I American Library Association t Will Furnish Books on All I Subjects of Interest INFORMATION AT ANY WELFARE BUILDING All Branches of Work May Now Be Studied. All Trades, Business and Professional Courses The ont thing of tantamount, im portance In the mind of every soldier at present, the one thing that he feels la of interest and which he is willing and eager to discuss is when do we go? That is something to think about but it is a patent fact that we ran t all go at once and that it will be weeks and may be months before ail the men are merrily on their way. In the mean white bore is the chance to make the Job we go home to a better Job than ‘ the one we left and perhaps a chance to leave a Job that did never appeal to us for one that promises and in terests us more. The American Library Association has made a reading course available tor any man that is interested in bet tering himself, ft makes no difference what your line may be or who v ou may be or how long you will be here they have a book that will be of interest ;<o you and which will fit you better for the home job that vou are looking forward to. Several different texts are available on any of the following sub jects: ; Accounting, advertising, automobile work, banking, building, business, Bn glneering. Drafting, Farming. Journal ism, Machine Shop Work, Plumbing, railroading, seamanship, shipbuilding, surveying, taylorlng, teaching, tele graphy, telephany, toolmaking. factory management, etc Os course this is only n partial list and there, is a large number of courses I that may bo had for the asking. If none of the above named sub jects interest you or if you do not real ly know just what you want it would be worth your time to talk to the Ed ucational Secretary in any Y. M. C a hut or in the J. W. B. or K C huts land have them help you to select (.something that will interest you ond j which will be well worth your time | during the weeks when things are seemingly "In the air." ft there was ever a time when men ought tn keep cool and steady it Is n<vw. lIM-re is far more profit in prepar ing yourself to be better equipped when you get home than there is in "chewing the rag" over when you will get there a thing none of us know so ■ much about. I The civil service will appeal to many land If you know what branch of the .1 civil service you would like to enter Im book may bo had that will help you to pass the examination for a posi tion in the service. Many men will be anxious to study up on some phase of farm work and •now is your chance. You have the time and the book; this chance may not be yours after you once get home. A student will find many, chances to advance his standing when he resumes this studies if he will apply himself to a reading course while he him the chance here. Let the man at. the desk help you. Any secretary in any hut will be glad to talk it over with you and help you find the way EX-SOLDIERS AND SAILORS SEEKINS EMPLOYMENT HERE Within the past tvo days *e!ght or ten men. recently demobilized soldiers or sail ors, have called on Mr. Ross Copeland, examiner In charge of the local station of she United States Employpient Service, | relative lo securing suitable employment In Augusta.

The firs*, period was a see-saw af fair for both sides with the Machine Gunners battling tho Morehouse eleven and also the officials, who tried in every way to prevent the Machine Gunners from scoring and aid the col legians in scoringj but owing to the superiority of the Hancock teum, the collegians did not score. Shortly after tho second quarter began, the officials were in evidence again and to such an extent that Morehouse was allow ed to score, but the goal was missed. The remainder of tim fire*, half w ts devoted to straight football on both sides with the ball in Hancock’s pos session the majority of the time. The half ending with Machine Gunners in possession of the ball on Atlantans five j’ard line. The second half saw a new lineup for the Machine Gunners, as some of the backfield men were sent to the lines which strengthened it materially, ;•;» Morehou je was soon a w Thomas and Woodland on the defense and soon resorted to open football, which only paved the way to a victory f<»r ('amp Hancock, as a forward pass by them on Hancock’s twenty yard line was Intercepted by Reed, who ran 70 yards before he was downed. This turned the tide for the Machine Gunners and Williams shirted the end for the remaining 30 yards ami scored the first touchdown after which Blu etit kicked goal. Score, Hancock, 7; Morehouse, 6. Morehouse received the kickoff, but was downed on her own thirty-yard line and was forced to kick. The ball being returned by Duplessis to the Atlantan’s 40 yard line, and a series of line plunges by Alexander and Jones upt the ball-in striking distance and on the next play, Bluoitt went through tackle for the second touchdown, but failed to kick the goal. The remain der of the period found the hall in Machine Gunners possession and when the whistle Vl ew Uie ball was only 5 yards from the collegians goal. For Hancock, the whole team played like a machine, the individual stars being Reed, Williams, Alexander and Dlueftt, while Carlyle was tho Individual star for Morehouse. The lineup of the officers team was as follows. Ferguson Points Tjeft End. Hatchett Thomas I>ft Tackle. Lewis Nash Left Guard Woodland Williams Center.
