Dr. Woods Hutchinson Describes the New Military Training Necessary to Make Us Fit to Cope with Science and Machinery in War and at the Same Time Give Us the Greatest Health and Efficiency in Peace. The ultimate physiological basis of efficiency in modern warfare. A diagram of the sympathetic nervous system, which is really a continuation of the brain (A) The ganglia or brain centers about the eye. (B) Centres about the throat and D) The stomach and abdominal brain. (E) The heart brain. It is the sympathetic nervous system that suffers most through the scientific methods of modern warfare. Every effort to make a soldier efficient must be centered upon keeping this delicate organism in health. On the left a diagram showing a nerve fibre of the sympathetic system connected with muscles which it controls. This explains why the nervous stress of the modern battle by disabling the sympathetic system produces paralysis and other muscular disabilities. Dr. Woods Hutchinson.

ELLINGTON Paid that the Battle cricket fields of Eton and Harrow. The next war?if it ever comes, which Heaven forbid?will he won on the playgrounds and in the laboratories. Playgrounds, to make Young America, like Captain McNeil, of the Black Tyrone, "a man with two hands and two feet, and all his feet in his head"; laboratories, to teach him to mix the new war medicine, which smells to high Heaven, but works like a devil unchained. For in modern war the battle is not between men and men.  But between engines and engines, steam engines, gas engines, dynamos, engines of flight, engines of destruction. Man is simply the mahout of these murderous steel monsters. The hand that holds the lever rules the world.
