There is no better illustration of the citizenship and health-producing benefits of our military training sys m than the training amps. Thirty-five thousand young men will be gathered together this Summer from every State in the Union. There will be young men from the slums of the large cities; there will be young men from the homes of our most wealthy and most prominent citi- zens. The son of the President of the United States will be on the same plane, at this coming Summer's camp, as the son of a recent emigrant to our Young men from farms will mingle with young men from the in- dustrial centers. These camps have a great leveling influence and give the voung men attending. a splendid op portunity to understand the viewpoint of others who have entirely different 7 which has so | that | the | Of course, | Navy | is con- | Na- | ately Neéded Instruction.

Out of every four | young men drafted one had to be turned down for disabjlity of some kind. This serious situation must be corrected. The most practical way of accomplishing this is through the ex- tension of the citizens’ military train ing camp idea. At the present time many of the young men who apply are unable to |@ualify physically. In these cases, | tactful letters are written by the offi- cers in charge to the parents of the young men, stating the cause for their Son's rejection and suggesting that the family physictan be consulted so that the defects may be corrected, and | so that the young man might be physically improved to such an ex tent that he could attend the camp | next r The officers and enlisted men of the | Regular Army, Natlonal Guard whe conduct these are performing a great national service.
