It is most unfprtunate that there has been such a break as that'which|. has occurred betwesn Premier Keren- sky and General Korniloff of Russia. Fach is a leader of recognized merit and each is needed to handle the prob- lems which are being faced by new Russi: Nothing has hurt Russia jike the trouble which has taken place in the army. That was brought about by ihe removal of the discipline that for- merly -existed, the abolition of the death penalty and the cutting down of the authorit® of the army officers. Too much cuthority was vested in goldiers’ committees and -insubordina- on became general. A colossal mis- ake was made when the new govern- dment put a such change into ef- Yect. The endeavor to bring about re- Jorms was carried too far and this Fould have received no better demon- $tration than ihat which has been Fiven by the refusal of the soldlers to fizht, the desertions to the enemy and e abandonment of important polnts the Russian line z ifixo one has been consclous of this eplorable condition and what led up o it more than General Korniloff. He kneu the remedy that should be ap Plied and he set it forth in plain terms Et Moscow. Such a plan would have done more than anything else to get Russia onto its feet, but in spite of the endorsement it received unsatls factory steps were being made to adopt it. This has culminated in the break, whether it is looked upon as a coun- ter revolution or not, ard it is a weak- éning of the new szovernment which Kerensky should have. left no stone unturned to have avold: THE RED CROSS WORK. - How great was the need for the Jarge fund which was raised through its many chapters in this country dur- ing the past year, is disclosed by the statement which has just been made by Chairman Henry P. Davison in be- Balf of the war council of the Amerl- can Red Cross showing that there has been appropriated up to fhe first of this month the sum of $12,339,681.87 for work in Europe, of which $10,692,- €01 is for use in France ‘These appropriations are made for the purpose of doing everything possi- ble to assist our army and navy in insuring the health and comfort of American soldiers and sailors abroad, and in relievimg destitution and suf- fering among the armies and needy civilian populations of our allies. As i€ in explanation of the large expendi- tures in France, where of course some of our troops are and where others gre going, Chairman Davizon points “out @hat France has suffered beyond description and that pending the time that the full force of American mili- tary effort can be felt Bn the war front, the most effective work that can be done in_Europe by the Ameri- can people in behalf of the cause is to strengthen the courage and keep vigorous the morale of both the French ‘army and the French people. The whole campaign of the American Red Cross is being carried through with the close cooperation of General Persh- ing, but in addition to the work in France commissions are also busy in Rumanta, Servia, Armenia, Russia, Syria and Ttaly while food parcels are zent to the American prisoners in Ger- many three times a fortnight. There can be no question but what there is need for every dollar that is and are that the people of this eontributing an infinite T be- Httie qu o eting scheme which has Been ca on in Washingten has served to bring out s larger opposition than there might ot e have been even though it may not have caused any change of opinion. The right td losk upon the .result as dectstve 1s further established from the fact that President Wilson might In 2 way be sald to have lent his In- fluence to the passage of the amend- ment by his endorsement of the plan and the expression by him of the wish {hat it would mucceed, it being re- membered of course that it f§ through action by the states rather than by a tederal ndment that the president Délieves That woman suffrage should be obtained. = Even though the actidn of the pick- -eters was repudiated by national and state organizations of suffragists, such does not appsar to have been suffi- clent to overcome the opposition which the attitude of that small proportion of the suffragists has caused and what has occurred in Maing may prove to be a valuable: lesson In other states where such an amendment is to be acted upon. 2 WHAT WILL ARGENTINA DO? Tt can be readlly appreciated that the reeent disclosures made by this country, relative to the manner in which the Swedish legation was aid- ing the German representative in Buenos Alres to get messages thropsh to his country, came like a bolt from © clear sky to Argentina, s0 much so ‘hat 1t was declared that it would have been susceptible of serious doubt had it not come from the source which it aid. - But it can hardly be belev:d that Argentina is going to consider that it is a matter which les between Germany and- Sweden and allow it to drop following such action &s they may tak i The charge who got the flweflbhmn t0 handle his me: sages was ufidoubtedly using the rép- resentative of that neutral neighbcr for his own ends, but # cannot be overlooked thiat these very messages were ai against the interests of Argentina. While Germany was en- joying all the privileges which go With the maintenance of dipicmatic rela- tions, 1t was working all the time to ctrike Argentina in the back. It was taking advantage of the cozfidente which was placed in it and its repr-- sentatives and it cannot be anticipated that Argentina is goinz to overiook underhanded. pie~e of business. To say the least Argentina is fentitled to a disavowal of fhe mets by both the Swedish and German goverrnments, and an apology for the conduct of their represertatives and it cught not ‘to be slow gn demandinz them, as well as the Withdrawal of the offending trepresenthtives, THE VIRGIN ISLANDS. While thig country is doing such a magnificent thing for the people of the Philippines, it bezins to look as if it would be called upon to do much tre same sort of thing for its newly .ac- suired territory, the Virgin Islands. That of course was not the object of the United States in the_purchase of this group of small islands. It had in mind only its own protection when it handed over $25,000,000 to Denmark and ran up the American flag, but ac- cording to the first report which has sanctions such &8t s involved in the been made by Governor Oliver the is’- ands are far from self sustatning and as the result of the investigation which he has been making there it is going to cost this country an additional £300,000 each year for the proper majn- tenance of those possessions. But the territory Is ours and we must look out for it. We are going to get the benefit of the strategic posi- tion of the islands tn the protéction of the canal and inasmuch as it is found that there is need of a new school svstem that there is need of civic and . sanitary improve- ‘ments and thiat there is need of Lullding up such pursuits as are en- gaged In there, thére is no use in erying over the situation. We mus make the best of it. put forth our best endeavors to encourage the people to greater efforts and at the same time encourage. if possible, the outlay of more capital there. This of course will mean a_substantial vearly outlay but the quicker it is done the quicker resuits will be obtained which wiil cut down this expenditure. If the isl- ands can be bettered and greater bus- iness dtveloped there .this country =hould be anxious to do the right thing to bring 1t about. EDITORIAL NOTES. The recént disclosures dre going to make the task of the Swedish mission, recently landed inrthis country, more difficuit. With the Dutch selling their bulbs to the Germans for féed kultur in that country ought to become more flowery than ever.

Staff Bran- ches of the Service—) The Staff branches reviewed in_the preceding lesson are the General Staft Corps, Adjutant General's t, ludge Advocate General's Department, e6 Corps, and Signai Corps. The er three staff branches which all tly touch every soldier are the edical Department, _Quartermaster Corps, and Ordinance’ Deprtment. The Medical Department works along. two_distinct lines: First, it tries to keep everyone in the 'ny in_good health, and tfor this purpose keeps Close watch of the cleanliness of camps and buildings, of the quallty and-cook- ing.of food, and the like: @econd. it provides ambulances, hospitals and medical service for the proper care of sick or wounded men. The Medical Department Includes the Dental Corps, the Hospital Corps and the Nurse Corps. Its officers are experienced physicians who have passed rigid ex- aminatisns. Its enlisted men are chief- ly engaged in the difficult and often dangerots work of rescuing the woufid- ed “and transporting them to field and base hospitals. Just a; every man in the army car- ries intrenching tools so that he may protect himself without the help of the Engireer Corps when accessary, 8o he also carries a “first-ald packet” 8o that he may in an emergency perform some of the duties of the Medical De- partment. Every soldier learns how to glve dressing and treatment to his own wounds when he s able to do so, and how to .ssist wounded comrades until men from the Medical Department ar- rive. Medical Department Efficiancy The 'Medical ~Department of the American Armiy is regarded as one of the best in the world. A soldier may fee] ass red he will receive every pos- sible -atrention in case of need. The percentage of recoveries from wounds in the hospitais manned by Americans during the European War tas been ex- ceptionally high. 'he Quartermaster Corps is the bus. iness manager of the Army, It fur- nishes food, clothing, "and most kinds of equipment; provides . horses and mules; arranges for tramsportation takes charge of money; buysesupplies: pays troops; and keeps on hand stores of supplies. _ The importance of all this ‘work can hardiy be overstated. Napoleon said “Aa army travels on its bellv,” meaning that soldiers must be well fed and well supplied if they are to fight effectively. This is even more neces sary today than it was in Napoleon's time. In modecrn warfare the scale of fighting cnd-the quantities of supplies are so tremendous that the duties of the Quarternister Corps are muitiplied be- yond any previous experierce. The officers of the Quartermaster s ot! Corps mist be able Business men. Many of them have held important business positions. The enlisted men of the corps are skilled in such occupations as blacksm: hing, painting, driving teams and trucks, baking bread and the like: Worx of Ordnance Department Of the same general character is the ‘work of the Ordnance Depart- ment, w.ich furnishes the guns, am- munitio ., and other supplies needed for fighting. Several times during the nt war whole armies ha: verely because of the lack of muni- tions. 'The quantity of ammunition used daily is enormous. During the French offensive of June, 1917, 12,600, 000 shots were fired from artilledy Biitse actial.theatee of War the sm> munition ‘service is under the con- trol of the Fleld Artillery. Bringing up supplies of ammunition to troops and to batteries in action is one of the most essential dutie on the bat- tlefleld. The w agons or trucks car- rying ammunition must be driven when necessary within easy reach of the fir- ing line. " Sometimes there i¥’ an oppor- tunity here for the display of resource- fulness and courage far above the ordi- nary requirements of the service. At the second Battle of Ypres in ril, 1915, the Third Battery in the ird Brigade of the Cancdian Field Artillery galloped into position within a few Hundred yards of the German front, where they did siiant work fighting sgainst overwhelming odds to hold back the enemy’s onsiaught. - Af- ter a tim. it became necessary to bring up high explosive shells. One of the Canadia : gunners tells how they were brought- . “The ammunition wagon containing them came galloping across the open fleld under a heavy fire, tha men lash- ing theic horses and velling like mad. The horses were simply rrazed. Some of them had been hit by bullets, and { when they neared our guns the men could not stop them. 1t looked as though they would go kight on to the German lines. There -was only one thing to do: The rider of the leading horses drew his revolver and _shot them dead. They went down ,with the other horses and men and the wagon rolling over ard over them. With ihe high_exniosive sheils we tore the trees to bits and left the.whole place open. then our infantry, juickly followiy up the cdvantage, drove the Teuim s back.” The Pightin~ Teom When the three fighting’ arms and the nine staff corps are all brought together under one control they form what we may call “the fighting team™. This is the team in which vyou and every ocher soldier must be ready to play your part. The smallest unit in which all these branches of the service is represented is known as a division. Under present reguiations an Infantry division is made up of three Infantry brigades: one brigade of Field Artillery: one regiment of Cavalry: one regiment of Cavalry: one reximent of Fngineers: on: battalion of nal Corps: ene squadror of airplanes: tosether with fleld trains ard eombat (-ains earrs- ing rations. baggage, ammurition, and all kinds of supplies. A d jon. thercs fore, is .. itself a complete emall arm When ar full strength it includes .. 334 officers and men. A feld army is ‘made up of a number of si.ch divisions. i Views of the Vigilantss 5 ARE*WE BECCMING TOO TOLERANT? Hanson Towne of Ths N By Charles I: seems 'to be the fashion in these cataclysmic days to e over-tolerant. It is supposed to be & sign of strength and charuéter to say that the German people are not to b> blamed for any part they have plaved in this terrible game. (e is said to be open-minded who listens patiently while a_ pro- German_street speaker condemns our allies anc all ‘their works. Peace terms that are projected by well-meaning but misguided peopie never fail to suggest that of indedmin- ties the'e may be nowe. that the world may be readjusted, just as if nothing had occurred. that &trick- en Belgivm may rise from its pathetic position; that the Lusitaria may be forgotter:: that Germany, the cause of the world’s greatest sorrow, may se- renely resume her way in the affair of natioge. There must be no recrim- inations. no il-lfeeling. no honest hot- ror of all that has uni:appily happened. We must “forgive and forget” We must “live and let live” We must feel no righteous wrath the wrong the wor:l has suffered. \We must not blame the German people. We must blame only Prussianism and kalserism. And how, then, are we to voice our blame If net by open and ioad protest? Why fs it not as healihy and honest to hate Wrong.as it is to love right? If we are to deplore nothing; if, after this carnage, we are to sit in friendly council with the flends who have de- strcyed all that made life beautiful; if we are 1o say that vandals and out- laws ar- to be loved as much as are friends and lovers, then what has it all been for? What processes of peace— of lasting peace—can be brought about 01 such a basis? 24 Too much tolerance is the result of weakness. It is the way of the paci- fist—the expedient wuy out of present and immediate trouble. Tt is-the fool's part to forgive-and fotget utterly a wrong that should mever have been committed—a wrong that It will take years, perhaps centurfes, to right. It they knew not waat they aidy But God knows they knew: and if, with sueh knowledge, they fought this fight against civilization, then ecivilization must ‘bring the Prussians, to thelr senses. 1f, after it is all over, they:are to be taken to our bosoms as tired children are, the eftcft to bring weal- ization home to them has gome for naught. and we are just where we started.
