The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1920-08-21
BY E. d. KEILMANN.

IT is a new national guard, as any
of the "Old TIMERS who visit the Re-
publican Flats in the course of the
coming week can see at half a glance
There was time when the Kansas
guard units were very nondescript ag-
gregations. There was a time later
when the state'es troops were better
organized and better drilled but they
were at most only dress parade al
faih. Now the service men have
changed all that.
If war was to be declared tomor-
row, Kansas would be able to place in
the field one of the most efficient lit
tie regiments of infantry and one OF
the best squadrons of cavalry that
ever took part in a campaign. The.
service men have seen to that. If that
declaration of war is postponed year.
Kansas will be able to add to the pres
ent force another regiment of -infan-
try and a battalion of field artillery.
just as efficient. The service men
will see to that, too.
In the preceding paragraph. the
Fourth Kansas infantry was referred
to as a little regiment. The word
little" was used comparatively The
regiment is little in comparison with
the huge units that took part in the
recent world war. 1t is. however, a
mighty big unit as compared with the
others on the Fort Riley reservation.
1t may be of information to the gen
army recruiting for nearly eighteen
months, the entire Sixth division now
stationed at Camp Funstan only mus
ters some $500 men. Maybe the serv-
ice men have seen to that also.
Too Busy for Craps.
They do not call the stay of the reg
fment at Fort Riley an encampment,
this year. 1t is an instruction camp.

the chief idea was parades and sham
battles for an admiring public. has

that, too.
There is not one company or platoon

the machine gunners for a reputation
of being on the job. Their horses are
their pride and instead of dilating on
the special ferocity of their mounts as
do the NJ. G. men with their mules.
they take special pride in recounting
the latest bit of intelligence shown by
their horses. If ever animals showed
real care. those 126 troopers mounts
do. They shine. they are fat and they
return the affection the troopers
shower upon them.
When not at drill of some sort and
the cavalry men are practically al
ways at some sort of drill, they are
cleaning or polishing their equipment.
Did you ever see all one cavalryma n S
equipment spread out for inspection !?
If you did you would wonder what he
does with it all. In addition to rifle,
pistol and saber, he of course has the
saddle. picket rope nose bag and all
the rest of his horse equipment and in
addition carries all the stuff the in
fantryman has on his back. Oh, yes,
the cavalryman has plenty of equip
mont to clean.
But if the machine gun company
and the four troops of cavalry are
actually new to the Kansas guards,
so are the infantry companies. They
are not the same sort of infantry the
state has always known. They are
clean, intelligent and smooth working
foot soldiers and, oh, gosh, they do
shoot. The program at Fort Riley Is
far from the same as usually faced
the infantrymen of former years.
This year. each organization spends
two days of the period in camp, on
the target range. where under Col W

the Fourth" is doing them. There is
little skylarking. little boisterous Yell

There are almost no crap games. Even
the service men with their experience
in the latter on shipboard and in the
trenches abroad, are to blame for that.
They are keeping every one so busy
there is no time for craps.
Not only would the Kansas units
answer that probable call to arms with
as finely trained body of men as ever
left the state, but those men would
go from home completely equipped
and ready for the front lines From
rifles to shoe strings the Kansas guard
now has everything the Tables of
Equipment" of the war department
calls for. What is more, each unit has
enough of that equipment to supply
each man when their organization is
recruited to it's full war strength of
10 men each. Now they are re-
quired to maintain only minimum of
fifty men with three officers.
\ The equipment furnished the civil
ian soldiers of Kansas figured at its
government contract price is worth 4

1t is new equipment, too. In
former years the national guard had
to be content with the cast-offs from
the regular army. When the newly
formed cavalry was to draw horses
from the remount station, a telegram
was sent from the war department
couched in words something like
these: These horses are for Kansas

seen what civilian soldiers could do
when properly equipped and the new

cause for complaint on the tools of

Fire originating in the oil room at
II o'clock this morning resulted in the
destruction of nearly the entire whole

estimated at between $4,000 and S.

The cause of the fire is not certain.
but it is believed to have resulted
from spontaneous combustion. IL was
preceded by an explosion in the oil
room. where many kinds of crude
chemicals were stored. The necessity
of flooding the first floor to prevent
the spread of the flames resulted in a
heavy water loss.
Fircmen Used Gas Masks.
The oil room is located in the base

FOR PUPILS GOOD
Superintendent Stout Discusses
/ Ten Months School Plan.
SAYS Students Have Been Hur-
ried Too Much. Heretofore.

when the board of education de-
cided upon the ten months school plan
it was thinking wholly of the good Of
the pupils" said Supt. A. ]. Stout, of
the Topeka puplic schools today. Stout
has returned from a several weeks
vacation in the east. He was asked for
his opinion as to the petitions pre-
sented against the ten months plan.
THE board feels that it would be
much better to take the school pro-
gram in a leisurely manner-much
better for the pupiIs-than to crowd
the work, as has been done in the last
two years. OF course the last two
years have been abnormal. because of
influenza epidemics and the coal
shortage enforcing vacations EsseT-
tials were hurried over and omitted in
some cases. I think it is better to take
plenty of time for complete program
during the coming year." Superintead
ent Stout said.
THE ten months plan is in no way
permanent" he said. 1T is merely on
trial If not successful it will be
abandond. It has been found success
full in New York, Chicago, Cincinnati,
Cleveland. Detroit. Kansas City, ST
Louis and other cities"
Stout declined to state when the
thought the board of education would
reconsider the decision for ten months
school
When ] left Topeka in July no OBJ
lection had been raised to the plan. A
resolution which had come up in a
parent-teachers meeting fer recon
sideration of the plan. was laid on the
table. with little sentiment registered
against the ten months school," he
