REHABILITATED M£n MAKE GOOD SHOWING Vocational training of World war veterans lias proved the most serious mistake in the care of the disabled ly the government, aiecording to Gen. John F. O’Ryan. Many of the vet erans would have been better off If they—had* net—been trained, he de clared in an interview with a repre sentative' of the American Legion, upon his departure from Washington at the conclusion of a ten ‘months’ Investigation of the veterans’ bureau. The general said that this statement <lid not take into consideration any charges of negligence, extravagance or. mismanagement, but considered ftniy the system of rehabilitation used in caring for the men. “I am tir-mly of the opinion,” he said, “that there are a great manf— the numby may run into the thou sands—of men in vocational training who would he better off If the govern ment had ngver undertaken to re educate them.

IJttle attention was paid to getting fhe right men into the right course in 1920 and 1S)21. The whole thing was a travesty on the name of rehabilitation. Instead , of teaching men to strike out aiyl pncldle their awn canoes again, the tendency wlis to cultivate habitual pensioners.” “In 1922 when the federal board was merged, with the veterans’ bureau, tilings took a' fern for the better and tlie situation lias steadily improved. But the evil had been done. Instead of being taught to become independ ent and self-supporting, thousands of veterans had been schooled for two years in how to get a livelihood at public expense. It has been necessary to drop a good many men whoset- cases have'become impossible. . . I believe others will have to go. I can not see how the bureau can turn out men ns rehabilitated who obviously cannot make good.” Of tiie 70,(KK» men now receiving vocational /training, about 2.000 a month are leaving tin* Institutions as rehabilitated. Recent experience shows that nproxiniately ninety-live per cent of these men are making BO LIES RESIGNS AS NATIONAL ADJUTANT Lemuel Boiles, perhaps more closely associated , with 'the American Legion for a greater length of time than any ofher World war veteran, has resigned hfe position as national adjutant. Boiles was a delegate to the Baris conference at which the actual work of organization was completed. He had a part in drafting the uatlonat constitution of the organization and was named a member of the executive committee when a permanent organiza tion was formed at that caucus. Frapk-- lln D’Olier, as natldnal commander in 1919, nrttned Boiles to the position of national adjutant which he has Bl.nee held by appointment from every suc ceeding commander. He was,born in Minneapolis. Minn., in 1885, Just when the pioneers were resting after opening up tiie West. His grandfather built' the tlrst grist mill ever erected.in that state. As a youth lie tended furnaces, cows and horses during his boyhood* and by these earnings educated himself at McAllister academy in St. Paul. In spare times lie assisted in opening up Northern Pacific land grants for set tlement, as a member of and npprais- Tng'and surveying pnrtj' in tiie West ern Dakotas.

In 1917, when America entered tiie World war, Boiles was assistant adjutant general in that state, holding tiie rank of major. He was named as asslstant quurter- mnster with the Forty-first division, and was sent to France where lie was. assigned to Headquarters First Army corps as-assistant general In charge of supply transportation and evacuation for the Whole Corps. He held tiie rank "f lieutenant. colonel and served through the Champagne, tiie Marne, tiie Aisne-Marne, Toul and Meuse-Ar- gonne drives. For meritorious serv ices he received the rank of Chevalier of tiie Legion d’Honneur from France. Still boldine: n commission in the organized reserve, he is a lieutenant colonel commanding the Three Hundred and »Thlrty-fourth infantry of the Eighty-fourth division. His Legion service bus been Iqng and viseful. > i He was given a‘month's leave of absence, on Ids return to the" United States in order to arrange for tiie first annual convention <tT the Amer ican Legion which was held at Minne apolis in 1919. Following tills con vention he acceded to the post of na tional adjutant, which he lias since held. Jperhaps no one person in Legion circTbs inis a wider acquaintance. Mr. Boiles’ mail reached 1,000 letters a day, his duties have taken him into every- section of the country, and he Has made countless' friends in his breezy,- wholesome way. Mr. Boiles is ; resigning-to accept a position with a firm of New York pub lishers.

Moses, the representative of tiie law, brought Israel to the borders of Canaan. Joshua was the Inan chosen to lead the pCopli? into tiie place of rest. Tiie name, “Joshua”, has the same derivation as tiie name “Jesus*’. L' Joshua’s Catf (Josh. I-;!, 2). ^ Moses was dead, hut God’s work must go on. The work was continued by calling Joshua to take It up. Joshua, no doubt, was sorrowful over tiie loss of his master, hut there was now no time for mourning. II. God Renews His Promise of the Land to Israel (Josh. 1 :3, 4). ,Tliis. promise .had been given to Abraham and renewed to Isaac, Jacob ; and Moses. It is now renewed to Is- i rael when they are about to enter upon its possession. The borders of .tiie land were, “from the wilderness and tRls Lebanon even untefthe great river, tiie river Euphrates, all tiie land of flip Hittltes and untb tiie great sea toward file going down of the sun” (v. 4).

Their possession of this land was due entirely to them selves. God promised them that wher ever their feet, set upon tiie land, It was theirs. If they failed to secure possession, it was because they failed to claim it. III. God's Presence Promised to Jochua (Josh. 1 :5). Joshua was entering upon ^ perilous and^ difficult enterprise, hut the Lord i said, as He was with Moses so He would lie with him. Tiie difficulties be- Horry Mother!
