relief in time. Cancer is at first a local growth and not a general dis ease of the system: This fact is of the utmost importance, since it holds out the high hope of cure if the malignant growth is re-

increase in freight rates. Also he speaks of prosperity in the present tense, not in the fu- ture. It is not coming, it is here; and growing all the time.
 With such crops as those of this year, the country cannot help being prosperous, said Mir. Farwell. Much of the crop is already harvested and on the way to market. Conditions are good with the rest, in the main.
 Prosperity is greatest in az ricultural sections and in the cities which serve such sections. Good times are starting on the farms. The farming communi- ties have money to buy what they wanteand need. Manufac- turing districts are not in such good shape yet but they will be before long. Prosperity is spread. ing and will continue to spread.

moved befose it has time to other parts of the body. Cancer appears in other places because small particles or cells are car ried away from the first site and start new growths elsewhere.
 The great hope of cure there. fore lies in removing cancer en- tirely from the system before it has a chance to spread from it's first foothold.
 The reason why so many peo- pie came to believe that cancer was blood disease is because 1t was observed to come again in the same or other parts of the body after having been appar- ently cut out. It was natural to assume that when the disease kept coming back in this manner there must be some taint in the blood. The trouble was that in earlier times cancer was not real. ly cut out. Surgeons then did the best they knew how, but without the advantages of mod ern methods they were unable successfully to exterminate the disease even in it's inciplent and local stage. This was principal ly because they did not operate extensively enough. The mi croscope has now shown us the paths by which cancer cells start their invasion of the body and modern surgeons are repeatedly successful in removing the dis ease once for all. Cancer is not a blood disease, and there is no conclusive evidence that it is hereditary. Many efforts have been made to show that the dis ease is transmitted from one gen. eration to another or that at least a certain susceptibility to cancer is thus passed on. The evidence on this point, however, remains insufficient. On the oth- CT hand, there is much statistical and experimental evidence to show that heredity plays a very small part if any in the develop ment of cancer. American Med ical Association.
