In common with other camps. Cam
Hancock received a large contingent
Of these foreign speaking men and
they have been placed in development
battalious, to receive the necessary
instruction in English At the pres
emit time there is enc school contain
ing about 145 of these men, divided
into ten classes, the classes being held
ia the in1rmary building and also in
Y Hut 75
The personnel OF the school shcxs
the following ,Aauonalities represent
ed Italian, jewish Russian Greek
Syrian and Roumaniau ana to see
them at work each day in their class
rooms is to realize the truth of the
statement that America is the melt
ing pot OF toe world The men realize
their deficiency in English and are
eager to learn, knowing that when
they do learn they win be given the
chance for which they are preparing
that of going across" and doing their
bit for their adopted country
The ultimate goal of the instructors
is Of course to make efficient soldiers
out of them, but in the process Of so
doing, il is necessary to show them
why they are being made into soldiers
why the Allied cause is a Just one and
why this countr y has entered the
struggle The foreigners apathy to
this war in a large majority of cases
is not because he is unwilling to fight
but because he does not know what he
is fighting for Give him reason to
fight and let him know why we are
a war and he becomes eager to enter
the fray
This is what the school is endeavor-
ing to do and to the more advanced of
the men is given Fundamentally Of cit

requirements such as general orders,
sslutes, and the various military court
estes which they will have to use. They
are also taught to write as well as
read and talk English and by the time
they finish with their course of in
struction it is the hope of the instruct
ors that they win be able to turn
over to Uncle Sam a body Of men who

Beyond Writer'S Power.

Coningsby Dawson says, in telling OF
his Discrimination to keep even a note
book after he went to the front, though
he had been a professional writer:
Zone has a strange feeling about
books when he is in the immediate
presence of death. l remember an
anecdote of a great Swedish writer
which partly illustrates my mood
The watchers by his bedside thought
he was dead. Suddenly he raised him
self up.
"sNow 1 could write he whispered
They were his last words.
"In the light Of my experience al
the front I know what he meant. The
petty personal problems which we
cloak in words and call literature
seem so ignoble a presentation of men
and women who ire planned for I'M
mortality and live In an infinite world
l went to France fully intending to
keep a record of what 1 felt and saw
there. l O O found that what felt
and saw was too grave to put on pa
per; I cheapened myself in my OWE

Bio Storm Recalled.

Just thirty years ago In January,
the worst storm in the history Of the
United States weather bureau ragged
over the central West, taking a toll of
more than 200 lives and killing thou
sands Of farm animals. "Old-timers"
asserted there had been a storm Of
equal, if not worse proportions, in lSSO,
but there are no definite records on the
first storm, and it is known to have
been more locally confined than the
"great storm of 49," The storm origi-
mated in Nebraska and extended to
central Iowa and Wisconsin eastward
and to the Montana line on the west.
The temperature was about freezing
when the storm started, but by the
next morning it had dropped to 54 de-
grees below zero in South Dakota.
Grand Forks, n. D., reported q tenn
pcrature of 50 degrees below, while at
Sioux City, Ia, it was % below. Near
Mitchell, S. D., q farmer and his son
were unable to reach the house five
rods distant before the boy was frozen
to death.
