the Mexican war. 1t suddenly be-
came the mission of these men. with
out preconceived plans, to impart that
knowledge to vast citizen armies
Their visual experience had been
limited generally to company and
battalion units. 1 think it is fair to
say that only one leader showed any
conception of the practical business of
troop leading in 1851. This was
Stonewau Jackson, and it is interest
ing to remember that he had left the
piddling routine of the old army
shortly after the Mexican war with the
deliberate object of seeking an oppor-
tunity to study military art.
How We Developed Power.
by the end of the war we were
the greatest military power on earth.
We had developed a powerful mill
tary organization. We had leaders
and staff officers fndoctrinated with
the latest conceptions or strategy and
tactics. Our supply officers had over
come the difficulties of Shernan's ad-
vance to Atlanta. We had a general
staff in fact. tho not in name.
Even after the demobiliza ton of
the army we remained for a time q
great military power. For few
years our armies were still potentially
in being, prepared if necessary for
a speedy recall to the colors- This
was so fully recognized by the world
that in 1857 a mere hint sufficed to
cause a withdrawal of the French
armies from Mexico"

opinion of military experts on the sub

'It has been the practice of the
United States upon the outbreak of
war to expand a small professional

professional war army These expan-
sions have always been perfected
without anw perpetuity of doctrine or
organization, thru which the expert
ence generated in one expansion could
be utilized in the next. Or, to put it
another way, at certain crises in our
history, with vast expenditure of
treasure and human energy, we have
erected a great war organization and
then have demolished that organiza-

provision for making that expenditure

we had no national military system,

had was concentrated in a limited

today are listening nervously for any
sort of a tip as to what congress in
tends to do about the military forces
of the United States
The younger officers are frankly
anxious about their jobs. and they will
tell YOU earnestly how unjust it would
be to ruin the career of one who has
spent four of the best years of his
life in such a place as West Point,
only to be ruled out at time when
he seems to be in a fair way to real
ize upon his investment of weary
weeks endured under the scourge of
ruthless discipline
World War Is Cited.
Officers of higher rank will give
you a lengthy disquisition upon the
unsoundness of a policy which per-
raits a nation to run from one extreme
to the other in the matter of national
defense and Will quote you long fig
ures to show how much more mex
pensive the world war would have
been if the government hadn't made
such errors more recently.
From Secretary of War Weeks on
down the army is frankly worried.
The higher authorities realize that.
like the demand for reform, the de-
mand for national defense comes in
waves. but they are fearful that in the
hysteria for reduction OF armament
the country will lose much OF the val
liable ground it gained by the expert
ences Of the world war.

EPISCOPALIANS BEGIN CHURCH
 HEALINCS

DENVER, April 5.-"Old-fashioned religious healing of the sick" will feature Lenten services to be con- ducted by Episcopal churches of this city, according to announcement by Rev. R. B. H. Bell, pastor of St. Thom- ass Episcopal church of Denver.
 For the first time in the history of the Episcopal church in America, it was believed, healing services, in which virtually all Episcopal churches of the city will take part, will be held, it was announced, in some down. town church during this month. Quietly and unostentatiously what was termed practical religious heal | ing" has been conducted for some time by Dr. Bell and by the Rev. Charles Brady, of St. Barnabas' Church. ! These two clergymen, with the Rt. Rev. Fred Ingley, Episcopal Bishop Coajutor of the Colorado diocese, have worked out the plan for the down. town mission, where solemn meetings will be held for all seeking relief.
 "The neglect of healing by the churches of today has been a great mistake" said Dr. Bell. q believe in the power of Jesus Christ to heal the sick and make cripples whole through the church today, just as much as He
 ciples carried on the work after His ascension
 1 By this we do not mean that
 healing should be made into a great public hurrah, and we have done what ! has been done in a quiet manner
 Prayers for the sick must be in all sincerity, without any idea toward
 public notoriety. Those who want to
 be healed must give themselves up to | Christ beforehand"
 | Dr. Bell declared that for the past year healing of the sick by clergy men has been ordered by the Church
 of England throughout the British l Empire, and it is now the duty of
 every clergyman in that church to carpy on the work of healing as part | of the church's regular work.
