Wdfaf WHY MILITARY Tennessee Military Institute has been military in plan, method, and or- ganization for ninety years for the reason that its founder, and succeeding officers have believed firmly in the values accruing to boys as a result of fol- lowing military procedures in connection with their school work. We have adhered to this organizational and procedural plan partly because of our belief that our most capable young men should be trained for leadership in case of national needs, such as have arisen three times in the last thirty-five years, and partly for the reasons enumerated in the next paragraph. We believe that most boys need the lessons in physical fitness resulting from military training-erect carriage of the body, firm, rhythmic step, sys- tematic, everyday, outdoor exercise as a means of keeping physically fit, and that they need the character-forming lessons derived from living, working, and playing according to an orderly schedule. In a good military school the boy wakes, dresses, eats, works, plays, studies, sleeps, in accordance with a regular schedule. He learns how to dress neatly without being a dude, how to be dignified in bearing without being stiff, how to act his part as a leader of men without appearing pompous and presumptuous. Orderliness, regulari- ty, and systematic procedure are part of the atmosphere in which he lives. To these may be added respect for superiors, respect for government, and the spirit of co-operation and teamwork so much needed in the complex civic life of the present generation. Some one has said that a man's character is the sum total of his habits. Many courses of thought and action become habitual in a military school, and these are desirable habits to build into character. ARMS STORAGE IN MILITARY BUILDING ' Page Fifty-three
