GERMAN ARMY HAS
NO STANDARD FOR
DIVISION NUMBER

Coblenz-There is no longer any
set standard for the strength of a
division in the German army, say
American experts. This is regarded
as important in view Of the fact
that delegates at the peace confer
ence not long ago suggested that
the German army be limited to six
divisions.
At the beginning of the war a
German division comprised about
10000 men. In the latter part of
the war the divisions consisted OF
three infantry and one artillery
regiments, with pioneers, signalmen
and various other technical troops
numbering approximately 5000
men. At present, it is declared, no
division in the German army has s.
900 men and there are probably di-
visions with less than one thousand
men.
In demobaization it has obvious
ly been the policy to make the regi-
ment the prime unit but to retain
in existence all divisional stats of
divisions which existed in July,
1914.

SALVATION ARMY
BORROWED FIRST
FUNDS FOR WORK

Many years have slipped by
since the American public hurled
vile sneers at the Salvation army
lassies, but it did at one time a
long, long while ago. Now it opens
its pocketbooks and losses coins to
the girls who took their lives in
their hands to bring comfort and
food to the lads in the trenches.
This popularity of ours is very
beautiful declares Commander
Evangeline Booth. 81 am not quite
used to it. hope it lasts"
The success of the Salvation
army during the war and the new
recognition of its work has been
due to three things, according to
Commander Booth. She says:
When the war cloud burst the
Salvation army was ready-ready
with what was needed most, the
human mechanism, trained men and
women. We could have sent more
workers to the fronts, but we pre-
ferred to run the risk on quantity
rather than on quality. The army
was not ready with money, how
ever, and we had to borrow SEE, 900
to send the first group over. Later
we borrowed 100000. But our
credit has been always good, and
within a year the money had been
all paid back.

On the importance of Neolin Soles

thousands of parents who agree with

Ask for Neolin-soled shoes when
