The cure of soldiers' feet Is one of the Important tilings In war. A soldier Is no better than Ills feet. Many things enter Into the snui total of military ef ficiency, hut two of the great (actors making for efficiency in troops are marksmanship and marching power Infantry thut cannot march would tie ns unfit us Infantry that could not shoot. It muy he because ot the lm portunce of the feet In Infantry that the men of that branch ot the service are called "foot troops." Infantry without good feet would he more use less than cavalry without mounts, ar tillery without cannon or u Hying corps without an aeroplane. Napoleon has been credited with Buy Ing that an arini' marches upon Its stomach, which, of course. Is true us far ns it goes. Soldiers to hrtug or maintain their efficiency at the highest point rnuBt be adequately fed. und a world of endeavor has been put forth by brainy men to Insure the proper supply of food, to put into the ration the constituents needed by the human system and to have the food well cook ed. But It Is Just us true, figuratively as well as literally, that an urmy marches on its feet When u recruit or a prosiiectlve re cruit comeB up tor bis physical exam ination the exnmlniug surgeon gives just about us much attention to the applicant's feet ns tu his lungs, heart kidneys, teeth, vision und hearing. He will not pass a man with fiat feet, be cause thut man could nut march. He will Insist on a certain amount of urcb to the foot Too high an arch, which, bowerer, is rare in men. would result In his rejection. Any defect In the feet which would militnte against Ills en durance on the march would be a cause for rejection of the man. With the recognition of the impor tance of the soldier's foot came long and earnest study and experimentation with the soldier's sock und his shoe. The sock question was soon satisfac torily adjusted. The necessity of fre quent bathing of the feet, especially on the mnrch. was early determined on. and woolen socks, light or heavy, ac cording to the season, were decided on for marching men. Fresh and clean socks are insisted on. and a sock with u bole iu It or a sock that has been darned Is not to be worn At least tbai Is the Idea as developed In the Ameri can military service In the matter ot the fit of a soldier's socks It Is pre scribed in regulations that "the socks will be large enough to permit free movement of the toes, but not so loose as to permit of wrinkling." When ll came down lo the study ot the shoe the military men bad a seri ous problem which it Is believed In this country lo have been correctly solved and with the result that the men of the American army, are the best shod troops In the world. The cost of the United States army shoe, garrison or marching, is In round fig ures $3, and so popular is It with the men of the army that they rarely buy a pair of private shoes for use when absent from post on pass or oo fur lough The quartermnsler shoe of the present day Is considered an excellent specimen of the shoemaker's art and la vastly different in fit and finish from the army shoe of a generation ago In those states where these shoes tire issued by the national government to the organized militia It Is one of the perplexities of the nutlonal guard of ficers lo keep their men from wearing the shoes In civil life Before the foot and shoe fit question came undfer the study of men concern ed with the efficiency of troops there was always a grent deal of foot sore ness among the soldiers on the march This trouble was always severe and annoying among new troops and among old troops with new shoes The old Idea was lo equip a soldlet with a pair of shoes that would weal long. The stoutness and durability ot the shoe was the main consideration. There was very little consideration fot the foot that went lDBlde the shoe. If the shoe was large enough and not very much too large for the man the matter was thought to be settled. Foot trouble among regular troops on the march has been greatly reduced, hut or course has not been eliminated. Probably that Ideal never will be at tained. A soldier's marching efficiency de pends not alone on the size or wbat Is commonly called the "fit" of the shoe, but on tbe shape. It has been said that Dr. Herman Meyer was the first to formulate the theory that tbe great toe must lie In such a position that Its axis wheD carried backward aball pass through the center of the heel. The foot 1b a lever of the second class; the fulcrum Is at the ball and great toe and power at the heel, which is trans- DIRECTING A BATTLE. How ths General Staff Keep* In Touch With the Firing Line. In wartime the many threads lead lug from the long buttle line at length reach a eoiatnon point, which Is the headquarters of the general stuff. The activity of each officer atuelied to the general stall Is therefore of the great est Importance for the success of ev ery military enterprise. During the action every officer of the staff Is at the Immediate disposal ot the commanding general and assists him in the carrying out ot orders. Among the duties ot the staff officer during action belong the gathering and compilation of reports which lire con stantly pouring In to headquarters and which give Intimation of the progress or the buttle. The staff officer must observe tbe needs of the troops lu uc- tlon. He must keep a close watch on tbeir supply of ammunition tie must see that their commanders properly ex ecute the orders of the coumnuidlug general. He must look after the wound ed, see Unit they lire properly treated and sent to lazarets. He must see to It that prisoners nre properly eared for and thut the commissariat Is adequate ly provided for and the provisioning of the troops. Sometimes the commanding general Intrusts n staff officer with the observa tion of the action of tbe opposing forces which may be beyond tlie view of headquarters, or lie may be sent to tbe tiring line with Imisirtaut orders to commanders there, which, however, tbe staff officer has authority to niter If In his Judgment this Is necessary. During defense movements It Is of particular luqiortauce to observe close ly the movements of tbe opposing forces In order to make preparation for counted moves, such us advances, re- treats. the sending of re-enforcements and other movements of troops The execution of these movements fnlla within the province of the staff officer. Tbe training of tbe staff officer is very thorough. A complete practical course lu military science, extending over tunny years' of active service with various bodies of troops.

It la Sacred, For by It He Pledgee Hit Word and Honor. Some years ago tbe German Colonel von Sebllcbting. instructor to the Otto njnu army, was shot dead on parade at Yildlz kiosk by a young Albanian sol dier, Hadji Balaam, because tbe Ger man In correcting the fnulty pose of the soldier’s head touched his chin with his riding whip. Unfortunately the colonel did not know or did not remember thnt to touch a Mussulman's chin Is a grave offense from a religious viewpoint It is by the beard of tbe prophet or his own heard that he swears allegiance and makes his vows and promises. Ac cording to a Turkish general, an Al- banian would kill his own father If he laid hands upon Ills sou's bead in so disrespectful a manner. A Mohamme dan military service Is simply a re ligious duty, and it implies a volun tary submission to discipline. But Turkish officers know her t thun to touch their men rudely or even to shout nt them. Of course It was a very regretnble misunderstanding, and tbe sultan sent u telegram to the kaiser to express his sorrow.and an Imperial Ottoman prince and three Turkish ministers followed the victim's hearse to the cemetery. But In the Interests of discipline the murderer had to die despite an appeal for a reprieve from the colonel’s widow. The Albanian was shot by ten men of his own battalion, and when he was asked before the execution If Ue re pented of the deed he replied twice in a firm voice, "Nol"—Washington Star. Memorial by Ebenezer Baptist Church, God has seen fit to take from our midst our beloved brother, W. It. Orr, jr. We cannot rebel against God, and we know, through faith in His good ness, that He doeth all things well, We cannot see now why he was taken from us so unexpectedly. God’s infinity keeps us from understanding how and why He dealt with us apparently so un kindly; but He “moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform." We pause in our grief to offer this tribute of love and praise to our dear brother. He was a faithful member of our church, loved his pastor, and was al ways ready to do his part in any under taking to advance the cause of Christ. That death loves a shining mark was never more forcibly demonstrated than in the case of our deceased brother. None of us know what a vacancy there is left in his home, or how he will be missed by hiB loved ones. His last few years were years of great Buffering, but he bore his afflictions with a degree of fortitude not found in the hearts of those without Christ. It may be truly said that earth is poorer and heaven richer with the passing away of our brother. Bereaved ones, look up and think of him there, for the great Crea tor is looking down on you in grief from the glorious heights of heaven. What a blessed thought that these sep arations are not final, and that with crownB on our heads and harps in our hands we shall meet again and sing to gether on that golden shore, where there will be no sicknesB, nor Borrow, nor death. ‘’Asleep In Jesus, blessed sleep. From which none ever wake to weep." Bro. Orr wss born Aug. 6, 1870, and died April 19, 1915. At an early age he united with the First Baptist church at Newnan, and later moved his membei- ship to Ebenezer church. Be it re solved— 1. That our hearts go out in sympa thy to the grief-stricken family and relatives, and pray that God may com fort them. 2. That we bow in humble submission to our all-wise Father, who doeth all things well. 3. That these resolutions be placed upon our church record, and a copy of same furnished his family. Mrs. Z. R.
