TOO TALL AND HIN.

II Is predicted that nearly 1900 OF the
Kentucky guardsmen now encamped al
Fort Thomas will not be mustered into
service because OF failure to pass the
physical examination required by the
War Department While the Kentucky
soldier boys are failing to meet the
standards set by the Federal authori-
ties for service in the army. and while
a heavy expense is being saddled on
the Government by taking these men
up TO Fort Thomas and then sending
them back after a week or two. we are
inclined to find more fault with the
policy OF the War Department. than
with the physical fitness OF Kentucky
men.
The chief reason for chopp ng Ken
tucky's three regiments into bits is
that Kentuckians are found to be too
thin for their height Kentuckians were
just as thin and just as tall during the
Civil War and we can find no author
ity who cares 10 opine that Kentuck-
ians failed to stand up under the stress
