The school to which he is sent may be any
one of the institutions of learning Whlch
have agreed to take men sent by the BOARD
The one thousand schools now listed with the
board include colleges and technical schools
of the highest standing. Some of them oher
tuition free to former soldiers. others ac-
cept the regular tuition fees, which are pald
out of the $2,000,000 appropriated by con-
gress for the board last June.
Besides the schools, factories are cooper
ating with the board This is especially inn
portant because some trades, such as print
ing can be learned through factory appren-
ticeship. The eX-sOldier is in no case under
any expense for tuition, and throughout the
time of his instruction he receives slXty-nVe
dollars a month for expenses, with the same
allowance for dependents as during his serv-
ice in the army He leaves the school or shop
Iself-supporting and without fear of being

The connection of the Bureau of War Risk
Insurance with the Vocational Education
Board is not generally understood. Enlisted
men injured in service so that they are COS
abled, either totally or partially, are entit.ed
to monthly compensation from the war RISK
Insurance Bureau, a matter entirely GlslnCt
from a War Risk Insurance policy. When
disabled man applies for this compensation
and it is awarded, the War Risk Bureau IL
forms him that he is eligible to receive all
from the Vocational Education board, WIN
out a decision of the War Risk Bureau,
der cannot be considered as an applicant to
the Vocational Education Board for govern
ment training in school or shop.
The first practical attempt to ind new
places in civil life for the wounded soldiers
was made by Belgian in French city. A
group of homeless Belgian wounded applied
to the Speaker of the Belgian House OF
Representatives for aid. He took them into
his home, and when he found that they
wished to try again the old trades, he let
them cobble shoes in his parlOr, raise vege-
tables in his garden, and turn his dining
room into a general workshop. He found
that they were so much happier when they
were working, and that some picked up a
trade by watching the others.
He appealed to the Belgian Minister OF
Finance for funds in order to increase the
number of men under his care. Later the
Belgian congress provided money to build
extra shacks about the house. In this way
vocational help for the wounded got start,
with such excellent results that France, Eng
land Italy, Canada and finally the United
States followed the Belgian example.
In the two hundred hospitals overseas
which shelter American wounded, the same
help by vocational advisers is offered as in
this country. Application cards are given to
disabled men leaving the overseas hospitals
with the invitation to fill them out and mail
them to the Vocational Education board when
thew reach the United States. These cards
have lust begun to come into the boards
offices.

which distinction a politician even of the

very naturally fail to draw especially in a

The South as a Sugar BowZ.

touching the South's growth in sugar re-
hner1es OF which one of the largest was re-
Gently established at Savannah, the Augusta
Chronicle remarks that fifty-fve per cent of
the sugar consumed in the United States now
comes from Cuba, where ''production has vir-
tually reached it's maximum under existin q
conditions" and that in order to supply the
ever-increasing demand new fields must be
developed.
Some idea of the present shortage may be
gathered from the fact that when we entered
the war this country's monthly consumption
OF sugar amounted to seven and a half
pounds per capita, or more than twice as
much as is now available. 1t has been OBJ
served, moreover, for years past that the
world as whole has been increasing it's
per capita consumption of sugar and there
is no reason to expect that this tendency
checked for the time being, will not resume
Evidently, then, there are extraordinary op-
portunities for regions and people that can
produce this staple.
1t is the opinion of experts, we are remind
ed, that Georgia and Florida have natural
resources capable of supplyin., the whole
amount of sugar which the Unite States now
imports. The stupendous Industrial POSSIBLE
ties thus afforded will be developed no doubt
as improved methods of cane growing are
popularized, and sugar refneries, with their
assurance of regular market, are establish
ed. The progress of the last few years shows
indeed, how substantial a beginning has been
made by Southern States that are COMPARE
lively new in this field of enterprise, and
points to the continued and increasing suc-
cess of their efforts.
