An Appeal to the Soldiers.
Brig. Gen. Beach, acting commander
of this division, has made direct ap-
| peal to the men as individual units in
a great army. In his address, posted
in each of the barracks, he says:
There remains now but short
time to finish OH the rough edges OF
the training of our division. Let US,
| in passing the first phase, hesitate suf-
ficiently to appreciate fully our short
comings. Each man can profitably
take stock and decide for himself his
own shortcomings. When he realizes
| that his life at any moment may de-
pend on the thoroughness and COM
pleteness of his training here, the
character of his work will be of a
higher degree. If he is always con-
scious that excellence and aggressive
ness with the bayonet may save his
] life, the quality of his work in train
| ing will certainly improve. When he
recognizes adequately the value to
himself of being fully versed in the gas
situation, he will see to it that he is
prepared in every respect to meet t,
Each man must be unit, fit and cap
able of caring for himself. Moreover,
there must be certain correlation of
parts that will build correct and etfl-
cient organization. With limited time
| left the energy Of each individual must
be concentrated in the SSth division
to make it finished whole and one
of the best to go overseas
Many Men to Prison.
