HOME-READING COURSE FOR CITIZEN- SOLDIERS V ^ \ Y - \ A (Issued by the War Department and all rights to reprint reserved.) This course of thirty daily lessons is offered to the men selected for service in the National Army as a practical help in getting started in the right way.

In som e camps guard m o u n ti^ comes about noon. This consists of relieving the men who have been guarding the camp and turning over this duty to new men. Each soldier mounts guard not oftener than once a week. After guard, mounting the men go to dinner, which comeg at twelves o ’clock. At least one hour is always allowed for dinner and Ihiring the afternoon the work is likely to be varied and to include additional setting-up exercises and other drills, target practice, bayonet exercises, and later more advanced drilling. About five o’clock comes the evening parade anfi “retreat,” when the flag Is lowered or furled for the night. The band plays “The Star Spangled Banner,’ while all officers and soldiers stand at atteniion. The ceremony is designed to deepen each man’s respect and love for the flag which he serves; it is alv'ays im pressive. After the flag Is lowered, it is carefully folded and escorted by the guard to headquarters, where it is kept until the next morning, when it is again raibed. Supper com es between five and six o'clock, and is usually followed by a period of rest. In the training camps th e r e will b e many opportunities for variety of healthful amusements— for sports, music, the theatre, and so Qn, as later described. Taps are sounded by ten o’clock. This is the signal to put out all lights, retire and keep quiet. “It closes the day for the soldier and sends hdm to his blankets a tired and sleep man.” This is only a sample of a day in camp. On som e days your company will go off on “hikes.” After a time there may be longer marches, when you will carry your shelter tents with you and will make your own camp each evening. These are days that will be especially intersting. You will learn the soldier’s art of adapting yourself to new situations and mak ing yourself comfortable. Your officers will ask yon to do nothing that they have not many times done them selves. They will ask nothing of you which any nor mal, healthy man cannot do. After a month or two of this training you will find that you have begun to take on some of the skill and th e self- reliance of a real soldier. OmDEKEEiLA EXPOSED.
