THE DOOR IS OPEN

When the Selective Service law was first advocated in Congress it was said that an army raised under it's prin- ciples would be the most democratic army any nation in the world ever realized So it will be. Although the new National Army is in no sense completed, a close perusal of names already selected will show the demo- town in the country. There are( sons of millionaires, mill1onaires them selves, sons of ordinary workmen, workmen, artists, clerks, business men, and men from every station and walk of life. This is democracy, and they are all side by side in the new National Army.
 Entered as privates, all have the same opportunities. There will be no favorites played. The War De- rartment has now announced that the next twenty thousand men selected for commissions will. for the most part, come from the ranks of this new army. The Plattsburg camps of the future will be visited not by men solely from civil lte but by men who have been drafted and who have learned the rudir1ants of modern war fare at such cantonments as Aver, Mass. and it's kindred camping places
 
 fore this war is over the country will need almost 100000 new officers to drill the four or five million men called to the ranks. Here then is en- couragement for all those young men who have been called to service un der the workings of the Selective Draft.
 Any man who goes away to en- campment now and grumbles because he has been called to service under the colors is foolish. There is as much if not more, opportunity to be- come in officer in the army by going as a drafted man than there was be- fore this law went into effect. In truth, the opportunities are greater now than they ever were. The Pro- vost Marshal has been in consulta- ton with the General Staff and after the last conference it became known that the members of the National Army will be given the right of way over all others, except the regular army men, when it comes to choosing new officers. This is encouraging to the boys, for there were many who never have chance to get commits sions. The door is open wider than ever.

expression in it's soldiers-the men who are assigned to the post of dan- ger and of honor. They will go all thA more willingly since they know that behind them the whole Nation is or ganizing for the national service. Their spirit will be one of patriotic devotion fully as intense as that of American armies in previous wars.
 The spirit of democracy and of pa triotism is to be found also in the ar mics of other nations fighting aginst German aggression. Tn addition the National Army will have it's own spir- it of Americanism. It will have Am erican enthusiasm, good humor, fair ness even to the enemy. and self confidence. It will go at it's work not half-heartedly but with vim. If there are temporary setbacks 1t will accept them and keep on plugging. These are some of the American tra- ditions that will enter into the spirit of the National Army.
 Fighting in that spirit and with the full strength of the country to back 1t up. the United States Army can not fail to achieve it's objects "Once more we shall make good with our lives and fortunes the great faith to which we were born, and new glory shall shine in the face of our peo- ple.''

In the Service.

 You're in your country's service now; The flag you live for seems A symbol new, each star, each stripe With added luster gleams; And only you can know the thrill. Can feel the hearts red flame, For you have sworn to serve her true And keep her folds from shame. You're in your country's service now; What better place to be2 You stand with men who dare to go And fight for liberty And honor-yes, 'tis great to live, And greater still to die! For noble are the hearts that hear The voice of freedom cry. You're in your countrys service now; On you she looks with pride; And in your loyalty she trusts
 The stormy waves to ride. Strong men are you with spirits brave, The courage and the will That ever leads to victory,
 The crown of heroes still. You're in your country's service now; March on The bugles blow! nations blessing take with you, And know, whereer you go, America is you-yes, you!-
 Her consecrated might That's pledged to make the world secure For justice, peace and right. -Frederick A. Earle, in the Newark News.
