T O HARRIS YOUNGS VILLI, N. 0. _ AS THE EDITOR SEES If ? Military Training Each Bummer, as the time for the organization of the citizens' military truining camps approaches, our at tention Is directed anew to the sub ject of preparedness. The training camp system is our strongest reli ance in building up at short notice a citizen's army when a war emer gency threatens. But there Is another influence that contributes materially to the effectiveness of those camps and permits them to graduate their members with such a high degree of prlficiency in the short time avail able for instruction. Many of the young men who enroll in the Army camps are high scnool students or have recently graduated from high schools. . In most of those schools there are cadet organizations in which the boys get their first instruction in the use of arms and in military tactics. In many of then, not only the manual of arms and marching ? drill are taught, but the cadets are initiated into battle formations, rushing the enemy, effective use of cover, and other accomplishments that make the efficient soldier. In many of our school organiza tions Army officers are detailed as instructors and Army paraphernalia is loaned for the use of the cadet corps. The school authorities sanc tion the military exercises but in too many instances military drill is not recognized as a part of the regular school curriculum. Credits are not given for military proficiency as for high standing in other studies, school hour periods are not allotcd for military study, and the student is not properly encouraged to enroll in the cadet corps. Compulsory military training is antagonistic to American democracy and students in "our schools should not be coeroed into it; nevertheless, military instruction should be ele vated to the same plane as other stu dies in the recognized school course. The mental discipline that comes from Instant obediqnoe to commands, tire coordination of mind and body that unconsciously follows, and the training of the individual as one unit of an orderly mass, have a psycho logical value not found elsewhere in the school system. The equipment of 'a student In worthily citizenship is decidely lackf lt:g 1f he has been denied generous experience in all those factors of character building. The indirect ben fits from military instruction per haps outweigh the direct but the knowledge gained by the young cadet will prove of immense value to him and to his country should another emergency like that of 1917 con front us. Every school, superintendent and beard of education should ponder the matter and accord to military drill the part which it rightly deserves in our system of public education. Skill and knowledge are worth no more than ignorance, if a man doesnt know how to convert them into cash.

Regardless of whether we ' were descended from the ape the fashion experts all spend their tirte trying to make monkeys out of us. AN EDITORIAL By I)r Frank Crane I am not one of those who run away with catch words, and see red at a war cry. I am an incurable pacliist and utter ly Opposed to that old system under which the governments of the world still function the system that renders rival national armies and navies a necessity. But for all that I believe the army and navy should be retained by every nation not so much as a defense, but as furnishing the best machinery of education. I believe In military training not only for every boy but for every girl. This military training in no sense implies training to murder or develop, ing the lust to kill. But it does imply certain things that are of more necessity for youth than other things that can be supplied elsewhere. The child learns best, "by military training, the meaning of discipline and perhaps more, souls are lost and bodies ruined by lack of discipline than from any other cause. The child by military training, has developed in him a sense of respon. slbillty aid this is the core of good citizenship. The child by military training, gets rractlcal and invaluable physical de. velopment. . He learns to make use of that tonl^ which more than any other, can put iron lh the soul?hardship. He learns decision; and Indei islon is the mother of all slobs. He learns obedience; not only obedience to his superiors but obed ience to himself, which is more im portant. He learns team play; and after all, the ability to cooperate is , of more value to the human being than the ability to compete. If he learns "jingoism" and the bunk about the glory of war and Con quest, it Is not because this sort of rtbblsh is in any wise essential to military training Military training does not imply that those who receive it shall be come professional soldiers, but In a free democracy every human being is a potential soldier, he or she may be called upon at any time to sacrifice fortune or life for the Common good, and perhaps the most Important thing in military training la the fact that thn youth has his budding Sgo properly pruned he is mads to feel thst then la The BULLS EYE "Editor mod QeneralManaqer WILL ROGERS Another Bull* Durham adver tisement by Will Rogers.Ziegfeld Follies and screen star, and lead ing American humorist. More coming. Watch for chem. Those Two Boys Chauncey and W ill 1JUST saw a nice write up and ChaunceyDepew's picture in all the papers where he told of his first watch which was an Elgin. Said he kept it for years and somebody stole iron a New York Central train. (That's what he gets for riding on his own Railroad.) What does he need a watch for anyway, time means nothingto him. He was inThe Follies the other day, and I introduced him and made him make a speech, he said, "I have been entertaining au diences for 91 years and have never found it necessary to usea Lariat yet". The. old rascal hung one on me. Now the moral of his story as I could gather it is don't have an Elgin Watch, somebody will steal it. So my story is carry 'Bull' Durham, they may borrow it, but nobody will steal it. Now after looking at this I don't know whether it is an ad for Elgin Watches, Chauncey Depew, The Follies or 'Bull' Durham. Well, they are all good. $cr? P. S. I'm going to write some more pieces that wiil appear in this paper. Keep look ing for the in. MORE OF EVERYTHING for a lot less money. That's the net of this 'Bull' Durham propo sition.

One of the cardinal paragraphs of my creed is that every boy and girl in America should be required to give at least one year to the service of Uncle Sam. ' Too many grown people are so de. flcient in education that they do not realize the supremacy of the claims of their nation and of humanity upon them. Military training might easily be. come the very best means of develop, lag the civic nerve. And one great trouble with the country Is that too commonly this nerve Is atrophied.
