 Army Day Parade
 Sunday will be remembered by all the men simply because 1t was Army Day. More so because on Sunday we were the participants of one of the greatest military spectacles the South has ever witnessed. Army Day ceremonies were centered around the flag-raising program. The entire two divisions corverged into the parade grounds at 12:45. The 43rd Division extended over a mile long in three columns each. When the parade grounds had been reached. the North marched in on one side of the field in brown uni forms and the South with their light suntan uniforms. The two divisions assembled facing each other. The total number of men present was 6 little over 50000. It was a man. moth spectacle for us and as the bands played most of us felt that feeling that we were glad we're sol- diers of Uncle Sam. The Northern CTS stole the show. For every time the South was mentioned, round of applause rang out. The band struck up a Southern tune and the same thing happened. The South erners were a bit dumbfounded by the Northern reaction towards them. It was rumored that they're a bit sad this evening for the feel ing that seems to have been built up in the past. So Sunday will prob- ably go down in Florida history as the real day the South and the North reunited.
 Connecticut had more than its share of the glory. General Payne, of the entire camp, was the chief observer along with the governor of Florida. Warrant Off, ficer Tata from the i02d Infantry band of New Haven led the entire band consisting of 800 pieces. The Hath Squadron of the 43rd Di- vision from Hartford performed a mass salute to the Flag.

Camp Blanding, Fla, April 6 --
 Army life is making a complete turnabuot. Soldiers have laid aside their rifle and armed themselves with books. Glasses have com menced and as the rumor goes, bright red apples won't help the pupils. The modern soldier not only
 learns in the practical way but also has to know the ways and means theoretically. The main purpose of the course is to know the subject and learn how to instruct the men. This is why the greater number of men are officers or commission ed officers. The privates' turn will come next. The Divisional School program has opened, with more schools to start this week. The Army evidently figures all need 1t, so from the high officers down to the privates. Captain Deadly at present is much concerned over military law and was notified that he was recommended to take the intelligence course at the Com- mander's and Generals Staff School at Fort Leavenworth, starting April

It was believed here that at any hour the German armored divisions which smashed their way to Salon. ika would wheel and, striking at the heart of Greece, hurl themselves at the British line.
 No attempt was made here to minimize the importance of this coming first battle in Greece be- tween the British and German armies.
 Expert commentators told the British public if the British were defeated 1t would most likely mean another Dunkirk, and only Turkey would offer the possibility of an- other bridgehead for another Brit ish thrust against the Germans in southeastern Europe.
 4. There Is 'Tf'' Again
 But they said also that if the British, Greek and Jugoslav allies could successfully stop the Ger mans and push them back the effect of victory might foreshadow an eventual Axis defeat.
 The outspoken Daily Express, newspaper organ of Lord Beaver brook, minister for aircraft produc- ton. said editorially:
 When the Germans in Greece meet the British, we shall learn whether the war may end this year or whether we must take several more years in ending it."
 This philosophy was based on the firm British belief that while the Empire can absorb the shock of big defeats, the Totalitarian countries whose leaders are regarded as supernan, cannot.
 The prospective battle in Greece would put to the test the lessons which the British army learned in France and practiced in Libya.
 Fear was openly expressed that if the British and Greeks proved un- able to stem the Nazi advance in the mountain ranges southwest of Salonika Greece would be doomed, because the Greek army already had been taxed by the Albanian campaign and German dispatches indicated that the Jugoslav army had been cut off by the nazi thrust westward from Skoplje to the neigh
