SENTENCE INADEQUATE.

A second lieutenant of Camp Zach
airy Taylor, Kentucky, was found
guilty by court martial of the charge
of drunkenness, and sentence was rem
dered that he be reprimanded. This
sentence was vigorously disapproved
by Prigadier General Wilder, who de-
clared that the punishment is made
quate. General Wilder said:
''The sentence in this case is so in
adequate that the reviewing authority
is unable to reconcile the action of
the court with the standard of con-
duct and discipline which must be
preserved if the army is to, be de-
voloped into an effective fighting
force. Drunkenness on the part Of
the officers in any circumstance dur
ing the present emergency is SO ut
terly reprehensible and disgraceful
that it's federation by military courts
or other military authorities can only
! serve to bring reproach upon the serv-
ice and, if unchecked, disaster. to our
army. The reviewing authority cam
not give approval to the sentence in
| this case"
This young lieutenant was said to
have been drunk and disorderly in
the lobby of the See1bach Hotel.
Uncle Sam is requiring strict sobri-
ETY. from his soldiers. He has thrown
dry zone around the army camps
and yet, wherever these camps are
| located in the vicinity of wet city,
saloon keepers continue to sell intoxi-
cants to the soldiers in spite of the
| federal law.
Why can't the Government see the
necessity of nationwide prohibition to
make this military prohibition order
fully effective? And is it entirely fair,
assuming that personal liberty rights
are invaded, to put the soldiers on a
strict prohibition basis while civilians,
whose labor and effort are also needed
| to help win the war, are permitted
! to drink intoxicants without molesta-
| ton? .-..s
The very fact that the Government
recognizes alcohol as an enemy to the
soldiers is one of the strongest argu-
! ments for war emergency prohibition.
| Uncle Sam may as well recognize the
| fact right now that the only possible
way to make his army bone-dry is to
put the nation on prohibition basis.

he is saying, it is pleasure for the

Let all huskiness and unintelligible-
ness depart from your voice. Produce
clearness and volume in all public
reading and speaking Really the way
he reads and speaks is a sign of the
intelligence of man. He shows he
has grasped the thought, understands
his audience and adapts himself to
it. Strange, unfamiliar words, names,
places, should be read or spoken very
slowly and clearly. We are enchanted
when all this is done well.
Debating or literary societies are a
great help in the art of public speak
ing; they enable you to think upon
your feet Cardinal Manning attrib-
utes his ease and readiness in speak
ing to his practice in the debating
societies of Oxford. Public speakers
who have to write down every little
word they utter are helpless some
times on very important occasions.
We should be able to talk on any
subject if given few moments
preparation. While the tongue talks
on we can be thinking out new
thoughts. This fluency or readiness
is invaluable.
1 was at Chicago recently at the
Peace Jubilee and listened to more
than twenty speakers. There were
about 5000 people present in the
Auditorium, and it was wonderful the
attention that was paid to some of
the speakers. The audience generally
listened for about three minutes to a
speaker in the beginning. If his
thoughts were we'll put in choice die
ton, and he spoke we'll, he captivated
the entire audience and held them
spellbound. If his thoughts were
poorly expressed, or he was indistinct,
the people turned around and began
to talk to one another and remarked,
eve wonder what he came here for"
Some pretty fair speakers stand be-

their tongue moves. They haven't

utters, his body will correspond to

rostrum produces a very bad impress

great weight with the people, and even
the melody and harmony of his voice

though there may be much behind an

They judge quickly at first sight by

not to be able to achieve a large
measure of success in the art of pub
lie speaking. Practice the rules of
elocution. First of all, we need in.
tellectual capacity. Secondly, we
require a well-trained voice to express
in different tones the various senses
! of, our message. When we read we
read the thoughts of others. When
we speak our own thoughts we should
be more natural and effective
Thirdly, we need readiness. These
principles require a great deal of prac.
tice.

him for his just and kind treatment of
the Catholics of his kingdom, and in
union with them sends his best wishes
