LETTER FROM "HAL" MELLEN
Impressed With British ofieer's
Talk on Discipline

Lieut., II, l., Mellen, brother Of Dr.,
p, Z, Mellen Of Middlebury, who is
with Co. b, lO2 U, s, Engineers, has
written home letter irom Camp
Wadsworth, s. c., where he has charge
OF the post exchange, or company can
teen, The amount Of work which this
entails is indicated by Mellen's state
ment that the business for the past six
months has been at the rate OF $4,000
a month,
1.-THE officers in the camp, about
5000 in ALL, says Mellen, heard lee
lures last Friday and Saturday by
Colonel Applin Of the British army,
He spoke Friday on machine gun tao
tics, and on Saturday on discipline,
Without exception they were the best
lectures ever heard There was never
wasted word everything in perfect
sequence, and never pause to think OF
the right word wish everybody
could have heard his lecture on dis
cipline, He defined discipline as in
slant and willing obedience TO every
order, and, in the absence OF orders, to
what you think the orders would have
been, He brought out the very es-
sential point that this idea OF discip-
line was just as necessary among the
civilians, workmen, etc, as in the army,
In other words, the entire civilian pop
ulation must be so educated as to be-
lieve in it.
ole started the lecture by quoting
the words Of the German General
Staff as printed in the German news
papers few days after we declared war
last year, That statement was that
they had nothing to fear from the Uni
ted States, as the United States was a
democracy and any democracy could
not attain the necessary discipline to
successfully intervene III modern war
fare, Think it over perhaps the Ger
man General staff may be wrong,
"He also raped the families who
were continually pleading with their
boys to come home or transfer to the
Quartermaster's Corps as that is SO
much safer. 1t would surprise you
10 know just how much trouble is cauS-
ed by such letters, He defined power OF
character as strength multiplied by de-
termination plus tact That lecture and
our farewell parade down Fifth Avenue
are the two things so far in this war
that ] will never forget"
