is leaving our high schools to avail
themselves this year of the oppor-

and other agencies to help carry on
the work of the schools.

encourage young men and women to

Once in awhile there develops a

can get right under their bronze
buttons in a heart-to-heart manner
without any studied attempt at ora
tory. He frankly told them of the
history Of the present war. .ss,
Curtain Slightly Lifted. S
He lifted the curtain Of the past
and revealed to his hearers that for
years he had been a resident Of
France, d England and Italy and his
intimate acquaintance placed him In
position to talk in most intelligent
and interesting manner. He barred
the inner recesses of these countries
and all their peoples He told of
their relations to the empire of Ger
many and what it all meant, and his
analysis was followed closely and
intently. #. :
Becoming Optimistic.
For the first time since the out
break of the war, Major Yost ex-
pressed himself as optimistic, the re.
suits achieved by the Italians against
the Austrians. He was frank to say
So, and his intense patriotism has
been the cause of his strenuous cam.
paign for men to combat the Hun
hordes and their 40 years prepara-
ton and propaganda. ,s-. ~.
Major Yost is veteran of the
United States military service and
has seen !. in all it's phases. He has
served the government on foreign
shores for years and taken part in
her battles and his simple narrative
Of world conditions as they relate tc
the United States held his hearers
in wrapt attention to the close.

genuine get together of the master

MaiD What an American soldier
doesn't know about washing clothes
will not be worth knowing, if this
war lasts many months more.
Not that the doughboys are taught
laundering, or have to wash their
clothes, either. Thereby hangs a
tale.
The villages of northern France,
where many Americans are serving,
do not have all the new-fangled
modern improvements, such as laun-
deries and washing machines, SO
common in America. If they did
have them, the new-fangled things
probably would not be used, because
their operation would require more
new-fangled ideas.
