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

'.. 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,

Under the now training in the

endangered. Women with one or more
children under the age of seven may
be exempted from military duty.
The schools will take the best-edu

includes all classes. Thus we have

ises in the best families of Poland
already enlisted in the new training
scheme. The age limit is thirty-five
