We been making history
in France and now they
want to study it!

THEY are going to have a chance to study his
tory at frst-hand as soon as peace comes. And
they are going to have a chance to study lots OF
other things-fromco cooking to carpentry, from cleo
tricity to economics, from tailoring to telegraphy,
from civics to cobbling, from art to agriculture.
That's going to be the big job Of these United
War Work organizations as soon as peace is de-
Clared.
Under the direction Of the Army, plans have been
worked out to let our fighters 60 to school-to give
men vocational and technical training that will fit
them to earn more when they return than they did
before they left-to open up the English and French
universities for higher education-to organize cor
respondence courses SO that however isolated a man
may be, he can benefit by these advantages.
While they are right on the ground they will be
able to visit places where European history has been
made.
Instructors will be drawn from the Army and a
thousand civilians are sailing for France to supple
ment the mighty force of educators now in France.
This is but one phase of the plans for demobiHza-
tion-to make the change from military back to
civil life a period of profit for our fighters. tits only
one reason for you to give more than you thought
you would, for the work Of these organizations will
never cease until the last of our fighters is safelv
back at home.

Intervention Endorsed

Washington, July S.-Allied interven-
ton in Russia will be good for that
country, though its people may not know
il for some time.
This is the opinion today of 7. G..
Masaryk, president of the Czecho-Slo-
yak national council here, and organ
izer of the gallant band of Czeeho-Slo-
vaks now holding the center of world
attention at VladivostoE.
He has urged President Wilson to send
immediate aid to the Slays that they
may be useful in the great struggle.
These men, Masaryk declares, want to
help the allies. When he first organ
lied them it was for the purpose of
getting them to the west front. He Sc
cured permission for them to move un-
molested through Siberia to Vladivostok
for shipment to France. They were
pledged, as were the Russians, not to
open hostilities during the movement
eastward.
Later, however, they were attacked
and as a result virtually fought their
way to the Pacific port and are now
there, in possession of huge war stores
captured when they took the city a
week ago,

Congress showed disposition to pass
important measures which last week it

There is much sentiment for three day
