Educational Courses.

In striking contrast with the reasons
given by those desiring TO remain In
Europe for business purposes are those
presented by men desiring 20 take edu-
Cational courses Since it wills noised
through the expedition that men ambi-

France and Italy would be able to Sc
cure unlimited leaves of absence and the
possibility of remaining until their
studies were completed, applications

FEW IN ARMY WANT
TO STAY IN EUROPE
Many Soldiers, However, Are Eager
to Get Leave of Absence for
College Work.
BY JUNIUS II. WOOD.

Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1913.

CHAUMONT, France. February IL
What percentage of the Americans
wish to return to France to live after
the war is a question frequently ask
ed in America. The actual figures
show that an astoundingly small
number has so far expressed such in
tentions. Under the latest ruling of
the War Department, any officer or
enlisted man showing good and suffi-
cient reasons for remaining in France
and satisfying headquarters of his
ability to support himself will be
granted his discharge here. In addi-
ton he receives a mileage rate of Y
cents between either St. Afghan. in
France. or Winchester, England, the
mastering out centers, to the base
port and also from Hoboken. n. j.. to
the enlistment point in the United
States The only requirement is that
he shall waive his claim to a subse-
Quent ocean passage.
Out of close to 1000, 900 men in the
expedition less than 125 have applied
for mastering out in Europe for the
purpose of remaining in France de-
pending on their own resources.

GLACIER STREAM CARRIES AWAY TWO SPANS OF BRIDGE AND

Tom Gibson, who arrived from chiuna Sunday evening with his mail stage, reports that two spans of the long bridge two and a half miles this side of AIillers roadhouse on the Val deg trail, have been washed out by a sudden rise of the glacier stream.
 Every year more or less trouble is caused by this stream and parts of the bridge across it have been re u,arcdly destroyed. It is practically impossible to ford the stream with automobiles at it's present high stage, and until the water recedes or the bridge is repaired it will be necessary for transfer to cars on the other side Mr Gibson reports the greater part of the raIl between here and Chitira as being in good condition.
