British Discipline.
from the Century,


1t was wise decision on the part
of the English government to create
no new regiments when they entered
the great war. Instead, the number
OF battalions in existing regiments
was increased. Many of these regi-
ments were very old. and about them
hung the traditions of glorious past.
the Royal Scots, the Welsh Fusiliers
or the Black Watch, as the case might
be, q man unconsciously lost the
sharpness OF his own individuality in
the eager desire to conform to the
traditional characteristics OF a great
company. He was, in a way, no
longer John Doe or Richard Roe. but
Royal Scot or Welsh Fusilier.
guardian of the usages Of an age-old
organization, exemplar OF it's soldier
~ conduct. Proud of his regiment, he
was taught to prove his pride in his
manner and dress
1t was with the view of emphasize
ing every detail OF this pride that
British military authorities decided
to replace the bronze buttons of uni
forms with buttons Of brass, which
the soldiers are rQuired to polish
and men must shave daily, and when,
after a week of hard lighting and
sometimes short rations. the remnant
of battalion Is relieved, 1t is required
to march at attention. with parade
ground precision, as 1t leaves the
trenches for its holiday rest in the
rear. It is this rigid subsection to
every detail that has in part made
possible the heroic stand that British
troops are making today against a
more numerous foe. Their lines bend
back. but they do not break: they
lose BIT by bit the ground they light
over. but never their lighting spirit,
their cohesiveness. their esprit do

Service Flags and Pins.
From the Rutland Herald


Now that 50 much pride is being
taken in and so much stress laid on
service nass and their accompanying
emblems and pins. # looks as though
the War Department would be asked
to rule on their display ana employ
ment, so that a very pretty custom
ana proper exhibition Of pride could
ing.
Abuse Of service flags and service
pins Is widespread. There are houses
oisplaytng two and three star flags
serving in either the Army or Navy
or any Of their branches, Because
members Of the family. near relatives
or former dodgers go to the front the
nag ID mounted and none may say
Young women are wearing service
pins for their sweethearts in the
Army or Navy, not because they are
relatives. but because they hope to
lance in adapting an unofficial badge
Of honor.
Now that the casualties are placing
their solemn stamp and amph asis on
that certain unauthorized inventors
are prescribing gold stars or white
stars or silver stars in memory of
men who have given their lives for
1u"1uity, IL - hl8n time Tor the War
Department to make q few simple
rules. like the nag regulations, gov

Teaching Tommy to Dance.
from the London Mail.


There are more ways than one of
making a man fit. The obvious
method is not always the best. It is.
for instance. the principle OF dis
guising the pill in a spoonful OF jam
which you see applied in the Army in
connection with that important phase
Of training. Physical Jerks" aa
Tommy calls it.
In the convalescent camp some
where in France from which I write,
'tP. T." is an important factor. Each
morning, after the coloneTs inspec-
ton. to the accompaniment of n
lively march played by the drum
and fife or military band Eve have

well, composed of convalescent Tom

spot and. under, capable instructors,
indulge in all kinds of sporty"
pastimes.
Boxing is one. Those men who de-
sire to be taught the gentle art Of
fisticuffs fall out. and. stripped to
the waist, are soon making music
with the gloves The rest. split up
into suitable parties. play basket ball
and various other games which tend
TO strengthen tho muscles ana Snarp-
en- ones ideas.
The latest innovation here is
teaching Tommy to dance. 1t may
sound silly, perhaps. but it is really
very sensible. You should have
heard the ordinations on the first
morning when men who few days
previously had been fighting Ger
mans were lined up in pairs and in
formed by the instructor that he was
about to teach them the "St Paul
two-step!"
Then the fun began! "one. two!
One, two, three! while Tommy
struggled to master the movements.
IF Jerry came over now he would
say that we had gone stark. staring
mad" remarked one man.
"Pavlova isn't in it," exclaimed an
other.
Tommys sense OF humor was tic
killed. by his own capers just as much
as by those Of his pals.
Now he is becoming an expert
dancer and, without feeling that his
dignity is in any way compromised,
takes his partner for the two-step
and dances to the accompaniment of
the band. He is now asking for "a
few "WaacS.'"

BABY PEDDLING IN CHINA.
Little Ones Are Sold in Hinghwa

From the Portland Press.
Poverty due to political and eco

Hinghwa, China. where it is possible
Mrs. William N. Brewster. head of the
Methodist Episcopal Orphanage in
that district, recently reported to tine
foreign mission board that mission
aries had purchased many boys. and
girls in order to save them from fall
ing into the hands of the lepers.
Baby peddlers go through the
streets crying their wares. with the
children in baskets hanging from
their shoulders" declared Mrs. Brew
ster.
..rheir best customers are the dwell
ers in the leper colony just outside
the city. who want the little ones to
beg for them. 1t is only a short time
before the babies contract the disease.
I recently rescued q beautiful child
from the lepers. They had paid 50
cents for it.
1.-TWO dollars is the usual price for a
child. though travelling theatrical
companies sometimes pay more for
boys who seem unusually bright. The
government Is supposed to care for
blind or deformed babies. but as a
matter Of fact the officials generally
sell them to the beggars. Threatened
starvation has made many people so
desperate that they expose their de-
fective children in the tiger infested
mountains or bury them alive. One
of the babies in the orphanage was
found on a lonely mountain-top; an
other, blind boy. was rescued from
an open grave"
Two hundred children. most of them
abandoned by their parents, are now
being cared for at the institution.
When the $50. 10000 program of the
Methodist Episcopal Church is put
into operation next year as a means
of celebrating the centenary anniver-
sary of its missions. the orphanage
will receive funds which will help it
enlarge its work.
