AMERICAN WooDMAN NOTES

We are now about to enter into the
most important part, that is, oar
membership campaign. 1t is the de-
sire of the entire camp to increase
the number 100 per cent. We are all
confident that we will do it. The
commander has set aside all busi-
ness until after the campaign. All
forces, all eyes, are now turned to
the campaign.
Over the top we must go. It is al
all times best to take two steps for
ward than three backwards. Let us
stop and consider the age In which
We are living. Success is the goal.
Profit by mistakes that have been
made and pass 10 higher and nobler
Kings. All captains are urged to re-
siort TO the commander weekly as to
what they are doing.
Let us pull together, for house
divided within its own self cannot
stsnd. United efforts can and will
brig success. The officers Of the
camp are desirous Of seeing every
member present in camp.A. T. L.

EVERY SOLDIER
TO FIND PLACE,
COLONEL

NEW YORK, May 10.-Notwithstnd-
ing the return of the American Expedi-
tionary forces, the country will be
confronted by a shortage of labor by
1920 in the opinion expressed today by
Col. Arthur Woods, special assis-
ant to the Secretary of War.
Basing his conviction, both on his
own Investigations of the industrial
situation from the Mississippi river
to the Atlantic seaboard and as far
south as Baltimore, and on reports
made to him by members of the board
OF directors of the National Associa-
ton of Employment Managers, Colonel
Woods declared that employers were
showing disposition to give jobs to
discharged soldiers and sailors and
the time was approaching when every
man released from service would be
at work and there would be positions
untitled.
Reports made by the employment
managers, whom Colonel Woods ad-
dressed at a meeting here, showed
that already there are labor shortages
at number of great industrial CEN
tiers including Detroit and Flint, Mich,
and Akron, o., and that a labor short
age is in sight in Cleveland.
Colonel Woods went to the meeting
today to seek cooperation of the en-
ployment managers and found them
eager to employ the "doughboys" and
'gobs' returning to civil life.
Everyone with whom talked said
that the best boy for an employer was
a discharged soldier in his employ"
Colonel Woods said. 81 asked different
employment managers what their ex-
perience had been.
"The employment managers regard
ed the returned soldier as a real as
set"

SCHOOL PAYS
BIG DIVIDENDS
in AFTER LIFE

WASHINGTON, Mao 10.-The value
Of staying at school is stated in dol
lars and cents in figures compiled by
the Bureau of Education and now
being distributed to boys and girls
throughout the country by the chill
drens' bureau.
From a study of a large number of
actual cases it has been found that
at 25 years of age the boy who re-
manned in school until he was Is had
received $4,000 more salary than the
boy who left school at IA, and that
the better educated youth was then
receiving more than $500 a year more
in pay.
This is equivalent to an investment
of $4,000 at 5 per cent" the state
ment said. Can a boy increase his
capital as fast in any other way?'
From this time on the salary of
the better educated boy will rise
still more rapidly, while the earnings
of the boy who left school at IA will
increase but little.''
While wages have increased with
the war, the proportion shown in a
table of weekly earnings still holds
true, the statement said. The boy
who left school at IA at the time the
investigation was made received an
average of 81 a week, his wages in
creasing each year to 81 week at IS.
The boy who remained in school I'M
til he wac Is began work at $40 a
week. At 20 the salaries were $3.50 a
week for the boy who left school early
and SIS for his better trained compel
itor. At 25 they were earning $12.75
and $31 respectively, and total wages
up to that time had been $5,112.5O and
1887 so, so that the boy who remain
ed in school had earned nearly so
per cent more in eight years than
the other lad in II years.
Children should stay in school as
long as possible because educations
means better jobs" the childrens' bu-
reau urges. Boys and birls who go to
work at the end of grammar school
rarely get good Jobs. The work they
find to do is usually unskilled; it Of
fers little training or chance for ad-
vancement. When they are older they
find they are still unframed for the
skilled work which offers a future
Education means higher wages.
Many boys and birls when they
leave school find work that offers a
high wage for beginner. But these
wages seldom grow because the work
requires no training.
A position with a future and steadi
ly increasing wages requires schoo
training.
/ Does it pay to continue your stud
les? Education means successful an(
useful life; it pays the individual. Ed
ucation means efficient workers; il
pays the nation Show this to YOU
parents and ask them what they think
about it. Stay in school," =
