der. 3. Nine Qualities of Soldier.
4. Getting Ready for Camp. g. First
Days in Camp. Q. Cleanliness In
Camp. 7. Your Health, 8. March
ing and Care of Feet 3. Your
Equipment and Arms, 10. Recrea-
ton in Camp. II. Playing the
Camel
So far in this course we have been
taking up some of the problems which
each soldier has to face and solve for
himself; two to adjust himself as
quickly as possible to the routine OF
camp life; how to keep himself and
all his belongings clean in spite OF
the difficulties in the way; how to
look after his own health and COM
fort; how to take care Of arms and
equipment as well as benefit, out OF
Army life.
If the course were to stop just at
this point, it might leave in your mind
a false impression. For after all, the
soldier is not an individual player in
the great game of war; he is valuable
chiefly as a member of team. 1t is
a team of enormous size 1t is Or
ganized in rather a complicated way
This team we call the Army
Your Army life will be more inter-
esting il you know in a general way
how the team is organized. This viii
enable you to see more clearly where
you fit in and what is expected OF
you.
If you have been working for q
business concern, you are already ia
miliar with many of the elements Of
Army organization. You have beer
in touch with the same things under
different names.
Need For Teamwork
In factory or store or office =
wherever large numbers of people are
working together there Is along
always some one in direct charge Of
each group of workers. This person
may be called foreman in the shop, 6
chief clerk in an office, floor walker
in department store, or by any one
of number of other titles; In the
Army we call him a corporal or ser
geant Going up step, you know
that in every large concern there arr
numerous officers who take charge o.
various departments of the business
such as the superintendent, the traf
flee manager, the advertising manager
the vice president, and so OIL; in the
Army we call the men in correspond
ing positions captains, majors, colo
nels, and general. Finally, you have
at the top of the business concern 6
president or a general manager who
directs everything; in the Army he Ii
a commanding general.

1870 TON COAL WAVE,

The Coal wave has passed for
spell. An injunction is threaten
ed against the city selling any
more coal to Commissioner l.. F.
VIllermin, to be resold to the peo
pie and tax payers of this city al
$685. One OF the contentious o1
the eDjoiners is that the city is
looser 10y selling all lump coal Cd q
m argin Of 75c per ton above The
price 1t pays for mine Iun plus
cha rges. The Government con
troll bas fixed s. 10 as the prizes
tor coal at the mine for "mine rum
aud So 80 for all lump" This is
Ia margin OF only % cents per tor
for all lump, while Mr.. VillermiI
paid the city Is cents above al
costs. The contention, therefore
of loss on this score is hardly ten
able.
The contention, however, thar
the city is not warranted by its
charter III engaging i'll the selling
of coat, is better founded. There
seems to be no authority for the
city so engaging The cbarte,
provides that the city alone shall
sell water, light, and electric
power. 4 very few strokes of the
pen could De made to include
"heat," or coal. 1t would be JUS

ment or abridgment.

piled 1870 tons of coal to citizens
of this city for home use only, and
has on hand considerable nun
Der of untitled orders, TO say moth
ing of disappointed wonld-be buy
ers from various parts Of the par
lsh. vould indicate that there Is a
considerable demand for more
moderate price fuel than SO te
s12 90 per ton. The news of Mr.
Nillermin's course IN this matte,
was never heralded-it merely
transpired, as 1T were-and th,
orders Game rolling In. Had it
been his intention to supply Goa
to the pubic of this city and had
it been announced before many
bins were stocked with higher
priced coal, bis orders would have
more than doubled the 13O tons.
1t should be stated that Mr..
ViIlermin gained no profit by his
op slations in coal. The city got
margin of 75c per ton on all coal
he sold. The man who delivered
the coal got so cents per ton 70,
the hauling aud Mr.. Ii. Fl Win
ters got 10 cents per ton for weigh
ing. When the coal interests
waged a war upon the Commits
sioner for "selllng coal without
paying a lcense," .he promptly
accepted the gauge of battle
and paid his license out Of his
own pocket, feeling that he would
be doing proper thing in assist
ing to double The supply of coal

KNIGHT PURCHASES
 MOHAVE LAUNDRY
From Tuesdays Daily NIiner)

An important business transfer was made yesterday through the agency of the Mohave Securities company. The Mohave Steam laundry which was founded fourteen months ago by W. J. Johnson passed from MT. Johnson's control to J. Harry Knight who will begin immediate improvements and enlargement of the business. The bus mess is an especially prosperous one and a real asset to Kingman and Mo hace county and ranks as one of the advance steps in the upbuilding and growth of the town. Mir. Johnson from a very small beginning, develop ed business that outgrew its capacity several times and in order to care for the constantly increasing trade he ad- ded new machinery and threw out the old that had proven inadequate for the demands. The laundry is now better equipped than many such institutions in towns many times the size of King man.
 Mir. Johnson will remain in the em- ploy of MT. Knight for the present.
