merely of you, but of every man in the army. It is required of officers by their superiors with fully as much strictness as it is required of you. lt will become your duty, whenever you are given authority over other men, tC demand from them the same full measure of obedience that others vii require of you.
 Discipline is not only essential ir developing tn earmy, but also in de veloping your own character as a sol dier. "The soldier who is by nature brave, will by discipline become braver."
 Physical Fitness
 The third basic quality, physical fit. ness, is so essential that large part of the time devoted to your training will be spent in building it up. Phys, cal fitness includes not only muscular development but good health and en' durance as we'll. It is a quality whicf every man who passes the physica examinations can develop in himself by reasonable care and by obedience to instructions. This is a subject more fully discussed in later lesson.

LESSON NO. ?

MAKING GOOD AS A SOLDIER. Preceding Lesson: 1. Your Post of
 of Honor.)
 The National Army, in which you are to take your place truly expresses the American character and ideals. 1t is a great democratic army. It in- cludes men of all degrees of wealth and education, chosen through far and open selection by lot. All are brought together on terms of equal ity. There has been and there will be in this great National Army no favoritism and no "pull." The poor man will drill side by side with the man who has been raised in luxury. Each will learn from the other. The place each man makes for himself will be determined by his own work and ability.
 Developing SOldierly Qualities
 The question as to whether it IS bet ter to join the colors now or with a later contingent is not worth arguing, since the decision has been made for each man by lot. An ambitious man, however, will be glad to join now 1t gives him a better chance for promo tion. The commissioned officers of the first contingent are picked men who have voluntarily gone through the hardest kind of training. The officers of later contingentS will be drawn largely from the men enlisted in the first contingentS. There is plenty of opportunity here for every man to use his brains and his energy and to earn promotion according to his worth. This does not mean easy or quick advance ment. It means only that you will have your fair chance-and you would ask for nothing more-to develop yourself and to climb upward step by step.
 In order to make good in the Ma tional Army you must, first or all, ht yourself to carry with credit the sim pie title of American Citizen-Soldier" -one of the proudest titles in the world. This means that you must de- velop in yourself the qualities of a soldier. The more quickly and thor oughly you cultivate them, the greater will be your satisfaction and success.
 There is very little real difference of opinion as to soldierly qualities. They have been determined by ages of experience. Weapons change, but the soldiers who handle the weapons remain much the same.
 Three Basic Qualities
 There are three basic qualities, without which no man can be a real soldier even though he may tempo rarily wear a uniform. They are:
 Loyalty,
 Obedience,
 Physical Fitness.
 A man without these qualities is in

the way and is source of weakness to an army, both in the camp and on the field of battle.
 The Articles of War of the Onited States set forth the military crimes which are punishable by heavy penal ties. Among these crimes are deser- ton, cowardice, insubordination, drum kenness while on duty, sleeping while on duty as a sentinel, disclosing the watchword, and giving aid or comfort to the enemy. Run over this list and you will see that every one of these military crimes can result only from the absence of one or more of the three basic qualities of soldier.
 Loyalty
 A soldiers loyalty governs, first of all, his feelings and actions toward his country, his government and his flag There can be no such thing as half way loyalty. The slightest compro, mise opens the door to treason.
 But a soldiers loyalty does not stoE here. It governs also his feelings anC actions toward the army and toward all the officers under whom he serves It absolutely forbidS disobedience among both officers and enlisted men or disreSpect toward those in author ity.
 Going a step farther, loyalty gov erns also soldiers feelings and ac- tions toward his own regiment, his own company and his own squad Without this form of loyalty there car be no real comradeship; without it you will never feel that personal pride anC satisfaction in the service which should mean so much in your army life.
 Obedience
 The second of the soldiers basic qualities is obedience, based on dis cipline. Without obedience and dis. cipline an army can not long continue to exist; it will quickly degenerate into an armed mob. As the Infantry Drill Regulations put it, discipline is "the distinguishing mark of trained troops"
 Frequently the recruit, with his in- born dislike of being boSsed, makes the mistake during his first few weeks in the army of resenting the fact that immediate and unqueStioning obedi- ence is required of him. He quickly learns, however, that obedience en- forced throughout the army is in all situations the chief safeguard of the rights, the comfort and the safety of every man, from the raw recruit to the commanding general. It is a guar antee that the small number of un- ruly or cowardly men to be found in every group shall be kept in check and forced to comply with rules made for the benefit of all.
 Military discipline is always imper- sonal. Obedience is required not
