learn to rend and write, and that he
must sign his own name to his dis-
charge papers. No\vf the Colored De-
velopment battalion is made up chiefly
o* illiterates, and only a few of them
know tlte alphabet. Anyway, the'ne-
groes saw no hope for future freedom
unless they immediately set to work
“educatin’ themselves,” us some of
them expressed it.
The report reached an officer of the
Army Y. M. C. A. and he immediately
saw an opportunity of pushing Itis edu-
cational work in these hitherto un-
touched ranks. The result has been
that tn the battalion more Ilian one
hundred negroes have learned to read
and write and now one of the fads irt
the organization is for the men to carry
spelling books and Fenders around
with them. Every time an officer isn’t
looking many of tin: men can he found
at their favorite pastime of “educatin’
themselves.”
In addition to this .100 others who
at some time or other 'had learned to
read and write, hut wjiq through negli-
gence had forgotten how, were able
to “brush up” mid refresh their memo-
fermentations and poisons, thus
cleansing, sweetening and freshening
