The two pictures are of the same

day he enlisted and the second after
he had had five months military train
ina. His home is in North Carolina.
earning capacity, and that it was the
best investment any young man could
make.
"Billie, if you will go up to my room
and bring my small handbag, 1 viii
let you see two photographs of the
same young man, showing what only
five months of intensive training on
the Mexican border did for him."
The bag was brought. Uncle Dan,
showing the pictures, said: "Well,
here they are. They tell their own
story and it is a mighty interesting
one. The young man, before training,
has a discouraged look; he has seen
but little of the world. There was
very little in his surroundings to bring
him out. When he Joined the colors
and Uncle Sam took him in charge,
life for him took on a new meaning.
He saw a chance to do something and
be something. He woke up. His cap
tain says he is twice the man he was
when he joined the army. This may
be one of the extreme cases." said
Uncle Dan. Il can tell you, though,
that war or no war, no one thing will
do the young men of this nation so
much good in so short a time as few
months of intensive military training.
1t fits q man to fight his own life bat
ties in the business world as well as
to defend his country and its flag.
NEARLY every civilized country gives
its boys military training. 1t is COM
puisory. 1t is based upon the fact that
it is the duty of everyone to help de-
fend his country; and as war is now
carried on. no one can do much unless
he is trained Also, the records show
that the killed and wounded among
unframed troops is nearly three times
as great as it is with well-trained men
who know how to fight and how to
protect themselves. By this PLAN q
nation has trained men to defend her
and the individual is a stronger and
better man for the training.
eff the Chamberlain Bill for Mill
tary Training is passed by congress,
as it ought to be, the same thing would
be done for millions of other young
men throughout the land Everybody
ought to demand of his congressman
and senators the passage of this
bill"

"Well," said Jimmie, 81 was down to
Galesburg a few months ago when the
boys came home from the Mexican
border. They looked fine. Everybody
was surprised to see how straight they
stood and how manly they were The
boys seemed proud to wear the uni
form. 1 tell you their muscles were as
hard as nails. / heard Banker Haskell
say that the training and discipline
the boys had had was exactly what
every boy in the country ought to
have, and that now these boys could
get a better job at higher pay than
they could have had before. Do you
think that's so, Uncle Dan?"
Uncle Dan replied: II have a
friend who employs hundreds of young
men. He always gives boys having
had military training the preference
he says 1t pays to do so. He finds
they are more alert, more prompt.
more courteous; they know how to
carry out orders; they are quicker to
think and to act than those without
training. He said from his experience
he believed that six or eight months
of intensive military training would
add at least 20 per cent to a mans

LATEST GERMAN LIE
Cologne Zeitung Admits Amer.
lean ''Picked Men" Are
Fighting Well
By the Associated Press


Amsterdam. Aug. Il.
An antidote to the opinions of Cen
erals Won Blume and Won Liebert, who
see menace in a large American army
on the western front, already has ap-
peared in the Cologne zeitung. To calm
the German public. the Tuesday edition
Of the Zeitung contained a long article
attempting to prove by statistics that
America cannot possibly send 100000
men to Europe in a month. The article
declares that more than forty troopships
already have been sunk. 1t continues:
If the Americans at the front are
lighting well that does not need to cause
surprise, for 1t is the fine flower of
American manhood which is now at the
front, namely, the old regular army,
plus about 10000 of the most sturdy and
most adventurous elements, which all
nations have. who volunteered at the
outbreak of the war Then there will
be scontingents recruited from the New
England States. who are the best-edu-
Gated and keenest fighters because their
heart is in the business
so We get an aggregate of from 200,-
900 to 100000 picked men : but once
these are used up the picture will be al
tered. because they cannot be replaced"
The Zeitung believes that compulsory
military service is widely opposed, and
10 being evaded in the United States. and
I 1t builds hope on the slender basis that
American casualty lists will increase this
alleged repugnance. The article con-
cludes with these arguments
The Americans are not supermen
militarily and less so than in other re-
spects. America may build standard
ships, but she cannot turn out standard
soldiers.
~ America has done more than many
expected, even in America but despite
all surprises. American expert opinion
that the full weight of her military
power will not develop before 1919, oil
even 1920, holds good"
