Back'of this bluff is an indefinite stretch of land us- ually called the slough; low flit} prairie and some parts of it mll covered with water except in dry seasons. Unpromising as it now _ seems be assured in the near fu- ture it too will be made to lend at- DI.- v.- -- “actions to the bluff between H and grand old Lake Michigan. one-v Approximately 15 000 people restde on this pic que strip of land between \V in and Lake Bluff. and the num- ber is fast' increasing.

Character building is the real value test of ed ' '5 Inc l‘ua Yuan-v -_ at work. and in ,the buildingof character one of the first princi- ples to be thoroughly instilled in- to the youngmind is a cheerful ‘ implicit obedience to all lawful and rightful authority; obedience first in order-to the parent or guardian.- then to the school. then to the state, and lastly to that yeing who is the author of all other authority. . . In no other way in our observa- tion. can that spirit of implicit ofiedience be so quickly, so ef- fectually. so completely instilled into young minds ' as through military methods- Nor, do we ’ know of any other method where- by the ends can be accomplished withso little that mav be called harsh in methods. I So much granted and the rest naturally follows. The yonng man thornughly trained in a good military school. is not inclined to fight until forced to it. and then he is prepared to tight calmly, bravelv. and .with energy. _ No.~ there is little or nothing in the ‘churge that a military educa- tiun twins 3 young" man to go nut into the world hunting for a chance to stir up or engage in war. ' "- Let us citc an illusttdtton; Thc Northwcslem Militaty Acadcmv was founded in [888; In [898 the Spanish waerrokc out, during‘ thescten yéars many young men had entered N. M. A. to be fitted ,(or WesLPuint with the interest "of ultimately joining the army. But in l898 thcre was not a student of N. M- A. in the Army. Then came the call for volunteers to fight Spain. Many of the past students M N. M. A. responded. Some got promotions and one at least a Lieutenancy. but when the war closed. so far as we could learn. all save one promptlv re. turned to civic life“ Ten years later and still to the best of our Knowledge there were but two N. M. A. gra uates in the Army'; both are bent ants. Well train- ed military cad are prepared to fight, but as a rule they don't do it until _ their country calls tor them and they are among the first to respond. It is rather unfortunate that the establising of the postal bank sys- tem is to be so delayed. or advise1 from Washington say su his great1 amount of preliminary work that svsrem cannocbe started this year. There isa growing idea that many top Ie‘ are going to be disappoint- ed with the postal banks. and ex- cept for the people of the larger towns and cities.’ the rhapsodies indulged realized. - It had been thought every post- officc was to be a postal bank; so far it is not discernible such is to be the case. While the city and large towns may afford conveni- ences of this sdrt. the smallet Io- calities, that is. if the accounts “have not been misread and the terms of the bill. may not possess these government postal banks. If this Is in fact not to be the case that will be undoubtedly a dis- tinct disappointment.
