Madison, Wis. (U.PJ A block
from the University of Wiscon
sin campus .with its scores of
large buildings, is an old gray
brick structure once used as a
Madison grammar school. Today
that buildings houses, if not
the largest, at least the most
widespread school in the world
the United States Army Insti
tute. The institute under the direc
tion of Lt. Col. William R.
Young, has been in operation
since mid-April and recently
turned out its first "graduate,"
Pvt. Joseph A. Benia, stationed
at Chicago. Benia has completed
a preparatory course in radio
telephony and telegraphy.
More than 1.000 soldiers from
all branches of the army have
enrolled in the correspondence
courses originating here. Any
where up to 70.000 are expected
It's NOT JllSt
a Matter
of DOLLARS
a.
LD ABE LINCOLN had
' one main idea. He wanted
to save the Union. But that
didn't cause him to neglect hit
fellow men. Similarly, Standard
has no thought except to help
win the war. Day and night we
concentrate on producing a
prime munition. Yet another
matter has Standard's attention.
We're proud to say that, al
though we are in the front line
production trenches, around 12
per cent of our personnel has
stepped over into the fighting
trenches. Already we have 2,056
stars in our service flag. We in
tend to see that these men get
the best break we can give them.
Not only has each one re
ceived allowances generally
running from 15 to 35 per cent
of a year's pay, but all vacation
time for which they were eli
gible has been translated into
dollars. And why not? Every
man of them wants to be a good
soldier and so do we.
In the past, Standard has
tried to assure the future of
its employees by providing fair
pay, job-security, retirement
benefits. Now the lads in the
fighting sen ices are assuring
our future and yours . , . and
yours . . . and yours. It's turn
about. We want it also to be
fair play.

service, which costs the student
$2 per course. Most of the 60
odd courses are of the vocational
type and none is for college
credit. If the soldier wants col
lege work, the army will pay
half the bill at any of the 70
college extensions on its ac
credited list.

done by faculty members, but
