the regiment. In some quarters an at
tempt has been made to bolster up the
condition Of the regimoat by pointing to
the fact that il had very much larger
turn out at annual inspection than did its
sister commands, the Sth and the 9th, of
Manhattan. In speaking Of this a well
known officer said: "This annual muster,
as every we'll informed person knows, is
nothing but count, and shows nothing
of the efficiency Of a command. The true
efficiency Of command is judged on field
service, and in this practical test the 18th,
as official data show. has proved inferior
TO both the Sth and 9th Regiments in per-
centage Of attendance at coast defence
exercises and also In other details. AS the
largest command it needed a shaking up,
and in the future must prove that its
value is not alone on how many men can
turn out at an annual inspection or at
review, but on practical efficiency and a
better knowledge of important duties
among the officers generally"

Major General John F. organ, COM
handing the New York National Guard,
is greatly pleased with the work Of the
several schools of application which he
opened last year. In an official report
which deals with the schools for the sew
eraI branches Of the service General
Organ says, in part: "The fundamental
principle underlying the work OF the
schools of application was the thorough
ness in the essentials which make for
efficiency in war. Discipline. sanitation,
supply and the mechanism of the COM
pany in combat were therefore subjects to
which much time was devoted. The prin-
ciple of thoroughness of instruction and
training in these essentials will continue
TO be the underlying principle in the eX-
tension of the work OF the school OF the
line and staff. 1t is proposed to extend
this character of instruction ultimately TO
1clude the reinforced brigade, so that
oficers and men may know the possibili-
ties and limitations OF the other arms ana
develop the proper coordination and team
work when the mission involved calls for
the use Of the combined arms"

Instructor on duty with the New York
National Guard, has very high opinion
of the provisional company of infantry
organized at war strength which was on
duty at the school Of application during

, the company Colonel Sage says: AT the
md OF three weeks l consider that the
company was in excellent shape. 1t had

and few In the regular service had ever
