At the regular meeting of the local
chapter of the Military Sisterhood yes
terday afternoon, a resolution was
passed expressing strong approval of
| the system adopted by. the govern
ment for the education of the boys of
the nation thru the S. A. r. c., and
to those boy who have enlisted before
entering college when they return
from the war. There are many of
| these boys who would have entered
college had the war not interfered
and it is in response to q feeling that
justice would in this way be rendered
them.
One of the most worth while fea-
| lures of the Sisterhood meetings is the
reading of extracts from the soldiers
letters. One boy write that he doesn't
want to be anything but a private in
| Uncle SANS army in France. Those
who are given opportunity to come
home to serve as instructors in the
training camps are, according to an
other letter. ''the bluest bunch in the
army" If there are any soldiers
wives, mothers or sweethearts in To-
peka who need to be checred up, they
should attend the Sisterhood meetings,
for there they will get first hand evil
| dence of the contentment of the boys
| in France, and the great things they
| are doing in a great way.
One of the pleasantest features of
| the meeting was a song by Mrs. Gar
yey of her own composition. 1t went
straight from the heart of a mother
