MODERN FABLES
The Chick and the Duckling

Now you must know that there lived in

toes which were very useful for scratching.
while the Ducklng had webs between his
toes which were very useful when he swan

Well, to make long story short, II
may be said that the Whitehead tor

small reciprocating engines, and In
due course the Yankee experts came
to believe that this propulsive force
was not ideal and so gradually they
evolved their present pride whicl, is
known as the turbine torpedo. witch

spect. More than Il quarter OF mil
lion dollars has already been expend-
ed upon building for the Navy's tor
pede plant along with 80,eee for ma
chinery and II is proposed to spend
an additional 100000 for machin-
cry with view 10 increasing output
which is distinctly a matter of conse-
quence seeing as how 1t takes at least
a year to turn around on a torpedo
order.
There is ample reason why Uncle
Sam should go the limit In building
his own torpedoes because the Gov
eminent builds torpedoes cheaper
than II can buy them and inasmuch
as each one OF the big torpedoes costs
exactly sS.375. II follows that any
economies In this direction will be

Soldiers Not Made In A Day.
The making of n soldier is not the
work OF a day or month but OF sew
eral months and embraces so many
things to be learned ard avoided that
the present trouble with Mexico will
bring this home to our people and
create a public sentiment against the
repetition of our present state of un-

join the parade and the militia Men
of other companies went about the
streets In decorated automobiles bear
ing such signs as BE a man. do your
duty to your country and enlist now!",
Hop in and Join our Company" etc.
AT the Armortes the recruits were ex-
amined one after another and sworn
in. Out In the main room the rockies
were drilled and for days the tramp
of feet was heard as the men were put
through military movements. While
the camps were being made ready
many OF the men slept in the armories
and were fed there as well. The
streets of the smaller towns took on a
military air as the boys in khaki
walked about and many young men
caught the spirit OF patriotism and
enlistments resulted. In nearly every
pert of the country II was found that
the regiments which drew their mem
bers from the rural districts were
much nearer to their full strength
than those of the cities. consequently
the country boys were the first to go
into camp.
War brides were numerous, and in
a number OF instances the brides have

10000 pounds of dried fish: $4,000
pounds of onions and 10000 dozens of
eggs. There is q field bakery in camp
which turns out fifteen thousand
loaves OF bread per day. In many OF
the other State camps the bread Is
supplied from the outside. About
$500 horses and mules are necessary
to bring the New York regiments up
to the required equipment.
All over the country the same
scenes are being enacted-the engt-
neer corps at work on camp sites, the
Quartermaster looking after the food
supply. the surgeon giving the typhoid
incubation 10 the men and looking
after the sanitary condition of the
camps. The quality of the food Is of
the best, especially the meat, for the
Quartermasters of the National Guard
are determined that there shall be no
repetition of the beef scandal of the
Spanish American War.
Recruiting.
The work OF recruiting has been
carried out with much enthusiasm by
the members of the companies of the
different regiments who have used all
sorts of ways to get men into their
companies. Recruiting stations were
established on street corners. regi-

certain "errors" are allowed for in
torpedo firing. In a lateral direction
there Is per nitted the liberal error OF
IS yards either way because 1t does
not SO very much matter whether a
torpedo strikes a ship forward or aft,
but when II comes to perpendicular
errors the margin Is narrow, a scant
two feet. The up-and-down error of
a torpedo can be made so slight be-
cause OF the very ingenious mechanism
which steers the torpedo vertically by
the pressure OF the water. II has
been demonstrated by repeated tests
that when a torpedo Is set before mr.
ing for given depth,--2o feet when
sent against battleship and or 8
feet when intended for a destroyer
1t will keep within l. foot two Of
that depth throughout it's journey TO
its shining mark.
The uncanny effectiveness of the
latter-day Yankee torpedo Is due in
no small measure to the gyroscope, a
device which can perform the miracle

TO Remember the Maine" has our
National Guard been put to the test of
getting ready for actual service.
When in answer to Carranza's demand
that our troops be withdrawn from
Mexico. President Wilson's answer
was the calling out of the State
militia, the task of mobilization began
at once. Few of the regiments were
up to the required number and the
work of recruiting went on, while the
Quartermaster OF each State and his
STAFF were engaged in securing proper
plats OF ground to be used for camp
purposes.
Sanitary Camps.
The next move was to arrange for
proper sanitation. This took time and
labor for the land had to be cleared
and bitches dug for drainage, camp
streets laid out as well as arrange
ments made for the burning OF all
refuse so as TO keep out flies which are
the dangerous disease carriers of a
camp. While the typhoid incubation
has practically freed the men from
i the scourge of this fever there are
| other diseases which may ravage an
army unless the sanitation Is carefully
guarded.
Pure water. too. is a requisite which
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1916-07-16

must not be overlooked, and during
the present mobilization water has
been piped from the reservoirs OF the
towns nearest the camps. In some
instances the driving of wells and the
erection of tanks had to be resorted
to after which the water was piped
through the camps for distribution.
Some idea of what the capacity of
the water supply must be can be OBJ
tanned from the fact that in the case
of New York with its sixteen to eight
cen thousand troops 5000 gallons OF
water Is required each day to supply
the wants of the men and horses. To
mobilize a force of this strength means
the establishment of a camp on the
basis of model town.
Food Supply.
The food supply for the New York
National Guard, which was modified
at Beekman. New York. is contracted
for and covers a supply for two weeks
only at a time How the Empire
State regiments are fed Is shown by
the Quartermaster's contract list,
which is as follows: rs tons of beef:
100 tons of -four; rs tons of potatoes
TN tons of sugar; 20 tons of bacon;
20 tons of ham; Is tons of mutton;
