SOLDIERS MORE SERIOUS Prof. John Erskine of Army Educational Commission Back from France and Tells About Our Boys in Khaki--Thinking of Readjustment in United States After World War. After peace is declared the work of demobilization will be slow, according to John Erskine, professor of English at Columbia University, and now chairman of the Army Educational Commission, who is here from France.

"Demobilization will take at least year and a half after peace is Dr. Erskine said Monday at Y. M. C. A.

headquarters, 347 Madison avenue. "We shall not begin to bring our armies home till peace is declared, and they will be brought back much more slowly than they are being sent. Also as long as there are disturbances in Austria or anywhere we must sit there and watch. Uncle Sam intends that the men who wait and watch shall put in the time preparing to take their places in civil life over here. "The soldiers are thinking more and more soberly.

They hear of the changes and readjustments in the United States they get real blue wondering what their part will be when they get home. "This shows in the books that soldiers write for to the mail order and sales branch of the Y. M. C. A.
