DUIRDOSE AND DISCIPLINE When he fails to prepare a lesson, he has committed a military offense. Probably he will spend an hour in delinquency study-hall that afternoon, between drill and parade. If his grades are consistently poor, he goes under academic confinement, which means that he can- not leave post until they are improved. He begins to study! He is taught how to prepare his quarters for inspec- tion. The floor is sweptg every drawer is open, its con- tents neatly arrangedg his bed is made up with clean lineng his uniforms hang on certain hooksg his clothing is folded thus and so on open shelvesg the broom is behind the door, his polished shoes are in a row under the foot of the bedg there is no trash behind the radiator, no dust on the top of the dresser, his person is immac- ulate from his toes to the top of his head. He begins to he neat and orderly! From reveille until taps he is under authority. He spends three-fourths of the day doing as he is told. Curiously enough, he does not object to it. He never talks back. He never argues. Within a month he would never dream of questioning an order. He is fitting him- self to give orders. He begins to ohey! He is punctilious in the rendering of courtesy to his superiors. He salutes with a snap. He jumps to atten- tion when an ofhcer passes him in the hall or enters his quarters. He prefaces his remarks with Sin He knocks at a door once, and waits. He reports his pres- ence deferentially, on approaching those of higher rank than his own. He begins to he respectful! At first it seems to him that military life is made up of countless impossible requirements. He forgets to take his book to class-and pays the price. He turns his head in ranks, forgetting that he is at attention-and pays the price. He neglects to wear his blouse down town-and pays the price. He fails to hear the bugle, he is a half minute late getting to his quarters-and pays the price. In two weeks he is looking ahead as he never looked ahead in his life before. He begins to think! And so this process of moulding the boy, most of it while he is utterly unconscious that it is happening, goes on day after day in every phase of his school life. The ideal of discipline at Castle Heights is nothing hut a continuous effort to apply 100 per cent common sense. Let the clock at home time the boy at school. A Day at Castle Heights in Word and Picture. Castle Heights is prepared to tell you, in advance just what your boy in all likelihood will be doing at any hour of the day or night while he is a cadet at the Academy. The cadet day at Castle Heights begins at 6:30 A.M., when first call sounds. Reveille is five minutes later, and if you look at your clock at 6:50, when assembly is sounding on the Hilltop, you may know that the cadet body, your son among its members, is in company forma- tion, and that his name is being called by a first ser- geant. He is fully uniformed. His room, by the way, WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST RIFLE TROPHY

LT. COL. CHARLES W. FENCE PROFESSOR OF MILITARY SCIENCE AND TACTICS CASIII HEIGHT is and must remain in perfect condition, until dinner, for at some hour in the morning it will be inspected again by a faculty officer. When your clock at home points to 7 o'ciock, your boy is going to breakfast at the Academy. At the word of command, the long lines march steadily and silently, every head to the front, into the mess-hall, where your son goes immediately to his chair, standing behind it at attention until he hears the command Seats There is a movement of chairs, and again a silence until the com- mand Rest. The tables accommodate six cadets each, the ranking men at the head and foot respectively. On these devolves the responsibility for the conduct at the table, but here and there around the attractive hall are faculty tables as well, where the oilicers, their wives and families, join regularly with the cadet body. Sick call sounds at 7:40, the Corps marches out from breakfast, and finds a trained nurse waiting at the in- Hrmary to see all cadets in need of her ministrations, and then from 8:15 until 1 o'clock come the class periods. Dinner is at 1:10 P.M. Your clock at home is still keeping time for your boy at school. At 2 P.M. come drill for the companies and practice for the band. The band is one of the features of Castle Heights life. It is directed by a competent faculty oflicer, and private lessons may be arranged for on the various band instruments. The companies march to the drill held, and there are instructed in close order or extended order drill, or in the
