London, July S.-"If you give a
man damp rag and set him at work

This, explained the officer In charge
of the military orthopedic hospital to
the Associated Press correspondent, is
the principle of the latest and best
Curative Workshops. Wounded men
who have been left with some disabil-
lity-stiffened fingers or arms or legs
are given some exercise which is
necessary for them in form in which
they do not tire Of it, and in which
their minds are occupied not with
themselves and their injury, but with
the work they do.
These workshops have brought a
great change into the military ortho-
pedic hospitals. They have become
the most interesting part of wonder

as ,"dreary places full of dispiritpd

months in hospital, many of whom

DENVER SOCIOLOGIST
WILL USE OvERALLS UNTIL
THE WAR IS OVER

Denver, Col, July S.-Edwin A.
Brown, Denver sociologist and reput.
ed a millionaire, author of stories Of
men who are down and out as a
measure of war time economy, has
announced that he will wear only
suits of blue jeans until the war ends.
He already has appeared in his new
garb at two Sunday services at the
First Presbyterian church, one of the
most fashionable in Denver.
Mr.. Browns first appearance at
church caused more than ordinary at
tention to his clean and neatly ironel
war suit" 1t drew almost as much
attention as the sermon, his fellow
parishioners said.
Mr.. Brown says he made the change
from the conventional clothing of a
man Of his position to be Square with
his conscience.
ut was one way I found of pur-
chasing Liberty Bond he said. "A
suit of the best cloth costs as much
or more than Liberty Bond. fell
that the boys in the trenches give no
thought to what they wear or eat AMI
that I could do likewise, and use the
difference in the cost of my clothing
in buying bonds"
The Denver man has two suits OF
the same material One he calls his
Society suit" This one always Is
neatly Numbered. The other, of the
same material, he uses for work in
his war garden. It Is Of the same
material only not so we'll ironed. It
consists of trousers and jumper, Of
the pattern worn mostly by railroad
enginemen and machinists.
"The best ome-manufactured dem
i'm can be bought, overalls and jumper
for $3.50 suit" said Brown, "and a
splendid quality of khaki for Sc n

neither shall I walk in the alleys be-

France is that while the little detach- ment of Americans was greatly out numbered it fought in a manner to sustain the best traditions of the Amer ican army. The emptiness of the Ger man talk of contempt for American fighters also was seen in the elaborate plans and overwhelming force used by the Huns to make showing against the soldiers of the United States. It shows that instead of holding the American fighter lightly they are afraid to tackle him man for man, and his record in his first meeting must add nightly to their respect for him.
 In the narrow trenches, where there was no room for rifle shots, the report details, the Americans fought with their clubbed guns, their bayonets

S|M|TH-H HUGHES
 ACT OUTLINED
 TOEDUCATORS

The Smith Hughes act which passed congress year ago and the benefits of which were accepted by the last Ari- zona legislature has aroused a great deal of interest among the educators or our state. Twenty four of the twenty eight high schools have already evinced a desiNe to reorganize their courses of study in order that they may share in the Smith Hughes fund.
 At present there is available here S30,000 for the promotion of teacher training and for the teaching of agri- culture. home economies, the trades and industries. This money will be used for the payment of teachers sal aries only.
 In order to qualify, schools must present for approval to the State Board of Control for Vocational Education ] the course of study, evidence of suffi- cient equipment, qualifications of schools, teachers and pupils Schools must be under public control, teachers must have sufficient technical and trade experience, and pupils be past fourteen years of age and of average intelligence and normality.
 The controlling object of the Smith Hughes act is to fit for useful employ ment. Tn order to bring about this re-

spades-even their hands. Well, you know how they, picked men as they were and realizing that they were of the vanguard of a great American army, would fight.
 While the number of German dead and wounded is not known. it is known that the raiders were dragging many of their comrades with them when they left. In fine, the Americans are de- scribed as fighting like wildcats.
 They have served their country im- measurably. They have shown the enemy that the American cannot be terrorized and that the Germans are not a match for them. We may rest assured that the thought of fighting millions of such men as those with whom they have just had experience will have it's effect on them.
Arizona republican., 1918-03-23

suit it will require that at least half the school time be devoted to practical and technical subjects. The sciences, mathematics and drawing will be taught so that they relate themselves to the vocation studied.
 Of the $30,000, one third of the amount is available for the teaching of agriculture. Most of this $10,000 will go to schools in the Salt River Val ley, if they all qualify.
 Throughout the country the Smith Hughes act is hailed as a very sound educational measure. It is pointed out that as a war measure it is of the greatest importance. In it's influence upon industrial organism it will un- doubtedly have far reaching effects. The pupil who leaves the high school now without any training at which he can make a livelihood, without any skill for which there is a demand, without a controlling purpose in life, will be re- placed by a better educated youth and by one who will possess the power of converting his education into dollars and cents. He will possess greater po- tentiaIity. he will be of greater value to his community and country. In fact those that passed the Act intimated that the welfare of the nation depended upon it's success.
 Arizona was one of the first states to adopt the act; and the machinery for it's administration in the state is fully organized. Professor I. Colodny who has been appointed by the State Board of Control for Vocational Educa tion, state director, has personally vis- ited most of the high schools and he has expressed the expectation that most of the high schools in the state will be not far below the requirements of the Smith Hughes act when the schools reopen next fall
