TURNING THE SQUAD.

When n squad is marching In line.
there are two ways of turning it-on
a moving or on u fixed pivot.
The squad is turned on a moving
pivot when 1t is marching as a sepa-
rate unit or when, in II column of
squads, the command column right
(left)" is given. The moving pivot, in
which the pivot man on the front rank
advances ut the half-step of Il inches
until the line Is abreast of him, is de-
signed to turn IL column precisely but
with the least loss Of Roadway.
A fixed pivot, squads right (left)."
turns each squad in It's place on the
designated base. right or left, and IL
u movement which bears important re-
lution to every other squad in the col
umn, For II the forward movement
is not entirely checked by the pivot
mans turning and marking time In his
tracks, the whole company will be
thrown out of alignment.
Being in line, the squad executes
the command Fright (left) turn
MARCH" as follows:
At march" the pivot mar (No. ~
Of the front rank faces to the right,
taking first the full step Of 30 inches,
In order to clear the space directly
behind him, and then advances at the
half-step while the other men Of the
rank oblique to the right until opposite
their places In line. Each then X
cutes a second right oblique. and on
arriving abreast Of the pivot man,
takes the half-Step until the last man
In the rank arrives on the line, when
all proceed ut the full step.
TO turn the squad on n fixed pivot,
the command 'Squad right (left) -.
MARCH!" Is given. At march," the
right man (No. y In the front rank
faces to the right and marks time. The
other front-rank men, ~obliquing to the
| right, place themselves abreast Of the
pivot man and also mark time. In the
rear rank, No. 3, that is. the third
man from the right, moves straight to
the front until he is 40 inches in the
rear of his front-rank nan He then
faces to the front and marks time. The
second and first men Of the renr rank
follow No. 3 in column until they also
are directly behind their front-rank

then faces to the front and steps up
abreast Of No. 8. As the last man ar.
rIves in his placer, when perform.
ing the movement by numbers, Mt the
sixth count after the command IL
given-bOth ranks execute forward

Squad right (left)' is a much.
used and important movement that re.
quIres much practice for proper exc
cution, especially by the rear-rank
men, who too often undertake to
scramble into position. The pivot man
also must be extremely careful to turn
in his tracks and not to take ground,
I'M admonltion easily comprehended,
but frequently neglected In execution.
The pivot man and the rear-rank men
have It in their power to make OF
spoil this movement. which. improperly
executed, will disrupt and d~isarranga

Movies to Show Work in France.

Movies to Show Work in France.
y Movie fans among Omaha's society
folk are anticipating the production Of
athe American ambulance field service
film at Boyd's theatcr Saturday even
sing Of next week. Everywhere the
film has gone it has been sponsored
oy a committee Of prominent people,
who have had charge of the presen-
iation of the pictures. In Omaha the
Colonial Danes, OF whom Mrs, Ar.
thur Crittenden Smith is president,
are sponsors. Mrs. Lowrie Childs
is taking active charge OF arrange
ments and Mrs. Edgar Morsman is
head of the ticket committee.
D.. When this same film was shown in
Newport at the Vincent Astor home
Mrs. Childs says that the polo con-
test, the tennis finals and dozens OF
other things of vital interest to peo-
pic at the gay watering place were
,lorsaken for the time being because
OF the intense interest which was felt
III the picture. Many of the mothers
and fathers in the audience saw their
own sons lined up in front of the lit
tie ambulances, for sons of many
sprominent American families are sup
porting themselves in the work.
Al The pictures were taken by the
French government within a stones
throw Of actual hand-to- hand fight
ing. The government presented them
to the American field service in ap-
probation for what it has done for
France. Then the moving picture
committee of the American ambu-
lance field service was formed in Or
der to show the pictures throughout
the United States. There are four
reels in the picture which is to be
shown here, entitled "Our American
Boys in the European War" The
first three reels deal with the Ameri-
can ambulance field service, showing
various sections of the service, and
the fourth reel deals within the Ameri-
can aviators in France known as the
Lafayette corps.
The film has additional interest to
Omahans because an ambulance
corps has been ordered formed here
and will soon be under way.

fused TO pay their fares unless given
a transfer, which occasioued eject

that he was elected unlawfuIiy on
the 18th OF August, 1915, and suffer
ed physical injury and modification
by reason OF the occurrence. The
company's defense was that they had
no right to use a transfer under the
ruling OF the Interstate Commerce
Commission approving a schedule do
ing away with transfers. and that
UPON refusal 10 pay q fare under
such circumstances, they had the
right TO eject q passenger.
Mr.. Blllops was represented by At

Sherisr and Amos crounse, and the
defendant company by Attorneys Will
