The public installation of officers
of the 0. E. S. which took place last
night at Masonic Temple was wit
ressed by large crowd of members
and friends of the order. This is

mony of the year. Mrs. lone Camp

the installing officer, and she did her
part in a most dignified and worthy

grant marshal and the marching and
exercises were perfect and beautiful.
The program was i'll the following or
der: The new officers marched in,
each bearing small silk flag, which
they laid on the altar. after they
took their place. The beautiful

Guards was brought in by Charles
E. Scott and John kepley and J. R.
Ford acted as guards. All the men
were in their soldier uniforms. The
officers saluted the flag and all
joined together in singing "The Star
Spangled Banner" Then the flag
was taken to Somewhere in the
East" Mrs. T. L. Doherty then gave
a beautiful poem. 'To the Flag"
This patriotic part of the program
was very beautiful and impressive
feature. The installation then took
place and the following officers will
conduct the affairs of the order for
the coming year: Worthy matron, Nj
ma Luckett; worthy patron, E. R. ST.

 The living conditions in the Army are just what most vigorous men need for their physical well-being. Every day brings an ample amount of eX- ercise, fresh air, and good food. Yours will be a very unusual case if you do not find yourself after a few months stronger, healthier, and more buoyant than you have ever been in your life.
 It is true, on the other hand, that extreme exertion in marching, or m fighting, may in time be called for But this will not be until you are thoroughly trained and tit The pc riodS of strain or exposure will prob ably be short and are not likely m themselves to do you any real harm At any rate, you owe it to yourSelt- and, what is more, you owe 1t to the country-to make yourself "Et' at the earliest possible moment. Sick men can not do much toward winning this war. In the Army they are not only a loss, but during their sickness a pos itive handicap.
 There are few simple, common sense rules to follow, which are very briefly summed up in this lesson.
 Everything you eat will be carefully inspected by the officers in charge of htat duty. You wil have plenty Of fresh meat, bread, potatoes, and other vegetables, and other simple and nourishing food. AS a general rule, you should eat nothing not supplied in your company mess. Especially avoid green or over-ripe fruit and the inferior "sOft drinks" which will be put before you in shops and by ped dlers outside the camp limits.
 Your chief care in connection with food will be to chew it thoroughly ana eat it slowly. Don't drink excessive quantities of water, tea, or coffee with vour meals: this is rather a common fault among soldiers.
 Avoid needless exposure. You may be often called upon in the line oi duty to march through mud and ram. So iong as you are actively on the move it will probably do no harm. As soon as you are off duty, however take proper care of yourself. Give your self a rub down and if possible bathe vour feet and change your clothing. Use a little extra care to protect your belly from getting chilled; it may save you some annoying attacks of cramps and diarrhea.
 If you come in from exercise or drill sweating freely, try to cool off grad
The Seward gateway and the Alaska evening post., 1917-09-01

ually instead of allowing yourself to get chilled. Even in hot weather throw light coat or wrap over your self for few minutes.
 One of the most important rules of all is to be careful about drinking water not provided in camp or rec commended to you by medical or com pany officers. If pure water IS not at hand, it is better to drink boiled water or weak coffee or tea. Boiling kills the disease germs.
 If you are in the habit of using to- bacco, be moderate, especially while YOU are onthe march or just before taking strenuous exercise Your smoke will do less harm and at the same time will be much more enjoyable, if YOU wait till you can sit down quiet ly during one of the periods of rest.
 Eight hours of each day are set aside for sleep. This is ample, but not too much for most men Even If you can't sleep for any reason, lie still and get a good rest during those hours.
 The medical officer will be ready to do everything he can to keep you well. Don't hesitate to report to him if you need any attention, even for slight ailments. Every day at sick call' any soldier who is not feeling well may ask for medical treatment.
 1t is frequently assumed by well meaning critics that illicit sexual in tercourse and venereal diseases are more common in the Army than in civil life. This is probably mistak- en impression, due largely to the fact that statistics of these diseases are collected in the Army, whereas the corresponding figures for civilian life are incomplete. In the new Army the evils of sexual immortality will be re duced to a minimum. The men will find their time and energy so fully occupied that they will have fewer temptations and dangers of this type than in everyday civil life.
 One of your obligations as a citizen soldier is to conduct yourself in such a way as to create and spread the true impression-namely, that the National Army is made up of men too much in earnest in the great task assigned to them to indulge in lewdneSS and vice.
 The only sure safeguard against venereaI disease is to avoid illicit in- tercourse. A clean life is the best guarantee of sound health. To main tain a clean life, keep away from those things which tend to promote sexual excitement and desire, partic- ularly obscene conversation, reading matter, and pictures.
 The moral reasons which should inn pei every self-respecting man to avoid debasing himself by sexual vice are
