Lieut.. Robert e. Lee, U. 8. A., grand.
son of Gen. Robert E. Lee, the COM
mander in chief Of the armies Of tho
Confederate states during the Civil
war, is fighting for the United States.
Lieutenant Lee has the mark as .
military leader set by his famous
grandfather as the goal Of his efforts,
though he will be doing his utmost for
that Union which his grandfather
strove to destroy. General Lees fame
a. a soldier Is secure, for he Is rated
BY military experts as one of the
greatest commanders the world has
known. II Lieutenant Lee inherfts
his military skill there will be no Ques-
ton about his chances of being rated
q military genius.
Maj. William Fitzhugh Lee Simpson,
q granddaughter of Gen. Robert d.
Lee, recently died while on duty In
France, according to a confirmed re-
port received here. Major Simpson
was In charge Of the American school
Of machine gunfire in France. No par
ticulars Of his death, except that It
was due to appendicitis, have been re-
ceived. The Lees are in the fight.

London.-The soldier broken in the
war will have his chance of future en-
ployment at work suitable to his
MANNED condition and at a wage that
will enable him to live without seeking
charity. The only reason for any pos
sible failure Of the plan will be due to
refusal on his part to take part in the
training which has been provided for
him.
The ministry of pensions and the
ministry Of labor are making every ef-
fort to provide suitable instruction and
to obtain posts for the men as they
are trained.
Already courses of training are es-
tablished in the engineering and build
ing trades, the manufacture of air
craft, wholesale and retail tailoring,
the making Of leather goods, furniture
making, diamond cutting, wood cary
ing, toy making and many other trades.
An exhibition is now open In Lon
don in which are displayed the meth
DDS of training and the resulting va
riety of work turned Out by the dis
abled soldiers or sailors.
During the early days Of the exhi-
bition a conference Of delegates from
allied countries was held in which de-
tails Of the after care, work and the
treatments for the restoration of the
wounded were given.
Plan for Aiding Blind.
Sir Arthur Pearson described the
methods in use at St, Dunstan's for
the treatment, training and re-educa-
ton Of blinded soldiers. He said that
the actual re-education and training
was divided into two sections. the
classroom and the workshop, the mems
working day being divided between the
two.
Typewriting was taught In the class
room, while in the workshops the
largest number of men were learning
cobbling. Some men learned mat maxi
Ing only. Basket making, the oldest Of
the staple industries for the blind, was
taught in many varieties. The other
industry taught in the workshops was
joinery. The men Of st. Dunstan's &C.
Quired these Industries In a quarter Of
the time usually supposed to be neces-
sary to teach blinded man a trade.
Shorthand writing, by the aid Of ma
chine which enabled the Braille char

Just as I left the gate, turning
homeward, a strange procession ap-
peared down the lane, and 1 stopped to
let it pass-a huge canton, painted
war gray, followed by eight grizzled

France, torn and wracked by four

less was established in Scotland they
were told that, in view of the thou
sands of men who had lost limbs in
the war, it would be impossible to get
enough artificial substitutes unless
aliens We're employed. To meet the
difficulty a skilled limbs committee Of
physicists, engineers and surgeons was
formed, which had directed the produc-
ton of limbs by wood carvers. pattern
makers and mechanics in shipbuilding
yards and engineering shops, and thus
they had been able, by employing
home industry alone, to supply arti-
fetal limbs in sufficient quantities and
quality to satisfy requirements.
Methods of Treatment. @
Prof. V. Putt Of Bologna dealt with
the surgical treatment pertaining to
amputations. He described the meth
DDS of DR.. Giuliano Vanghetti, who
first conceived the idea and the means
Of drawing living energies from the
stump Of an amputated limb and trans
hitting voluntary movements to an
artificial member. 1t is now possible
for man who has lost both hands to
use q knife and fork at table, dress
himself and even shave with safety
razor. This miracle is due to the treat
ment known as cinematization, and the
perfection to which artificial limbs
have been brought.
In order to obtain this voluntary
movement the muscles are allowed to
overlap the bone of the stump and are
so arranged as to give two protuber-
ances similar in shape and size to two
small fingers. The muscles are so ar
ranged as to give alternately the f1ex-
ion and extension movements and
where that cannot be obtained a rotary
movement can be given. In this way
artificial limbs, instead Of being mere
~ supports for the stumps, can them
selves be manipulated.

The wage question has been a seri-
Gus problem, but the difficulties have
been largely solved. Up to the present
very few of the trained men trans
ferred to employment have failed to
obtain wages of $40 and over per week.
It Is hoped that with the extension Of

Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two
young wsmen. am twenty and my
friend Is twenty-four years old.
Sunday we were out on a picnic
with two of our gentlemen friends.
We. were having lovely time all
day, but every time that my girl
friend and I would leave the boys to
get something, we would find some
girls with the boys on return. We
took it all as a joke as they are boys
in uniform and they usually are at
tracted by girls. But after short
while these girls came back and no
ticed us with the boys and they went
in a different direction. The boys
got up and said they were going to
follow them. We of course took it
as a joke and laughed but they real
ly went over to them and spoke to
them about fifteen minutes. My girl
friend and I were very angry when
they came back and l said to them
that we had reasons to be angry as
they were not showing US any re-
spect to leave US and talk to girls
that they never had met.
My friend got very angry at me
then and would not talk to me for
the rest of the evening. DO you
not think l had reasons to become
angry? Do you think he should
have been angry at me? When he
left me last night he said that he
did not intend to come to see me
again as he thought. it would be best
for me and also for him. Now ! feel
terribly about it to think that he
will not come up to see me again as
/ love him dearly. We have been
going together quite steady. What
would you advise me to do, forget
all about him, or write him letter
as it seems impossible for me to for
get him? Please advise me.
M. AS.
You were justified in being angry
and if the men had been gentlemanly
they would have taken your reproot
in a more kindly spirit. You must
let the man go and learn to forget
him. He has acted in such way
that you should not want to be
friend again unless he comes to yor
and asks you to make up.
