The General's appeal to the graduates was full of feeling and one could well | imagine that the speaker envied hearers, whose privilege is soon be to cross the seas and take part in . the colossal struggle against the Hun. And while his remarks were intended for the benefit of the graduates of our Military Academy, they merit the attention of every man in the army and of every man eligible for service. The concluding phrases of General March's address are espe\cia.uy com- mendable. They were as follows: The war in Europe has shown finally and conclusively that per- sonal courage is the commonest attribute of mankind. All nations have it. It is not dependent up- on traditions, ancestors, or the righteousness of the cause for which men fight. The regular, the volunteer, the drafted man, all have it.

You will find that vour assoclates, from whatever source taken, will do that as well as you. You will be confronted by a perfectly organized military machine. That machine is going to be smached, and the only way it can be smashed is by superior leadership on our part. The last sentence is coming as it does from a high mili- tary authority who enjovs the confi- dence of General Pershing and who has personally visited the scene of battle where the young men from West Point will soon be engaged.
