first the second, have come and gone
and now comes the third series OF Of
Hcers training camps which are sup
plyiug the leaders for the national
army in the great war.
From the 500 applications submitted
for entrance TO the camp by enlisted
men Of the Eighty-eighth division at
Camp Dodge 80 have been chosen
who are beginning their three months
course of training with which they
hope to attain a commissioned grade.
This camp is particularly FORUM
ate in having such high grade Of
men to pick from. This together with
the large number of applications SUBJ
mitted enabled the board to select
especially high class men for entrance

Starts This Week.
Every enlisted man in the division
had the privilege Of applying for en-
trance to the camp and for this reason
the personnel OF the candidates is of a
rather cosmopolitan nature. Univers-
ity graduates. tailors and agricultur-
lists were all given the same considera-
tiOn before the examining board.
Whether or not they shall be commits

the men themselves. If their personal
qualities show that they are fitted to
command men it vii be quite evident
after few weeks OF intensive train
ing. Those men ordered from outside
points for training at this camp are
coming in slowly but it is thought that
everything will be in readiness for a
complete schedule of instruction for
this week.

At the cafe where we went for

laid out the big military map on the

north of the Biansizza plateau. His

As we pored over the map the in

THE ONE ROAD TO PEACE

~ HE setting forth of the
" war aims of the allies by
President Wilson and
Lloyd George cannot fail to ac-
complish good in Russia and
with the people of Germany
and Austria. The effect in
Russia is already manifest.
But no reasonable hopes can
be entertained of a satisfactory
peace with German militarism
until such time as distinct and
striking military reverses can
be inflicted upon the German
army under conditions that will
make it clear to Germans that
continuance in the war by
themselves will only mean
more complete defeat and
probable harder terms on their
surrender.
In other words it is not logi-
cal to expect suitable terms
from Germany while the Ger
mans are holding their own
as at present. The German
people are fed on the notion
that thus far they are victori-
Gus. They think they have the
drop on the allies, so to speak.
A peace they would make now
would be a victorious peace or
a peace based on a drawn war.
We must face the fact that
German prestige on the field
must be shattered before the
peace we strive for can be at
tanned. That this can be done
is no vain hope. With France,
England and Italy able to hold
their own against the foe the
arrival of United States forces,
including aeroplanes should
turn the tide. The allies will
have the best of the argument
in man power, in equipment
and in personnel. There is no
reason why by united, consist
ent work they cannot drive the
Germans back toward Berlin
and win a peace that will be
honorable and lasting.
War is the order of business
now and the harder it is press
ed the sooner will peace come.
