THE PNEUMONIA MONTH.

March is a typical pneumonia month
and usually gives high rate of NOR
tality for the disease. After long and
hard winter, the system loses much of
its resistance and people grow careless.
When every cold, no matter how slight,
is given prompt and intelligent atten-
ton, there is much less danger of pneu-
monia. 1t should be borne in mind that
pneumonia is a germ disease and breeds
in the throat. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is an expectorant and cleans
out the germ ladened mucus and not
only cures a cold but prevents its result
ing in pneumonia. 1t is pleasant to
taTe. Children take it willingly.

EVERY OFFICER AN
 ATHLETE, U. 5. PLAN

Washington, Sept. S-"Every off, cer an athlete,'' is the big idea be- hind the training of the future gener- ais and admirals of ~the American Army and Navy today.
 At Annapolis Rear Admiral Henry B. Wilson. the superintendent, is back Ing every nlidshipman to tackle as many forms of sport as his talents permit. At present of the 2,20O fu- ture naval officers more than 1900 are
 out for some Athletic team. Be- sides the popular favorites of base ball and football, there are track, basketball, 1acr osse hockey, swim ming, fencing, tennis boxing and wrestling teams at the academy, so that the cadet has a wide field of op- erations.
 Sports have become a, part of the curriculum at West Point, the army s school During the four-year course of training the cadet is required to devote 8. certain number of hours every week to a regular schedule of various sports, similar to the rhnge at Annapolis, and including among others polo. The routine gyrnna- sium training is carried out at both academies in addition to the various athletic competitions.
 The underlying idea, of course. is that if every officer is qualified ex- ponent of several forms of athletic training when that officer has com mand of a group of men later he will be an interested and capable leader In their recreation as we'll as in the field of war.
