BEHOLD THE PERFECT MAN!

Now, all the world is queer bit, eX-
cepting me and you,
And you've remarked, I'm sure of it,
I'm queer little too.
So, when the matters sifted out,
which you and. have done,
Crea$on's hopes are, just about, ex-
pressed in you alone.
When darkness dwelt on formless
void, the pail of primal night,
Was lifted when the chaos cloyed.
and thought of you brought
light!
When first the fishes swan the sea-
and feathered tribes the air,
The biggest whale, God knew you'd
be; as eagle-soar up there!
No lions roar should quite avail,
your tuneful soul to move,
No Bird of Paradise tail could grow
that you'd approve!
No sapient Judge of chicken show can
lay you on the shelf,
Of hens, what does a rooster know
You are some bird yourself!
No matter what-or bird, or beast, or
man, or womankind-
There's not one but has, at least
a minor flaw to find.
But, still, it's nice to have you round,
when one is in the lurch-
Not certain whether lost, or found
or when to go to church
Or what he can afford to give to this
also, to that,
And pay ones honest debts and live
not passing round the hat,
Or, whether pay ones grocers bill
past due long time since,
Or biff the grocer on his pill for his
impertinence.
Why wOrry-when there's one like
you, who by ones side doth
stand,
And knows it all right off the bat
and lends greasy hand?
No question of theology, of peace
terms, science, art
But you've the answer to a T, and
ready to impart!
OF course you're right, and sweet-u
UNI too, patent right-the best
Test all-why, that's the thing to do
and that's your gift-to test;
For each should on his bottom stand
and when you've clearly shown
The wabbly legs l don't command
you've braced your wabbly
own!
You thus fulfill your mission well;
sometime reward is due:
Well-when the rest are all in hell
what's left will be TO ryou!
Tne-all alone, no folks, no fleas; the
critics labors cease,
In shade-but, my, where are the trees:
His end is peace-just peace!

GERMANY OVERLOOKING
WITH PAPER CURRENCY

BERLIN, Nov. 15.--The Ores
dener bank of Berlin states that
circulation of paper currency in
Germany amounted to 40,12O,0 00,-
900 marks on September 23 last,
as compared to 2,20O,200,0 600 in
peace times. The bank estimates
that 5000, 100000 marks of Ger
man paper money is held abroad
and that about $4,000, 100000 re-
mains in Germany. German indus
try, according to the bank, has been
held in check by the revolution, po-
litical unrest, strikes and unwill-
ingness to work. Many firms and
industries are said to have been
able to keep going only by using
their reserve funds. The ~unfavor-
able status of the mark in the world
exchanges is attributed to the flood
of German money that has gone
abroad to pay for imports estimated
at 1000, 000, 900 marks since the
revolution. At present the bank
sees a tendency toward a decrease in
the number of strikes and toward
an increase in coal production.

Y. NJ. C.. A. TO GIVE
MILLION FOR
EDUCATION
10000 FREE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR
DISCHARGED SOLDIERS
AND SAILORS

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.--Appro-
priation of 100000 by the ma,
tional wal work council of the
Young Mems Christian Association.
for $4,000 free scholarships for
honorably discharged American SOL
diers and sailors, or marines, wes
announced here today by Williem
Sloane, chairman. The scholarships
will include 10000 in Y. M. c. A.
or other accredited schools, $4,000
in correspondence instruction, and
200 in universities, colleges and
technical schools.
The plan is intended to be a con-
tinuation of the "Y" educational
system established with the Ameri-
can expeditionary forces abroad and
details of the curriculum, will be
completed tomorrow by official "Y"
representatives from every state who
will meet in Battle Creek, Mich, for
that purpose. Americans who served
with any of the allies, or mi of
Americans who died in service dur
ing the war, will also be eligible
for certain of the scholarships. APP
plications, it was said, would be re-
ceived starting tomorrow, at every
Y. NJ. C. A. in the United States.
I'm April, 1919" said Mr.. Sloane.
"the ~so-called khaki college organ
lied under General Pershing's order
by the American Y. M. C. A. at a
cost Of 100000 in France, Bel
GUM, Germany and Great Britain,
was turned over to the val depart
ment, together with it's entire per-
sonnet of 400 Y. M. C. A. instruct
ors. The speed with which the
troops we're dispatched home and
demobilized cut short the service
planned.
The army's and navy's respon-
sibility for the education of the
service man ceased upon return to
civil life. Occupational readjust-
ment, together with the high cost
of living, has made additional train
ing all the more necessary for ex-
service men. The unrest Of the
present day and the spreading of
exaggerated radicalism, known as
b%olshevism, also demands wider &C
quaintance with principles of eco
Monies, history and current events.
For these reasons, the war work
council of the Y. M. C. A. has de-
cided to continue its free educationa
service"
Seventy per cent of the 4,S00,0 900
men who served in the American
army and navy during the war
came from rural communities, ac-
cording to "Y" statisticians. For
these men, most Of whom have now
returned home the 10000 corre-
s%pondence courses will be offered.
The school equipment in more than
1000 "Y's" throughout the country
and valued at $1O7,S3O,00 will be
utilized.

MANY ENGLISH WOMEN
BECOMING PHYSICIANS
ADDED FACILITIES FOR TRAIN.
ING BRING WOMEN
INTO FIELD

LONDON, Nov. 1S.-Shortage OF
physicians in this country. which
was greatly increased by the war, is
giving women a golden opportunity
to enter the medical profession.
Hundreds of demobilized war work
ers, especially nurses, are taking
advantage of it.
Before the war, few facilities
we're offered English women for
training as physicians and further
more they encountered a prejudice
on the part of all classes that was
strong enough to daunt even the
most determined. That prejudice
against women doctors" was al
most entirely swept away by the
heroic and efficient medical serv-
ice performed by women during the
war.
Hospital schools of medicine from
which women students formerly
were barred are now open to them.
Many hospitals and other health in
stitutions include women on. their
boards of management, and public
positions which used to be filled
only by men are now open to women
doctors as well. Resident hospital
posts have been made available for
qualified women physicians. en-
abling them to secure extremely val
liable experience.
Except oxford and Cambridge, all
the British universities have opened
their medical degrees to women.
