Conducts Classes While Men Wait For Discharge Atlanta, Ga, Dec.—While the soldiers and sailors in the various Camps of the country are waiting to be demobilized, they .will be given an •opportunity to take advantage of en larged educational programs which will be operated in all camps by the Y. M. C. A. In the Southeastern department, which includes the states of Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Louisi ana, Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina, Prof. A. M. Souby, de partment educational director, has ad vised a plan better prepare the sol diers for civilian life when they are ■discharged front the service. Under Mr. Souliy’s new program of •educational activity, the number of classes in various subjects will be in creased and speakers will be exchang ed by the different camps, all of them “Deep Stuff” Is What Doughboys Read Over There Paris. —(By Mail.) —Not "best sellers” but serious works is the liter ary refreshment demanded by the American soldiers in France, now that the war is over, and our boys are waiting to get back home. The soldier is a serious-miuded person, with decided intellectual views, all reports to the contrary. He wants to make his way in the w'orld. The American Y. M. C. A. in France came to this conclusion when a group of 300 doughboys, when asked what they would like as light read ing matter, spoke up with one voice, and demanded books on applied Math ematics. They were bo much in earnest about it that the Y. M. C. A. decided to start its first class in practical arts in France. B. H. Morri son, formerly an instructor in the States Teachers’ College of Greeley, Colorado, w r as sent for to take charge of the class. The first real impediment to intellectual research among the buck pri vates presented itself when it was discovered that there wasn’t so far as any cdtald find out, an American book on applied mathematics in all France. There w r ere the French ones, of course, but none should be ex pected to study French and Mathematics simultaneously. It really isn’t well to mix drinks from the fort of learning in that way. Mr. Morri son, how’ever, was undaunted by the absence of textbooks and volun teered to teach without them until the ones which were wired for im mediately could arrive from the good old U. S. A. A Seventy-Year Old Couple Mr. and Mrs. T. B. Carpenter, Harrisburg, Pa. suffered from kid ney trouble. He savs : “My wife and I suffered from kikney trouble and had rheumatic pains through the body. The first few doses of Foley Kidney Pills relieved us and five bettk s entirely cured us.

At lie! same time, the men have more lei sure and more chances to buy things than they had b tore. One of the mo'st important things the Y. M.

It is planning to fight alcohol with sugar. According to medical ex perts, this is the best kind of ammu nition to use in a battle against the more or less well-known Demon. Heavy drinkers don’t cafe for sugar and heavy consumers of sw’eets usu ally pass up the “booze.” So by ply ing the soldiers with candy, chocolate, chewing gum and cookies, the Y. M C. A. expects to reduce the consump tion of alcohol very materially. discussing questions of imi>ortance to the men attending the classes. Special historical topics will be se lected for discussion, and speakers \yill be borrowed from schools and colleges to speak in the camps and cantonments. It is also planned by the Y. M. C. A. to keep in touch with 4he men even after they leave the service. This will be done by correspondence, and will be undertaken 4n the cases of illiterates and naturalized Americans unfamiliar with the English language. The city Y. M. C. A. secretaries will aid in this work. Since the signing of the armistice the duties of the camp soldiers are not so stvenuous, and they naturally have more time at their disposal. This time will be used to advantage by at tending the new Y. M. C. A. classes. Used 40 Years CARDUI The Wonwrs Tonic Sold Everywhere S. l_.

My appetite poor. I was in pretty bad shape and began to look around for a tonic. I felt like part of the trouble was lack of iron in my blood. I was so easily worried, so easily upset. I heard of Ziron and knew it would help me. I began to take it and the im provement was great.
