OUR MILITARY ACADEMY.
West Point, Where Uncle Sam'» Army
Officers Are Made.
It was In liSWJ thai congress estab
ished tlie United States Military acad
;mj, tho training school for officers, at
West Point, on the banks of the Hud
son, flfty-two miles north of New York
lty.
Although the school for educating
tnd training young ineu lu the theory
tnd practice of military suhjice, to Qt
them for duty as ofll ers of the I'tilted
itates army, wus uot established until
ifter Washington's death, he was in a
,vay the real founder. In 1 Tl»r{ and again
in 1790 he urged upon congress the
necessity of such an institution. The
Jontinental congress as early as 177t>
:iad also suggested the desirability of
"a military school for the army."
Authorized in 1S0J, the Military acad
»my was opened on the Fourth of July
with a' class of ten cailets. Prior to
that time a number of students had
been enrolled at the forts at West
Point, where a corps of artillerymen
ind engineers was stationed anil lnfor
iial Instruction had liecu given in the
»rts of war.
Tlie tlrst deouie or me iK iiueui.v b ex
Istence was marked by many vicissl
tudes. Although congress bad created
tlie Institution. the lawmakers appar
»ntly soon forgot all about It, and.
lacking sutlicieiit funds for its proper
x>n''Mot, the academy authorities were
liuru pressed to keep It alive. At one
time the si hooi was without a single
instructor, lu its first ten years only
seventy-five students graduated.
In 1S12 President Madison brought
»bout a reorganization of West Point.
Soon 2d0 students were enrolled, and
the Institution be;;nn to assume some
:hlng of its present form. It was not
until 1817. however, that West Point
began to receive serious consideration
Id the military world. Colonel Sylva
ius Tha.ver, who has been called "the
I'ather of West Point." was appointed
lo command, and it was lie who Intra
luced the uniform, the organization
ind rules of study. Pnder his control I
he academy gained prestige and re
nown. In 1S.T3. win n he resigned the
-ominand. West Toint had won the re- I
■spect of the military men of Europe '
tnd was counted among Jho world's ,
most famous luslltulions of l.s kind.— j
