prietorship in the navy. When suf-
hcient number of American citizens
get this sentiment its effect will be
felt in politics and legislation.
The public appearance of the army
or units of the army is valuable to
the public and to the military serv-
ice. Every American, deep down in
his consciousness, is proud of the
American army-his army-but his
pride is quickened when he sees it
on parade or at drill. The public
likes the army. and it feels better
when it understands that the army
likes the public. In a country con-
stituted as ours, the army needs the
interest and support of popular opin-
ion. 1t would be a good thing for
the army to get into the public spot
light and join with the people in
their celebrations and festivals at
every opportunity. 1t is easier for
soldiers than civilians to stir up the
military instinct. Drums and bugles
and flags have their psychological ef-
feet on civilian masses very much as
on troops.
Part of the remarkable change in
the general civilian attitude toward
and better understanding of the
army is very probably due to the as
ISOLATION between the regular army
and the organized militia, which has
been encouraged in late years. Every
army officer has it in his power to be
quiet but effective missionary for
an adequate national defense force.
Proper personal contact can often
make more ardent converts than an
official report.

Commentator of the Police.

The police department of the Dis
trict of Columbia never appeared to
better advantage than at the G. A. K.
parade. All police arrangements, care
fully mapped out in advance OF the
great event, were executed without
hitch. The Avenue was cleared on
time and not too far ahead of time,
and was kept clear. The crowds were
handled without friction, and all the
details OF police arrangement were
carried out with marked smoothness
and order. The officers and men
looked smart, the horses of the
mounted men were we'll groomed and
the horse equipment was clean.
Washington is proud of the showing
made by its police.

War. and After.

The impressive spectacle Washing
ton has just witnessed gives assur-
ance on two points of very wide in
terest at this time: D War does not
demoralize men and unfit them tor
peaceful pursuits, and (2) it does not
stunt the succeeding generation, ply
sically or intellectually. When 'Eu-
rope closes her awful conflict, she will
right herself all right at no distant
day.
The great majority OF the men who
fought in our great sectional up
heava1 were young. some not much
more than lads. They saw four years
of real struggle for supremacy. They
were tested to the limit, in camp, on
the march, and on the field of bat
tie. They were at the impressionable
age. but did not yield to the un-
toward features of their surround
ings. The end found them with the
spirit and capacity for the walks and
duties of peace, and they were soon
zens. They were out OF soldier
clothes and into civilian clothes in
no time.
A great many fine fellows fell, and
their loss was heavy and deplorable.
But great many fine fellows sur
vived; and added to the number were
men who because of age or impera-
tive calls at home did not enlist
From those two sources have come
the men who have been doing things
since the war, and are now doing
things. Have they not shown them
selves equal to the emergencies?
The empire west of the Mississippi
has been developed in that time,
showing both Drawn and brain in the
builders. No stunted race could have
done that work Those who did it
take place beside the colonial pio-
neers. Strong cities and states have
risen under their hands.
In history, in literature, in oratory,
in invention, in the applied arts,
Americans in the past half century
have done much-in invention have
done wonders. The grade of our pub
lie servants keeps up. Our business
alertness has carried. us far. No
anemia of any kind anywhere.
Strength of body and strength of
mind are recognized American char
acteristics.
The horrors and evils of war
do not need to be emphasized. All
acknowledge them. Wars losses,
both of blood and treasure, bear
heavily on the country that sustains
them. When large numbers of young
men perish and business is dislocated
or wiped out the result is appalling
But it is comforting to realize that
progress is but checked, and recov-
cry speedy. Nations, like individuals,
rise on their dead selves to higher
things"

Friends of the Navy and Army.

The naval vessels in the harbor Of
Was hington have attracted thou
sands of Americans. An exhibition
of ships of the navy can always be
relied on as a drawing card at any
national celebration. 1t is an eff
fective advertisement for the navy.
A visit to a naval ship gives to the
average American an awakened in
terest in that branch of the national
service. When he goes upon war
ship that visit becomes an event in
his life. He remembers the name OF
the ship and very likely he picks up
and cherishes the names of some OF
the officers or of the seamen he hap
pens to meet. His national pride is
luickened and he feels sense of pro-
