Fighting Fourth" viii Be
First to Go Into Service

When the call comes for the Ne
braska National Guard to begin active
service, the Fourth regiment will be
the first in the field, according to Col
onel Baehr of the Fighting Fourth" !"
In view of the fact that the men
OF the Fourth are better trained and
better organized than either of the
other two regiments, they will doubt
less be the first called into the serv-
ice. the colonel said.
The Fourth and Fifth regiments
served on the border, but the Fourth
at this time is much nearer the war
strength mark than the Fifth.
Colonel Baehr is now out in the
state inspecting the guard preparatory
tosmobilizing the three regiments in
Omaha.

There Is not that thing In the world

discipline. What need I instance7 He
that hath read with judgment Of ma
tions and commonwealth, Of cities
and camps, Of peace and war, sea ana

Of human occasions, are moved to ana
fro as ON the axle Of discipline. SO
that whatsoever power and sway IN
mortal things weaker men have attrib-
uted to fortune, I burst with more
confidence ascrihe either to the vigor
or the slackness Of discipline. And
certainly discipline is not only the re-
moyal Of disorder -. but the very
visible shape and image OF virtue
whereby she is not only seen IN
the. regular gestures and motions OF
her heavenly PAGES as she walks, but
also makes the harmony Of her voice
audible to mortal ears.-Milton.
