From the first-class privates are us- ually chosen the corporals. These are the squad leaders. They are appoinited by the commanding officer of the reg- iment on the recommendation of the commanding officer of the company. In addition to the regularly appeinted cor- porals esch company may have one lance corporal. This is a temporary appointment made by the company commander for the purpose of testing the ability of some private whom he'is thinking of recommending for pérman- ent appointment. In case the lance corporal does rot make a good showing, or for any other reason, u¢ mAy be returned to the ranks wher the com- mander of the company sees fit. Next above the corpotal in rank comes the sergeant. There are usual- ly 9 to 11 sergeants in a company. Un- less a sergeant has some oiner duty as- signed to-him. he is normatiy the lead-. er of a platoon. There are hawever. many special duties corstar:'y assigned to sergeints. The frst sergeant (in Army slang, the “top sergeant,”) for example, keeps certain company rec- ords. forms the company in ranks, tranemits orders from rJhe company. commancer. and perforlls many other mportant tasks. THe suptiy sergeant sees to bringing up supplies of all kinds to the company, The mese serseant 100ks. after food. The stable gergeant i rezponsible for ‘the prcper care of ofses ard mules. The colcr sergeant carries the national or regimental col- ors. There are many other grades with- in the rank of sergeant which can not be described kere.. You will xradually n | become :amiliar with them during you army experience. Commissioned Officers. Sergeants and corporals are known as noncommicsioned officers, because théy ars appointed by their regimental commanding officer. COffic.rs of higher ranks are kiown as commissioned, since they hold their rank by virtue of 2 commission issued to them under au- thority of the President of the United which have been pursued in hunting GIVE THE BOYS A SENDOFF, It was only a few weeks ago that people of Norwich turned out by ‘the thousands in the early morning to give a proper sendoff to the members of the coast artillery companies which “ were leaving for the isla forts and _ o enter the federal service. Norwich was of them and it desired to let them know it. This morning, and on guccessive days this week the first of those who " have been accepled under the selec- tive draft to make up the national _ army will leave for the mobilization point at Ayer, Mass. Two of those - young men left the city vesterday and they left with the right spirit for as ome of them said In his eagerness to to the training camp, “I'm glad, as long as I've zot to go, that I am among the first to leave These youn® men are not all going in a body, there being but one a ddy - among the first quota. There-wiil be a much larger number in the next group but Norwich should bestir it- self apd s that they. as well as the coast art: en, are made to under- stand that their townspeople are equally interested in the part which they are going to play In this war, that they appreciate their sacrifice and that their best wishes go out to them for their early return and for their suceessfu] participatian in the task which they are to undertake for . the upholding of American principles 2nd righis. It may be Impossible, when the men | leave ome or two at a time for the _ people to gather for a sendoff each ~ morning, but it is possible to set & day, which might well be the day before *' the next quota leaves, when all or most of the 120 who are to go from | this district can be gotten together | for a ainner and a natriotic demon- { stration in which the public can par- tieipate. This is what other cities of state have been doins and it is but fitting that Norwich should do as | much for those who are golng into = trhining preparatory to being sent to “the front. Norwich has confidence in each and every one of the young men who will represent it in the big ha- tionai army that is being raised. It expects much of them and it kpows that they will Le found true to the trust that is imposed In them. As Presiderit Wilson has well said tI eyes not only of their relatives and friends but of the world wvill be upon them, for they are In séme special sense the soidiers of freedom. The duty of the people of Norwich therefor= at this time is to assemble these prospectiva soldiers, so far as possible and give them a rousing sendoff with food, music, speeches . and Godspeeds and let it be fitting to the service which they have becn call- " ed upon to perform. We want them back soon but we want them to know that this upily is cognizant of the noble part which they are to play. e e —NO. ‘m‘n REFORM. the raids’ which Germany has ng this weele upon England, ' that it has decided upon of tefyor to be carried, tion with the sul a attacks have been made > “upo besaare mu ipon - Al them dcwn through arming the mer- chant ships, the scouring of the seas by destroyers, the hew inventions which are heing employgd have served to reduce the effcctivendss of the un- derwater craft. Another protective measure, which unquestionably has produced good re' sults, is that recently revealed by Ad- miral Behson recarding the employ- ment of warships for the convoying of the merchant vesscls. This of course places thie fighting vessels right in the locality where the submarine attacks can be expected to take place. It means greater safety for the mer- chant ships and greater danger for the lurking foe. It lias not of course re- sulted in any marked reduction in the toll taken by the submarines excep: that it can.be attributed to this cause that for some wesks the number sunk has been less than half of what were belng torpedoed durifiz the height of their - activity. 3 This does not mean of .coufse that the submarine menace has by any medns been overcome. but it is cer- tainly net growing stronger and. with the substantial increase which is be- inz shown in the constmiction of en- tente shipping it is being made more certaln every day that the submarines will never be*able to starve out Eng- land or to win the war.

THE WAR PRIMER y National Geographic Bociety. Podolia—"“When the Austro-Germans, followiny the ‘disorganizition of _the Russian armies on the Gauclan front, crossed the Zrrucz Rivver, which gep- arates Ruesia from Austria-Hungary. they entcred the province of Podolid which next to Moscow. is the most densely populated in the cmpire. Of this province the National Geographic Society :n a_buletin 1ssued today says: “Pod is one of the richest and most fertile regions i all Russia, and is about as large as tre con.hined arcas of Maryiand and Delaware. It lies en- tirely within what is known as Little Russfa, with Séuth Russia bordering it on the'south,_and West Russia on the north. The Bug River. which crosses the province from northwest to south- «ast runs parallel to the Dniester, which forms ihe western boundary. The railroad’ extending from Lemburg to Odessa crosses the province midway between the Bug and Dnlester. “The -allcy of the Bug is somewhat higher than that of the Dniester, and for a great part of ita course the rlvar is hordered swamps and wood- lands largely impenetrable to armi Another rafiroad crosses the proviwrs at right angles to the Lemburg- Odessa =oad, while in the southeastern section there are several oincr liaes. “The climate of the province Is rather cool in summer snd fold In ‘winter. The mean temperature of Washington in Jahuary is 23 degrees: that of the capital of Pod is 24, n the o:her Hand. the mesn tempera- fure of Washington for Juiy is 77 de- grees, while that of Podolia’s capital is 69 deprees.

A great deal of grain s grown and much flour is mbnufactur- ed.

The soll is lareely like that of Towa. and is to a great extent cultivated after western methods, In stead of those usually pravailing in | southeastern Furope! Stock raisinz is also an important industry, and be- fore the war there was a very large trade in horses, cattle, and sheep, with Austria-Hungary “The listorv of the province is full of interest. The davs of the Romans are kept in memory bv the wall of Trajan which passes through several of its districts. When Poland became one of. Furope's principal nhations, Po- dolia was annexed to,jt and formed a part of the Polish €mpire until the last partition which occurred in 1795. “The ;nenace of the invasfon of tho cofl of Podolia and Bessarabie by the Austro-Germars is . probably more apparent than real, at least so far as the predicted forecast drive on Odes- sa is concerned. It must be remem- bered that it is more than 250 miles as the erow flies between ‘he present Dbattle line of the Austro-Germans and the city reputed to bo their oblective.

Not even the “New Yorker Herold” called it irte wervice. In hese issues of these hlpll at least, there was no cheap flihg at America. no_adulation of Germany, no haif-hid seditlon, that called for tie brlln@fl‘» rons. The papers had somehow changed. ‘The attitude toward the government was respectful, evén cordial. The sneering tone was nowhere in evi- dence. There was no censure Of Germany, but neither was there praise of her. There was no preise of Eng- land, but neither was there blame. In ~omparison with Hearst's “New York Ameriocan Viereck's “American Weekly” and the “Irish World,” all printed in the English lanzuage, these fesues of these papérs printed in the German language proved models of loyal devotion An interesting and impcrtant ques- tion arises: Are the edtiors of the German language newspapers sceing {light? Or are they merely seeing a vision of jail?> If they are only slink- ing to cover to escape the coming istorm. ‘he principal fnterest which ftrue Americans will henceforth take in jthem will be to watch closely that they do not sally forth again on any anti-American expeditions If how- ever, they have come to the decision that hvphenism is a danserous delu- sion bringing the punis: t that comes to all who .try to eerve: two masters, and, facing the dilemma, have chosen AmcricA as the country to which they intend henceforth to give the.r full devotion.

The story of the captute of nearly a compary of German Lroo ‘who were trapped in the Dragor’s cove near the tamous CLémin Des Dames when the French ‘poops stormed and carried the German vosition_along that historic road Wwas told to The Asscciated Press correspondent the other day by Fath- er Py, a Franciscan priest who, with a docto-, brgught e prijoners into the French near iines. Fatner Py was acting a~ stretcher-Learer to one af th most celebrated resiments of the French _army, the 152nd Infantry. The Dragon's Cave is near the farm of Hurtebise, or wha: was a farm for it has now become nothing but & heap of bricks, mud and splintered timbers. He is a small man, is Father Py, who when the war broke out was en- gaged on missionary work in Brazil The cali of his country brought him ba to France, and although he a native of the south oi France he vol- unterred for service in the ambulance section of the 152nd. a resiment from the Voages. He explained to the cor- resporndent how on the day of the battle he had been detalleé to go out and tend to the wounded: but not to advance beyond a certain trench, which wae very r the most a vanced French lines. When he re he found no one. ‘he French soidiers had gone forwari with one bound right ir the track of the cur- tain fire put up by the artillery and had reached the German trenches on the other side of the crest out of sight with miraculousiy slight iorses. The priest and a companion looked about in search of wounded but could find none. Then, thinking under the cir- cumstances they were justified in dis- obeying orders they climlied over the top of the trench and went further forwara. S A little farther on they saw a Ger- man running about with bis cloth aflame nnd uttering cries for help, at the sam: time pointing behind him to a hole in the ground where two other men were gesticyjating. The priest went on thinking to find some more ‘wounded men, perbaps men of his 6wn iegiment, but soon i e saw they were Germans. At once he raised his cri cifix in ihe air in the belief it would protect him, and he ¢ontinved to ad- sce.
