GERMANY HAS DONE
MUCH FOR THE
AMERICANS
People of That Nation Prom
inent in United States
Wars Says Bek

The convocation speaker at 1880
O'Clock this morning in the university
gymnasium was Prof. William 6,
Bek of h German department.. He
spoke on THE German Soldier in
American Wars" He gave a YER in
teresting talk on this subject. showing
that the Germans have had their
share in building up this great coun-
try. Prof. Bek said that a large per-
centage of u population Is made up
of people with German blood in their
veins. He claims that the German
people helped discover this country
and We're among the first people who
settled here.
n Germans are very patriotic and
were among the first to enlist when
our country needed troops. At the
outbreak of the revolution there were
nearly u quarter of a million Germans
in this country. One-half of these
lived In Pennsylvania. The Germans
were quick to learn the art Of Indian
warfare. AS there were very few
tories among them they fought for
the most part against the English.
George W~ashington's body guard was
made up of Germans because they
We're known to be IN the side of the
Americans and could be trusted.
During the revolution three of the
most important army offices were
by Germans. Prof. Bek says that the
Hessian troops could not be blamed
for fighting with The English troops,
because they were hired troops and
had nothing to say about 1t. When
a Hessian was discharged he usually
Joined the American forces. The
descendants of these Hessians have
since proved their patriotism for this
nation. 1t was NJ only in the revolu-
ton that the Germans fought for this
nation, but also in the war Of 1912;
the civil war; the Mexican war: the
Spanish-American war and also in
the various Indian wars. The Ger
mans were always very liberal with
contributing money for the support
OF the American army.
Prof. Bek concluded By saying that
we should feel proud Of the Germans
because of what they had done for
this country.
Prot. v. p. squires presided at con-
vocation and he suggested that the
audience sing 1.-THE Watch on the
Rhine before departing.
Another feature of the program
was the cello solo given by Max
Tracy. .
