Poland Diplomacy.

To the Editor of The Star:
1t came under my notice an article in
the Evening Star of February Goth, en-
titled Poles Turn Deaf Ear to Ger
mans. Refuse to Enlist Under Teuton's
Banner in New Created States"
Mr.. Editor. we here feel that it is
only correct diplomacy for Poles to act
there now. but as to another sentence
in your article, that we prefer to be
Russians. that is not so. We prefer to
be only Poles, neither German nor Rus
sian Poles, but Poland's Poles. and as
to the last paragraph in the same
article where 1t asks. why should Ger
mans make sacrifices to establish the
kingdom if Poles are not willing to
fight for it?" Whom shall we fight, for
our Kingdom? We exist. and every
body knows it; every nation recognizes
Poland's existence (and suffering for
no cause of her OWN. Russia first.
wishing to keep our friendship, pro-
claimed our National free existence.

TRAINING CAMP PLANNED
IN SUMMER FOR NEGROES
One Similar to That at Plattsburg,
N. T., Probably Will Be in
Operation Beginning in June.

Plans are being made for a military
training camp to be conducted next sum-
mer for colored men similar to that at
Plattsburg. N. Y. 1t probably will begin
some time in June and last four weeks
and will be under the direction Of officers
of the United States Army.
DR.. J. E. Spingarn of West 73d street,
New York city, who is taking a leading
part in getting the camp organized, is the
authority for the statement that Maj.
Gen. Leonard Wood commanding the De-
if 200 colored men apply for admission the
camp will be esta blished. In letter ad-
dressed "to the educated colored men of
the United States" DIR. Spingarn says:
1.-THE camp will be conducted on exact
ly the same principle as the military
training camp held at Plattsburg, N. Y,
where thousands of men have received
intensive training in military service. 1t
will be under the direction of United
States Army officers It will last four
weeks. The date has not been fixed. but
it will probably begin early in June. The
status of every student at the camp will
be that of cadet, just as at West Point
Il understand that the transportation
to and from the camp will be betrayed
by the government, and that the subsist-
ence and training at the camp will be
free. It is probable that every man will
have to pay his own fare to the camp,
and that after he arrives his travelling
expenses will be refunded and his fare
home paid. The only expense will be the
cost Of the uniform, which each man must
furnish himself.
Candidates must be between the ages
of twenty and forty-five, in vigorous
health, and of good moral character. Men
who are graduates or undergraduates of
colleges, high schools, normal. agricul-
tural or industrial schools, or other insti-
buttons of learning. are preferred; but
any man of intelligence, character and
ability may join. Previous military ex-
perience is not necessary"

Your Child


Sometimes a naturally bright child
disappoints his parents by not max
ing good progress in school. In many
cases careful examination will show
that he is suffering from eye strain
Are your child's eyes in proper
condition? If you have the slightest
suspicion that they are not, consult
an ocu1ist at once.
Should the oculist find that glasses
are needed, bring his prescription to
us, and we will fit your child with a
pair that will be correct, comfortable
and secure.
