LARGEST ATTENDANCE IN HIS.
TORY OF THE oBERLiN BuSI-
NESS COLLEGE

The Oberlin Business College Is
having the most prosperous year in
it's history, the attendance of full
course students exceeding that of any
former year. This school differs from
nearly all other business colleges in
that it enrolls no children. Its stu
dents are all mature young men and
women, high school graduates, district
school teachers and others of good
preparation. This enables the school
to offer a higher grade of work and
accounts for the great reputation it
has gained for thorough work. 1t Is
not surprising that those who want
an advanced course of training are
going to Oberlin in larger numbers
than ever before.

intends to release twenty of these
animals early next spring and place
them with the wild herd. Twenty
bulls will also be given away during
the present season to such municipal
or state parks, one or two to each, as
will satisfy the department that they
are willing to pay for the capture,

A Need Of the Times, Declares
Secretary Daniels.
WARSHIP USED IN PRACTICE

ESperinen nts at Pensacola Will include
Flying From and AIighting on the
Battleship issssippi-outside Ex-
ports to Help Map Out System OF
Training.
Orders have been issued for the ex-
ecution of plans which will give to the
navy department a comprehensive
scheme for development in aviation.
Congress will be asked TO make an ap-
preparation to put the plans into eff
feet. They will provide the American
navy with an aerial corps which will
rank with the best in the world.
Henceforth, according to announce
ment, the navy's aviators and all navy
air craft and appliances will be sta
toned at Pensacola, Fla, which has
been selected as the best place for a
permanent naval aeronautical station.
The battleship Mississippi has been or
dered to Pensacola and will be utilized
by the hiers in experimental work.
The experiments will include flying
from and alighting on the battleship.
Chambers Remains In Charge.
Captain w. l. Chambers, retired. will
continue in charge of aviation work.
Captain Mark L. Bristol has been as
signed to the duty of the study and
development of the art of aerial war
fare for the navy. Lieutenant Com
mander Fl. G. Muslin. a qualified avi-
ator, has been assigned to special aero
nautical duty on board the Mississippi.
The announcement from the navy de-
partment says that the flying school at
Pensacola will produce trained person
mel and evolve a complete system of
training A scheme Of experiments
and tests will be developed and out
side experts will be brought into close
touch with the navy.
Following is the announcement in
part made by Secretary Daniels:
Value Not Fully Recognized.
The secretary of the navy has decided
| that the science OF aerial navigation hai
| reached that point where air craft mus
| form large part of our naval force 10,
| offensive and defensive operations. Near
| ly all countries having navy are sivint
attention to this subject. This countr,
has not fully recognized the value OF aero
-nautics in preparation for war, but 1t Il
| believed that we should take our prope
! place. This is the policy that has beer
| adopted.
| Captain w. I. Chambers, U. s. N, re
| tired, In charge of aviation In the navy
| is recognized as one of the leading mel
in this science in the world. Lieutenan
John II. Towers, u. s. NJ. an aviator o
| recognized ability, has had charge of thu
| aviation camp at Annapolis under Captain
| Chambers. He has contributed largely t,
| the development of naval aviation b.
| practical work in experimentation and il
| training personnel for flying. Several 9th
| er officers and a detachment of men ar,
| working with Lieutenant Towers. Th
| navy has other qualified aviators ant
some students of aviation to assist in fus
