MORE COMPANY DEVELOPMENTS.

When the company is in column of
squads, to form the slzirmish line to
the front, the command would be, GAS
skirmishers, guide right Cleft or cen
teri, MARCHI" If then marching, the
corporal of the base squad deploys it
and moves straight to the front; if at
halt, he deploys it without advanc-
ing. If the guide be right Qeft), the
other cOrpOrals move to the left (right)
front, and in succession from the base
place their squads on the line. If the
guide be center, the cOrpOrals in front
of the center squad move to the right
if at halt, to the rear. The cOrpOrals
In the rear Of the center squad move
to the left front, and each, in success
sion from the base, places his squad on
the line.
The company may also be deployed
in an obliQue direction, whether in line
or in column of squads. The captain
points out the desired direction, and
the corporal of the base squad moves
in the direction indicated. The other
cOrporals. with their squads, conform.
To form the skirmish line to the flank
or rear, the line or column Of squads
is turned by squads to the flank or
rear; it is then deployed as described.
The intervals between the men are in
creased or diminished as already de-
scribed in the school OF the squad, al
though it may be necessary to add to
the preparatory command, "Gufde
| right Cleft or center).'
To assemble a company deployed as
| skirmishers, the captain either desfg-
mates or takes his post in front of the
element on which the company is to
assemble. At the command, Assemble,
march," the men move promptly
toward the designated point and the
| company is reformed in line. If it is
to be assembled by pl8toons, the pla-
toOns are first conducted to the desig-
mated point by the platoon leaders, and
the company is reformed in line.
The platoons individually may be as
sembled by the command, "Platoons,
assembly, marchl'' This is then exc
cuted by each platoon as described for
the company. But it may also be de
sired to assemble certain platoons, one
or more, and this may be accomplished
by the command, "Such platoon(s 81
| that is 'HThe first and second pIa-
toons," or Lieutenant Blanks platoon
Assembly, march" The move
ment, as said above, is then executed
by the designated platoon or platoons
as described for the company.
1t must be admitted that deploy-
ments by the company are at first con-
fusing to the new soldier But if he
attends strictly to his corporal, and re-
members his instruction in skirmish-
ing for the squad, he will have no diff
| ficulty. All that devolves upon him
will be to do his individual share, and
this, in practically all cases, is confined
to what he has learned in the school
Of the squad. 1t is for his noncom-
missioned officers to handle the squad
in q way to conform with the rest OF
the platoon or company. Nevertheless
the new SOldier-the Intelligent Ameri
can SOldier-will want to know why
he is called upon to execute certain
movements, as well as how to negotf.
ate them. This he can readily learn
II, while performing his own duties to

eye upon the composite movement
around him.

Wind Resistance At Sea

The problem Of wind resistance to q
steamship at sea has been studied in a
very exact and careful manner. A
miniature model OF 3,O0O-ton freight
er was built in exact proportion and
tested against an artificial breeze In a
specially built tunnel. It was found
that 30-mile gale exerts a resistance
OF approximately $500 pounds against
a steamer Of the 3,OOO-ton size, and
that such a wind alone will cut down
her speed 5 per cent. When the indirect

Second that transportation agen-

In brief the commission finds that

tainties Of bituminous industry, have
offset the increases.
