The soldier patient, on leaving the
Pavilion Military Hospital, goes to
Roehampton, in the suburbs of Lon
don, where he is fitted with an arti-
fetal limb. When he is. discharged
from Roehampton, arrangements are
made for MIN with his local war pen
sions committee, for his return to
civil life and for the continuance of
his training. MIR. Baker says that 1t
Is just at the time of the mans re-
turn to civil life that special effort
should be made to keep up the mans
interest in his industrial training.
"This is thepsychologieal moment,
and it is of the utmost Importance
that facilities should be afforded for
the student to take up his next course
under very favorable conditions. Once
he is allowed to drift at this point it
is so easy for him to fall back into
idle habits and all the former part
of the training is lost"

DOG SLEDS TRANSPORT
1900 POUNDS OF GOLD

Anchorage, (Hy MaiD.-o thou
sand, three hundred pounds Of gold,
vauled at 100000, recently passed
through Anchorage on its way from
Iditarod to Seattle. In charge of
Robert Griffis, the veteran Wells Far
go Express messenger, the treasure,
packed in heavy wooden boxes and
loaded ON three dog sled was twenty
DAYS en- route from lditarod to Anc-
HORACE. The trip over the trail from
lditarod to Matanuska, where the
party boarded a train on the Govern
ment Railroad, was slow and arduous
on account of bad weather. At road
house on Happy River, the travellers
were stormebound seven days.
AS a result of the di;cuities and
delays on the trail between Iditarod
and Matanuska, Mr.. Griffis, who for
several years has transported gold
for the Wells Fargo Express Com
pany from the Interior to the Coast,
did not realize much, If any profit on
his journey this season. He under
took the moving of the metal from
lditarod to Seward at SIPS a pound.
His expenses on the trip this year
practically equaied his compensation.
The gold is owned by ganks and
dredge operators in the Iditarod coun-
try. To get it to the States they en-
trusted it, as is customary every
year, to the express company At
& ward Mr.. Griffis delivered the trea-
5, , to an agent of the company and
by him it was sent by steamship to
the Wells Fargo office in Seattle.

Women Must Urge
Cooperation


Self-determination is as much a part
OF the woman in industry movement
today as of world politics, according
to Mary Van Kleecl1, director of the
Woman in Industry Service of the
Department of Labor. Me-: w.,
Kleeck spoke at luncheon to the
women supervisors of the United
States Employment Service in con-
ference in Washington. She extended
to women representatives of the EN-
ployment Service as she has extend
ed to woinen interested in industry
throughout the country, an invitation
to take their problems to the Woman
in industry Service for suggestions
rnd advice.
Twenty years ago, the words COM
monty used in speaking of working
women by those interested We're pro
lection" and Safeguards" she said.
"These words echoed the first recog-
milton OF the exploitation of woman
hood as an economic and moral waste
They We're forerunners, like the first
noncommercial employment Offices sup
ported by private funds in an effort
i to help those who We're economically
weak.
Cooperation and power are key
words to the women in industry situa
/ ton today. Ideas that We're growth
! for years have been crystalized by the
war. The working woman has been
/ RECOGNIZED by the world as a powerful
/ economic factor. She knows her own
power No movement for her better
ment that does not take her into its
counselS and rely on her Judgment
can succeed, A group of alert women
in awestern state recently wrote to
the woman industry service in disnay
They had developed what they belle
we'd to be progressive program for
working women in their state. When
: they We're ready to carry it into effect
they were astonished to find that 1.-THE
women for whom they We're working
| disapproved of the measufes proposed
| The woman in industry service advis-
ed in all such cases that cooperation
with the working women is the first
essential to success.

HOW ENGLAND
RETAINS CRIPPLED
SOLDIERS

Superintendent A. c. Baker, OF
Queen Mary's workshops, relates an
interesting account of his experience
in "retraining crippled ex-service
men" in the December issue of the
Monthly Labor Review, published by
the Department of Labor.
Queen Mary's workshops are oper-
ated in connection with the Pavilion
Military Hospital at Brighton, Eng
land.
The patients at the Pavilion Mill
tary Hospital are soldiers who have
under gone anputation of one or
more limbs. They come to this hospi-
tai as soon as they are able to leave
the base hospital, but while they are
still in need of medical treatment.
Fly the joint operation or workshops
and hospital the men receive the Gu
rative effects of industrial work at
the same time they are being given
medical treatment.
] lie workshops classes afford in
struction in such trade subjects as
motor mechanics, metal fitting and
turning, electrical engineering, COM
mercial subjects, motion-plcture ma
chine operating, cabinetmaking, turn
cry and joinery,. boot and shoe maxi
ing and repairing, tailoring, meehani-
cal drafting, carving and letter cult
ing, stained-gIass work, and design
ing.
The superintendent is Of the opin.
ion that instructors in this refrain
ing must be specially fitted for their
duties, since he does not think that
the usual methods of vocational in.
struction are satisfactory.

CRITICISMS OF.
DANIELS TOGO
BEFORE BOARD
Knight Naval Awards Commit
tee Takes Up Refusal of Of
ficers to Accept the Distin-
guished Service Medals.

Washington. Dec. 27.-All criticisms
of Secretary of the Navy Daniels
awards of war medals, including that
Of Admiral Sims, who refused the dis
tinguished service medal, will 90 be-
fore the Knight naval awards board,
which meets here Jan. g., Daniels said
today.
The board will be directed by Dan
iels to consider all criticisms and II
necessary redraft the present list of
awards. Daniels changed the first rec
concentrations of this board.
Daniels announced today that he
had received letters from Admirals
Wilson, commander of the Atlantic
fleet, and Mayo former commander
calling his attention to the fact that
some of their recommendation for
awards had not been followed. Meth
er of these officers. however. has re-
fused to accept decorations.
Daniels also said that he had re-
ceived letters from Admiral Jones
commander of the first division Of the
Atlantic fleet, and Captain Raymond
Hasbrouck, commander Of the battle
ship Minnesota, refusing their decora-
tions, because they did not agree with
Daniels policy in awarding war hon.
ors.
Daniels action in deciding on a re-
view of the awards means that the
entire controversy will be settled bS
the naval officers themselves.
II don't want any aftermath of thi'
war" Daniels said. II hope that thu
board will act on the awards In sucf
a way as to make their decision fina
and so that can submit the report t.
the president; trust that the boare
will act so wisely in the matter that ]
will be settled finally by the officer
themselves"
