is after all only a campfire soldier.

SELF RELIANCE.
Self-reiiauce is characteristic Of

as soldier or in some civil occupa-
ton. Much the same quality is
sometimes referred 20 as "initia-
tive" II is a quality needed more
than ever before M present-day

Wood in his Introduction 10 the

MAKING YOURSELF STRONGER.
The nine qualities which have
just been reviewed are those which
everyone Of us would like TO have
for himself They are the essentials
Of verile and successful manhood.

Of them 20 a greater or less extent

The three basic qualities LOYALTY

treated in the preceding lesson.
There IS another group OF three sol
dierly qualities that are especially
needed during the period of train
ing. marching and waiting between
com bats. They are.
Intelligence.
Cleanliness.
Cheerfulness.
Although these qualities are asso-
cisted chiefly with camp life. they
are, Of course. scarcely less help
ful in all other phases OF military
service.
INTELLIGENCE.
Intelligence does not necessarily
mean education. but rather quick
observation and willingness 10 learn.
There Is plenty Of need for intel
igence in modern warfare. The ma
tiOnal army will be forced 10 alb

ing which would ordinarily extend
over a period Of two or three wears.
Those who intend 90 ft themselves
for promotion should study thor

regulations which affect their duties
In time they should learn some
thing about map-making and map
reading the construction Of field en-
trenchments. training and care Of
horses. signalling. the handling Of
complex pieces OF machinery. and
many other subjects.
Any practical knowledge that YOU
may now possess will surely be use
ful and helpful 10 YOU in the army
Capt. Ian Hay Beth OF the English
army points out that in the first
British forces OF the present war
the previous trade and training Of
every soldier was sooner or later
utilized.
CLEANLINESS
Cleanliness is important every
where, but most Of all in the army
where large bodies of men are
brought together. In its true sense.
II includes not only keeping the
body clean, but also your mind and
your actions Fortunately. il is a
virtue in which Americans generally
rank high. There should be little
difficulty in setting a satisfactory
standard in the new army This is
a subject more fully treated later
in this course.
