Cambridge, June 21.-At com- mencement exercises i'm Sanders the- ater, decorated with flags of the al- lied nations, President A.

More than 1,200 degrees were awarded graduates of the college.
 It was the first bone dry com- mencement in the history of the uni- versity. The Harvard alumni asso- citation had requested that soft drinks alone be served at the various class reunions and there was general com- pliance.
 The annual meeting of tho Har- yard alumni association was attended by seniors for the first time. Tn reading the annual report of tho col- lege, President Lowell announced that the customary gift by the 25th year class was a $100.o00 Liberty bond"

with the one purpose in mind.-that is, to administer a beating to the ex- ponents of autocracy. The United States went> into this war with the one idea,-to see that the kaiser and his tribe were finally effaced from the face of the earth. The United States went into this war in order that the prophecy and wish of Colonel come true,-namely that the Hohen- zollerns and the Hapsburgs might be all sent to hell. The United States entered this war in order that the bandits and the outlaws of this gener- ation should be brought to trial; that the murderers of innocent men, wom- en and children should not be allowed to go free. The United States entered this war so that nQ man or tribe of men should stand forth as the master or masters of all that they might sur vey. The United States entered this war so that no neighbor state, in all the wide world, should put forth her hand and rob and pillage from near by dweller of the soil. The United States, in a nutshell, entered this war so that right might take the place of might, and that law should hold the upper hand over outlawry.
 Having entered the war under the of opoontiorod conditions tho 1Yritad States will not sit idly by and see that injustice is done to any of the bellig- .erent powers. On the contrary, the United States will see that justice is done to all. It will see that Germany as we'll as England and France and Russia and Italy and all the members of the Entente Allies come off with a fair part of the bargain. The United States is too big and great to stand by and see any nation suffer from the reckoning that must take place. That also is why the United States is in the war.
 In all the wars that this country has fought it has come out the winner.
 
 Likewise, it has come out the loser. For the United States has never asked any other nation to recompense 1t for any task undertaken. It has also never asked for indemnity or for territory. Whatever wars it has fought have been fought on their merits.
 Why are we in this war? We are in 1t to see that justice is done to all; to see that the Stars and Stripes of America shall triumph over all the flags of civilization; to see that no man or nation shall rise up in might and crush smaller neighbor. We are in this war to down autocracy and to elevate democracy over the heads of all the kings and princes and po- tentates of Europe. We are in this war for the people of the world.

TO CONSERVE FOOD.

Soon the President of the United States will create an Exports Coun- ell the duties of which shall be to regulate the amount of shipments to foreign countries. The prime idea of this council, aside from helping to conserve food at home, is to see that no food from the United States reaches Germany. It will exercise sort of censorship over the Trading with the Enemy Act. To this end it will pay especial attention to all ship ments of foodstuffs to Denmark, Sweden. Norway and Holland. Once the needs of the people in these coun-
 tries have been satisfied there will be no more foodstuffs sent to them for
 fear the surplus might find it's way into German territory.
 When nation is at war it's food
 supply must be conserved When 8
 nation is at war 1t must take every
 means at it's command to prevent
 foodstuffs from reaching the enemy.
 Thus the United States is forced to
 put into effect such a law as is now
 being debated before Congress and to
 create council to supervise exports.
 As we go on further into this war we
 shall see that every day will bring
 8 change of conditions.-especial 3 change effecting living within this domain. Instead of the recklessness that has always been in force in this country there must come a steadiness of habit and practice which will bear the fruits of fruga1ity. Instead Of extravagance there must come econ cmy.
 The state of Connecticut has taken 1 the first. step to control the food sup ply. Before any other state got
 started Governor Holcomb appointed a board of nine to look into the status l quo of foodstuffs in this state and to recommend to him just what should ] be done to prevent waste. This board
 IS in session every day. At it's offices l in Hartford, 1t is quietly conducting l an inquiry into the entire situation
 as regards Connecticut and soon its report will be in the hands of the chiee executive. When that survey 1 has bcc, presented in it's proper 1 chape the people of Connecticut, will have been protected in more ways than one. They will not be subjected
 to the cnorsnous~rrohts of the middle l man once the amount of foodstuffs
 here has been publicly pronounced 1 As it will be in Connecticut so it will 1 be in ether states of the nation. Tho | federal government will eventually l get around to the point where it will protect all its people from extortion.
 The Exports Council is the first great | step toward this end.

Alfalfa Food Products.

 Alfalfa flour is nothing more than, the ground and finely powdered leaves of alfalfa hay. But that's nothing. For many years the alfalfa enthusiast has been abroad in the land and he maintains anything and nearly everything that Is good about his favorite grass. Moreover, he be- lieves 1t, and more often than one would think he is right. The faith in its universal merit led one of the large farm machinery companies to design machinery for the preparation of alfalfa flour, alfalfa tea, alfalfa coffee and alfalfa 50 many other things that we dare not mention them hero lest our sincerity be at tackled.
