Her older sister, Lima, a widow.
peered past her into a room of the old
fashioned village house. trembling and
excited. The bed was undisturbed.

order.
You see," breathed Edna painfully,
father must have gone away last
night"
There is a scrap of paper on the
bureau" discovered Lima, and both
hurried thither to read the hastily
penciled scrawl.

age, so am going to do my bit by buy

hands in distress and fairly hysterical.

sured Edna in her quiet, sensible way,

up. He won't do anything RASH"
But to think of buying a Liberty

"Ah, 1 knew father was too reason
able to go off on a wild-goose chase"
spoke Edna abruptly. as she opened
bureau drawer. See, sister, his old
tin box is empty"
Before the inner vision of both there
flashed a memory of the cherished
relics their father, veteran of the
Civil war. had retained sacredly ever
since he had left the army. There was
the old-fashiOned, clumsy, but solid
gold watch he had worn through all of
his battle experience. There was a
silver loving cup his company had pre-
Sented to him at a soldiers reunion.
There were two double gold eagles,
furnished with age, which he had set
aside nearly a half century ago for a
rainy day. Alas many of the same
had come, but he had skimped it over
until now.
Dear. brave, loyal souli" breathed

new soldier can familiarize himself
with the rifle when he has a rifle in
hand, but he may otherwise school
himself in the squad or company move
ments which accompany or are predi-
Gated upon the use of the rifle, for he
can carry through the squad or COM
pany movements with broomstick.
For various reasons, depending upon
the immediate situation, it may be nee
essary for the squad to increase or di-
minish the interval at which the men
are deployed. For instance, the space
to be covered may be wider or mar
rover than the ten PAGES which the
normal interval would give for the
squad front, or, he fire of the enemy
may at this point be SO ''hot'' that, in
order to advance against it, the
chances of casualties must be reduced
by widening the space between the
men.
If the latter be the case, or if, as
previously stated, it is desirable to
cover a wider front, instead of the
command, "AS skirmishers MARCH 7"
(when the men deploy at half-pace in
tervals), the command may be, "As
skirmishers, at two PAGES, MARCH ~
This would mean that, instead of the
half-pace, or Is inches, twice the full
pace, or 60 inches, would intervene be-
tween each two men. This would ex-
tend the squad front over a distance OF
approximately 20 PAGES, or so feet, and
thus increasing the front of, or the ter
rftory covered by, the squad, reduce
materially the chance of each man be-
ing hit.
1t is essential for the new soldier to
pay the closest heed to extended-order
drill, for it symbolizes real fighting.
He must be SO grounded in the details
of it that he will execute them auto
matically when in action, for, once un-
der fire, he will have plenty of things
to think about besides how he is to
reach the designated point at the des-
ignated time. The use of his rifle will
require his full and active attention.
