Employees of Bureau of Mines Take
Advantage of Course Offered.

ices OF the bureau of mines have en-
listed for the training course in first
ald which has been opened by the bu-
reau TO the wives and daughters of
miners of the country. Thus the bureau
- preparing to do its bit' for national
defense.
The bureau maintains eight first aid
cars for emergency use in mine acci-
dents and for some time has offered a
course of first aid training TO miners.
Under the decision to extend this prlvi-
lege also to the wives and daughters of
the men officials say that hundreds of
thousands or women can secure free
instruction at their doors. They .,e-
}@eve that such training would be u val
able national asset not only in such an
emergency as that now facing the
country, but Iu ordinary times. as well,
tecause it would greatly augment tho
f1cilitieS for caring for those injured
In mine disasters.
The bureaus eight cars are scattered
through the mining districts, and all of
,heir time not occupied with relief work
is devoted now TO training miners In
first aid methods. About $4,000 men
hsve been trained since tho service was
created. Under an arrangement with
the American Red Cross those who
complete the course hereafter will be
given certificates both by the bureau

German Writers Instructed.

An intercepted document issued from
the German general command, dated
Muenster, February, advising news
paper writer's how to deal with the
new submarine war which has been
obtained from o responsible source.
contains interesting paragraphs. One
reads:
Toward America it Will be advisable
to employ outward forms of friendli-
ness. Unfriendliness would increase
the danger of America coming in-the
rupture of diplomatic relations, even
active participation. hangs in the bal
ance. The attitude OF the press must
not increase this danger"
Other paragraphs assert that Eng
lands claims to having perfected a
means of defense ARE refuted by the
good results of recent months, which
are increasingly important because the
enemy's mercantile marine is already
weakened and material Is exhausted.
Psychological influence should not
be underestimated. Fear among the
enemy and neutrals leads to Difficult
ties with crews and may induce neu-
trails to keep their ships IN harbor''
