Training School to Develop More
Officers for Tasks Of
Reconstruction.
TO HAVE LARGER BUILDING
College Gives MEN and Women Severe
Tests for Social Welfare Work
Students Trained With
Care and Patience.

New York.--The Salvation army,
now that the war is over, is planning
and preparing for its work Of recon
struction. The active part that the
army took In the war called many of
Its officers and men to France, many
are still there and may be for some
time, and since the army and Its work
has been growing and expanding there
Is at present a real need for more
officers. A few days ago the army
graduated class of fifty-four officers,
thirty-three Of whom were women.
When the next class is sent out it
will be twice this number.
This institution trains its students
with infinite care and patience. 1t
has its training college at 1888 West
Twenty-second street, which Is in
charge of Colonel Charles Miles, who
has been a member of the army for
ihirty-eight years. In the near future
the army will either purchase or erect
\ larger and more commodious college
building at an expense, If necessary,
Of between 100000 and $500,000.
Many College Graduates.
Many officers today In the Salvation
army are collage or university grad
mates, and others were just graduated
from the worlds school Of hard
knocks. They are all, however, men
and women Of more than average in
selIigence, and some have made really
great sacrifices for the privilege Of
wearing the simple blue uniform of
the organization. OF the class just
graduated one young man won honors
una degree at Cornell university,
and seventeen of them were in the
eountrys service during the war, one
Of whom won the croix de guerre.
Since the war many soldiers and sail
ors have expressed a desire to join the
organization.
1t is not an easy matter to become
an officer in the Salvation army be-
cause the organization is exceedingly
particular about getting the right kind
Of men and women to guide its des-
TIMES, and, although many are called
few are chosen, and a person before
becoming an officer is put through a
rather severe acid test. Some can
lidates are quickly disillusioned at
the outset by the smallness of the pay,
for lieutenants and captains receive
but 50 and So a week, and must pay
Tor their board and lodging out of
his sum, and they also pledge them
selves to remain with the army for
life They must devote all their ener-

AirpIane Factories Are Not Good
NeighbOrS.
France Warns U. S.: Don't Build
Plants Near Human
Habitation.

Paris.-With the certainty that avia-
ton is quickly to become one of the
big industries throughout the entire
world, Paris has little warning for
all of her sister cities Of America and
every other country.
The warning is this: Enact imme-
dlately, either state, municipal or ma
tional legislation prohibiting the ercc-
ton of airplane factories anywhere
within hearing distance Of where hui
man beings have to live and sleep.
Otherwise, said human beings won't
be able to sleep and will be driven In
no time at all either into their graves
or some far-away sanitarium.
Everyone Knows how much rumpus
an airplane makes when it is flying
thousands of feet overhead. Well,
every airplaLs motor before it Is
mounted has to be tested, and to be
tested 1t is attached to huge bench
or platform and run continuously at
top speed, with hundreds Of horse
power back of it, for at least twenty
four hours and sometimes fOrty-eight.
During that period Of time nobody
living within hearable distance can
possibly sleep.
At Suresnes, where motors are test
ed for forty-eight hours, 1t has been
necessary to close an adjacent school.

his willingness to do cheerfully any
kind Of task assigned him. He Is
Immediately sent out on the streets
with the corps and often to a tough
neighborhood in the city where he
may encounter decidedly unfrlendly
element. Almost at the start he must
make his prayer or plea to the night
crowd on che street corner. If at the
end of his period he has shown the
proper spirit he is then sent to the
army training college. The course
here is nine months. He pursues q
course Of Bible study, learns the Gus
toms and laws of the organization, and
attends lectures. If he does not pos
sess the sticking qualities demanded
Of Salvation army officers, or shows
that he is not fitted for the work, he
is frankly told so, and is advised to
return to his home town where he
may nevertheless work for the organ
izatlon. and take up for his life work
some other lire of endeavor for which
he is better fitted. At the college the
army exercises a weedlng-out process
so that 1t may make no mistake in its
selection of officers. Many who aspire
to attain rank are quick to realize
that they are not intended for such
rigorous social welfare work, and are
frank to say so when they realize the
sacrifice and hard work 1t entails.
At the outbreak Of the war the Sal
walton army pledged itself to serve
and stand by the nation. Almost every
member was engaged in some kind of
war work, and large percentage of
the organization was in France.

gies to the organization, and are not
permitted to labor outside of their
work for remuneration. A major-and
one must have worked long and faith
fully to attain such a high rank--re-
ceives salary of $21 week and a
small allowance for house rent and
for each child. Most of the higher
and older officers in the army could
so out into the world and make "a:
living without any difficulty, and they
have been frequently offered lucrative
positions, which they have refused be-
cause they have preferred to be faith
full to their trust.
To become an officer in the organi-
cation a candidate must possess a
certain degree Of natural intelligence,
must love the Lord and his neighbor,
and must possess the indefnable some
thing known as the Salvation army
spirit.

Before being admitted to the train
ing college a candidate is first as
signed to an army corps for period
of six months. He is there given an
opportunity to prove that he is made
of the right sort of stuff by showing

Noise Stops Sleep

At Puteaux the inhabitants declare
they have not slept for months.
At Courbeyoie the city council has
resigned as a means Of protest.
AtClichy the city has bought large
tract of land for the erection Of a mu-
nicipal hospital. Airplane factories
during the war installed themselves in
the vicinity and the medical authorl-
ties now refuse to let the city build it's
hospital in such a death-insuring To-

The department Of the Seine has

health to take measures to stop the
airplane factories and get them moved
into more isolated localities.
