Ware. THhat was the first shot fired by America in the war and it bagged the first submarine actually known to have been sunk. The potential danger of tlu submarine has been under- estimated because the people have taken it for granted that England has successfully’ coped with the situation and has inflicted more damage than it cares to tell, This may and may not be so, l” entering the war the United States ' undertook the problem of ridding the ocean of highwaymen, murderers, and pirates.

" 45 dpt to be _'mny people not thing, “War Bread” should consist uf Ma‘x’ )“Vn than “Peace Bread.” Thhw "lr Bread” is made of flour uom ‘all of .the wheat kernel, ‘part bf :which is discarded in flour ‘used to ‘fhake ordinary bread. As & war economy. the people of the United States will probably, sooner or later, be compelied to use ¥War Brfead.” - There'isan effort under way now to bring abgut & national law which wiil ‘nham ‘the standard of milling flour. At. present .the law soverning the milling of flour from wheat provides for the use of 73 per cent. of the wheat kernels. Under the‘tiew order the wheat kernel now thrown awady would be utilized. Be- cause of the shortage in the wheat crop last ‘vesr and the. shortage'that the Wheat crop faces this year experts profess to see no reason why wheat bread should not be made into “War Bread.” It has been said that Eng- fish millers are the, best in the world and that the English milling laws are the strictest known in any country. Granted that’ the latter proposition is true, and that Epgland has modified its milling laws to affect an economy among its people the United States need not hesitate to do the same. 8oldierw'in the field demand a goodly portion - of bread.

No applicknt will be received at train- ing camps after May 14.” The order is sisned by Adjutant General, Simpson ana 1s headed ‘“ex- tension “of enrollment time.” The special notification also asks for re- ports ,on the situation in thim terri- tory, which is to be in the New York office, ‘Monday morning, May 7. The Hartford report will be a satisfac- tory ‘one, ‘lnasmuch as the number of applicants and acoeptances in this ity | is thought to be equal if not larger than other New England cities of corresponding population. It was said yesterday at Hartford headquarters that the applicants who desire to take the three months’ training may continue to call at the office to ask questions concerning the matter, and to give their names as desiring to go to Plattsburg. A number of prominent New Brit- ain young men have alrea.dy applied for enrollment. SELF HELPS FOR NEW SOLDIERS SOON TO BE CALLED INTO FIELD. Adviee By United States 'Army Officer Which Is Valuable to Those ble ¥or Service in America’s ¢e e+ s New Legions, ¢ ¢ » ¢ ¢ HOW A SQUAD TAm INTERVAL AND DISTANCE. WHILE FOR MARCHING AND the purposes of drill in the manual of arms a squad is kept in ‘‘close order"—that is, the distance of the crook of the elbow between man and man in each Tank, and forty inches between the front and rear ranks— certain kinds of instruction could not be given in that formation. The setting-up exercises (calesthepics or the Bayonet Drill could not be ex- ecuted at close order, It is essential,, therefore, dlutribute the men . so- that, while” they still remain in a precise and military formation they may - be sufficlently separated for each man to have room for the swing of hig arms and lon or the charge of his bayonet. In ‘order to effect th! the squad wilY execute the comman: “Take Interval”’, or “Take Distance.” When the squad is at a halt, the comman is given “Take Interval— to the Right (Left). . .MARCH.” At “To the Right (Left)”, the four Tear rank men march backward four steps and halt. At the commond of execution ROH”, all men in both ranks face to the right. The leading man in each rank then steps off, When he has advanced four paces, the second man in each rank steps off, keeping four paces behind the leader, Then follaw the third man in each rank, at an interval of four paces from the.two men ahead, each rear rank man abreast of the cor- Tesponding from rank man., The command “HALT!” is given when the Ne. 3 men are three paces .distance from the No. 4 men, and all halt and fact to the front. From this formation, the com- mand “Asesemble” is given when it is desired to bring the squad back. into close order. The comand is worded, «“Aasemble, to the Right (Left)...... MARCH!” .At “March”, the front rank man on the right or left, as the case may be, stands fast, while the rear rank man of the same file closes up behind him to the regulation dis- tance of farty. inches. Thé other men face to the right (or left), move in by the shortest line and face to the front. “Take Distance” varles in that it is executed to the fromt rather than on either flank and provides a different arrangement of the men, although, for the purposes of exercise and in- struction, the result is substantially the same. This movement must be executed after the squad has counted off at “MARCH.” following the pre- paratory command, “Take Distance”, No. 1 of the front rank moves straight to the front. When he has taken four paces, No. 2 of the front rank also moves straight to the front, fol- lowed by No. 3 of the front rank at four paces, who| in turn is followed at four paces by No. 4 of the front rank, Then when No, 4 has his proper. distance, Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the rear rank each step off four paces exactly as the frogt rank men have done. The command “HALT” is given when all have attained their distances. To“Assemble’” the squad, at this command, No. 1 of the front rank stands fast, while the other numbers move forward until they reach their proper places in line. Tomorrow’s . ‘article will descrlbe how the squad may be turned. (Copyright, 1917, by the “Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.) (Washington Star).
