extracted text (Extract Text): One of the interesting features of the army show in Chicago recently was a display of the uniforms worn by soldiers of all this country's wars, and a demonstration of some of the changes in the manual of arms as represented in the different periods. The "port arms" position, for instance, changed with each war from the Revolution to the world war, although the change was not very marked for the Mexican and Civil war periods. Until after the Civil war, the position was known as "support arms."
