HOW TO MARCH AND NOT TIRE.
Feet Should BE Moved Forward in
Straight Lines; Planted Easily.

New York Herald: A successful
march, according to the field service
regulations Of the United States army,
whether in peace or war, is one that
places the troops at their destination
at the proper moment and in the best
possible condition. In war marches
are of daily occurrence, and success
depends in great measure upon the
skill with which they are conducted.
Good marching is assured by careful
preparation, strict discipline and the
due observance of march sanitation.
While conforming to other require.
ments, marches are conducted so as TO
reduce to a minimum the hardships of
the troops.
So much the officers in command Of
the units of marching column are re.
sponsible for but there is another fac.
tor which enters into the equation, and
which the individual must determine
for himself. The distance when
troops can march in a day is limited
only by the endurance and marching
ability of the slowest unit in the col.
umn. This distance is great or small
as the men know, or do not know, how
to eXpend their energy most econom.
ioally
A man has just so much energy TO
expend II he wastes some Of it it wIl.
move his body forward just so much
less in the course of a day. Walking
so that the body is raised and lowered
unnecessarily with every step is
waste Of energy. and not only makes
each step shorter, but requires more
work of the muscles in moving the
body forward a given distance
In drills at attention the prescribed
step for the soldier is thirty inches,
and 100 steps are taken eevry minute.
Marching in the field, however, is usu.
ally at route step-that is, the men are
not required to maintain the rhythm
nor to keep step with each other. 1t
is here that the individual can save
his energy to the best advantage
The feet should be moved forward in
straight lines and planted without
shock The arms swing naturally AZ
the sides, most of the motion being in
that part Of the arm below the elbow.

New York Herald: There are some

of their unhappy kingdom still untrod

description of the marine; they are sol.
diers and sailors, too. How these Bel.

IS one Of many strange stories of the
war.
For two years most Of the Belgian
front has been under water the barrier
the Belgian flung across the German
path in the first year of war by open
ing the dlkes. On one side Of the water
are the Belgian trenches, on the other
side the German. There are miles and
miles of flooded, sodden country with
here and there a village shelled to rub.
BILE, one Of the most desolate regions of
the whole western front.
BY day all is quiet on those lowlands
except for the occasional cracks of the
snipers rifle or the rumble Of the usual
bombardment. But when night falls
there begins exciting, touch and go
work in the dark between the trenches
on No Mans sea.
For considerable stretches the water
is nearly mile wide. Just at its edge
little boats lie hidden under the Belgian
trenches. In the darkness the Belgian
infantrymen steal down to them and.
now become marines to forth on patrol
