AID FUR THREE DAYS
 AT UNIVERSITY

The demand has come so nedVlly TOT opportunity to get first aid training that the Arizona State Bureau of mines will give an intensive course in first aid on August 6, and 8, at the Uni versity of Arizona at Tucson.
 This work is practically required of all men who are entering the govern ment service either as ommicers or en- listed men and the taking of such train ing in advance is of great assistance to these men. The recent call for men to enter the fall officers training camp requires that the men have such a course although there is little oppor- tunity for the men to get it before the call to camp comes on August 27.
 First aid has been playing a very i'm portant part during the past year in the training of men for war service, although it has been of great service for many years in industrial organiza- tion. The time is coming shortly when every man employed in what are called hazardous occupations will be required to show certificates of proficiency in first aid to the injured.
 The entrance of the reserve officers training corps into so many of the col leges of the United States and the fact that first aid is among the required subjects throws a great many students deficient and unable to receive the benefits offered by the reserve officers training corps and this course being given by the State Bureau of mines at this time will allow many of these stu dents to make up that deficinecy. The course is open to all men over IS years of age and thore are no re- quirements. except the ability to under stand tho E,OpliSh lanpllaVp There is no charge for the course and l it is probable that special rates vii i be made for those desiring to take the course at Tucson hotels and roomine | houses
 The work will be under the direction | of S. C. Dickinson, safety engineer ol the Arizona State Bureau of mines who i has been doing this work with thu United States Burean of mines for sev- eral years.
 The work should prove extremel! | popular for never has the need of frs aid training been so pronounced as a the present time. Further particular relative to the course may be obtained from Charles F. Willis, director of tn Arizona State Burean of mines, Tucson
