Training Schools for Automotive Me chanics to be Opened at Four Differ ent Camps Thorough Instruction by Experts. Information has jut been received by the recruiting officer in this city that schools are to be opened by the Motor Transport Corps, l 8. Army, at Camp Holubird, Baltimore, Mil., Camp Jesup, Atlant-. Ga., Camp Boyd, Kl Paso,' Tex as, and Camp Xormoylc, ISaii Antonio, Texas, for the intensive training of men who qualify for enliMtilient in the Army. Many of these men have already bad considerable experience in some trade or occupation but owing to the necessity of remaining at one job, at one machine, or iii one place, lmve Ifeen prevented from acquiring a full training in the various processes and operations that go to make up a trade or occupation. Men who have had previous experience in the different branches of the automo tive industry are highly desired for these courses, but thin dneM not mean that men without exierieiice in tlicse lines are not acceptable. Certain courses have lieen Outlined particularly for men having had eXerieiice. For men who- have had no pxpericiice iu any of the automobile lines, snflic.ient educational qualifications .are necessary to allow them to go mi with the work with men who have& had previous occupational exerieuce. ,' ' : These roursen outlined by practical ex- lerts, are oen to any man who can show he has abifity and ambition to work and study. The privilege of attending these schools will only lie accorded men whose records bear closest investigation. ' The purpose of the course outhnexl is to produce for the Army a highly nkilled bcwly of men, that uHin.liii return to civil life,- the soldier can rightly claim to 1 a nuichiniat, an automobile reair man or an ignition expert. Upon completing the course of -study the soldier is awarded a certificate ''of graduation. His' standing upon gradua tion from the find course will qualify him to undergo further training along the same line. " - ' ,By this method of progressive study the soldier can finally graduate as black smith or general automobile expert: to have acquired this title he will have taken the following courses: ' (1) Motor As semblers. (2) Ignition and "Trouble Shotters." (3) Axle, Transmission and Chassis.. . He will have attended all ' lectures bearing on these subjeets, and over a period of months' will have devoted him self entirely to acquiring a trade under civilian experts, that would take years of effort in eivil life. ,--.-.;. - l ' 5 - Details as to subjects that will be cov ered at the schools and rates of pay while in school can be obtained from tha Local Reeruituig Station.

It ought further to be observed re specting truths In general, that those are always most valuable which art most historical, that Is. which tell us most about tbe past and future states of the object to which they belong. In a tree, for Instance; It Is more Im portant to gPre the appearance of en ergy and elasticity In the limbs which is Indicative of growth and life, than any particular character of leaf or tex ture of bough. It Is' more Important that we should feel that the upper most sprays are creeping higher and higher Into the sky, and be Impressed with the current of. life and motion which Is animating every fibre than that we should know the exact pitch of relief with which those fibres are thrown out against the sky. For the irst truths" ieff us tales almut the tree, about what It has been, and will be, while the last are characteristic of It only In Its present state, and are In no way talkative about them selves. Talkative facts are always more Interesting and more Important than silent ones. So, again, the lines Inrjagwhich niark Its stratlflca tlon, and nowTTTias been Vashed and rounded by water, or twisted and drawn out in fire, are more Important, because they tell more than the stains .of tbe lichens, which change year by year, and the accidental Assure of front or decomposition: not but that both of these are historical, but his torical In a less distinct manner, and for shorter periods.
