groundwork Of preparation. What
measure Of military training shall be
given to the young men Of the coun-
try in the future is ~a<subject Of which
we have scarcely sufficient facts to
form a definite opinion, but it seems
clear that there should be adopted
some system which will be effective
in impressing on the minds of the
young men of the nation that regard
less of the place of their birth, re-
gardless of the language which has
been spoken by their parents, their
first duty is to the country which is
their home and the government under
which they enjoy the blessings of
freedom.
Much along this line can be done
in the way OF academic instruction,
bot something more concrete is needed
to make the proper impression. If,
experimenting the lessons of patriot
ism which it must always be the duty
of our schools to teach,> and which
they do teach, the boy is reminded
by a certain amount Of drill in mill
tary preliminaries that what he has
read in his text books and heard from
the lips Of his teachers is mott mere
talk. but that he is now being given
certain preparation which will en-
able him to put those lessons into
effect, we shall be likely to hear less
about resistance to the authority of
the government in tho future.

attack from her. and Immediately the troops which It
had been necessary to hold In readiness, to repel a
southern invasion were turned loose on the Germans at
Allied plans were thrown awry by the italian collapse
of last fall, and not until recently has the italian situa-
tina Italian situation was cleared up, 1t was necessary
for General Foch to hold in readiness a sufficient num-
Der Of reserves to check an Autrian advance If the
Italians should prove unable to do so themselves. lsut
when Austria started her recent hunger offensive, and
her troops were driven across the Piave. and back
among the mountains from which they had sought to
emerge, the Italians showed their ability to take care OF
themselves. and Foch was at liberty to use his reserves
as he pleased. If Italy had shown weakness there could
have been no Allied counter offensive in force last week.
The Russian situation has come into notice from
time to time through the confirmation Of the report of
the killing-execution Or assassination-of the former
car, of peasant riots against the Germans in the Ukraine
and in White Russia, the abandonment Of Ukraine of
her claims on Bessarabia. and, most important of all,
the acceptance by Japan Of the American proposals for
action in Siberia in favor of the Czecho- Slovaks..
