Discharged soldiers go back to
civilian life with responsibility they
should never shirk. They must uphold
the tradition Of the Army man.
Men and women in civilian life
recognize the Army as the accepted
method for instilling into men alert
ness, discipline and intelligent co-ordi-
nation of mind and MUSCLE. Every
discharged soldier will find that his
friends, relatives and enployers-par-
ticularly the cEaployers-will expect
something OF him which they did not
always insist upon before.
They expect men who have been
mustered out from the greatest mill
tary machine Of history to exhibit
those unfaiiing signs Of the true SOL
dier-obedience to superiors, ability to
command and the habit of bearing
oneself with military carriage and pre-
cision.
Soldiers ready for inspection would
not think Of letting their shoes 60 I'M
polished or of wearing garment with

lack of attention. When they become

HONOR OF THE UNIFORM

Never before in all history has the
American uniform stood for more
than ii does today.
Those who were privileged 10 reach
the firing line, to stand shoulder to
shoulder with our associates on the
biocd-soalred soil Of heroic France;
these who by day and by night will
ingly bore their burden of the drudgery
Of Office work to keep steady the flow
Of supplies to the front and those who
speedily left civil life TO endure the
grilhng training to condition them
selves coon to take their places on the
lire, today occupy a niche high in the
esteem of their fellow -countryrnen
The American people are not given
TO denonHtrative expression, still deep
in the heart Of the average citizen
there ig an appreciation Of the army
that time can never erase. From Cha
feau Thicrry to Sedan were speedily,
but indelibly, written chapters of
American history that will not be fully
understood until the whole is chroni-
eied for the edihcation of future gem
crations. Still the men and the women
and the children OF the country today
take consumnate pride in the achieve
rresits of tsaSir soldiers, and there is a
deep feeling of appreciation Of gacri-
fee that approaches reverence.
1t Is distinctly up to the men in uni-
form to maintain this prestige. Upon
the men just leaving the service, with
that tsnimpcachabie reference - an
honorable discharge~-depends most in
defending by their conduct the honor
of the service In which they were
honored by being included. AS the
test OF a chain is it's weakest link, so,
also, is the honor OF the army depend
eut upon the conduct of the ulen com
prtsing il.
During the period between dis
charge and donning civilian clothes
GENES peculiar test of the soldiery
qualities of the man. Outside the nili-
tary law the honoTably discharged sol
der has the time OF his career to oven
improve the impression he made while
Etill In the service. Lot him wear his
uniform in slovenly manner, fail to
salute othcers OF commit other
breaches of military regulations, coar-
tesies and customs, and the civilian OBJ
servers gather the impression that the
soldiers conduct in the srny was due
more to fear of the law than honor and
respect for the service of which he
was a part.
To the officers no less than to the
men from the ranks do these principles
apply. In this respect no more telling
sdmonition has been compiled than
the following memorandum from the
commander Of the naval forces in
France:

SOLDIERS AND NATIONAL WELFARE

Commentators throughout the coun-
try are impressed by the profound in
terest being shown in national welfare
by returning soldiers
Successive Congresses after the Civ
il War were controlled by men who
participated in that strife and, while
to-day there are but eleven men in
the two branches of Congress who
wore the Blue or the Gray, the in
huence of the men of the early sixties
has been keenly felt through the whole
span of more than half century,
Favored by advantages unknown to
their forefathers, the soldiers of to-
day are described as the BEST educa-
ted, most intelligent and best informed
men ever found in the business Of
war" Soldiers, sailors and marines,
combined with the host that laboTed
in the uunition plants. keeping steady
the flow of supplies, compose a force
of perhaps 5,00o,000, which combined
with mothers aud fathers, sisters and
brothers and other relatives, presents
a total Of about $4,000, 900.
It is an encouraging sign that this
stupeud0us force Of the most repre-
sentative American citizenry is eX-
hibiting lively interest in the welfare
of the Union. 1t is indicative of q
healthy patriotism, but even more en-
couraging is the fact that these men
havs no time for fads. The destruc-

tive spirit that has swept through
parts of Europe and Asia, wrecking
nations, knows no place in the minds
of the returning men who stood ready
to make the supreme sacrifice for Am
erican ideals OF freedom and fair play.
The men about to quit the service
seem unwilling to tolerate anything
calculated to interfere with the speedy
REIMBURSEMENT and reconstruction that
will bring the country to a normal
basis without delay.
The hundreds of thousands who left
home and country to cross an infested
sea and face the Hunnish hordes on
foreign soil, there to perform their
duty IN q manner that won the admiral
ton of the world, are in no mood to
brook interference that might threaten
the world they have suffered to pro-
tect
The army on tie way home, to re-
sumo peaceful pursuits, gives every in
dication that this influence will be
saneiy, safely and intelhgently exer-
cised. The preponderant majority is
coming back better mentally, morally
and physically. Their vision has been
heightened and broadened, their inter
est in national and international pol
ic;es has been quiekened and, unless ali
indications are misleading, the healthy
influence of the men of 1918 will be
felt for generations for the betterment
of all things American.

A RECOGNITION OF SERVICE

The new silver ehevron for service
outside the actual theatre of opera
tons has, on the whole, apparently
met with general approval both by the
civilian population and by the officers
and men entitled to wear them,
The only criticism heard has been
by few who have said that it merely
marks them beyond question as having
failed IN securing the duty they covet-
ed overseas.
Nothing, Of course, could be further
from the truth or purpose. as the left
