How the American ('ountry Hoy %*.. Benefits from Army Training The American country boy that stalwart fellow from the farms and the towns and smaller cities has contributed not only his brawn to Uncle Sam’s armies, but exem- plifies patriotism, initiative, and intelligent discipline as well. Such is the gist of authoritative commentary on the rank and file of the army in every instance where citizen soldiers have been called to the nation's defense. Today the parents of the young men lately called into service are asking what the army in turn does for the coun- try boy Here is the answer: “He gains a broadening experi enee in adventure, friendship, and learning which only service in a common cause can give.” The quotation is from an over seas veteran of the World War who served in ■ hard hitting outfit com posed largely of youths classed generally as country boys. Ampli fying his statement, he stressed the young soldier’s experience in ad venture, friendship, and learning. Boyhood adventures in rambles with his dog, a plunge in the "old swimmin' hole" and explorations in the woods pave the way for his new duties in camp and in the field. Our Army af fords new scenes and still more heart ening adventures. He gains a strong physique, good health, and a clean mind. He comes home equipped for his life work with renewed energy and a brighter outlook upon the world. In friendship he broadens his horizon, meets thousands of young men like him- self from all parts of the Union, and forms enduring com- radeships Knowing his fellow Ameri- cans better he is himself a better American. toy The average coun- boy enters the 1 Army with an inquiring mind and a fund of practical experience, , declares the veteran of 1918. He j is a good student. He has learned | to work with his hands as well as ' his brains. He is quick to grasp the exceptional opportunities which modern military service provides. When he returns to the farm he finds that his skill in handling a “jeep,” a truck, or a tank for Uncle Sam has fitted him expertly to care for agricultural machinery. He has learned the economy of trans- | portation. He has been observing of the practice of farmers in other sections of the country. He sees where improvements may be made. He knows more of conservation. Active service in our Army has been America's greatest training school for the professions, in science, and in business. In every period in the nation's history the leaders in civil life have been largely those who in their youth answered their country’s call to defense, and first of these has been the country boy.
