AmoiiK the riirid require- ments speoitl- ' il li.v thi; Sec- retary of War before a mil- itary school (in eontradis- tiiiLtion I a colU ' ge) will bo granted authority for a unit of the Senior Division, is the qnalifleation that such lUlitBTy School must have been an IImI! ii School for three yearn. Hence, to the instructors JDOdaHiets who for the past three years have kept Wi ' ii ' wiirih ;in n f Ihf ton honor schools, belongs the cndft of the prtattA honor. The object of the R. 0. T. C. is to encourage schools and cadets to re iuire and take military training and to qualify graduates by standard and flyRtematic mt ' llu ' ds of training for orticcrs of voiunteiT!! slioiild they oiFer tiioir services to the goveriiniLiit in lime of need. The graduaie or stu- dent is not bound to the government any more than any other citizen because of the student belonginK I one of these units while at school. Indeed, it appears a tnc t generous action on the part of the government ia giving  rewMd to «tu- dents who fit themselves to become better citizens by takititr n rnursc in military train- ing in addition to their regular studies. The military schools lose none of the virtues ataH . t f.i -iiH, ' pilU ' uimKt ' , but lm t! Uuiii iiuifased ; at i . t the same time, parental ami schrx i jurisdiction is oot interfered with in the kUHt Ko Mlditkme] time for tiM miUtaiy d ' imrtnion1 at Wcntworlh will l)e necessan,- to conform to War I (cpailment requirements but the course will lie better ajntonatized. •tendardiaed asd nwde more progreesive so fllttt the student durhiir hi« second and anb- iMpMDt years nt the ncademy will avoid a trrent doal of repetition of military work. ( iulfLi may K ' liiduiitf in uiu yx-nr at iho in- stil iiijon US ill the iuihI. lull :i cutlet must talte two years ' military work at the school before he can graduate as a member of the R. 0.

The govommpnt will pay a cash reward of fifty to ninety dollars a year for cadets wlio have had tw« years ' training and who ajrree to attend a sum- mor camp and take an ad- vanced course of ins t ruc- tion during their third and fourth years at sehoot This will apply to the pres- ent Juniors who arc recom- mended by the Mllitar ' In- structor at the dose of tUa Hchool year. 5.

Graduates (.Senidc iliviyi  n) who at- tend summer campis muy secure an appoint- ment as Second Lieuteiuinl in the regular army for a six months period with full al- lowances and pay at rate of $100.(M a month.

C., thus rewarding ieadets for subordination, neatness, bearing - punctuality and general good military con- duct. 16. The military training will continue to be an important factor in helping the cadet lo develop a hijfh sense of pHrrir.n.tl hdni r. duty and loyalty t  self and luunlrj ' ; to encourage him to carefully consider ideals of good American citizenship ; to help strengthen his body and mind by successful methods of mental, moral and iihysi.al diHciiiiiru ' and thus to send him home a better, broader and stronger young man. Still the Government asks no pledge of future service and thua la assure I non-interference with civilian pur- suit.s. Thi ' (lovcrnment, however, is well re- paid for its expenditure in knowing that another citizen is ready. He that la ready is uHimlly willing: to serve, but, unfortunately, he that is willing is usually neither ready nor pr nred. The foregoing are cxinaidexed advanlaire«. Disadvantages: NONE. However, the cadet whoae parent may object to accepting aid and encouraKement tendered by the Gov- ernment are at liberiy to decline it, thereby removing about us near • diiadvaatiifle at can be thought of now.
