MIDDLEBURY SENDS
100 MEN TO VAR
Continued from first page)

our service will count for most, but we
stand ready, I trust, to the last man
to place ourselves under the flag when
the path of duty is clear. We are in
the war to win. A part of our her,
itage in our mother tongue is the coun-
sci of Tom Brown at Rugby-"Boys
don't fight, but if you do fight, don't
give up while you can stand or see." We
tried to obey the first part of that motto
and we will not be found disobedient
to the last if it takes the last man who
can pass the surgeons.
But at present the nation has chosen
whom she desired and through high Off
GERS of army and navy, through the ma
tional commissioner of education, and
even by the voice of President Wilson,
has hidden the rest of us maintain our
college at the highest possible standard,
both in attendance and in quality of
work. There can be no question of the
wisdom or the patriotism of that ad-
vice.
~ believe that college can do its
best work during the war by being a
college and dang the normal work of
a college under the stimulus of the great
endeavor of the nation in its fight for
world freedom. I do not mean college as
usual" college as if the country were
not involved in the greatest conflict Of
all time, but college as the issues and
struggles of the war have revealed that
q college ought to be. l think it can
be shown that this great war has brought
into the clear new ideal and purpose Of
college training, or at least purpose
different from that which many of lis
held formerly
"This war has led us very rapidly In
the direction of some form of Socialism.
Individual effort, competitive strife for
the largest possible share of the good
things of the world, is giving way rapid
ly to community effort on large scale
and reaching down into the intricacies
of life in order to protect and conserve
the common good in which alone the in
dividual may win and hold any good for
himself
"The Germans were the first of the
great nations to learn the lesson and
they are to-day the most highly organi-
zed and socialized people in the world. In
their view every member of the empire
from the kaiser to the humblest peasant,
pINeS lOT bHe HdllOH dloIts anu buc ma
tion has right to all that he has and is
and must direct his life to the last de-
tail for the carrying out of the national
purpose. The end they seek is power,
and power in order to wealth, that they
msye rule by land and sea and be the
master of the peoples of the earth, with
none to make them fear.
Shall we fight them on their own
level and try to put ourselves in the
place they are seeking? Shall we seek
20 organize ourselves, politically, socially,
and economically, to the end that we
make ourselves one of the allied nations
dominating the world, ruling it by mill |
tary power, and crushing the liberty and
life of others on the principle of the
survival of the strongestf

tirely apart and separate from the main
tenance of our neutral commerce, espe-
cially of that with Latin America and
Asia. They are as much dependent On
us for merchandise which, on accoui.s
war conditions, is obtainable nv-a~re
else, as we are on them for indispensable
military supplies. Happily, we seem to
be in the way of having the co-opera-
ton of the larger part of Latin America
in the prosecution of the war; but,
should that not come to pass, we can
still reckon on its benevolent neutrality.
We may realize practically pan Ameri-
canism by steadfast recognition in prin-
ciple and practice of the economic ties
between the United States and the 9TH
er American republics. Our country
must continue to offer a market for a
considerable part of the products of Lat
in America, and must see to it that ade-
quate transportation is provided for the
conveyance of that merchandise. So
also, the United States must stand ready
to serve as source of supply to the
countries of Latin America of merchan-
disc which they can obtain nowhere else
but which is necessary for their life and
industry and the development of their
resources which were interrupted three
years ago The exports administrative
board has great opportunity in con-
structive work in fostering trade with
Latin America. The needs of our sister
republics for the articles of export with
which we can supply them can be def
nitely determined, and a policy adopted
calculated to give them an assured
source of supply here. Once it is real
lied throughout Latin-America that the
United States recognizes, as primary
principle of its war policy, the duty of
the needs of its southern
neighbors and of maintaining uninter-
rupted the means of transportation, a
surer basis will be supplied for satisfac-
tory pan-American relations"

ident Wilson that he has brought into
the clear and imbedded in the common
mind through a phrase that will never
be forgotten another and far higher pur-
pose The democracy which he has set in
the heart of the world is no mere politi-
cal and governmental method. The Ger
man statesmen who interpret 1t as an at
tempt at dictation as to their form of
government miss the real meaning OF
it. We have lived at peace with impe-
rial Germany all our lives and were
strenuously DESTROYS of continuing to do
so. Our national spokesman suffered
patiently for years reproach and rebukes
without number for his insistence on
neutrality toward the imperial German
government.
The change from neutrality to passion
ate attack, in which Mr.. Wilson has
carried the heart of America whole souled
with him, was caused and forced by inn
moral diplomacy and by savagery and
inhumalssm in the conduct of the war.
We are fighting for something more than
freedom of the seas, something other
than to checkmate the plan of central
European empire ruling the world from
its line of fortresses from the North
sea to the Persian gulf. We are fighting
for the maintenance in human society
of customs, laws, and usages which are
proper to civilized humanity, and we are
fighting against the attempt to establish
the laws of the jungle as recognized and
permanent usages in the relations of men
and governments with each other
Our enemy is baby murder on the
high seas, and the bombardment of the
at Rheims, and the rape of
Belgian women, and the exile and en-
slavement of civilian workmen, and pois
on gas and defiled wells and the unsexing
of Servian boys and the massacre of
100000 Armenian women and children
the most dastardly and horrible crime
ever committed under the eye of AL
mighty God 1t is these things that |
have overcome all the natural impulses
of the American people to abstain from
war, and reversed the deep imbedded ma
tional policy, sanctioned by Washing |
toms great name, to hold ourselves aloof !
from European quarrels, and which have |
brought us heart and soul together to /
win against Germany. II is not merely (.
to make the world safe for nations of /
democratic method it is to make the
world safe for the ten commandments
and the Golden Rule, to put down savag-
cry and clear the way for a human So
,iety in accordance with the principles
Of justice and charity"

It's the Encores People Call for That
Make Lying Difficult.

"Sid Says" in the October American
Magazine;
Il have long considered issuing warn
ing to liars-so here goes.
I'VE are all tempted to decorate the
truth Frequently the truth is no lily
so we like to paint it.
But we have another human frailty
which, particularly when it comes to our
wanting to tell lie, is exceedingly both
ersome-and that is our poor memories.
We don't realize how often we tell the
same story twice, and we don't realize
how hard it is to tell the same story
twice alike, especially if it isn't true.
You recall the old Hoosier saying, L
reckon that a man in order to be a good
liar must have wonderful memory
There is no doubt that it is easier to
tell the truth and then repeat it, than
il is to tell a lie and then try to repeat
that. Test yourself on this. Suppose
somebody asks you what size hat you
wear. If you tell the truth about it you
won't have any trouble answering the
same question a month from now. But il
you lie about it you may not recall the
lie you told, and find yourself puzzled.
nat Il now TINS eulNotldl Hdpptutu
TO be written-only it wasn't the size of
a mans hat that got him into trouble,
but the size of his salary. A friend of
mine had two interviews with a man
whom he was considering for an impor-
tant job. The interviews were three
months apart. At the first interview the
man was asked what salary he got. He
mentioned a certain figure. At the sec
ond interview the same question was
asked and a different figure was men
toned. II so happened that my friends
connections were such that he could get
at the truth. He did get at il. and found
that both figures were lies. That ended
the negotiations for the new job.
As a race we human beings are pretty
clever. We can move about the monkey

agility But the liars trapeze j. beyond

ANY students in the city or town who
are discouraged and want to give up
school and 90 to work are asked to call
at the seminary office and talk over the
situation Many times new school
with a complete change of students and
teachers is the incentive needed to sue
cessful work. Two sessions, smaller
classes, individual help, the opportunity
to take over a subject in which one has
failed and still go on with the class
without losing year have allowed many
to complete their course who were about
ready to give up. Think this over

stood with the rest OF the audience.
"My husband is Il loyal American of
German parentage," Mrs. krenpipg

my husband tisliked him for political
reasons and was stanch supporter

was a traitor, but he did not mean
this remark for the public, A small
boy sat in front of us and after my
husbands demonstration man who
sat three rows ahead came back and
asked this boy something and then
followed us out of the theater after !
had succeeded in persuading Mr..
krenning TO leave. He and another
man pointed out my husband to the
police and Mr.. Krenning was arrested.
! "Since then have been unable to
communicate with MIR. krenning, and
have asked Attorney Jepthia D.
Howe and Otto F. Stfel to look after
him."
Mrs. Krenning related that she had
seen war service as trained nurse a,
Chickamauga Park during the Span
ish- American War, and that she and
her husband were always patriotic.
Krennng, in continuation of his
statement to reporters at police head
quarters, declared that che is willing
to pay the penalty for what he die

did, and that he is not begging mer.

There are between forty and fifty
thousand boys encamped awaiting the

enemy. War talk is all one hears.
We have spent many hours in digging
trenches, bayonet exercises, and later
will take up bomb throwing, and, the
best of all, target practice.

what a big company $50 men make.
We had parade at retreat last night,
aud when we came by the reviewing
stand in company trout, it looked
mile long.
This place is the most wonderful
camp you ever heard Of. 1t is i'll the
shape Of horse shoe and is s miles
long and miles vile. Every branch
OF the service is represented here and
there are about $4,000 men in camp,
1t sure is the real thing. Every morn
ing the artillery practices, and believe
me we are getting used to the noise Of
big guns. Also, this is an avistionltrain-
ing school and there are always fifteen
or twenty aeroplanes flying about.
We are taking up every phase OF
trench warfare. In fact, we are dig
ging every kind OF trench known now,
and think about IA thousand more
that were never known before. Also,
don't see why they waste all their
time on that little bit of granite out at
Granitevilie when they have all this
clay out here. You never saw such
hard stuff in your life.
The training here is ell done by
schedule and is to take up sixteen
weeks. AT the end OF that time we
are supposed to be ready to ship
across. However, there is some talk
Of our leaving here December lst, and
wintering AT Cuba.
