For Pilgrim Celebration

Plans to celebrate the three hundredth
anniversary of the landing of the Pill
grim fathers were discussed by the men,
bers of the Society of Mayflower De-
scendants at n meeting of the local
branch last night at the Washington

In 1920 the tercentenary of the alnd-
ing OF the first Pilgrim will be cele-
brated in Massachusetts,. and a commits
sion appointed by the Massachusetts
Legislature recently made a report on
the character OF the celebration.
The commission does not favor the
holding of an industrial exposition. But
it does believe that an exhibition shall
be held showing the progress In arts
and sciences. The commission recon-
mends that the shore line OF Plymouth
bay be cleared. that Plymouth Rock be
replaced in its original position, and
that a more suitable memorial than now
exists shall be erected.

SCHOOL CADETSPUT

nardwlCk Amendment Provides
For Training Of Young SOL
diers-May Cause Friction.

One Of the most interesting PROPOSE |
lions put into the army bill In the Sem |
ate Is the Hardwick amendment. look |
ing to the training Of cadets in the high /
schools and colleges of the country |
and putting them into the reserve of the
United States army.
This amendment. which passed. the
Senate by an overwhelming vote. despite
the opposition OF the Senate Military
Committee. will In all probability, re-
main In the bill when II goes to the
statute books.
It provides that the War Department
shall detail one or more commissioned
officers as instructors to schools and
colleges having a male student enroll
ment over 100 pupils or over who are
above fifteen years OF age. Such detail
Is to be made at the request of the
school authorities. Military instruction
IN to be given to the youth OF such
schools with the consent of their parents.
and they are to enter into n reserve
service in time OF war or threatened
war. No pupil under eighteen will be
subject to call.
Amendment Much Debated.
Tho HardwIck amendment was adopt
ed after much debate. In its original
form It would have applied TO schools
having fifty male students or over above
fifteen years In the form In which It
was passed. many OF the smaller high
schools will not be able to avail them
selves Of its provisions, unless It should
be modified In conference.
1t Is the belief OF many OF the Sena-
tors who supported this amendment
that II will be of value In training
young men In such fashion that they
would form valuable material for nom
! commissioned officers and officers in
| case of war.
That the amendment is going to cause
| fine series of rows among school au-
/ thorities and particularly In school
is that the opponents of training and
| believers In preparedness will urge
| school boards of schools OF sufficient
| size to ask for detail of an officer of
| the army. The paclnsts will fight this.
| With half an eye, one can see series
CT miniature wars raging IN many To-
| calities.
Enlists Only For Term.
| Under the amendment. the student
taking training would enlist only for
the period while at college. He would
be in the reserve through that period
| and NO longer. In no case would en-
listment for less than twelve months
be allowed.
students would not be subject to ac-
tive military service except In connec-
ton with their training and except in
connection with such notifications as
might be had in school vacations. Cor
