the name is very complex indeed, 1t
comes from the word adju- found in
the hieroglyphics of the ancient ma
ton of the Dihedrals, meaning, "the
man who cannot and the word tant
frorm the mystic literature of the
Mugwumps, which was their way of
saying, pass the buck" Baked into
heap and sorted out, their names
seem to indicate that they cannot
pass the buck"
"When Washington sends in an or
der, who gets it first and sees it
through? The adjutant. When or
ders are issued who gets them first?
The adjutant. Can he pass 1t on?
Yes, he can, but they all come back
to him. Nearly every one in the army
can pass the buck along except the
adiutant and the buck private. This
comparison is rather ipcongruous but
nevertheless the facts are convinc-
ing. So why not use facts?
"The adjutant has to ride the
bumps throughout. In fact he is the
shock-absorber in the Post landing

Much Knowledge.

Besides handling scores of paper
work daily he must know the duties
of every man and officer on the Post.
He must have very intimate ac-
quaintance with drill regulations,
courts martial, guard manual and 9th
er army works. The adjutant and his
assistants have to be the best in
formed men on the Post, whether 1t
be the price of onions in Denmark
or the number of goosesteps in mile.
"Then also we have the telephone
pest that usually gets connected with
the adjutant's office, and what foolish
questions are asked daily!
"If some girls club in Riverside
wants to entertain some of the avia-
tors the invitations are first sent
TO the adjutant OF course he doesn't
exactly mind that. Passes to the
field are issued from the adjutants
office.
"The adjutant is usually the first at
his desk and the last to leave at
night Work never seems to get
cleared up. 1t keeps piling up con
stantly. Letters have to be forward
ed. order filed, recommendations at,
tended to and scores of other simi-
lar duties.

tions in its present form. The first
question and answer in the primer are {:
Q. What is The real trouble with the
league of nations?
a. The trouble is that It places the
control Of the peoples business in the
hands of a small group Of diplomats
and takes no account of the Will of

the fighting.
Next the cause Of war is taken up:
