Pershing Explains Need of Instruction in Preparedness to Meet Possible Emergency. By the Associated Press. LEAVENWORTH, Kans, August 27.—“Defense day is not a mobiliza- tion, it is simply part of the in- struction officers and men must have to understand what a mobilization would be,” sald Gen.

Pershing left last night for Lincoln, Neb. August 31 he will go to Findlay, Ohio, to attend the re- union of the 387th Division. EDUCATIONAL. Frivate Towoms 15 mathematics, sciences; languages.
