in Harvard Illustrated:
1.-The wa in Europe has taught us many things and w e should be
indeed dull if we learned nothing from such a catacysm in the history

greatest need of a country with a small standing army is a body of
trained officers. With them armies can be recruited and drilled in a
comparatively short time. Without them the creation of a efficient
defensive force is almost impossible
Toward the creation of a class from which at least partially trained
officers may be drawn in cas a major val compelled us to draw upon
an resources, President Lowell recommends the government sum
mer camps for college undergraduates.
In closing, President Lowell permits himself the following SAN
culinary miitarist tterance Sensible men insure their homes and a
sensible people will prepare to defend their sol"-Chcago Tribune.
