SCHOOL FOR THE SOLDIERS
German Empire Establishes Courses
That Young Men May Become
Skilled In Some Occupation.

In keeping with the German govern.
vast training school for the develop
ment of the best there is In the youth
OF the country for national CONNER
cial success regular business school
courses are now being organized In
the German army, so that the recruit
during his term of military service
will be fitting himself for the business
life he will have to enter on quitting
the colors, says the Army and Navy
Journal.
The hundreds OF thousands of chill
dren are not permitted to pass through
the public schools and to drift through
life as unskilled laborers. Each one.
as far as the government can order 1t
so, Is turned out skilled In some occu-
patton.
One of the most powerfully educa-
tive forces In the empire Is the con-
tlnuation r-hool originally intended
to maintain some kind OF discipline
over youths from fourteen to eighteen
years of age prior to their enlistment
in the army. or late years these con-
tinuation schools have been changed
into vocational schools.
Twice every year great. flaming
posters call the youth of the land to
obligatory attendance at the trade and
commercial schools, These posters
enumerate more than 100 trades or vo-
cations and each youth Is summoned
to appear at the school devoted to his
particular calling. Connected with
these schools have naturally grown
up actual workshops, where the pupils
handle real machinery and make COM
mercial articles.
No one who observes the almost
military precision with which all this
vast system Is carried along to the ad-
vancement of the commercial success
OF the nation can fail to associate Il
with the impression made upon the
popular mind by service In the army,
and the student Of sociology will not
fail to make note Of the fact that
this great method Of training OF the
youth Of country has had It's origin
In the land which so many shallow
thinkers have said was cursed by a
militarism that was crushing the
life out of the Industrial forces OF the
country and undermining the charac-
ter Of the youth OF the land"
