Wrigley, Jr., Chicago) t-hi How fortunate it would have been co had we adopted universal military an training five or ten years ago. It trj would have meant much in the pres- Ve N ent crisis?it probably would have m) kept us out of the war. But it's no sti use to cry over spilt milk. The ques- ta tion is, what shall we do now? Every jt thoughtful man must feel that a na- ar] tion unable to protect itself promptly su is blind to the tragic possibilities of ap its heedlessness. War comes unex- Df pectedly and, as in our own case, it tri is sometimes forced upon an innocent bystander." For three years we sub- tic mitted to insult and injury, until for- y0 bearance ceased to be a virtue and en there was nothing left for us but to w< assert our rights and to defend them, ha No country in the world hates war ejj more than we do. Only extreme m: provocation would induce us to take u] up artns. Experience shows abundantly that a peace-loving nation is ca not safe because of that fact. Bel- ou gium and some of the Balkan states th are evidence of it. th As the world is constituted, and na has been through thousands of years afl of strife, there is only one safe plan, he and that is to follow the advice of 8j] Washington?in time of peace, pre- ar pare for war. If we had done this a m few years ago, we would have saved Bi billions of dollars and tens of thou- p sands of lives. It is common knowl- rc edge in military circles that trained tii men, by knowing how to take care of themselves in camp and in the field, reduce the mortality and casualties at least two-thirds, and, what is even more vital, men of special training only can be used in modern warfare. , Nationally, we need a little fore- * sight, a keener appreciation of the T necessity for providing for future contingencies., We cut ice 1 in the * coldest sort of weather when nobody "* wants ice, for we know it will be w demanded a few months later; so we s< prepare in mid-winter, for our com- ai forts during the heated period of w summer. * The plan of universal military P training a soutlined in the Chamber- ? lain Bill would make available at all ? times, millions of young men who g have had sufficient military training u AT C W.

Observer from .Monroe in Union County, N. C., shows that Camp Jackson may soon have an old type of man: A young man hailing from Goose Creek is here today wearing a dress, and to be examined by the local exemption board for military service. He is accompanied by his mother, and they have been all morning waiting the call from the doctors. The man wears a real dress. He is about 25 years old, and has never donned a pair of pants but once in his lifetime. That was when he was a small child, and it is said that the ridicules of his companions so affected him that he took them off immediately, never to don them again. All his life has been spent arouna itocKy mver. w nen friends hail into sight, it is said, he will tuck up his skirts and fly for the sheltering river hanks. The man is not insane; neither is he a crank. He bought an automobile. During the years that have rolled by he has accumulated a good deal of property, but he still clings to the garb of a wo> man. He is unmarried, and if he is found physically fit he will in all probability be taken by the local ex' emption board for the country's third quota. UTS, D.'S S ITINIES10 8 ?ur Goods.
