The Times has had several re-
quests from among it's many read

achievements of the army In peace
time. This is a large order and
from time to time this department
will make mention of the peacetime
activities of the army. 1t Is we'll
to recall that it was the American
army which paved the way for
most OF the pioneering development
or this country and made possible
the settlement of the great region
west Of the Mississippi river. The
famous Lewis and Clark expedition
which opened up the Northwest
was conducted by two engineer Of
Ulcers of the army. The first rail.
road In the country was constructed
by another officer of the corps of
engineers. The Panama canal was
constructed under the direction OF
army engineer officers and the
same corps built the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad as we'll as the New
York, New Haven and Hartford
line. The original construction OF
practically every transcontinental
railroad in the United States was
done by the army.

The career of Colonel Penhallow
removes all doubt that romance
doesn't exist in the medical profess

adventure in the medical field as in
that of the profession of arms. A ma.
tionaI guardsman of his native

branch of the service without his
personal approval. Lieutenant Bar

from Major General Amos A. F'rieF,
