SOME THINGS
By SPENCER WILKINSON.
(Professor of .Military History, Ox
ford University.)
(Written for the United Press)
ARTICLE TWO.
London, July 6. (By Mail) The
officer should be the teacher and the
leader of his men. Therefore the rule
should be rigidly enforced that for an
officer the indispensable qualification
is a strong character and a liberal ed
ucation. He must be a person whom
the men will respect, for the private
soldier guages instinctively the spir
itual quality of those who are set
over him. The military education of
the officer must aim at making him a
tactician. All the rest is of slight im
portance. The Toutine of the army,
its methods of administration, the
necessary rudiments of military law
are picked up by the officer insensibly
in the course of his military life.
But unless he starts with clear and
sound ideas of the essential points of
tactics, of the art of fighting, of mak
ing the best of his men's weapons and
the ground, he will be hampered
throughout his career.

series of great schools for the tactical

instruction of young men seeking to
become officers is thereby laying the
best foundation for its futuro army.
Neglect of this matter at tho begin
ning cannot possibly, be remedied by
any subsequent measures.
'Napoleon said, "Tho ideal army
would be that in which every officer,
according to his rank, should know
exactly what he ought to do iii any
situation in which he might find him
self." In the training of the men it is im
possible to exaggerate the importance
of good shooting. Prince Hohenlohe,
a great Prussian artillery commander
of the last generation, was asked what
aro the three great functions of artil
lery and replied: "The first is to hit,
the second is to hit, and the third is
to hit."
In spite of the immense develop
ment of the .power of the gun which
has marked the 20th century, in spite
of the return to hand grenades, bombs
and trench mortars, the most deadly
weapon is always the bullet the
weapon of the infantry soldier. For
one man who falls to the bayonet, for
ten men who 'fall to the shell, hun
dreds fall to the bullet.' But the bul-

let does not hit because the man pulls
tho trigger. It hits because he knows
how to take aim. This is the hard,
material fact, but there is more po
tent spiritual fact. During the ten
years in which I was tho trainer of a
company of infantry I discovored, as
others had done before me, the rela
tion between the bullet and the sol
dier's soul.
It is not an easy thing for a man
lying down with a rifle in his hajid to
hit the figure of a man's head 600
yards away. It requires a great deal
of learning and a great deal of prac
tice. If the young recruit is not care
fully taught he receives the impres
sion that it is impossible for him to
hit the mark and that when he does it
is pure accident. Take a man in that
frame of mind into the front of bat
tle, where the enemy bullets are
whittling in his ears and where men
are falling about him, and he will be
terribly anxious to be somewhere else.
But if a man's practice has proved to
him that 'he can hit the mark with
two bullets out of three, he will bo
in a1 very different state of mind. Ho
will be sorry for the enemy, not for
himself. He will feel sure before his
magazine is emptied that particular
enemy will be off the board. The in
fantry soldiers of the small British
army which Lord French took to
France at the beginning of the war
were able to check tha assaults of
many times their number of Prus
sians. The men could shoot straight
and they knew it. When the Prus
sians came on they mowed them down.
If they had not been good shots their
courage would have availed them
nothing.
On the first day of the battle of
Gettysburg General Doubleday was
very anxious to hold a forward posi
tion athward the Chambersburg pike.
He ordered up Stone's brigade of
Pennsylvania troops and Stone formed
his men behind a ridge sheltered by
a stone fence. It was a .hot place.
The whole ground was alive with
bursting shells. The rrien said "Gen
eral, we've come to stay." Those
men died where they stood.

Bernard M. Baruch.
A sportsman, and an ardent man,
when Bernard M. Baruch, a prominent
Wall street operator, was chosen by
President Wilson as head of the Com
mittee on Raw Materials of the Coun
cil of National Defense, he brought
that ardor to his service to the na
tion. Baruch is tall and. has a disting
uished confidence of bearing, with the
vivid eye of genius and the smile of a
charmeur. Such a good conversa
tionalist is he, and so thoroughly does
he understand his subject that he has
been able to procure for the govern
ment 45,000,000 pounds of copper at a
savings of $10,000,000.
No longer does the government take
the figure of the lowest bidder when
it makes a large purchase. It puts
Bernard M. Baruch on the job, he
figures what the material ought to
cost, then goes out and gets it at that
price. And all without a cent of pay.
He's even paying his own expenses,
for that matter Baruch pays his own
office rent he has a suite of six or
seven rooms pays the salaries of a
dozen of his highest paid clerks, and
to cap it all, pays all the living ex
penses of those clerks while they're in
Washington.

Mt. Emily News
Mt. Emily, , July 20 (Special) 0.
E. Fulkerson and family are camped
on top of Mt. Emily. ' Mr. Fulkerson
has been appointed fire warden for
this district and has been very busy
repairing the telephone !ne and the
road t his enmp. If 'the present hot
and dry spell continues he will no
doubt havo many fires to report be
fore long.
The fir.; timber fire of .lie season
in this s'j'.tu.n occurred last Wednes
day. During the thunder shower that
day a bo1!' of lightning struck a tree
on what is known locally as the Ackles
hill and set fire to the timber. J. H
Blumenstein came up from town after
the storm and discovered the fire.
Next morning he and Fire Warden
Fulkerson put it out. As '.he shower
had dampened the woods considerab'y
only a small area was burned over. As
a rule it is hard to find out how a tim
ber fire gets started but in this case
the evidence was very plain and there
was no doubt about the fire's origin.
The hot weather has not bothered
in much up here. The honest it got
was 81 or 82 in the shal;. Tho hot
nights complained of in town were
nice and cool up here.
Much wood is being hauled and the
road is very dusty in places. We need
a rqin to lay the dust.
Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea
Remedy.
Now is the time to buy a bottle of
this remedy so as tv be prepared in
case that any one of your family
should have an attack of colic or diar

It is worth a hundred times its cost

1 "I got it in both legs before we
reached the Germun lines," a youthful
Australian was relating his experi
ence at Vimy Ridge, "but, Glory be
to God, I fell into a shell-hole and
lay down snug as you please in a
clever place. I lay there for hours
and I heard a great roarin' noise com
in' near me. I knew it was a tank
and I prayed it would not come near
me, me bein' hid in tho shell-hole. But
I heard it go roarin' past quite near
and then it got stuck, and I could
hear it fightin' and strugglin' to get
clear. I never saw it.
"Later in the doy, a lad I knew
came by, slightly wounded. 'Hullo,
Peter," says he, when he saw mo in
the hole. 'For God's sake have you
a water bottle with you?' says I. 'Me
legs is both broke and I can't move to
get a grip of mine.' . He threw me
down his water-bottle and it bein full
of rum and water, :t kept mo goin'.
Then it began to roin, and another
lad, passin' by, saw mo and threw mo
down a water-proof sheet. Late at
night the stretcher-bearers got me.
So they were all Good Samaritans,
the way they helped, them that snw
me lyin' by the wayside."
Cause of Despondency.
Despondency fs often caused by in
digestion and constipation, and quick
ly disappears when Chamberlain's
Tablets are taken. These tablets
strengthen the digestion and move tho
bowels. Adv.
