The News, with its usual character
istics for inaccuracy, prints yesterday
morning two letters phrported to be
signed by men from the Naval Air
Station. BY way of preface the News
makes the statement that one of the
letters in question was refused publ
cation by The Journal. Like some of
the news the paper prints, it failed to
verify the statement, and The Journal
wishes to say THAT NO SUCH LIT
TER WAS RENDERED TO THE
JOURNAL FOR PUBLICATION.

from a strict compliance with the
letter and spirit Of the law, the danger
to- be avoided, etc, and he is always
accessible to help the new soldier ad-
just himself to his new surroundings
by individual personal talks. He visits
the sick in the hospital. He is in
sympathetic contact with the work Of
education and recreational officers,
and brings to the aid of the medical
officer the powerful forces Of religion
and morals in their bearing upon the
proper care Of the body. He en-
deavors by word and example to point
out the proper function and practical
everyday value of religion the life
of the normal man. And the chap
iains are so distributed amongst the
various religious bodies that every
soldier can find the kind >of religious
service to which he has been accus-
toned at home.
Best Environment for Development.
In short, the army affords the best
possible environment for the moral,
physical and mental development of
the average young man. Just how
much development the individual SOL
der gets from his service depends en-
tirely upon himself. In the army, as
elsewhere. the man who shirks, who
yields to temptations, who neglects
his opportunities, fails. But the young
man who means business can, by
tour of duty in the United States
Army lay the foundations of a char
acter that will enable him success
fully to cope with the world and wrest
from it success and happiness, no mat

Character Building

Army RecrlIitinrr NausA

(By Chaplain Horace II. Fell, C. NJ. t
c., Camp Jackson, s. c., in U. S.
Army Recruiting News.)
Character lies at the foundation OF
all success and happiness. There is
no better place to lay this foundation
than the army. The soldier must have
strong body and an alert mind--a
perfect machine. But he is more than
machine. Back of the machine must
be the man himself 1t is the char
acter of the man that counts in the
long run. Officers responsible for the
training of the soldier recognize this
fact. Hence conditions surrounding
the soldiers life are so organized as
to produce the best possible environ
ment for the development of character.
In addition to the daily drill and
physical exercises which bring the
body to physical perfection, and the
lectures by. the medical officers which
teach the soldier how to keep his
body fit, certain other agencies are
brought into play for the mans bene-
fit. Thus the Educational and Recrea-
tional Department affords the soldier
opportunity to develop his natural
abilities by a scientific training of
mind and hand to their highest effici-
ency.
Work Hard and Play Hard.
In the army we believe that all
work and no play does not make for
efficiency or success in life. we try
to teach men to work hard when they
work, and how to play with zest when
they play Athletic games teach men
how to think quickly and to do team
work, important factors for success in
life. The library, theater and recrea-
ton rooms afford opportunities for
other forms of recreation. The Red
Cross, in every camp, stands ready
to shoulder the worries of the soldier
when problems causing anxiety arise
at home. Add to this wholesome food,
good clothes and a comfortable bed
and we have ideal conditions for the
development of mental and physical
perfection
But a sound body and a well trained
mind do not make a man. These are
the real mans machine. To be sue
cessful the man must be able to con-
troll and drive this machine. The
more powerful the machine the great
er the need for a trained driver.
Control High Power Machine.
1t remains for the chaplain to add
the final touch to the character build
ing process. He tries to teach the
soldier how to control the high power
machine the army training has pro-
duced. His work touches every de-
partment Of the soldiers life. In ad-
dition to stated religious services on
Sunday, he meets the recruits in
groups on week days for lectures in
which he explains the conditions of
army life the reasons for every regu-
