Under the sponsorship of the Educational Policies Commission which
is comprised of the National Education Association, th e American Legion , the United States Office of Education , and the National Congress of
Parents and Teachers, the American
Schools are this week observing the
twenty-second annual American Education Week.
For this year the Commission
chose as its general theme "Education

around the articles of our democratic
faith. According to these the American people should fashion an education designed to give to the rising
generations the loyalties, the knowledge, the discipline of free men and
incorporate into the behavior of youth
the great patterns of democratic living and faith.
In accordance with this observance
an assembly program was presented
in the B. S. T. College auditorium on

WRECKERS' FATE

What is the American Way of Life?

Member

PUsockded GoUeeSiaiePress

It is a free way,
allowing one tolive according to
his own conscience.
It is a peaceful way ,
settling differences by elections
and courts.
It is a friendly way,
j udging success by happiness,
usefulness and growth.
It is a cooperative way,
emphasizing service to 'the common good.
It is a democratic way,
based on human brotherhood and
the Golden Rule.

Everybody likes a variety, so this
-columnist is doing his best to satisfy
that desire. This week, LIFE WITH
UNCLE will be concerned with not
only B. S. T. C. men in service, but
all the fighting men of our great
country.
It is through the courtesy and cooperation of "Wings," the publication
oi Chanute 'Field, Illinois, and "The
Camp Wolters Longhorn," publication
of Camp Wolters, Texas, that the folinformation is available.

KEEP 'EM RO LLING

§

j

(A Tribute, to the Q. M.)
Oh,* the people sing the praises of

| The boys who fight

on high,
And they shout, "Let's keep 'em flying."
But they little stop to figure
That the boys upon the ground
Who, because they "Keep 'em rolling."
Really make the wheels go round.
And the poets sing the plaudits
Of the boys who man the guns,
And they love to march in cadence to
The Infantry 's loud drums.

and resourcefulness.
But he goes nameless in most dispatches citing heroes, because careful, precise repair work has come to

He would want it that way, for

Ireland's first American baseball
game since the 1917 A. E. F. was
staged recently by two Army teams.
Use V-Mail
If you have friends on foreign
shores—use V-mail; if you are on
foreign shores—use V-mail. This is
the quickest means of communication
between families on this side and
troops abroad . It takes precedence
over air mail and any other type of
delivery.•
V-mail is the surest. The original
message isn't destroyed until its photographic reproduction is acknowledged in the field.
Finally, V-mail is patriotic—because 150,000 V-mail letters occupy
.one small sack as against 37 heavy
sacks using valuable space in transport planes,
For V-mail stationery, go to your
local postofflce. Limited amounts are
•given free.

But when feet that march grow t ir ed,
And there 's still a piece to go,
It's the boys who "Keep 'em rolling"
Who don't let the battle slow.
And when heavy guns are barking,
And the cannons need supply,
There are always trucks a-moving
Whether warm, cold, wet or dry.
For an army may be famous for
Its airmen, guns and fighters ,
For its cannoneers and doctors,
For its engineers and writers.

But for always moving onward,
Sometimes slower, sometimes faster,
It's the boys who "Keep 'em rolling"
From the Army's QUARTERMASTER.

Change of Times
Conversation used to be
Of minor things and trivalties;
But now the time has come to pass
It's talk of war and rationing gas.
