IN THE ARMY

Peter b. Kyne writes an interesting
story for the September American
Magazine in which he says:
Il think that, of all the experiences
and adventures have had in my life
thus far, those I CLEANED during my
fourteen months in the regular army
have had the most profound effect in
shaping my destiny.
The recruiting posters will tell you
that year in the army will teach
your boy courage. II will Also, it will
teach him how to die. and in teaching
him this il will teach him how to live.
And he will learn how to obey, in or
der that in the later battle of life he
may know how to command: il will
teach him democracy. and IL. after he
has learned to defend his country and
practical use of his education for the
benefit of posterity. he will learn ten

and denies this statement, will take
the short end of modest bet that his
record in the War department arch
ives will prove him n balingerer, on
sick report when he wasn't in the
guardhouse for being a dirty. careless.

the United States Army is a real job
with variegated details. many of them

of them degrading, and the Army is

SANTA Re SERVICE.
NOT CURTAILED BY.
WAR EMERGENCY.

With the view of relieving the pub
lie mind of any erroneous impression
that service on its lines is to be Sc
riously curtailed because of the war,
the Atchison. Topeka & Santa Fe
Railway company makes this an
nouncement
1T is the intention of the Santa
Fe to maintain the efficiency of its
service. passenger and freight, and to
give patrons as much notice as pos
sible of any temporary changes which
may be necessary on account of mill
tary emergencies"
Continuing. the announcement says:
9Th Santa Fe. several months ago,
cooperating with the Railroads War
Board at Washington. made plans for
meeting the requirements of the gov
ernment in transporting troops and
war freight promptly. and it has been
able to do SO to date without seriously
disturbing business conditions, al
though owing to the continued heavy

ger trains. In a few instances there
have been consultations of poorly
patronized branch. line trains, but in
all such cases the company was par
ticular to see that the communities
concerned did not suffer. While every
indication is that the transportation
needs of Santa Fe territory will be
met the company asks patrons to ex-
ercise patience when, in the stress of
an emergency. the service is not 100
per cent.
Having the backing Of all the rail-
roads and the government. and also
the cooperation of most shippers. the
War Board has greatly increased the
capacity of the country's transporta-
tion facilities. mainly in bringing about
heavier freight car loading. Many
shippers volunteered to load cars to
capacity, or nearly so; others, upon
request. promptly agreed to increase
their loading; still others promised to
do the best they could. The spirit
manifested by the shippers, generally,
has been fine; for the greater use of
existing fright equipment is the out
growth of friendly cooperation on the
part of the railways and their patrons,
rather than by force OF law
''As result of the unity of action
on the part of the carriers, every
available freight car in the United
States is in use. Once a week there
is redistribution of cars among the
lines which need them the most, re-
gardless of ownership. thus eliminat-
ing waste. This has helped material
ly in increasing the efficiency of the
service. On May i the country was
short 10000 cars. On August l the
shortage had been reduced to 33,776.-

Honor g. Making Good as a Sol
der 3. Nine Soldierly Qualities.)
Your real training for your duties
as soldier will begin after you and
your comrades are assembled at the
training camps. However. there are a
few simple things you can do during
the next few weeks which will be of
decided value in getting you started
along the right lines.
The simplest thing. and perhaps the
most useful OF all. is to begin at once
TO practice correct habits of standing
and walking. Even in civilian lifs g
mans reputation In his community =
yes. and for that matter his own self
respects determined TO surprising
extent by his bearing. The man who
siouches feels like SLOUGH. The man
who holds his head up faces the world
With confidence and courage.
II this is true in civilian life. IL is
ten times more true in military life
For soldier must always be strongly
marked BY his snap. his precision. and
his vigor. lie can not have these traits
unless he carries himself like a sol.
der.
THE BEARING OF A SOLDIER
Few people without military train
ing have correct idea OF what is
meant by the position and the bearing
OF soldier. They are apt 10 imagine
that IL means n strutfor an extremely
strained attitude. Or. more frequent
ly. they think that the term can
properly be applied to any erect posi-.
ton The truth of the case, however.
Ia that there is a definite procedure to
follow in order to place yourself in
what is known In the army as 'the
position of n soldier" II is the position
which the dismountcd soldier always
assumes at the command .Attcntion."
except as IL may be slightly modified

arms he may have in his hands.

paragraph 81 of the Infantry Drill
Regulations which gives the complete
and accurate description. of the posi-
tion OF the soldier. This paragraph is
slightly paraphrased and simpIlfed in
the description following: Keep in
mind that there are ten elements
which must be property adjusted TO
each other. and check yourself up to
see that each one of them is properly
placed.
