experience, poise and judgment than
younger officers, were physically in
capable of performing their grueling
duties on the firing lines.
Old men. were replaced by younger
men who could stand the hardships
of their soldiers in trench warfare.
According to the war department,
nearly every French brigadier is
thirty-fiVe or younger. Many divis-
ions and corps commanders are I'm,
der forty.
The British army had a similar eX-
perience. Most English officers in
command of large units in France
are now young men. Information
is not obtainable concerning the Ger
man practice.
May Be Exceptions.
While the war department proba.
bly, will follow Pershings suggestions
generally, there may be exceptions
in the cases of especially talented
officers, especially in the regular ar.
my. In the national guard and the
national army, these exceptions prob
ably will be infrequcnt.
One result of this policy might be
that many regiments would go to
France commanded by majors and
lieutenant colonies, and even by cap
tains. While regimental command
ers above forty-fve might not be sent
to Europe, they cannot be retired al
that age.

At the Strand.

The Narrow Trail" with William 5.
Hart in the leading role. is the cur
rent offering at the strand, The story
is by the famous interpreter OF the
wild west himself, who built 1t around
a series Of narratives told him by
friend of the early pioneer days, 1t
is a typical Hart picture of wild out
of-door life. filled with wondrous pic
lures Of the great west, ana throboing
with tense Incidents and thrilling adj
ventures.
In The Narrow Trail" Hart portrays
an outlaw who falls under the influence
of beautiful girl. He loves her with
all the desperate passion of which his
wild nature is capable. and determines
to reform. In doing this his source OF
income is naturally shut off, and he IS
i'll trying straits for ready cash. Just
at this crisis a big roundup is to be
held in n nearby city. \ cash prize is
offered for the principa! event, and the
outlaw determines to enter himself and
his pinto pony. In doing so he knows
he stalking tremendous risk. as the
peculiarly marked pony is known to the
sheriff and his deputies, but goaded
by necessity, he takes chance, wins
the race. collects the purse and escapes
with the girl to the mountains. It is
during this wild ride that the excite
ment rises TO its highest pitch.
Hart is supported by Miss Sylvia
Bremen. the Australian actress. and a
cast of well-known players which in
cludes Milton Ross and Robert Kort-
man.
