best used in any army. and tend to
cure foot blemishes. Moreover. 1t is
made one of the most important du-
ties of the company officers TO superfn-
tend the fitting of shoes of every man
in the company.
Given proper shoes and clothing,
and an absence of physical disability,
it is the purpose of the various COM
manders to gradually train their men
by various exercises adapted to their
particular needs to bring out all their
muscular activity, their endurance un-
der strain, their ability to Withstand
disease. to give them agg~ressiveness
and the will to conquer.
At the same time they are instructed
as to personal cleanliness n bodily
hygiene, they are protected from vice,
encouraged to play games, and are
surrounded by every possible agency
to refine and keep clean both body and
mind. No army in the world has ever
been so protected or has been so free
from vice OF all kinds both in the
United States and France.
This physical and mental training
has a tremendous effect upon tho man
in every way. 1t makes him go into
battle with confidence In himself and
I'm his officers. He knows he has been
trained to the minute. that he need
not think OF his body, that It will re-

Mr.. Alexander has had some years
experience in conducting large amateur
symphony orchestras in Toma and III
Paso. Texas, where he directed fifty
pieces, which appeared in joint concerts
with some of the leading artists of the
day. The Ell Paso Times writes of the
last concert given:
"Seldom has Ell Paso heard as good
music by amateurs as was presented
by the High School orchestra last night.
The program given was excellent, ana
the playing of the quartette from Ri
goletto and the march from Aida was
superb. The march and chorus from
Tanhauser, in spite of the tremendous
qualities, was a piece of art as played
by the orchestra.
The Normal school authorities hereby
invites any one interested to register
with Mr.. Alexander, and to get the
benefit of the preferred membership.
