Spade Work War Feature

That spade work has provided the sur

OF W. q. Clifford. author of The Brit

London. A slow war of deadly attrition
has been the inevitable result. There
has been developed the science of under
ground fortress construction. The old
time trenches have disappeared. In their
place have come formidable under

the Germans. In numerous ways the

This war has proved that every in

its significance does not appear to have

rifle SOCIETIES
RESERVE BASIS
National Rifle Association
Forms 438 Clubs, with a
Membership of 1858.
STRAIGHT SHOOTING AIM
Young Men Trained in Handling of
Gun Most Important Feature of
Requirements.

While leading military authorities
in urging Congress to provide for a
reserve to the established military
forces, the National Rife Association
of America is going ahead without
flare of trumpets or financial assist
ance from Congress in the building up
of a reserve that will be trained in
so per cent of the requisites of an
efficient soldier-the ability TO handle
the rifle and shoot straight.
The National Rifle Association is do
ing this through its organization of
rifle clubs throughout the country,
especially among civilians. A great i'm
petus to the movement was given
through the enactment of legislation
at the last session of Congress author
izing the free issue of "Krag" rifles
and ammunition to rifle clubs under
rules and regulations approved by the
Secretary of War.
The Secretary of War placed the or
ganiZation Of the clubs and distribu-
ton of the rifles in the hands of the
association, which had an eh1cient or
ganization with secretaries in every
State and was in close touch with the
class Of citizens whom 1t was desired
to reach The splendid military fea-
tuIC
will add considerably to the national
defenses is that. not only are citizens
being organized into clubs and trained
in rifle shooting. but the statistics
show that about 60 per cent OF the
members of these clubs are former
army and National Guardsmen, SO that
they not only are keeping up their
training in rife shooting, but already
are trained in other necessary attri-
butes of q soldier.
Need OF Rifle Ranges.
All that is necessary for Congress
to do to secure an efficient reserve for
the regular services and one that
would be along the lines that have
proved so efficient in Switzerland is
to make the rifle club movement really
broad and national in its scope by
proper appropriations for the building
Of rifle ranges throughout the coun-
try and the purchase of target sup
plies and other paraphernalia for the
carrying on of rifle training among
citixens- When this has been accom-
plished. then will President Wilson
really see the consummation Of his
desire to have 'citizcnry trained in
the use OF arms

MAN OF MANY HOBBIES
is SUCCESSOR TO BRYAN
Robert Lansing Has Passion for Hard Work and Long
Hours-Fortunes Of War Bring Into Limehght Genius
that Long Has Been Hidden.

But the years had not only broad
ened him as an international lawyer
of genius but were tutoring him IN
diplomacy, for which he was especially
fitted because of a striking personality
and pleasing appearance. His ABILITY
as diplomatist resulted in his reach
ing the height of his career in 1913.
when he was withdrawn as agent for
the government in the American
British Claims Arbitration and ap-
pointed counselor to the Department
of State. That is, il was his crowning
success until the event of last week.
Mr.. Lansing has several hobbies. in
which he INDUCES spasmodically.
Among a small circle of intimates. he
is accounted a poet OF unusual gifts,
but his writings were never published
He also is an artist with the brush
and in draghting. For sports, he
plays an occasional game of golf.
goes to a baseball game once in a
while. and puts in a great deal OF
time fishing when at his summer
home in Henderson Harbor.
The Acting Secretary has another de-
votion. that of going to church twice on
Sunday with Mrs. Lansing who was the
daughter of John W. Foster. Secretary
of State in President Harrison's admin
istration. He also is fond of the thea
tiers.
One of Mr.. Iansing's favorite hobbies
is his consolation pipe. a fore-shortened
briar of blackened appearance. his COM
panion during his study of the knottiest
diplomatic problems
Mr.. Lansing has passion for ONCE
work. reaching his Office at o'clock in
the morning and getting away frequently
not until or I O'Clock. But he is an
easy boss" in connection with which
il might be stated he made no sweeping
changes in Office personnel when he be-
came the counselor.
