finely printed detail instruction for every
item of duty. In addition to knowing the
general rules for a soldier on foot and the
use of the pistol the artilleryman must
learn the handling of horses. of which there
are more than 100 in a fully equipped ar
tillery regiment.
The cannoneers and gunners must be spe-
cially trained to handle the guns and to set
the range from instructions given from
scouts, maps or aerial observations.
Howltzers are guns not aimed directly at
the object of fire. but shot at an angle so
that the projectile falls on the target A
hit depends on very close mathematical
calculations. A battery of howitzers usually
fires at an enemy behind a hill or hidden
by brush
DON'T NEED LONG TRAINING
Major John Handy Hall, of the first
battalion of the Second Regiment, thinks
the views Of some officers that the Ma
tional Guard units will not be ready for
fghting before year spent in training
are 'pessimistic."
"Army life is a business like ANYTHING
else, and requires common sense chiefly"
he said. "A graduate from a law school
must unlearn more than half the things
he thought were necessary rules before
he becomes success as a lawyer; so
soldier who learns by rote all the book
rules of military practice must drop many
of them in real fighting service The
greatest value Of rules is the teaching of
obedience and team work.
THE Second Regiment Is one of the best
trained regiments in the country, now that
many of the regular army men are in
France. and do not think that much time
will be required to get 1t in fighting shape
There has been too much talk about the
slaughter of men through the leadership of
inexperienced officers. 1t is a matter of
history that most of the great slaughters of
battle have been caused by the stubborn
orders OF regular army officers of long train
ing, who were so bullheaded they thought
they could force their men through stone
wall.
THE personnel Of the armies in Europe
now fighting against the Germans proves
that officers and men of short training can
do good work"

PARCELSFOR SOLDIERS,
But HOW CAN THEY GO?
Post Office Won't Take EN-, So
Gifts Stay Here-No Arrange
ment for Foreign Mail Yet
EXPRESS THE ONLY HOPE
Emergency Aid Begins Work on
Providing for Delivery
of Packages

There are some packages in this city all
dressed up--they have a place to 20 but
they are having a mighty hard time making
the trp
They want to go to the American expedi-
tionary forces In France, but
Here's the situation. Since June 27 no
parcel post packages addressed to American
soldiers In France have been accepted The
irony of the predicament is this Parcels
may be sent to the French soldiers in many
provinces Of France via the parcel-post
method Of transporting gifts that is denied
to the Sammee.
According to the Foreign Department Of
the Postoifice at Ninth and Chestnut streets,
the seeming inequality resolves Itself into
two facts: The French Government has
provided for the sending of gifts to its
soldiers by making a compact with the
United States whereby French ships call at
American ports for the packages. The
United States Government has made no
provision for the carrying of packages by
mail, probably because Of lack of ships.
All mail sent from America to France Is
now classified as domestic.
The packages could go by way of ex-
press providing they are insured to the
amount of Il per cent of their value, and
also providing they do not contain any
of very long list Of articles prescribed
In the foreign office of n large express COM
pany as contraband for "Sammee" or any
other person who may happen to be in
France.
An instance of what may keep mother
from sending her soldier boy canned
chicken, for instance. is the fact that the
latter Is included in President Wilson's EN-
barge on exports and cannot leave America
without a special permit from Washington.
Sensing the predicament of the "Sammee"
in France, the French war relief committee
of the Emergency Aid is going to discuss
the matter at its next meeting. All of the
supplies destined for France from the re-
lief committee go to the New York Office to
be shipped by freight 1t has been sug-
gested by some that the commission take
upon itself the additional task of transport
ing private packages.
In the meantime there are lot of
nephews of Uncle Sam in this town-boys
going to take up their cudgels on the other
side-who are hoping that their great big
kindhearted Uncle will begin to remember
before they take the trip overseas.
Because it's no fun being a "Sammee''
when being a poilu let's you in on a box"
