 The speaker declared, however, that men must first get right with God the Head of Society before they could hope to set the world right pointing out that only in the light of the Cross could men hope to under. stand and deal with evil and bring in the reign of righteousness, peace, and happiness.

Of the guild and for many years organ

largely attended, and between forty and
fifty members Of the American Guild OF
Organists occupied seats on the middle
aisle.
The musical service was unusually
elaborate, no less than four well known
organists contributing solos. Two Of
these organists came from long dis

lasting place in church music. and If
his improvisations could have been

FOR MILITARY CAMP

Wood Urges Defences.

Ithaca, y. V, Jan. IA gift Of sl0,-
600 TO Cornell University, 10 provide a
summer military camp for the Cornell
cadets, was announced at the annual
Founders Day exercises to-day by
President Schurman. Willard d.
Straight, OF New York City, an alum
nus and trustee OF the university, IL
the donor, and President Schurmsn
characterized the gift as the first given
10 a university for military purposes.
The money is 20 be used 70 give sum
mer camp training to 600 cadets, and
the camp is to be held just before tie
university opens In the fall.
Founders Day this year was notable
because Il was given over TO specific
and exclusive recognition Of the mill
tarv department Of the university. Ma
jor General Leonard Wood, u. 5. A,
was guest of honor, and practically the
entire cadet corps paraded in his honor
prior to his address.
Speaking to several thousand stu
dents. General Wood made an eloquent
plea for military training in American
schools and colleges.
az know OF no country he said,
"where military education is more need
ed In school and college than the
United States. There is no subject con
cerning which our people, taken as a
whole, are more ignorant than that Of
our military history and policy, or lack
OF policy. We are generally told Of our
successes in war and told little or notni-
ing of the failures that have leopard
ized an extension Of the Republic and
have rendered the conduct Of her wars
hideously costly in life and treasure,
prolonged them longer than need be
and prevented, in some instances, tne
attainment of the desired end

In the meantime. according to Mrs.

Whitson pleaded that his altered
financial condition made Il difficult TO
