WHAT ARE you GOING TO DO,

For the greater part Of the winter
term the Foundation School has had
more students than any other de-
partment. Here of late we have
dropped behind. II is a lamented
fact that every spring many Of our
students leave school and do not fin
lsh the spring work.
Why leave? Do your parents need
you? You need an education too.
Berea offers il 10 you If you are
willing tO sacrifice a little 10 get IL.
The boy who does not finish terms
work after he starts il unless he has
a mighty good reason for stopping
is certainly n gutter" We do not
believe that Foundation School stu
dents are cutters. Are you think
ing about leaving SCHOOL, Stop and
think again. Stop nowl DO you
want to finish what you have be-
gun? Are you interested in the
things that are best for your well
fare? Then listen. Stick il out
finish your course. Fight IL out on
this plan IL il takes all summer"
Don't be a "quitter," earn your di-
ploma and be ready 10 be promoted
next year when you return.
Suppose you do not have enough
money. Borrow il 10 finish the year.
Then earn enough through the sum-
mer TO return by Christmas IL not
before. Better finish this year and
not come back until Christmas than
quit now and expect TO be promoted
next September. Think it over.
Talk il over with your teacher, stu
dents, parents-save a little more,
make little more, sacrifice and see
il il is not possible TO keep John and
Mary in school all spring.

THE SOUTH

love the dear old Southland,
With her beautiful hills and wales
love the old plantations.
And the life that there prevails.
love those Southern mansions.
All! Fit for kings are they!
They stand alone in their splendor
Palaces Of a former day.
q may the South live ever
And great among nations be.
May its flag be pulled down never
But always wave for you and me.

JOINT LETTER FROM FORMER
BEREANS

bbhbhNo
i02 King Ave, Columbus, Ohio.
Mar. ith, 1916.
Editor Of The Citizen. Dear Sir:
We wish TO thank you for your
prompt response TO our request that
The Citizen be sent to us immed-
lately. You would have been repaid
had you seen two Berea-homesick
girls lowering over its pages, devour-
ing every news item, and discus
sing the many changes which have
taken place in Berea during the past
two years-houses and even streets,
as il were, put on wheels and moved
away.
How can il be that such progress
is possible without us?
But where is the girls gymnasi-
UNI? Where are Tennessee and Fir
cottages? What is that Heart Break
er's Social Club? Is il of very long
standing, or is IL an out-growth OF
the recent faculty leap-year party9
We have spent many happy mo-
ments planning to return TO Berea
for Commencement this year, but
fear that our dreams will terminate
in final examinations at the o. s. U.
However, should such be the case,
we will not rebel for we are greatly
enjoying our course here in Home
Economics.
We have been much interested in
your revival meetings and glad to
read that the interest is continuing.
We too have just closed successful
campaign under the leadership
of DR.. Geo. Wood Anderson, a new
but powerful evangelist. Thirty-flve
churches of North-side Columbus
co-operated, and as a result of the
meetings over four thousand took a
stand for Christ. Our church, dear
old Northminister Presbyterian, ex-
poets to receive more than one hun
dred into its membership tomorrow.
Our address is iO2 King Avenue.
We would be very glad to hear
from any of the old friends.
Very Sincerely,
Lillian Ambrose,
Mamie Johns.

ia just as easy TO take care OF the

ing constantly exposed 10 any and

SPRING BIRDS

The warm days Of February
brought a sprinkle OF hearty spring
birds. The morning air was flied
with the vivacious chat Of the Caro-
lima wren, the soft alto MARBLE OF
the blue bird, the cheerful carol OF
the robin. and the peremptory whis-
Tie ~ the titmouse. The bold. red
headed woodpecker beat his tattoo
on the hollow trunk and screamed
his defiance Of winter, while little
downy beat his reveille 10 Spring.
The rude. clustering winds and
snow Of March silenced these voices
and brought 10 mind the old nursery
query: What will poor robin do

neither are there any barns where
he could sit with his head tucked
under his wing. poor thing. Since
man has destroyed the natural nest
ing places Of the birds, would IL not
be some compensation 10 put up
some bird houses for their use, and

venerable John Burroughs, friend
of the birds. Make number OF
houses and erect them upon the
campus and throughout the town
and thus further our acquaintance
with our fcathered friends.

DEUTSCHLAND
SPEEDS HOME:
Passed Out Of Virginia Capss
Wednesday Night.
CREW Lines Up ON DECK
Shouting Cheers for "America and
the American People"-No Allied
Warships Visible.

Somewhere out in the broad
Atlantic ocean the German mer'
chant su5mar.ne Deutschland and al
lied warships were believed to be p ay
ing hide and seek as the und2Tsea
boat sped hCmcward after passing out
the Virginia Capes.
The Deutschland submerged mile
off the coast and, SO far as IS known
was unobscrved by the allied Warsnlp
patrol guarding the capes against ner
escape. At Cape Henry one two-fun
mel warship, lying out beyond the
three-mile limit was still visible.
The final dash was virtually without
incident. Eighteen miles up Chesa
peake bay, at the crossing OF the Old
Point and Cape Henry channels, the
submarine began to gather speed ana
soon was hurrying towards the Allan
tic. With only slight delay after
reaching the capes, she dashed into
the sea and submerged. Only cne
warship, a United States torpedobc at
destroyer, was sighted by the submer'
sible in her entire trip from Balti-
more, Captain Hinsch, OF the tug TIM
Minis, which conveyed the Deutsch'
land, declared.
well, she's off and we'll on her way
back to the old country" said Cap
tain Hinsch.
"Just as she started cut 10 sea-" he
added, Captain koeni3 and the crew
of the Deutschland came On deck ana
gave three rous:ng cheers for 'Amerl
ca and the American people The sea
was rough AMI the spray was splash
ing high, but the hearty cheers OF lhe
men of the Deutschland rang cle@rl!
over the waves. Captain Koenig yell
cd something to me in farewell, but
the submarine was pulling cut rapi iiy
and the distance between US was tee
great for me 10 hear what he said.
"For about a mile the Deutschland
pioughed bodily through the !iiloWs
Of the Atlantic. When about a mile
outside the capes I'VE could see hel
lights slowly disappearing as she sub
merged"
The captain declared the summers
it,e again will go through the English
channel.
There is no chance that the British
cruisers will find her." he said.
Confidence was expressed by TIE
captain that the Bremen, the Deutsch
lands sister submarine, would soon
make an American port.
During part Of Wednesday the
Deutschland had remained hidden III
cove in Chesapeake bay. For several
hours before the beginning of her final
dash she lay in a secluded retrea;
near Tangier Island, about fifty mi e.
above Cape Henry. The steamship
Somerset and the government bouy
tender Ivy reported that they passed
her at that point. The press boat then
took a position near the dividing point
OF the Old Point and Cape Henry
channels and awaited the coming oi
