ton Of the Providence, r. l.. that conservative
New England municipality. in establishing COM
pulsory military training for all high school
students.
The Providence example should Be followed
by the school boards Of every other American
city and town. In no other way can such perraa-
nent beneficial results be extended American
school boys as through practical military train
ing. It stimulates mentally, strengthens physi-
cally and makes for good health and manliness
It is right that all young Americans Be taught
that upon them depends the safety Of their coun-
try, and that they will serve their country best
if they are trained for it's military service.
Military training teaches the value and i'm
portance Of obedience and discipline as nothing
else can do.
Military training teaches self-respect, self
confidence and self-dependence. It promotes
good citizenship and practical, useful patriot
ism.
In peace military training young citizens Of
high type, in war trained soldiers.

BELGIAN ENGINEER

BY GERMAN TROOPS

BERLIN, Aug. 9.-The "Norddeu-
tsche Allgemeine Zeitung" officially
contradicts the charge of the, Paris pa
Ders that the Belgian engineer Len
ORE. who was executed some time
ago at Client, was shot without trial.
and that his wife, with 200 Belgian cit.
liens, was compelled to witness the
execution.
There is not one word OF truth in
these charges" the official organ OF
the German government says, lie
noire had for some time been under
suspicion of furnishing information
about German military transports to
the Belgian, French and English com
manders. He was caught in the act
courtmartialed and convicted, accord
ing to the rules Of war.
1.-THE execution Of the spy took place
at daybreak in little wood which is
about three miles from the nearest
village. Special care was taken by the
military authorities that no Belgians
should witness the shooting of the con
victed man. The only persons pres
ent were a few German officers and
the Catholic chaplain Of German
field hospital"

ching contributed by the government. These
men are paying their own expenses. In the
event of war their services as officers in the
