N king VOLUNTEERS FOR EMERGENCY

That military training is to become
part OF the curriculi of the larger
schools is forecasted by conferences
between officials of the war depart
ment and leaders and executives of a
number of the larger univ ersties. In
dications are that system will be
evolved and agreed upon which in re-
suits should within IA few years create
emergencies. Among these will be
many fitted for officers probably a suf-
hcient number to sub officer the levey
when it should be called out.
In the public schools the military
training movement is one looking for
ward TO d training much needed by a
growing number Of high school stu
dents from q disciplinary viewpoint
Moreover it will afford a more complete
outlet for the whole school than the
present athletic system which includes
in the athletic teams but few of those
who seek 10 make the team" And
while doing SO will not only teach pa
tTiotism but fit thousands and hundreds
OF thousands of school boys to defend
thenr country and institutions upon
emergency when the emergency is most
acute.
II is the best way out, the American
way. A great standing army and a
system of militarism built upon Euro
peon foundations DO not appeal to the
American spirit. But sensible training
in youth that will familiarize with
arms and the use of arms when danger
threatens is entirely in accord with
the highest type OF Americanism and
American ideals.
We night our wars with volunteer
soldiers. The movement for military
training IS simply sensible and pre-
cautionary step toward making eff
cient volunteers.
