a HAND PICKED ARMY.

Under the new legislation limiting its personnel
to 10000 men the United States army, while a
small one, will be avery select one.
This country Has never maintained q large reg
ular army. It is not 4 military nation. II has nc. mil
Eitary ambitions. It has not been in danger Of inva-
sion: by a powerful %neighbor. Its eastern and west
ern boundaries are the two great oceans. North Of
IT srthe Canadian dominion, separated from 1t by an
invisible line, along which there has not for more
than a century been a fort a soldier or q gun. South
ward lies Mexico, under conditions which have
been productive Of anxiety, but which have
not for many years calledsfo the. assembling Of any
large bodies of troops. The function Of our army Is
to maintain the authority of the government It home
whenever that authority is challenged, and to SER
as a nucleus for the formation of an army Of ade-
quate size in the remote contingency Of a great for
eign war.
Recent legislation has called for the reduction
OF the size of the army by about one-fourth. This
does not mean that there will be no more recruiting
Men in excess of the number permitted by law have
been discharged, and of those who remain others
will retire from time to time by reason Of the expira-
ton OF their enlistment periods and from other
causes. To fill the vacancies thus caused enlistment
Will be carried on, but on a moderate scale, and
under conditions which will cause army service to
be regarded as more of a privilege than it has~ever
been in the past.
Because fewer men will be needed, there will be
a very careful selection Of those who offer them
selves. The recruiting authorities will. be in a po-
sition to pick and choose, and there will be some
thorough sitting. The applicant will find himself
subjected to a most thorough aDd rigid inspection
before he can be accepted.
He must be over 10 years of age. He must be
able to read and write English. The army will con-
tinue its educational work, but it will not, as in the
past, accept those who are wholly ~illiterate. The
requirements call for just about as near per-
lection as it is possible for human beings: to reach.
In the mental tests the candidate must demonstrate
his possession of a quick, alert intelligence. 'And he
50 chosen the new army will be something to be
proud OF.
