The Right Spirit

J. Ogden Armour, head of the big Chicago
packing plant, after attending war supply con-
ference early in the week, returned home yester-
day. Asked what he thought about the draft
and the general war situation, Armour expressed
a sentiment which every American ought to take
to heart.
"I'll tell you what I think Of it," said Mr..
Armour. 'The government of the United States
can have Armour & Co.
"The government of the United States can
have j. Ogden Armour.
'The government of the United States can
have any one man or any group OF men of Arm
our & Co.
There will be no requests for exemptions.
Where man is irreplaceable the government will
be 80 notified and it can take its choice of where
it wishes him to serve.
whether it is patriotism or selfishness that
moves each of us counts little in the outcome.
Many of us may not realize it, but as nation and
as free men we have staked all and we shall win
or lose all
That's what think about the situation ="

Careless Use of
Soap Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless) and is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will clean
the scalp and hair thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
it in. It makes an abundance of rich.
creamy lather. which rinses out easily.
removing every particle of dust, dirt.
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and 1t leaves
the scalp soft. and the hair fine and
silkys bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
few ounces will supply every mem
Der of the family for months. adv.

u. S. Troops in Russia

Charles E. Russell, who was in Russia with
the Root mission, believes that American troops
ought to be placed in the Russian line. He be-
lieves that the Russian republic has come to stay
and that the Muscovite army, strengthened by
American troops and inspired by their presence,
will not prove traitors and expose our soldiers to
destruction from German guns.
He has an abiding faith in the Russian peo-
pie and their ability to demonstrate to the world
that in essence they are brave people who can
make heroic sacrifices to attain victory
His attitude is best expressed in his own
statement:
do you think it would be safe to put an
American army into a battle line with Russian
troops that may at any moment retreat and
abandon our men to their destruction ?" he was
asked.
Safe? Why OF. course, it would absolutely be
SAFE 1t would be one of those things that insure
themselves. The presence of American troops on
that battle line would make it impossible for any
Russian troops to retreat even if they wished to,
which they positively would not But when you
come to that, there is far more danger from the
United States today, as the case stands, than
there is from Russia. I say to you deliberately
that the of the Allies stands in greater peril
of defeat from the United States than it does
from the people of Russia"

10. Entire body-weight of body
resting equally upon the heels and
balls of the feet.
Note especially that you are not re.
CURED to stand in a strained attitude
You are to be alert but not tense.
One OF the very best things you can
do today is to spend fifteen minutes
practicing this position, getting it
right. Keep this up every day until
you report at camp. In the army, as
in every day life, first impressions are
important The first impression you
make on your officers and fellows will
depend, more than you probably
realeize, on the manner in which you
stand and walk.
Making Yourself Git" -.
II you can devote part of your time
to physical exercise you are fortunate
and should by all means take advan.
tage of every opportunity. Climbing,
jumping, gymnastic exercises, all
kinds Of competitive games, swim
ming, JOWluS, UOAiuS, WIoSLtlIlS, duU
running, are all recommended as ex-
cellent methods of developing the
skill, strength, endurance, grace, cour-
age, and self-reliance that every SOL
der needs.
There are some simple rules of eat
ing and living which all of us should
follow regularly. They will be espe-
cially helpful to you If you put them
into practice in preparing for camp
life.
Perhaps the most important of these
rules is to use no alcohol of any kind.
If you have been in the habit of
smoking immoderately. cut down; get
your wind, your nerves and your di-
gestion into the best possible condi-
ton.
Eat and drink moderately. Chew
your food well. 1t is advisable. how
ever, to drink a great deal of cool mot
cold water between meals. Don't eat
between meals.
Keep away from soda fountains and
soft drink stands. Learn to enjoy
simple, nourishing food.
Accustom yourself to regular hours
for sleeping, eating and the morning
functions.
Don't take a last fling" 1t may
land you in the hospital. At the best,
1T will probably bring you into camp
in an unfit condition to take up your
new duties with profit and enjoyment.
There are strenuous days ahead of
you and it will be good sense on your
part to make reasonable preparation
for them.
Look Forward With Confidence.
You will find nothing required of
you in the army that is beyond the
powers Of the every day American. You
will see clearly ahead Of you, after you
lave read this course, the path which
you are to follow. Look forward with
confidence. Enter the service with the
firm determination OF doing your best
at all times, of playing square with
your superiors, your associates, and
yourself, and of taking care always of
your assigned duties whatever may
happen.
You will find that everyone else will
treat you with courtesy and fairness
for that is the inflexible rule Of the
army. Out Of that rule grows the com.
radeship and the attractiveness, even
in the face OF all dangers and hard
ships. that are Characteristic Of Ameri.
can army life.

Your real training for your duties as
& soldier will begin after you and your
comrades are assembled at the train
ing camps. However, there are a few
simple things you can do during the
next few weeks which will be Of decid-
ed value in getting you started along
the right lines.
The simplest thing, and perhaps the
most useful of all, is to begin at once
to practice correct habits of standing
and walking. Even in civilian life a

his vigor He can not have these traits
unless he carries himself like a SOL
der.
The Bearing Of Soldier.
Few people without military train.
ing have a correct idea of what is
meant by the position and the bearing
OF soldier. They are apt to imagine
that 1t means strut or an extremely
strained attitude. Or, more frequently.
they think that the term can properly
be applied to any erect position. The
truth OF the case, however. is that
there Is definite procedure to follow
In order to place yourself in what is
known in the army as the position of
a soldier" 1t Is the position which the
dismounted soldier always assumes at
the command Attention" except as it
may be slightly modified to enable him
to carry properly any arms he may
have in his hands

paragraph 81 of the Infantry Drill Reg
ulations, which gives the complete and
accurate description Of the position Of
the soldier. This paragraph is slightly
paraphrased and simplified in the de-
scription following Keep in mind
that there are ten elements which
must be properly adjusted to each 9TH

each one of them is properly placed.
