PINEAPPLE FIBER NOW
USED FOR MAKING CLOTH

London. - The pineapple, Curl
Gus as it may appear to people in
the Occident, who know it only as an
article of food, is used in China for
making cloth. At least it's leaves
are so used. The leaf fiber, after
being extracted by simple process,
is first made into thread. The thread
is then spoiled and run on bobbins.
Old-fashioned native looms next
handle the thread. converting it in

Charles Libby OF New Oxford, Pa.

had standing on Frederick street, and
was suddenly aroused to see a stran

United States Takes It Up.

During the last six months of the
war the United States was forced to
consider more carefully the conserva-
ton of her man-power. Development
battalions were therefore created In
this country and convalescent camps
In France where men who broke down
I'm the training or who were wounded
to be reclaimed. Here again physical
training played the chief role in refit-
ting these soldiers.
A story is being told of the famous
ball team In the development bat
talon at Camp Kearney 1t seems that
when the division from this camp left
for overseas they dumped into this
battalion the riff-raff of their organiza-
ton. so considered by the officers. Con-
yalescents from the base hospital were
also assigned to this battalion. Among
the group was q soldier who had lost
his right arm by accident-a south
paw luckily.
A young major, a West Pointer with
a vision was left behind in charge
of this motley battalion. Submerging
his disappointment, he set about max
ing soldiers out of the material In
hand. Within three weeks every man
in the 1,200 in his outfit was classified
and assigned to that type of physical
training best suited to his condition.
Every man belonged to some team and
played some game. Two men who
thought they were too weak to play
were assigned to the marble team and
for two hours every day played their
marble game. As the men developed

higher class.

Become Champions.
Several ball teams were formed. the
best one being captained by the one
armed pitcher of his team. This de-
velopment battalion baseball team.
made up of physically handicapped SOL
diers and some who were considered
mentally defective and otherwise unfit
to go overseas with their companies,
became the champions of the Pacific
coast.
To see the "crips," as they were
called, clean up the crack team from
the heavy artillery regiment was worth
a trip across the continent.
This team symbolized the spirit
which this major put into every man
In the development battalion. He did
1t by means Of physical training and
competitive games. Eighty-five per
cent of his men, formerly considered
the riff-raff, developed into A class
fighting men and went over.
Physical training has also had def
mite part in the hospitals and GONZALES
cent centers In restoring the wound
ed soldiers. Since the signing of the
armistice the thoughts Of the officers
In charge of this work were turned
from making fighting men to remaking
fighting civilians-men imbued with de-
termination and with a spirit to over
come every handicap.
Work Among convaIescents.
A great number of the physical train
ers formerly assigned to combat divi-
sions have been transferred to work
among the convalescent soldiers. In
the wards. light setting-up exercises
are given, but as soon as possible the
patient is ordered out of doors to en-
ter little more strenuous training.
Week by week his progress is noted
and week by week he is promoted into

that day when his maximum restora-
ton will be attained, his hardening
process completed, and he will be
ordered up for discharge.

Rebuilding
The Nations.
Fighters
BY LIEUT.. COL. HARRY e. MOCK,
Al e in HCarrN On ~

M. c., in "Carry On"
The pugilist and the ball player, the
wrestler and the football coach, even
the little Jap jiu-jtsu artist. all had
their very definite parts in the training
of the armies during this war. And
why? Because each had something
vital to contribute to the physical de-
velopment of the, soldiers, something
which made them better fighters, for
getful of fear, and able to care for
themselves when thrown on their own
responsibility in single-handed COM
bat with a dozen or more Huns.
All Of the warning nations used these
various forms Of physical development
in making their fighting men. Charac-
teristic of America, where athletics Of
all kinds have become so highly organ
lied, the training Of the soldiers In
every camp in the early days Of the
war resembled the preparation for a
huge athletic carnival. Physical train
ers Of every description were early mo-
biliZed and rendered invaluable service
In preparing our doughboys for the
great struggle overseas.
The country is now quite familiar
with all these efforts. But very few
people realize to what extent these
same methods and the same physical
trainers are assisting in the restora-
ton of the returning soldiers who have
been disabled in the war.
The physical training department Of
our hospital schools is the least talked
of division in the whole reconstruc-
ton program, and yet no division Is
doing more for the physical restora-
ton of these disabled men, to put the
fight back into them. than well-organ-
lied, enthusiastic physical training de-

Experience in England.

In England during these more than
four years Of war, the question Of man.
power became very critical. 1t was
necessary to salvage every wounded
soldier as rapidly as possible, and, pro-
viding he could be made fit again, to
return him to the firing line. This
was true in all the nations long In the
to find soldiers who have been wound
ed four and five times who were re-
turned after each recovery to the fight
The convalescent camps and COM
mand depots of England furnish excel
lent examples of the use Of physical
training in restoring these wounded
men. AS soon as their active hospital
treatment was completed the men were
promoted TO the cOnvalescent camps
Here well-trained physio-therapists
utilized every known method to over
come the stiffened joints and rebuild
the atrophled muscles. But great
part of every day was given to physi-
cal training, graduated and carefully
supervised by medical officers. Calls
themes, settlng-up exercises, games of
all descriptions and special develop
ment for individual cases were all
utilized. AS soon as these men had
sufficiently developed to permit OF
group rather than individual training
they were transferred to the command
depot where more strenuous exercises,
games and hardening processes were
INDUCED In. AS rapidly as men
reached the physical condition required
they were sent back to the front.
The French recognized the value Of
games In this physical training proc
ess to such an extent that they In
vented and described hundreds of new
games suitable for all physical types
of men, from the severe mutile to the
