Bingham Springs Dining Room heard so much In tho last two years, Is being demobilized. The majority of its 3000 members are returning to domes tie pursuits after more tlian two years of nillltury service. A smull percent age will remain In government service as Instructors of military education for women In schools which are being set up for them In Warsaw, Cracow und Posen. "Our cusuallles have been little more than one hundred. We last forty killed at Lemberg and about fifty at Vllna. Now that peucc prospects ure so bright for Poland our task is done, and most of my soldiers will go to their homes those that have them, to bo good wives and mothers, as women should. It will Interest Americans to know that two members of our battalion married members of General Haller's legion of Polish-Americans, who came over to help in the critical days of the , war and have returned with them to " I make their homes in the United Slates. 1 1 have, never been to America, but I '.. know all about It because I am a great reader, and I know that they' will find great consolation in a new, prosperous country that has not been swept by armies. One Company Itoniain. Fifty of our women soldieis have married while In the service. If they married soldiers they continued In the battalion in preference to returning home, as long as their husbunds were also in the army. All those who have married have returned to domestic pursujts. In fact, when our demobili zation scheme is completed all of the 3U00 members of the battalion will have left the service, except one com pany, which is still doing duty at VII- nu. Formed originally for the defense of Lemberg against the Ukrainians, It was not our intention to serve so long under arms, but the circumstances of war made It Imperative. It has been a pleasure thus to serve our country. and many of us are loth to lay aside our uniforms. The company (hat 1 have on guard duty at the barracks here is the battalion's pride. It does not want to leave the service, Many of its members will go into the train ing schools. Our women soldiers love discipline. It has been Just as severe as In the men's regiments. In fact, It has been the army's experience that women take a soldier's life more seriously than men and are more punctual and have a greater sense of fidelity than men. (Set Women's Schools. That Is one of the reasons for the training-school idea. The government has been so Impressed with the value of women In war that it has been de cided to establish these schools for the military training of women. They will be set up in Warsaw, Cracow and Po sen. Already we have received 300 appli cations for admission to the schools from the batlalion members living in Leiuberb, where the legion was form ed. More are coming in daily from other parts of Poland. It shows the : splendid spirit of the Polish women, who, more than the men, are respon sible for keeping alight the fire of patriotism in the hearts of the Polish youth through all our years of oppres sion under foreign governments. These schools vWll.jrovide the nec essary military training for women as officers In the sanitary corps, the tele graph, telephone and educational branches of the army. In other woids an effort will be made to fill all these branches of the service with women, so that in the event of war more men can be spared for the fighting line. It Is Poland's answer to the crying need of preparedness. Right here I should correct the poi ular impression that all of our women-soldiers were in the actual firing line in tho last two years of Poland's struggles. As u. matter of fact, only a small proportion of the women were placed in tho line. Organized original ly for the defense of Lemberg, the le gion grew fast. lis members took their place In the line nt Lemberg and later at Vllna. which accounts for the comparatively large number of casual tics we had at those two places, lkvrmic Women Jtcm'rvisiM.
