WARSAW, July u.-P )land's Wo. mems Battalion, of which the world heard so much in the last two years, is being demobilized. The majority Of it's 5000 members are returning to domestic pursuits after more than two years of military service. A small percentage will remain in gov ernment service as instructors of military education for women in schools which are being set up for them in Warsaw, Cracow and Posen. Our casualties have been little more than one hundred We lost forty killed at Lemberg and about fifty at Wilma. Now that peace pros poets are so bright for Poland our task is done. and most of my sol. dicrs will go to their homes, those that have them, to be good wives and mothers. as women should.
 It will interest Americans to know that two members of our battalion married members of General Hallers' Legion of Polish-Americans. who came over to help in the critical days Of the war and have returned with them to make their homes in the United States. I have never been to America, but l know all about it, be- cause I am q great reader, and know that they will find great con- solation in a new, prosperous coun. try that has not been swept by armies.

ONE COMPANY REMAINS

Fifty of our women soldiers have married while in the service. If they married soldiers they continued in the battalion in preference to returning home, as long as their husbands were also in the army. All those who have married have re- turned to domestic pursuits, in fact. when our demobilization scheme is completed all of the 5000 members of the battalion will have left the service. except one company, which is still doing duty at Wilma.
 Formed originally for the defense of Lemberg against the Ukrainians. it was not our intention to serve so long under arms, but the circum- stances of war made it imperative It has been a pleasure thus to serve our country, and many of us are 10th to lay aside our uniforms. The company that I have on guard duty at the barracks here is the battalion's pride. It does not want to leave the service. Many of it's members will go into the training schools.
 Our women-soldiers love discipline. It has been just as severe as in the mems regiments. In fact. 1t has been the army's experience that women takes sildier's life more seriously than men and are more punctual and have a greater sense of fidelity than
