The Military Hospitals and Con-

Sir James Lougheed...at-its lead, has -
already given a great deal of consider..
ation to re-edircation for ineri who
need it, and has taken stem to organ-
ize the training required ' in many
parts of the country. Th complete
tahlishment of the system May be ex-
pected very soon; for the Governinent,
by Order -in -,Council, has lust'adopted
a report of the Military Hospitals
Commission, of which we are enabled
to give this summery :-

the Commission. aims at benefitingnot
only disabled members of the Cana-
dian Expeditionary -Force but also die-
abled Reservists of the British and Al-
lied armies who were bona fide resi-
dente of Canada when the war broke
• The Commission his ,received the
assurance, it tells us, of bhe active
co -
'operation of the Provinces and vari-
ous Municipalities in carrying out
such a, policy. Technical Schools,
Agricultural Colleges and Other public
institutions have agreed to receive
disabled men for training and many
offers have gee been reeved from,
private conimercial establishments to
provide training and subsequent em-
ployment when the men have become
proficient. •
. The period of training for a new vo-
cation Will vary according to the pre-
VjOUS education.. and industrial his-
tory of each individual. The cost of
tuition will vary in consequence, and
also owing to the fact .that in many
cases' the tuition will be free . or the
fees nominal: (The -training. will be
free to the men in all cases. If there
is any charge, it will be paid by the

TILE RE -BIRTH OF RUSSIA.
• By Chas. M. Biee, Denver, Colo. .
Nothing that has taken place dur-
ing this deyastating war is so grandly
significant.; as the almost-'-miracalous
manner in which • the great Russian'
Empire. has recuperated after its first
defeat- at the hand a of the Central
poVvers. . • '
Germany, and not Without reason in
the ordinary course.: of events, had
proudly proclaimed that the huge
over -grown bear of. the North . had
been rendered helpless and harmless
by. her Krupp guns and bayonets. '
To one unfamiliar with the real.
Russian spirit, this prediction would
be but the announcement of a fore-
gone conclusion, fpr it was based upon
the admitted fact of Ruseies unpre-
paredness at tha. beg -inning of . the
war, and her apparent inability to as-
seinble the necessary machinery with
which to manufacture arms and am-
munition to supply- her vest numeri-
cal force. .•
But, despite all ' adverse circum-
stancbs, and while 'Much of her strate-
gical territory was in the hands. of
the enemy,. Russia has Surprised the
world, not only ih "coming back," bet
in the superior contage and. valor of
her soldiery, and is now sweeping the
foe before her as _chaff in the wind.
There must be some adequate cause
for this wonderful rthabilitation, that
does not show itself on the surface.
We must go deeper down into Russian
life to find the reasonfor this new life
and spirit that has Challenged the
adthiration of the • world. .
When tke war began, Rimini, -was
