This is peculiar age he snidf
Many people imagine that the wori4}
is sick OF war, and no doubt they are
right. However, they follow their
imagination by urging resolutions for
the laying down Of arms and, 10 me,
this should not be the case.
at is my opinion that the National

about which the military body Of tbef'

build up our national defenses so that
IL will be fully prepared to give inn

Re echoing the words of General
Pershing, he referred 10 the resulnr
army as very small part OF the post1
sible military strength Of the Nation
and commented upon the fact that in
time of necessity the Nation must de.
pend first upon the volunteer unith
which in reality form the National

The reorganized National Guard, =,
he added, has doubled itself in the
last six months. In this time we have
federally recognized at least 100, ,O0oy
men. At the present time there arS,
40 units awaiting recognition. The

Officers and enlisted men Of the regu :

the men in line, and marched them
straight to dinner. Nobody knows bet
ter than an army officer that full
stomach makes good soldier better
and puts q recruit in just the prope,
frame Of mind.
Colonel Helms in Charge
The officers were gentle but firm. thu
enlisted men were consideration itself
II was bit different from what som,
OF the boys evidently expected, and they
registered their second sigh of rcliet
for the morning. As a matter Of fact
the army officers on duty here at tn,
