Military Training in the Schools

The Republican has lately printed oommuni- cations from correspondents, called out by a recent published interview with Adutant General Harris on the subject of military training in the schools Manys similar suggestions have come from different parts of the country regarding the introduction of military exercises in schools and colleges
 or the numerous plans which have been de- Scrlbed Tn print one is scheme for establishing summer camps for college students This idea has q strong supporter in Dr. Hbben president of Princeton University. Concerning the problem Inf getting trained without he establishment of anything resembling military caste" Dr. Hibben says:

It is the plan of sum hel camps Tor college men. A few have gone each year into these camps. ] wish there might be more These camps afford opportunities for inten- slVe instruction in military affairs The course lasts only live weeks but in that time quick -witted young men of trained minds are capable of progress at remarkable in tie theory and ar+ Inf n,ili tary procedure.
 It is stated that young of ordinary bright ness after summer courses in these canns would be capable if the need arose of ac.inc .S first and second leutenants Those showing un usual aptitude would be qualified to act as captains In case of war, our problem would he the whipping into shape of thousands of raw recruifs Under such circumstances. the services of collese trained officers would be invaluable to the govern ment.
 A large number of college presidents agree with Dr- Hibben that the camp plan is an ex ceiient one There is apparent objection f, if Inc men so trained would not be asked to perform any further military duty. They would not be in any sense reservists'' The operation of the s,,,, iher-camp system simply means that young men of a patriotic turn of mind could by sacrifcinc alto tc'her ten weeks of their summer vacations fiji themselves for being very useful 10 the government H.

Lerwick, The
Metropolis Of
The Shetlands

There is something circumspect and
quiet about those summer nights
when the fisherman come in and all
the Northern nations meet in it's mar
row, twisting street. When the shops
flare wide, especially the refreshment
shops. The fagstones echo to the
beating feet of the sailors walking
in couples, or else as many abreast
as the walls of opposing houses will
admit, enjoying themselves, but with
little talk and less laughter. Among
these are a few blue eyed Shetland
girls, Scotch lassies, and perhaps a
few from Ireland. The rest of them,
however, are working until midnight
in the great curing-sheds. The fish
erman, looking to the east, can see
the sheds glowing crimson from the
great torchlights, the figures of the
girls black against the glow, as they
bend over their work of cutting the
herring. Youth may call them out
there in the Lerwick streets, but
duty's note is higher. They must earn
their bounty money; they must make
their eight shillings a day to carry
them through the nine winter months
when there is no money to be won
except by little knitting. So while
youth and love call outside, they work
IN their oilskin blood-stained aprons,
admid the screening of the gulls feed
ing beneath the windows on the offal
thrown them.
A scene less populous, but not less
striking, is old Christmas Eve, the
4th of January, when the children and
young men OF Lerwick go a-guizing.
The children disguise themselves in
strange dresses, parade the streets,
and envade the houses and shops beg
ging for offerings. At one o'clock the
young men, coarsely clad, drag blaz-
ing tar-barrels through the town,
blowing horns and cheering. At six
in the morning they but off their
grimy clothes, and, dressed in fan
tastic costumes, go in pairs or in
groups to wish their friends the COM
pliments of the season.-Maude Rad
ford Warren in HARPER'S MAGA-
ZINE for June.

Palisade Defeats
New York HilltopS

The Palisades played a rather one
sided, yet very interesting game with
a nifty little team from New YORK,
the "Hilltops," said to be the cham
pion Dewitt Clinton High School club,
but without its official stamp. The
visitors were held hitless till the
eighth inning, when Paul Brady let
a rather warm drive to short get
past him, the ball taking nasty
bound, yet not impossible to field.
Greer was at his best all the time,
but there was another similar ball
that went through short in the ninth,
after Walhagan had gotten his base
on balls, Halla flew out to catcher,
and Tanning made hit to center,
stealing second, Wolhagan reaching
third on the play. Then Elliott
walked, when Power hit puzzler
to Greer, which the latter spilled, and
two came in on the play. Martin hit
another past short which Brady could
not handle, and Elliott scored, being
three and all for the visitors for the
whole game. The next two men went
out in order. The game was inter
esting, because the Hilltops were
dangerous at every stage of the game,
and were imbued with the baseball
spirit all the way through. They
were not too be fooled with. The
feature of Palisades playing was by
Ropes, who handled everything well
at second, besides getting four clean
hits, one double, in five times up.
Logan, Cristoff, Greer and Goemann
each had two hits. Cristoff's catching
was the best ever seen in Palisade
on the home team. The score:

Notes of the Game
Funny thing about these New York
teams, and they are all alike. They
always bring along lot of camp fol
lowing rooters, who sit on the side
lines and make the most interesting
speeches for the benefit of the crowd.
Mostly they are wits, and some of
their enlightening sayings would
make "Puck" or Judge" offer high
premium for their brightness. The
Hilltops were particularly felcitous
in sepecting their champions. One
would have thought they brought
along the end men from a minstrel
show, so cute, cutting and brilliant
were their speeches. New York
seems to inspire wit, of the kind that
suggests, Don't you wish you lived
in New York, so you could learn to
play ball ?"
The Hilltops, for all that are not a
team to be dispised, and will beat the
average ball club. Their infield, and
also their outfield, were very well
balanced, and the whole team played
bang up ball. While the Palisades
defeated them, they had to be on the
job every minute to do it.
That the Englewood Cliffs boy,
Ropes, is no slugger. He seems able
to hit almost anything, and slammed
the ball out safely four times IN
five times up. His fielding was 1000
per cent, as he had not one chance
at second.
The boys missed George Beck
