The nan was attired in the height of
fashion. He wore no ornament except
a small d~iscolored ring, pendant from
a silken watch ribbon crossing his
vest. His face was bronzed, his hands
SCARED and rough. With all of these
incongruities, it would have puzzled
even a skilled physiognomist to deter
mine his exact social and business
status.
He bore a thin package about the
size of an ordinary window pane, COW
cred with wrapping paper, under his
arm. Whoever or whatever he was,
he was seriously intent upon the bust
ness in hand. He stood with one foot
on a kitchen doorstep, his ear bent
within. Then he placed his package
carefully tilted against the house and
stole on tiptoe across the first room
beyond.
In the adjoining one a table was set
with three persons around 1t, a gray
haired old man, his gentle-faced wife
and a girl of about twenty, evidently
their daughter. At one side of the
table was a plate reversed, knife, fork
and spoon, cup and saucer and a nap
kin encircled by a silver band, and as
the eyes of the intruder noted this, he
fairly suppressed a great gasp and his
eyes moistened and his strong face
quivered.
Dear old folks" he breathed and
then off and down went his hat, his
head bowed reverently. The old man
was asking a blessing upon the homely
meal. The watcher stole across the
kitchen floor, noiselessly dropped into
the empty chair at the table and sat
there trembling and %expectant as the
old mans voice concluded the formal
grace with the earnest words:
"And bring back to US our dear
wandering boy"
And then the reverent heads were
lifted and old John Davis, his staring
eyes fixed upon the wandering boy re-

NEW METALS BEING SOUGHT
Manufacturers Looking for Substitutes
for Those Now Used Because of
Advance in Prices.

The recent advance in price of many
of the more commonly used metals has
led manufacturers to adopt or consider
the adoption of various substitute
metals or alloys for certain purposes.
The advice of the bureau of standards
has frequently been sought in this o n
neCtiOn. An interesting field of inves-
tigatiOn is opened up by such inquiries.
1t appears that the metals tradition
ally and currently used for various
articles are in many cases no better
adapted for the purpose than others,
and a slight difference in price would
warrant a substitution. 1t is not usu-
ally possible, however, to suggest sub
stitutes Offhand, as there are many
factors involving manufacturing pecu-
liarities, durability and other physical
and chemical properties that first have
to be determined. "There is" says the
bureau, "a very wide field of research
here, which would undoubtedly repay
MANIFOLD the efforts put upon it,

SPARROW in New Role.

An incident probably unique in the
annals of the stage vas witnessed by
q crowded house at the opera house
In Cape Town during a matinee. I'M
mediately the curtain rose on the gar
den scene in which a parrot and perch
are a feature, a sparrow flew down
from the dome of the theater onto the
stage and hoped and flew about quite
fearlessly, picking up the parrot food
and the ground rice (thrown In this
scene) at the feet of the astonlshed
actors, taking not the slightest notice
Of their movements, not even the dane
ing disturbing its equilibrium. When
the scene neared Its end the sparrow
flew up onto the front Of the dress cir
Gle and then disappeared In the dome,
Pie incident caused the greatest
amusement, both to the company and
to the audience-the latter being quite
under the impression that the sparrow
had been trained and was part of the
show.

BREAD AS ECONOMICAL FOOD
Home-5aked Variety Was Always
Good, Say Government Experts.

If hOme-baked bread were uniformly
well made, it would be used more ex-
tensively than at present in place of
more expensive foods, say specialists
in the United States department of
agriculture, and this would be Il dis
tinct economy. From the standpoint
of nutrition it makes very little differ
ence whether breadstuffs are served in
the form of bread or in the form of
breakfast cereals, side dishes with
meat, or desserts.
A man engaged in moderate muscu-
lar work can prOfitably consume about
three-fourths Of a pound a day of
breastuffs in any one Of these forms.
This quantity is the equivalent of one
pound of baked bread. AS a matter
of fact, however, it is not probable
that in the average family this guam
tity Is consumed and the deficiency is
made up by the use of more expensive
substances. OF course bread alone is
not sufficient for the maintenance of
health, but from both an economical
and a hygienlc point of view should be
used more extensively than it usually
Is, declare the experts.

unbelieving, at this apparent imme-

her supple body, her arms about his

sheer u~nrestrained joy. And then none

SELF HELPS for the
NEW SOLDIER
BY a United States Army Officer
THE SOLDIERS STEP AND ITS
IMPORTANCE.
Copyright, 1917, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Inc

AS soon as the young soldier has
learned to stand correctly he must
learn how to step and to walk. If he
does not learn how to walk, he will not
know how to march. If he does not
know how to march, he is of no more
use to a military organization than an
actual "tin soldier"
A soldier must learn how to step
that is, to walk-fOr two reasons: he
must learn how best to utilize and con-
serve his muscles, and how to conform
to group movements.
All a soldiers work is figured on a
basis of the normal mans capacity.
The normal mans capacity Is likewise
figured on the possibilities of the nat
ural-and normal-use of the muscles.
1t Is not founded upon the subnormal
or abnormal use of the muscles. The
readiest way to fit oneself to become a
soldier, therefore, is to teach the
cles to function correctly.
The normal step of the soldier is
thirty inches. That fact must be kept
in the mind until it grows there. Prac-
tice in marching will extend the step
of some to that length and reduce that
of others. If this standardization did
not take place-did not become habit
the step Of the long-legged soldiers
would invariably walk away from the
short-legged soldiers and pull the
whole line out of shape. This is what
always takes place with green troops.
The tall man strikes out at a swing
which keeps the short man on a trot.
And not only is the united endurance
reduced according to the proportion Of
short men in the company, but the tall
men cannot hold out with their equip
ment to nearly the same extent that
they could if they adopted the COM
pany stride. Uniform motion Is con-
tagiouS, and the stimulus impaired to
all helps to carry those for whom the
longer step might at first be an exer-
ton.
A man must not walk on his heels.
This throws his whole physique out Of
gear. 1t renders more difficult the
thirty-inch step. A mar must walk on
the balls Of his feet. He must bear
the weight of the body easily with him
not drag 1t along behind him. The
length of the step, thirty inches, is
measured from heel to heel and is TAX
en- at the rate of 100 a minute.
Thirty inches-remember! No good
soldier Eve steps, or marches, other
wise unless specifically commanded to
do so. Furthermore, the good soldier,
while marching in this the soldiers
basic, or normal step, is, except for the
swing of the legs and arms, in the po-
sition Of attention-described in a pre-
ceding article as the fundamental po-
sition of the soldier.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1917-07-06
THE SALUTE AND ITS s!eNlFI.
CANOE.

AS soon as the new soldier is able
to take his eyes off his feet and his
step, he sees that he is elbow to elbow
with other goldiers. He sees that he
belongs to an organization. He sees
that he has a definite place in that
organization. The more constantly
that he can be reminded of his place
In the organization, the more adequate
~ will he fill it. That is, the more adj
equately will he fill it if he is an alert,
intelligent American soldier.
The structure Of the organization,
when a unit is not drawn up at atten-
ton, Is instilled In his mind through
military hOnOrS and courtesies. This
is epitOmized in the salute. The sa-
lutte is not a symbol of inferiority, it
Is a simple reminder of the soldiers
place in the scheme Of the ~organiza-
ton. 1t is a reminder Of the authority
to which he must at all times be sub
ject, If there is to be discipline; and
it is a recognition of the source of
that authority.
Ihe soldier SaluteS commissioned Of
icers-from second lieutenant to gen.
eral. He does not salute nOncOmmis-
stoned officers-corporals and SER
geants. But he grants them defer
ence and obedience, nevertheless, in a
limited degree, which keeps the chain
of authority intact.
The salute not only is no symbol Of
inferiority, but is a privilege. Only a
soldier in good standing is entitled to
salute his officers and to receive the
officers acknowledgment in return. A
soldier under arrest cannot salute.
The salute is performed at present
with the right hand only. The move
ment must be executed "smartly." A
tagging, ragged salute is no real mill
tary courtesy. 1t is nearer to an af-
front. For it Is neither courteous nor
military. The right hand, therefore
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1917-07-06

is raised "smartly," until the tip of the
forefinger touches the brim Of the hat
or cap-at least the lower part Of
the headdress-or the forehead above
the right eye, thumb and fingers ex-
tended and Joined, palm slightly in
clined to the left. The forearm is in
clined at an angle of about as degrees,
with the hand and wrist straight. At
the same time the soldier must look
toward the officer saluted, and stand
at attention, except for the hand
raised In salute. When his salute has
been acknowledged, he drops his hand
"smartly" to his side.
Salutes are exchanged between Off
GERS and enlisted men as they meet
each other, except when they are in
military formation, or at drill, at work,
playing games, or at mess, At these
times, only, 1t Is not necessary to ex-
change salutes. If, however, the Off
Ger speaks to a soldier at drill or at
work, or the man speaks to the officer,
he gives the prescribed salute with the
weapon he carries, Or, If unarmed, with
his right hand as above described.
The new soldier should become pro-
icient in the salute and the rests af-
ter a few earnest efforts; they are
among the simplest movements re-
quired Of the soldier.
When q soldier is at attention, the
position may be relaxed by the COM
mand "at rest" or "at ease" On re-
ceiving the former command, the SOL
der keeps one foot in place, but is per-
mitted to move the rest Of his body
command Attention" At the command
"at ease," the soldier may do as when
he receives the command Eat rest" with
the exception that he must maintain
silence. From these two positions he
must spring instantly to attention and
command.
Parade rest is a ceremonial posi-
ton of rest, and In the same general
category as the salute. At the COM
mand parade rest" carry the right
foot six inches straight to the rear, left
knee slightly bent; clasp the hands
without constraint in front of the CEN
ter Of the body; fingers Joined, left
hand uppermost, left thumb clasped by
the thumb and forefinger Of the right
hand; preserve silence and steadiness
of position. A common fault is for
the soldier to lean backward when
assuming this position. When execut-
ed properly, the upper part Of the sol
dler's body and his head are held In
the position Of attention.

HOW AND WHY, THE SOLDIER
CHANGES STEP AND DlREc-
TON.

The 30-inch step-known as "quick
movement. Nevertheless, a soldier
should be no more absolutely confined
to this step than a baseball player is
to, say, base-running. Otherwise, a
soldier could not charge.
For this reason double time" Is pro-
vided. The double time" step (there
is no "double-quick") is SO inches. 1t
is executed at a cadence of $50 steps
a minute.
There is, in addition, the trout STEP"
for the march, whereby each mar can
take the step which suits him best
yet after long training in the quick
time" he will find that his rout step
will approximate that measure. There
is also the "half STEP" Is inches in
quick time, IS in double time.
At the command Of "charge!" either
from standing position, the quick
step, or double time, the soldier breaks
into a full run, In which the step is
governed only by the reach of his legs,
For the same reasons that all mill
tary movements cannot be reduced to
q single cadence, it is no more prac'
ticable to limit a soldier to q single
direction of advance. For this, the sol
der Is taught the side step and the
back step, the cleft face" fright face
and "about face"
The side step, under the comc1and
"right STEP" consists of carrying the
right Is inches to the right and bring
ing the left foot up beside it until COM
manded to halt"
"Left step" is, of course, the reverse
of fright STEP" The back step is ex.
ecuted by taking steps Is inches to
rear at the command, Backward
march !" and continuing until brought
to a halt. The side step and the back
step are almost invariably confined to
short distances, and employed for the
purpose of dressing a line. All steps,
except fright STEP" begin with the left
foot. a.
The facings "rlght," '1eft," and
"about" are executed from the posi-.
ton of attention. In fright face" raise
