WANT TO GET OUT;
 EDUCATIN SELVES

Somebody Slipped one over" on the Colored Development battalion at Camp Travis, and although the joke at first created consternation among the members, it has worked untold good in the cases of more than 100 of them.
 When the order for Rehabilitation first reached Camp Travis, rumors spread thick and fast as to what was going to be done with the colored troops. Some were told they were going to be sent to Germany, others heard they would be required to re- build torn-up France and Belgium, while some even heard that an invad- ing army of negroes was going to he CT ganized to restore conditions in Russia.
 The most alarming of these reports, however. was that before any man could get his discharge from the army he must learn to read and write. and that he must sign his own name to his dis charge papers. Now, the Colored De velopment battalion is made up chiefly Of illiterates, and only few of them know the alphabet. Anyway, the ne- groes saw no hope for future freedom unless they immediately set to work "educatin' themselves" as some of them expressed it.
 The report reached an officer of the Army Y. M. c. A. and he immediately saw an opportunity of pushing his edu- cational work in these hitherto un- touched ranks. The result has beer tEat in the battalion more than, one hundred negroes have learned to read and write and now one of the fads in the organization is for the men to carry spelling books and readers around with thom. Every time an officer isn't looking many of the men can be found at their favorite pastime of "educatin' themselves"
 In addition to this 300 others who at some time or other had learned to read and write. but who through negli- gence had forgotten how, were able t. "brush up" and refresh their memo. rles to an extent that they are able to do both again.
 There are some 200 others in the battalion who had been in school as far as the third grade, and these have taken up studies which are in advance of those grades, Three soldier teach CTS and three "Y" secretaries have handled these classes which have been in session from 9 to II 80 o'clock in the morning and from l :15 to in the afternoon.
 Officers in charge at Camp Travis are highlyspleased with this work. and say it Is among the most important being done by the educational divi- fsiop of the '. M, 0. A.

New Workers awoke one morning to find in their breakfast headlines the news that jealous park employee had discovered signs of disintegation on the surface of the city's most treasured antique-Cleopatra Needle. Photo graphs revealed that the monolith was peeling, large pieces of sandstone hav- ing fallen from the tall shaft, carrying with them part of the prized hiero- glyphs.
 London's twin sister of Cleopatra's Needle was reported as resting con- fortably and enduringly on the banks of the Thames, and the rival port won- dered whether a preparation would be found to. stay the attacks of their harsher climate.

PAINT PROTECTION
 AND ITS ECONOMY.

The preservation of structural ma. terlals, which may be obtained through the application of paint. constitutes a most vital means of furtherng the con- servation of our natural resources. It IS, moreover, the most economical method Of sustaining the appearance and general upkeep of any commu- nifty.
 structure coated with sheets of In- dia rubber would not be as well protect- ed from decay as a. structure coated with good oil paint This is due to the fact that a sheet of rubber is not so durable or as waterproof as a thin dried nim or paint. The latter mate rial when applied dries to continuous elastic hlm containing finely divided particles of metallic, wear resisting pigments. A square foot of sucb a nm upon wooden surface costs less than penny. yet it will beautify and protect dollars worth of surface for many years This is a low rate of in- surance.

En1ucs, BALLS 70 RUN
 LEAGUES 347 YEARS
Also 52 Miles of Bats-.F urniS5f I
 American Troops by Y. M. C.. Hs |

On the basis of there being play, | five new balls for each game, enough basebaI1s have been furnished the Amer ican troops by the Army Y. NJ. c. A. to run the National league and the American association for 347 years. Allowing two new balls for each game, there were enough baseballs to play Il series of 9 sand-lot games for 7,149 clubs.
 There were 355955 baseballs bought and shipped by the "Y" from July, 1917, to November 90, 1918. for the use of our army. Side by side they would reach 1872 miles. and would make a solid fence of baseballs six feet high for threef0urths of mile.
 Over 100000 bats were also fur nished. Placed end to end, they would reach B miles. End to end in the air, they would rise to ten times the height of the highest mountain in the world, or be equal in height to 5G9 Washington monuments one on top of the other. If these were made in this fashion into one long bat, n man with the build and elbow grease of a giant could stand in your town, swing the bat and hit everything in radius of g miles.
 Among other things furnished our boys by the Y. M. c. A. for the carry ing out of the national sport were 2,22O baseman's mitts, 4120 catchers mitts, 4,965 fielder's gloves, 4.9G6 masks, 200 bases, so home plates, and 2.743 in- dicators.

Meats in Storage .

Every working day of the year 75,00O,OOO pounds of meat are required to supply home and export needs-and only 10 per cent of this is exported These facts must be kept in mind when considering the U. s. Bureau of Markets report that on June ], 1913, there were l,343O0o,OoO pounds of meats in cold storage. If the meat in storage was placed on the market it would only be 20 days supply.
 This meat is not artihcially withheld from trade channels to maintain or advance prices.
 Meats in storage consist of-- 65 per cent (approxnlate) hams, bacon etc., in process of curing. It takes 90 to 90 days in pickle Or salt to complete the process.
 10 per cent is frozen pork that is to be cured later in the year.
 per cent is lard. This is only four -hftns of pound per capita, and much of it will have to go to supply European needs. 1o per cent is frozen beef and lamb. part of which is owned by the Government and was intended chiefly for overseas ship ment. If this all diverted to donles- tic trade channels, it would be only 1E2 lbs. per capita-a 3 days supply. loo%
 From this if will be seen that "yY1aats in storage" represent merely un- finished goods in process of curing and theworking supply necessary to assure the consumer steady flow of finished product.
