THE Swiss and Austrian models
have been followed in some degree,
but the big outstanding features OF
the plan are entirely original, having
particular regard for American and
prejudices.
Boston has had high school cadets
for fifty years, and Washington, D. c.,
for 80 years, but the Wyoming expert
ment lends itself best to investigation
because it has had the acid test of
opposition.

Opposition General.
THE labor unions opposed the plan
in toto denouncing it as a scheme of
the employing class to crush labor.
Parents objected in fear that martial
ideal would be instilled into the minds

destroy initiative.
IAN these arguments were met and
overcome in most kindly spirit by
Lieutenant Steever. who In concluding
his reply to the educators said: my
cadet plan reaches every boy In the
school with a training that will
strengthen him mentally, physically
and morally.
Success Of the Plan.
The fight for military training was
won when the Cheyenne school board
consented to Its introduction. The
training proved immensely beneficial
In every way and was very popular
with the students. The system was
introduced in high school after high
school in Wyoming and everywhere
with the same result-large physical
and moral development without any
decrease in intellectual training, with
increased health outlook and a mill
tary preparedness with little addi-
tional training after leaving school eff
ficiently to defend their country
against foreign foes.
ut should be added that the system
is absolutely voluntary in Wyoming
and is entirely separate from the state
militia. The girls encourage the boys
and volunteer to learn the art of nurs-
ing and they assist in the contests.
What do our high school people
think of the system? What Is the SEN
timent of Nevada in the premises?
Will state and nation aid the move
ment If started in the high schools ?
Can we duplicate the great achieve
ment of Wyoming? We have nearly
600 boys in Nevada high schools.
High school teachers and school
officers are advised to read the article
in Everybody's for February entitled
"Wyoming's Answer to Militarism,"

MYSTERY SURROUNDS
ORIGIN OF NEW SONG

California has song mystery.
Within the past few weeks al a num-
Der of the cafes a song that has never
been sung on any stage has crept into
the repertoires of the cabaret singers
and 1t is making a terrific hit.
1t is called Ire You Half The Man
Your Mother Thought You'd Be?" and
II has punch to 1t that makes every
body sit up and listen. Who the au-
thors are is not known. The song is
not on sale anywhere, and the result
is that the cabaret singers who have
learned II from each other have been
reaping a ."aN harvest writing the
words and music as best they can for
admirers of the song 10 take home and

1t is said that some unfortunate
song writer let the song get out. before
making any arrangements for its pub
lication. Its wonderful popularity in
San Francisco is duplicated in num-
Der of the western coast cities.
well known psychologist who
heard the song sung recently said that
there is an appeal in the title of it
that will make it one of the greatest
