TRAINING WORK IN FRANCE The deepest impression one gains after three week with the American Boldiers training in Frasce Is the ab- oniiitaiv A.-irnftstness with which the plendid young men of the army have undertaken the ta-k which Is before them. There is no disposition on their part or on the part of their of ficers to underestimate In any way the seriousness, of that task and the hard work which remains to be done before America can take her place in the actual firing line. The troops feel their responsibility keenly. They are indeed the email but effective nucleus about which will be built the great army and great army machine which the United States hopes eventually to have on the battlefields of France. The men are earnest In their de- Rirft to absorb war knowledge as quickly and as thoroughly as pos slble so that when called upon to act a Instructors to succeeding units as they arrive they will be found eminently qualified. A great deal of the earnestness and this will to do is largely thee result of the enthusl asm of the young officers who but recently Joined the colors and have taken up the business of war with a courage and determination that means, volumes to the future of their country. In return for this service of pa triotism, in return for sacrifices al ready made and the still greater ones yet to come, the officers, and men alike of the expeditionary force want to feel always that they have an understanding of sympathy and support from "the folks back home." That is a sentimental side of the sol dier, whether he be Frenchman, Bri ton or German, in the fighting line, or American in the training camp. Thoughts of Self Past Face to face with the great adven ture all the thoughts of self are things of the past. There la only the thought of home and the hope In the soldier's breast that what he li about to do will be understood and appreciated there. This, spirit al ready pervades the young American army,-" Under the best circumstances the training of " soldiers in the ever changing methods, of modern warfare te a labor requiring months of pa tient and painstaking effort. A thousand of the most valiant and valuable men in the British army, for instance, did not put a foot in France .until after they had had a whole .year of training at home. ; . On the other hand Germany called up boys of 17 years at the begin ning ot last September and cjxt many of them into the trenches, a ter only six weeks of infantry train isg, chitfly in marching and close order drill. This was possible be cause these boys were merely dis tributed among old, seasoned troops stop-gaps in the ranks of decimated divisions. Six months la nearer the ideal training period, but this rule ap plies to armies which have been fighting three years and have all the machinery established through which the men are passed smoothly and un ending toward the front. The building of this machinery the great engine of war which makes behind the lines Is the staggering task now beelng dealt with. It is a task In a way greater than anything France or Great Britain have been called upon to do, for Amerlca'sprob lems are those of France and Great Britain multiplied by three thousand miles of Atlantic ocean. Way Long and Hard The army that Is here realizes all these difficulties but it also has un shakable faith in American genius for accomplishment and above all others. In the American will. The way to the trenchea Is long and hard. The daily drills and tasks neceessarl ly are much the same thing over and over again, all of which means a dearth of real news Just now. But the soldiers are anxious that the folks at home should know that the ab- fence of news does not mean absence of work. Nor can the value of each day's training be actually told until the American soldier at least stands out as the finished product. It Is not known how much longer the French Instructional division will remain with the Americans. The latter are proving so apt and the training camps are so well establish ed that undoubtedly it will be on ly a comparatively hort time when but a few picked French officers and non-commissioner officers will be re tained to assist in the training. Students of the war, which has now entered Its fourth year, are convinc ed that the morale of the troops and the morale of the nations of the en tente will prove to be the final fac tor in deciding the titanic struggle. The morale of the American soldiers In France can easly be estimated by the avidity with which they take up the training In offensive tactics as against defensive woik. The latter L very essential, naturally, but it Is a phase of training likely to prova a bit Irksome to troops imbued with the offensive spirit, as are the Amer icans. They are frankly elncerely anxious, most of them, for their turn In the trenches to come even if at first It Is only temporary sojourn at the front for training purposes. The men are anxious to get a glftnpse of war tnd there, (a bo doubt thr.t after they g it It'wni add -in finite zest to their future training a1 to their ability to train future divi sions. The men are still far enough from the line to hear or see ittle that has to4o with real fighting. Some en thusiasts at the camp have asserted that they could hear the drumming of the big guns at the front but there is little doubt that imagination had something to do with the acuteness of their ears. A brief tour of duty in tho trenches will explain much to them, however, and it will make them appreciate to the full the great deal of training which They now do not wholly understand.

Stone has attained the distinction of bringing a State General Agency to Rockingham coun ty. In Tuesday's Review we gave a Fj nopsi of the standing of the George Washington Life Insurance Company, of which Mr. Stone becomes the Gen eral Agent for the State of North Car olina. It is a substantial and conser vative company, founded In 1906, and operating under rigid Legal Reserve old line laws, a company seemingly worthy of Its illustrious name, with a very large reserve for It 3 policy holders. We are especially "gratified to com ment on Mr. Stone's good fortune, which is to be shared by our town and county. Against the almost insistent advice of other location'7, he ha.? stead ily opposed the selection of any oth er point than Reidsville. Our town and county should feel not only grail-j fled but proud of the added prestige J whitth, both fndirectly and directly , will reflect to our added advantages, j it Is to be hoped that Rockingham county will feel a natural pride in Mr. Stone's accomplishment. It is but one linK more in the chain or good work he has forged for himself and hi county another lasting evidence of the high esteem in which he holds his home and hl3 people. We feel no need to bespeak for him the good will and patronage he so rightfully deserves.
