He has to train a certain number of hours each day. This gives mm regular eirrcuw. has o go to bed and 'get up a cer tain time and this gives him enough and regular sleep. He is vsccinsted to prevent different diseases so his health Is protected, but in case of sickne he is properly cared for In a hospital with all hills paid. He must be ready to go at a min ute's notice, any time that the or der ia given, and oby orders promp tly. He is' taught to keep his shoes always clean and polished and his uniform cleaned and pressed. His tent mut be kept neat and clean, and his bed must be made.
