school to soldiers declare that ii is one
of the greatest forward steps yet taken
in an educational way in camp and
foresees a warm reception for it among
the men whose thoughts are very much
centered just now upon the future.
Not I'd educators are on the staff of in
strdctors which will present this course
in Camp Lewis and aside from the in
terest in the lectures there will be a
decided interest in hearing from and
learning from the men who have been
detailed to this work.
That the school might have mill

has assumed its general direction ana
has outlined periods during the day
when men will be relieved in desig-
mated groups to assemble for lectures,
for which they will be excused from all
other duties during drill hours. The
instructors desire that each man will
get one week Of instruction in each Of
the three subjects-civics, Commercial
law and economics--which means that
the course will continue daily for three
weeks.
One officer. discussing the new school
yesterday, declared:
Here is one of the greatest steps yet
taken at Camp Lewis and one so i'm
portant that no soldier should care to
miss it, The problems we will encoun-
ter once we are restored to civilian
life, will be vastly more simple II we
grasp the instruction this course will
offer. 1t seems designed splendidly to
prepare soldiers to take a more worthy
and more intelligent part in the work.

Another big feature Of the instruc-

The beginning of great plan where
by soldiers at Camp Lewis VIII have
opportunity to better fit themselves to
cope with the problems Of civilian life
to which they will be returning, comes
with the opening on Monday morning
of the first classes Of course of In
struction on such highly important
subjects as civics, commercial law and
economics. A staff of q educators, as
sisted by a number of officers who are
authorities on these certain subjects,
will present the instruction outlined
under the direction Of the division
school of arms.
The course of instruction, starting
with lectures Monday morning, will
continue for three weeks with daily
lectures in the recreation halls welfare
buildings and assembly rooms OF the
camp. Four classes will be held each
day. giving all men in the camp
chance to attend. Prominent men
from the teaching STATS of the Univer-
sity of Washington. Washington state
College and the high schools Of Tacoma,
Seattle, Olympia and Portland will give
the lectures.
Officers here on Wednesday after
noon completed the details of the big
school in conference with Dean Condor

dent of the University of Washington;
E. p. Dahm, head Of the extension
service of the same institution and c.
r. Frazier. director for Washington OF
the national and state boards for fed
eral education.
The plan as decided upon provides
daily lectures over a period Of three
weeks. which will allow time and sub
ject matter sufficient to give every
available man in Camp Lewis a full
week of instruction upon each OF the
three subjects which have been desig-
mated as most important. Lectures will
be conducted during three hours OF
each morning and one hour each after
noon. and soldiers will be relieved from
all other duties during lecture hours.
Different camp units will appear at
specified places at allotted hours. All
camp halls will be utilized to give
space for the audiences these lectures
will draw.
Out of the school course soldiers will
be expected to gain better knowledge
of the workings of national and state

to the nation In this time of world
need. The war can be won only If we
deliver the men, the ships, and the
food In sufficient number and quanti-
ties to make our war program effec-
tive. You as boy scouts can greatly
aid by growing home vegetable gar
dens, raising pigs and poultry, con-
serving food by canning and drying for
home use and in many other ways
open to you.
"Will you not help your country
again this year even In a bigger and a
better way than you did during the
summer of 1917? Your task will be to
beat your own record in food produc-
tion and conservation. May your motto
for 1918 be, Every scout to feed d sol
der and one other

Away on those upper waters
There towers, majestic and grand,
A rock, like sentinel keeping
Safe watch o'er the lake and the land
And when the aurora is flinging
Its banners abroad on the sky,
Trails over which souls in departing
May reach the great wigwam on high,
Sometimes o'er the rock may be noticed
A figure in flaming red,
Poised there in the form Of an eagle
With its wings DER the waters out
spread.
They say it's the great Thunder Eagle
Come forth once again from its nest
On the brow of the old Sleeping Giant,
With fire in its sacred breast.
And il shakes from its quivering pinions
Great spJashes OF radiant light,
Shot out like those flaming meteors
That fall from the wing Of night.
And it bears the Ojibway message,
Some marvellous deed that shall waken
And quicken the soul OF the land.
And we who have called from his eyrie
Far up on the mountain crag
Our own proud American eagle
And placed in his keeping our flag.
We too have looked up on that vision,
And read with our wondering eyes
A message of hope for the nations
Writ there on those crimsoned skies.
For the world is now wakened and
startled
AT sound of wars clarion call,
And horror and gloom wrap the nations
More dense than the midnight's pail.
And our eagle has lifted his pinions,
With the flag We love clutched in his
claws,
And scared away over the waters
To battle for liberty's cause.
And we know his wings ne'er shall be
folded,
Nor the flag we love ever be furled,
Till tyranny's power has been broken
And freedom has blest the wide world.

THE THUNDER EAGLE
WARREN w. LAMPoRT

Early in March an unusual display of
northern lights lit up our western hem
isphere, and also hung over the battle
fields of Europe. It was especially
brilliant over the upper end of Lake
Superior, where it assumed the form of
an eagle spread out in great splash of
red, with rays of light falling from it.
The Ojibway Indians have tradition
that once in good many years such
vision appears over the Sleeping Giant,
a rock that towers a thousand feet or
so above the waters of Thunder Bay.
They call it the Thunder Eagle, and say
that its appearance portends some great
event about to happen in the world.

Eskimos Lunar Myth.

An Eskimo myth relates that when
a girl was at party someone told his
love for her by shaking her shoulders
after the manner Of the country. She
could not see who it was in the dark
hut; she smeared her hand with SCOT,
and when he came back she blackened
his cheek with her hand. When a light
was brought she saw that it was her
brother and fled. He ran after her and
followed her, but as she came to the
end of the earth she sprang out into
the sky. Then she became the sun and
he the moon, and this is why the moon
is always chasing the sun through the
heavens, and why the moon is some
times dark as he turns his blackened
cheek toward the EARTH"
