WHY SOLDIERS MUST BE FLEx.
IBLE IN MOVEMENT.

Any body of troops must be flexible
sary at any instant to change Its pur-
pose or direction. While such body
without well-defined rules, would be
most cumbersome and unwieldy-if
not impossible-to handle, 1t must, in
fact, respond to commands more quick
ly and precisely than a boat to its
rudder, or an automobile to its wheel.
A column of troops must not only
learn to turn at an exact right angle,
but, with equal CELEBRITY, 1t must be
able to shift its movement In any spe-
Gifted direction, even to the exact re-
verse, without losing as much as
step.

When a company is In column Of

FORMER MAYOR FRANK v. EVANS,

.NNE of the latest additions to the

prominent men who have publicly In
dorsed Tanlac for the good 1t has done
them, is the name of Hon. Frank v.
Evans, former Mayor of Birmingham.
Mr.. Evans is one of the best known
men in public life In Alabama today
being at one time editor of one of the
South's greatest newspapers, the Bir-
mingham Age-Herald. He was also ex-
aminer of public accounts of Alabama.
In telling of the benefits he had de-
rived from Tanlac, Mr.. Evans said:
For years 1 suffered with gastrltis
and indigestion In the worst form.
was habitually constipated and had
pains In my shoulders and headache
continually. My appetite left me al
most entirely and everything I would
eat hurt me. Finally l got to having
awful attacks of acute indigestion, pal
pitation of the heart and smOthering
spells. For a long time 1 would have
one or more of these spells every night
and I would wake out of my restless
sleep gasping for breath.
II bought bottle of Tanlac and to
my surprise and qualification l began
to feel relief after the first few doses.
1 kept taking the medicine and now my
recovery Is simply the talk Of Birming-

She was not very much interested In
the war prior to her appointment

There Is small use In being taught
how to march II the soldier does not
know how to start. Knowing how to
start is not only important-it is
fundamental. The whole unity and
smoothness of group movement de-
ponds upon whether 1t has had pre-
else beginning. Otherwise, 1t is ragged.
Otherwise, 1t may be completely
spoiled while individuals are bobbing
along, trying to pick up the stride.
Otherwise, also, fond mothers Gas In
the ancient story which has been hand
ed down, perhaps, from the Mace
DOMAIN Phalanx) may exclaim, "Look
-look-everybody's out of step with
Johnnie I"
Knowing how to stop-to halt-is
fully as important, If a movement is
to have a trim and military finish. In
some respects, 1t is even more so. since
a loose, slack movement with a snappy
conclusion may leave better impress
sion than a well-conducted effort which
slumps down at the end and expires.
Just as all individual movements must
be exact In order to form the essential
habit of military precision, so all
group movements must depend upon
the degree of exactness In the individ-
ual.
Whether a movement, well started,
may be carried to a successful and
precise termination rests upon cadence.
The extent to which the new soldier
may be assimilated into a military unit
Is governed by the measure In which
he is able to fit his steps and move
ments to the accepted cadence. This,
for marching at quick time, parades
and the manual of arms, is at the rate
of 120 steps-or beats-a minute.
Learn then to perform all movements
not otherwise specified at the rate of
two counts second. After this, the
new soldier will find that he can be
shifted from one unit to another with
out a hitch.
Marches start from the position of
attention. At the command forward"
the weight of the body is shifted to the
right leg, but the left knee must be
kept straight, and there must be no
visible evidence of the transfer. "For-
ward" is a preparatory command, and
its difference from march," the COM
mand of execution, will be explained
in a later article. AT march," the left
foot-always the left foot-is moved
smartly forward for the regulation
step of 80 inches. The sole remains
near the ground and it is planted
without a shock. There is no such
contortion as the goose step In the
United States army.
The command company (squad)
halt" is given as either foot strikes
the ground-which foot Is governed
by the line on which the halt Is to be
made. If 1t is the left foot which
strikes the ground when the command
halt" is given, the right foot will
still be planted 30 inches ahead in
marching. The left foot will then be
raised and placed beside the right
foot. This completes the halt.
To "mark time" the feet are raised
alternately, and in cadence, about two
inches from the floor and replaced in
the same spot. This Is continued I'M
til a further command-either "For-
ward march" or halt" is given. The
former is given as the right foot strikes
the ground, so that the soldier starts
off again with the left foot. "Mark
time" is a command that holds a
marching soldier in his tracks, so to
speak, In marching cadence.
