HOW RANK Is APPLIED IN THE
ARMY


A valued correspondent desires that 1
shall write few lines as to ranking Of
ficers in the United States army.
1 am afraid 1 am not familiar myself
with all the grades. nor regular promo
lions. The companies that were organ
lied in the Civil war had a captain in
command. then first and second lieuten-
ants then sergeants, corporals, etc.
These companies were united into regi-
ments. generally ten companies to a
regiment. Then there was a colonel Sc
lected to command. Under him were
first and second lieutenant colonies and
majors
Next came brigades. comprising sew
eral regiments. and there was a briga-
der general appointed. He had others
to command the soldiers if he was not
with them or was killed in action.
A division was composed of several
brigades, with lieutenant generals in
command. This was the highest rank
in the army except the full general, and
there is but one person at time to hold
the position of full general
In the navy there are admirals to
head the chief organizations. There are
rear admirals. who have reached the
age Of retirement. Then the ranking
officers in smaller divisions come along,
very much as they obtain in the army.
Sometimes the president appoints some
officer over the heads of regular officers,
but not often.
The old adage, HE won his spurs"
applies to the regular system of pro-
motions

JOY RIDING

l deem it necessary to warn girls and
young women against taking long drives
with men with whom they are not relat-
ed and of whom they know but little
and to whose reckless driving they risk
their very existence. I agree that il is
very exhilirating to go fast in an auto
car, or behind housekeeping horse, on
a smooth, good road, but the facts go
to show that there is great risk to be
encountered and very serious results are
often encountered. There is a speed
mania in the majority of auto car driv-
ers. Going fast gets very soon to be
driving recklessly-and II has been my
experience that you cannot make the
driver heed your counsel because he
thinks he knows II sll-and he Is salts
fed you know very little about it. So he
attempts to rush across a railroad track
in front OF n moving train, or he will
swerve aside and skin along the edge
Of an embankment-or he will go be-
tween street cars and another racing
automobile,-or he will dodge n tele-
phone pole and end up in disaster The
great majority of automobile accidents
are owing exactly to. the fool-hardy
people who can't be reasoned with as
to the necessity Of being always careful
and Of going at a reasonable pace-for
safety.
L VIII not close without one more WoTo
of caution. Voting girls and women
are often deceived as to the mind and
morals of men-and the opportunity that
is offered in long JOY rides-to mistreat
womankind-is daily attested by what
is reliably stated in the public prints,
and much that is never publicly stated.
Go slow, girls--in these uncertain times!
War times are twice as uncertain as
peace times. Don't go Joy riding with
out some other woman along. Stay
a home and walk for safety.
