BOXING MOVES IN BAYONET CHARGE | SHOWN BY CHAMPION BENNY LEONARD ‘Phe close relation between boxing proficiency and ability withthe bayo- net was shown tothe marines in training at the Mare Island barracks by Benny Leonard, world’s champion lightweight, recently. He showed them how the tricks employed to land a punch on an opponent serve equally well in jabbing a Boche with a bayonet. He is shown here illustrating the moves in'a bayonet charge, while some of the marines go through the same action, part of them with gloves and the rest with guns.

THE WAR Food Is Now America’s Most Ime portant Asset and Weapon. COMB OUT! THE IDLE MEN Draft the Exempted Men In an Agi: cultura! Army—Put a Million Men at the Disposal of the Farmer. By MARK SWAN, of the Vigilantes, We Americins like to consider our- selves the most wide-awake people in the world, Hustle is our middie name, and we glory in it. When the word American is mentioned, in connection with a Job, or an emergency, we con- jure up a: mental 'picturé of an alert and degermined individual, with the fine frenzy.of conflict finfhing in his eyes, rolling up his sleeves and doing things, We revel in this conception of ourselves, It is very complimentary and very comforting. There is one slight flaw in the picture. It isn’t true. Naturally, when a spectacular op- portunity arises, like the declaration of war last April, we do wake up and do things. We buy bonds, and enlist, and drill; we join defense leagues, and i knit, and make bandages, and all the rest of it—feverishly, sincerely—tak- ing great credit to ourselves, mean- while, for our unalloyed patriotism, and forgettlng, by the w the things we are doing, and mean to do, should have been foreseen, and done‘long ago, quietly, thoroughly, and as\a matter of course. We Are. Asleep. We were warned over and over. again, But we were asleep, And we're asleep now. We're facing the most tre- mendous emergency that has ever con- fronted us, the balg, cold fact that the United States is not going to raise ag much food as we raised last year, that we are not going to raise nearly’ enough to supply Ourselves and our allies with food—and we're sound asleep ! a The lack of result, when the widely. advertised and justly popular, Mother Hubbard sought a bone for her dog,- is known to all readers of juvenile his- tory, and goes to prove that the lady lacked foresight... She had a food problem, and she @{dn't. meet it. Like true descendants-of-old- Mother Hubbard and Rip Van ‘Winkle’ we | stand asleep at the switch, and-<ap- parently we will never, start to, fake action until the cupboard is bare. Then it will be too late. F * This year we have had ‘heatless days and wheatless days and meatless days, Next year we will have eatless, days, but nobody seems to be unduly: distressed, x If a German army were landing on Long Island our inertia would vanish. We would stop discussing what’s going on in Russia, and worrying about who's going to pitch for the Giants— we might even cut out the movies, or the cabarets, for a night or two. We'd drill and shout and work and very likely fight and die. The situation confronting us {s just as serious, though not as dramatic, as if Hindenburg were advancing on Bay- shore.
