application, passed the physical ex- animation with no defect noted, but was not accepted because of lack of previous military training.
 In an interview MT. Copp stated that he looked forward with enthusiasm to the eperience of camp life andthe at tendant military training at Camp Devens. "Of course I want to go when I think of the possibilities, by no means probabilitie of the same devas- tating and raViShing treatment of our country, of our womanhood. of our in stitutionS being visited upon this. our fair land, as was inflicted upon Bel gium and northern France if we fail to do our duty now he said. I feel honored in being selected as fit and deem it a privilege to have the Oppor- tunity to do my bit that this country, our Uncle Sammy" to- whom we owe so much shall have a new birth of freedom and that all that is contra dictory to the just> welfare of our tirely eliminated. On the other hand l fully realize what the results of war are other than as they affect the land and government. l fully comprehend what it means for wife and mother to be caused to become a widow and what it means that r little children should have to look in vain for their fathers. l also can imagine the great suspense that prevails just before an attack and when on march the liabil- ity of ambush, besides the havoc caus- ed by shot and shell. Verify war is hell when considered in this aspect. I believe that every man should go fully cognizant of these things and take every precaution possible but not all low his mind to dwell on them for it will only decrease his efficiency and be of no avail.
 In the parade. during the celebration Tuesday evening Mr. Copp acted as captain of the soldiers be of the National Army.

STATE AGENCY OF
 FEDERAL GOVERNMENT Defense Council Now Has County ard Town Auxiliary Organization.

An appreciation of the often repeated statement that this war Is one really of nations rather than of mere armies is necessary to a correct understanding and comprehension of the position in the machinery of the federal govern Council of National Defense and the many state councils of defense. The departments of the government at Washington and ill the states of the Union are essentially adapted to times of peace and are designed to effectuate dition. When this country became 1n- volved in the war, the experience of the nations abroad had already demon strated that the strength of every in- dividual must be utilized and made available for aggressive military opera that it penetrated in. one way or an other and had vital influence upon the lives and activities of every in habitant.
 This being the case. it became man. ifest immediately, in fact. had been uiar establishments of the govern ment could not be sufficiently expand ed to cope with this great work. for it's ma agnitude can be somewhat com- prehended when one realizes that it means a conscious and actual co-ordi- nation of the energy of a hundred mil lion people, 95 per cent. of whom. at least in times of peace, have no actual contact with the machinery of state.
 It was with this in mind that as long ago as August 29, 1916. the Coun- cil of National Defense was establish ed by act of congress.
 The Connecticut Council of Defense was later appointed and now haH county and town auxiliary organiza- tions in all parts of the state.
