act. He would not act like a shout-
ing. sweating, cursing mounlcbsnk

libel, go through ape-like antics. or
try to work the congregation into
that form of hysteria. which has no
more relationship to true ‘eligion

every mean and vicious tendency in
human nature, inflamlng neighbors

End of The Submarine Tragedy
(New Haven Journal-Courier)
In the solemnltlcs and ceremonial
aztending the return to Brooklyn of
the submarine lost off New London
—vvhlch the new department knows
how to make impressive—and in the
curious engineering devices used in
raising the submerged coffin. the
public should not lose the unutter-
able sadness and sense of futility
growing out of such disasters.
There could be no more moving
argument against war.‘ against all
that breeds it and invests it with
specious glamour of splendor. than
this waste of life. the {toe of the
survivors. As for the agony in which
these twenty-five young lives were
quenched. it is so pitiful. that the
mind simply cannot dwell on it.
Death on the battlefield is opiatod to
some extent by the fury and onset.
To be caught in a slow trap at the

and this in a. time of peace when no
man‘s hand is raised. against an.
other. is detached. unr’sted. remote
to s point that makes t e heart sick.
It must be so: but the succession
of peace disasters in this domain of
war-equipment. should spur every
humane man and woman to cooper-

faintest promise of lessening war and
so minimizing these eager opportuni.

Dr. H. H. Bclnfield, Nowi
Of Brooklyn, Describes
First Day At Camp Car-
lislc, Pa.
Dr. Henry Harold Beinfleld. East-
ern Parkway. Brooklyn, formerly of
Norwalk, in an interesting letter to
the Evening Sentinel this morning.
described his first day's experiences
as captain in the Army Medical
Corps at. Camp Caxllsle. ‘Ps.. where
he trained during the past two
weeks. While in Norwalk he did re-
search work in ear diseases, and is
now the head of a large private hos-
pital in Brooklyn. He was appoint-
ed captain in the medical corps last.
year in recognition of his able work
in the service during the World War.
The letter follows:
"it might be interesting to relate
some of the experiences of the Be-
serve Medical omcer ordered for
two weeks’ training at the Army
Medical Field Service School at. Car-
lislc Barracks. Pa. There were
about 400 of us here assigned for
active duty from July 4 to July 18.
The branches of services represented
included the medical. dental. veteri-
narian. and administration -men
ranking from second lieutenant to
colonel. and their ages ranging from
the twenties to the fifties. all in all
a very fine body of men.
“Upon our arrival at Carlisle, an
enlisted man took charge of the
baggage which immediately relieved
us of one of the very annoying de«~
tails of travel. Then we were di:
rooted to an army auto-ambulance.
which met each incoming train. and
took us to the camp quarters about
one and a. half miles from the rail.
road station. Such service was more
than we expected. We stepped off
at the camp battalion. where we
were registered and assigned to out
tent and company. The camp was
situated on an elevation which over-
looks the surrounding country for
about one half mile. The next few
hours were spent in getting settled
in the tent which has accommoda-
tions for'about 20 army cots. We
were at liberty to choose any cot we
wished and then proceeded to get in
shape with blankets. sheets and pit-
low cases. Our baggage was brought
in and placed beside our cot. so now
we were pretty well ready to start,
on our training work. Having some
time on our hands wo endeavored
to acquaint ourselves with the sur.
roundlngs and vicinity.
“The camp for administrative pur-
poses is divided into three coin-
psnies. For all camp functions we
marched in company formation ar-
ranged according to size. We then
were ready. and marched to "the
mess hall where we sested ourselves

LAUGH. DON‘T ('RY OVER
TRIPLES.
I heard an old woman talking
the mother of a family one day,
“Elizabeth." said she. "I know
your disposition so well that I‘m in-
clined to be e little sorry for your
children. especially when they get a
bit older."
"Whil?" gasped Elizabeth. ‘You
always gave me the idea that you
rsther—-well——that you thought i
had common sense. What‘s wrong
with me as a mother?”
The older woman smiled. “As
an admirer of yours. my dear. I sit
l0
know that. But until the last few
years you hnve never had anyone
'but yourself to manage. You've had
your own life to direct and yell have
done it so marvelously well that you
are what I consider a rather perfect
product. But. it Is it different mat-
ter to be holding the reins of half
a. dozen young trickles. all imperfect.
all full of spirit. all different."
“But I'm studying the children
every minute of the time." protested
Elizabeth. "I‘ve even bought books
on phsychology. And. as you know.
the three oldest ones are going to
the best school I can find for them."
"i know all that." nodded Eliza-
beth's mentor. "I know you well
enough to have every confidence in
your duty. But do you mind if I
give you a little unasked advice?"
"No. i wish you would." said sen—
sible Elizabeth.
“Then first of all I am going to
suggest that you do not take to
heart too ‘much the things that the
children do that are not of real im-
portance. They will often give your
ideals a jolt. I heard that you
nearly fainted with horror when
Betty bought some glass earrings
and wore them to the Hart's party."
Elizabeth colored 'But Betty is
only fourteen and — earrings!" she
said. much as she would have said
“rattlesnakes.”
“Yes. earrings!" said the other
calmly. “She shouldn't have. of
course. But. she did; it was a case
for laughter. not tears. my dear."
"Ilsee," said Elizabeth. "I shall
try to remember." Then she
laughed.
“It wasn't very important was it?
You are right."
