 MILITARY DRILL
 (H.B. ENDERToN, Instructor
 The work in Military Training is progressing very rapidly, and those boys in the upper grades and high school are receiving instruc- tion which will prepare and enable them to fit into an efficient fighting organiza- tion in the future.
 The ultimate object of training and instruction is success in battle, and to ob- tain this, a company must have it's different parts, it's various elements, Gndividu- als, squads and platoons) thoroughly knitted together into a complete, homogene- ous mass, a cohesive unit, that will under any and all conditions and circumstances respond to the will of the captain "a cohesive unit that knows how to march, that knows how to live pro- perly in camp, that knows how to fight and that can be readily handled tactically on the field of battle. In short, the company has to be an efficient, wieldy fighting weapon, to be manipulated by the captain. There is but one way this object can be obtained, and that is by work by constant care, at tention and pains by coop eration, by team work, among the officers, the non commissioned officers and the privates.
 History shows that the chief factor of success in war is discipline, and that discipline no body of troops can hold their own against a well-directed, we'll disciplined force.
 Discipline is not merely preservation of order, faith full performance of duty, and prevention of offenses- in other words discinline is not

Liberty Loan
 Campaign Starts

With more than 100, 900
 American fighting men go- ing into action this week in the greatest battle in history to halt the Hun and crush the menace to civilization, Uncle Sam is calling for sub- scriptions on the part of those at home to the Third Liberty Loan, the campaign for which opens Saturday. That Arizona will go over the top in record time is con- fidently expected, and that the quota of $3, ,270, 900, which has been assigned to this state by the twelfth fed eral reserve district will be greatly exceeded, is the hope of every 100 per cent Amer ican in the state. Judge D. J. Thomas has been named as chairman of the campaign committee in this county, and he expects the cooper ation of every man, woman and child in this community.
 Fight or Buy Bonds is to be the Third Liberty Loan campaign, which has as it's object the raising of money to make the world a decent place to live in. Bonds of the Third Liberty Loan will bear a higher rate of interest than any bonds yet issued by the government, four and d quarter per cent; but even if there was not this selfish reason for buying them, they would still be the best in- Vestment in the world. Like the bonds of the first and second issues they are back ed by the entire resources of the richest nation on the globe, and are the safest se- curities money can buy.
 Every man, woman and child is ready to buy bonds and to loan his or her money to Uncle Sam at a good rate of interest. For every $100 bond bought, the govern ment pays $4.25 each year. Contrast this with money paid as taxes, for which only a receipt is given. Receipts bear no interest and they have no maturity d a t e. Uncle Sam must have money, and if he can't get it by bor- rowing, it will be taken in taxes. The more bonds bought, the less likely it is that all methods of war tax ation will be greatly in- creased.

nization. This is only one
 phase of discipline. In its
 deeper and more important
 sense discipline may be de-
 fined as the habit of instant
 taneous, and instinctive obe-
 dience under any and all cir
 cumstances--it is the habit
 whereby the very muscles of
 the soldier instinctively obey
 the word of command, so
 that under whatever circum- stances of danger or death the soldier may hear that
 word of command, even though his mind be too con- fused to work, his muscles will obey. It is toward this ultimate object that all rules of discipline tend. In war, the value of this habit of in- stantaneous and instinctive obedience is invaluable, and everything possible should
 be done to ingrain into the very blood of the soldier this spirit, this habit, of ins- tantaneous, instinctive obe- dience to the word of com man.
 We must bear in mind that what may be considered a sound system of discipline at one epoch or for one na- tion, may be inapplicable at another epoch or for another nation. In other words, sound discipline depends up- on the existing state of civi- lization and education, the political institutions of the country, the nationaltrait and  the national military system. For example, the system of discipline that existed in the days of Frederick the Great, and which, in modified form exists today in certain Euro pean armies, whereby the soldier was so inured to a habit of subjection that he became a sort of machine-a kind of automaton. Such a system of discipline, while answering admirably we'll it's purpose at that time and for those nations, would not do at all in this day and generation, and with a peo- pie like ours, in whom the spirit of personal freedom and individual initiative are born. Of course, the disci- pline that will insure obedi- ence under any and all con- ditions--the discipline that will insure prompt and un- hesitating obedience t o march, to attack, to charge is just as important today as it was a thousand years ago, but we can not attain it by the machine-making me thods of former times. The system we use must be in keeping with the national characteristics of our people and the tactical necessities of the day, the latter requir- ing individual initiative. Ac- cording to the old system, the company commander inn posed his will upon a body of submissive units; under the new system the company commander, backed by auth ority and greater know ledge, leads obedient, will ing units, exacting ready obedience and loyal cooper ation.

Dr. Frederick Cook In-
 dOrses HOlbrOOk Oil Field

CllC WSll hllOWIl AICClC OA- plorer, geologist and oil oper- ator from Casper, Wyoming, spent Wednesday in Hol- brook and while here in the limited time allowed inspect ed a portion of the Holbrook Oil belt. The doctor un- hesitatingly declared that favorable evidence existed for the production of oil in this vicinity.
 Dr. Cook was accompani- ed by c. E. Majors, the Cal ifornia and Arizona geolo- gist, who has made an ex- haustive and painstaking re- port of the field for the Hol- brook Oil Go. In his report MT. Majors stated that, in summing up the various as- poets of the field as disclos- ed by his examination and passing his conclusions upon such evidence as possible to obtain, with the present lack of definite information con- corning the thickness, posi- tion, depth, etc., of the un- deriving strata; taking into consideration the fact that oil exists in and is being pro- duced from the Pennsylva- mia formation in the San Juan valley in southeastern Utah, as hort distance north of HoIbrook, and the slight existence of oil in two or three shallow drillings made near here, eliminating all rum ors, Uncorroborated statements and generalities, he said: ''I believe there are favorable possibilities for the production of petroleum in this Holbrook area. "
 MT. Majors further stated in his report. 'In my con- clusions regarding several sectors of the entire area examined, l believe that the Holbrook area offers as fa- vorable possibilities, geolo- gically, for the production of petroleum as have been proved in the San Juan field and that you have as reason able a prospect for the de- velopment of oil in quantity as was had by any of the pioneers in the now widely known fields of Kansas and Oklahoma, both of which are in the same geological form ation. It is not beyond the. range of possibilities that your efforts may result in the development of a field whose production shall be- come an important factor in the petroleum supply of the country"
 At the conclusion of his trip of inspection, Dr. Cook was asked, after he had read the report, how it coincided with his judgment. . H e stated that he indorsed MT. Majors report unqualifedly and that he believed that it was as nearly a statement of the actual conditions as it would be possible to ob- tain.
 Dr. Cook left on Wednes- days train for Denver, ex- pecting to return within a few days for a further ex- animation of the field. While here he secured the services of MT, Majors in the capa-

yawned about seventeen times, he

those happy days when l was paying
you my addresses?"

his left cheek he bore scar that he

soldier, and wasn't he proud mani
He was now ready to do what he could
to keep up. the period Of prosperity
and provide food for the allies. The
women Of Canada have done nobly
during the struggle.
Among the most successful farmers
Of the Oak Lake district, Manitoba,
are the Misses Clara and Beatrice For
ward, who, for the past fourteen years,
have farmed their own land, doing all
the regular work on the farm, such as
blowing, seeding. summer. following
and reaping. They have been espe-
cially successful with stock. and have
a splendid herd of shorthorns, both
purebred and grade. At the recent
Brandon sale they purchased new
purebred stock bull for 500. Their
herd was last year increased by %
calves.
Miss r. NJ. Hillman Of Keller, sas.
katchewan, is another successful
woman farmer. She has gone In ex-
tensively for grain growing. and farms
1,120 acres. She also owns some Of
the finest Percheron horses in Sas-
katchewan.
The prairie now boasts Of many
women who have had more or less sue
cess, though few are farming on the
same large scale as Miss Hillman and
the Misses Forward. These women
have demonstrated, and are still DEM
onstrating, that a versatile woman
may be just as good and successful q
farmer as her brother. II
There are other women, too, on the
Canadian prairies; who, though they
have not had thrown upon them the re-
probabilities Of running a farm"
have been decided factors in making
the farm success. They assist their
husbands by keeping the farm ac-
counts, reducing the grocer's bills by
their management Of the poultry and
butter, taking care of the house, and,
very often, proving good advisers in
the economic management Of the men
and general conduct Of the farm work.
