WOULD GIVE GIRLS TRAINING

Dusseldorf Professor Advocate* Compulsory Military Service for ' * Women. Berlin —Compulsory military service for German girls la advocated by Professor Witxel of Dusseldorf. An army of nurses should, in his opinion, follow each army of male combatants, not only to care for the wounded, but to attend to everything connected with food and clothing. Every healthy German girl, says the professor, should look on training for this object as a patriotic duty, and the knowledge will be useful in the home if it is not utilised on the battlefield.
