MAKING MEN JUmj of th advocate ot univer sal military training haro coupled with that aafgosUoB an aarnest plea that army training campt ahould af ford every young man put through them the mean of obtaining a good education and learning a seLf-eup-porting trade. If such a plan were carried out, practically every male citizen of the country would be made to become a useful unH In oclety. The Idea is being adopted, in principal only, to a small extent in the new national army cantonments. For example, In each of these can tonments schools for teaching both English and French are being con ducted. . The classes are over crowded. There's another Incidental by product of military training that 'Is wholly good. There Is deplorable waste in warfare,' and waste In the mere preparation of armies. But there is much to set against the waste. What ever we may spend In ways that may appear at the time unproductive, let ns not forget that In the process we are making Intel ligent, patriotic unified Americans of a great mass of people who were formerly a dull, dead weight in our national life. And these Immigrants are not the only gainers. 'All our soldiers and ' sailors are learning Invaluable les sons of discipline, loyalty and de mocracy. The millionaire's son is getting as much benefit out of K as the man whom in the past we have called a "wop." A Very Few People Are Not Using Number 18 Coftee They Have Not Tried It. Don't Wait.
