So far in this course we have been taking up some of the problems which each soldier has to face and solve for himself; how to' adjust himsélf as quickly as possible to the routine of camp life; how to keep himself and all his belongings clean in spite of dif- ficulties in the way; how to look after his own health and comfort; how to take care of arms and equipment; and how to get real enjoyment ,as well as benefit out of Army life, If the course were to stop just at this point. it might leave in your mind 4 false impression. -For after all, the soldler is not an individual player . im the great game of war; he is valuable chiefly as a member of a team. It is 2 team of enormous size. It.is or- zanized in rather a complicated way. This.team we call the Army.

NO TIME FOR AGITATORS. New York has been having its trou- bles with the soap box ora‘ors. Ordi- narily these street speakers would be allowed to have their say up to the point of clogsing the streets, but at a time like this the efforts of the most of them are-devoted to embarrassing the government. They are bent upon agitating a lot of ideas which can accomplish no good but are ligble to cause mfch harm at this time and the course which has been followed by the police in suppressing them is in accord with the law, good judgment and national safety. -~ To a degree these people, some of whom are so..persistant that they have little or no respect for consti- tuted authosity, are carrving on an agitation which is detrimental to the nation’s policy. It is intended to|: handicap, indirectly if not directly, and therefpre must be included under the same sort of activity that is beinz en- gaged in by thcse who insist upon urging peace and even that which was started by the I. W. W, who had planned by their industrial intrigue to block the cfforts which wero being made by this country and therefore play into the hands of the enemy. There is only ene thing to do in handling such trouble makers and djfferent names. .' Need for Teamwork. In" a factory or store or office— wherever large numbers of people are working together—there is almost al- ways some one in direct charge of each sroup of workers. This person may be called a.foreman in the shop, a chief clerk in an office, a floor walker in a department store, or by any one of a number of other titles; in the Arfmy we call him a corporal-or a ser- geant. Going up a step, you know that in every.large concern there are num- crous officers who take charge of var- ‘ous departments of the business such 1s the superintendent, the traffic man- ager. the advertising manager, the sales manager, the secretary. the vice pres- ident, and so on; in the Army we call the men in corresponding positions captains. majors, colonels. and gener- als. Finally, you have at the top of the business concern a president of a reneral mranager who directs every- ing; in the Army he is a command- eral. s gencral likeness between bus- mess organization and Army organ- ization is helpful. but must not be car- ference: The average business concern ried too far. There is one yital dif- i3 samewhat easy going; tae respon- sibility for each piece of work i€ not always definitely fixed. In the Army everybody. on the other hand. s held to the strictest account.

It is far better to take action, even though the thing may not be done in the best possible way than it is to stand still ana debate.” Lack of immediate action in the crisis of a battle might thousands of lives lost ,and possibly the honor of the country stained.

Success in Winning Victories Success in winning victorfes is the object for which thé Army exists, In comparison nothing else counts. Ev- ery officer and every soldier must be ady to make any sacrifice. big or little, to accomplish this abject. An officer may spend years in working out_solutions to military problems, only to find in the end that all the the Army. If this proves to be the eredit for what he has done is swal- lowed up in the general reputaion of case. he has no cause for complaint. .t is the rule of the Army/that every- thing must be done “for the good of the service.” In the samg way you may be called 1pon to carry through some dangerous nission or to perform unpleasant d tles. Every such call is an opportunity o show younsloyalty to the service and to the Nation. Remember in all thesé cases that hundreds of thous- ands of other men in the Army from op to bottom, like yourself are work- ng first and all the time for the suc- secc of the team. It is usually the Army with the trongest team spirit that fights i -ay through to victory. Try to culti- vate that spirit in the National Army, both in yourself and among your com- rades. that is to suppress them at the start. It is useless to play with them or to give them the idea that they will be tolerated. It is thelr dispcsiticn, if they can get an inch to take an ell. They are willing to preach sedition or most anything but patriotism and it is the oniy course to take wken the authorities hold them to a strict obedience of the law. WHAT CONSTANTINE DID. It is an interesting revelation which is made at this time by Premier Ven:- zelos of Greece relative to the activi- ties of ex-King Constantine during the early days of the war. Had Veni- zelos been listyned to and had the al- lied nations exerted the pressure which they @id at a later date and removed Constantine then instead of nearly §ree vears later it is possible that the war would have been over by this time and the process of readjugt- ment be underway in Europe risht now. It was the plan of Venizelos, who was also prime minister back in Feb- ruary, 1915, to throw Greece into the war, to send the Greek army against the Turks by way of the Gallipoli pe: insula with Constantinople as the ob. jective. ‘It was then that he claims that Turkey had an insignificant forcc] of men in that locality and according to his belief it would have been no difficult task for Greece to have cap- tured the Turkish capital Such of course would have Lrought about an entlrely differént situation than exists today, That would have had a treméndous effect upon Bul- garfa and while that nation would probably not have moved against Ser- bia, Greece would have been saved from the disgraceful refusal on the part of Constantine to live up to the treaty which had been arranged with | that country. o Constantine was the man who blocked such action. Constantine then as well as subsequently was playing the game for the kaiser and if CANNING FRUITS. The lesson for today tells of canning truits: Plums—These are usually canned with the skins on, and the effort should be to prevent the skins from cracking. A heavy surup is best for this purpose. It stear is used for eteri'izing, the pressure ;should not be ‘over five pounds. The fruits should be the same in size, shape and color and carefully placed in the jar. Pears—Pears should be neatly peeled and dipped quickly in weak salt water to prevent discoloring. They are then cut into halves and cored and placed into salt water until enough are pre- pared to fill the jars. Pack the halves 0 the cheeks ave to the outside with blossom ends at the bottom of the jar in the first layer. In-the next layer place the stem ends down as far as they will go between the halves below. Continue this way until the jar is full, Apples—The main point here is to have a 1ght olored pack without any discoloring. This is accomplished by keeping all cut surfaces covered with salt water as the dpples are peeled or cut into pieces. Arrange the pieces in the jars as desired, or pack the fruit whole. Berries—These are wazhed and packed carefully in the jars and the syrup is poured in. They retain their shape almost like fresh berries. A heayy sprup is made of three cups of sugar to three of water.

Kamenetz-Podolsk. — The National Geographic society issues the follow- ing war geography bulletin on Kame- netz-Podolsk. one of the important cities in the line of the Austro-German advance on the southeastern front: “With a population of 50000, fully one-half of which is Jewish, Kame- nets-Podolsky is the capital and chief town of the Russian province of Podo. lia.

Prussianism_as we have come to call the doctrine on which Germany bases its attack on the world, believes in itself and its superiority to the rest of us. It believes itself called to spread itself over the rest of us In spite of our liking it or not. It believes in war as the divinely appointed instrument for our conversion. Believing this. it made good and ready for its great crusade. It developed a great. healthy, busy, trained, obedient people—people who, for the sake of the security they en- joyed in the perfectly adjusted machine were willing to accept war which was to make them richer, more powerful, rulers of the earth. This was is but the first campaign in the series which was to Prussianize the earth. Study LITTLE WAR STORIES Winning the Vietoria Cross.
