WILBUR N. MASON,
President Baker University
Wednesday night a great war con-
ference" was held in the Auditorium.
Speeches were made by the officers
and others for the purpose of bringing
up to a fever height. The
object was accomplished and it can be
said that in Topeka never
before has such large body of work
and women--been so fired
with the desire to accomplish the OBJ
ieet in view and perhaps then some"
In fact the pep was SO strong that
there were those who even believed
that the 100000 mark might be over
in Topeka SO as to tighten
ties in raising the balance of the $780,
900 necessary in order taht the gift of
100000 may be forthcoming from the
Foundation.
