bulances-grim reminders of the work that is to come. Many of the ambu- lances were driven by women, as were motor emergency kitchens. One of the motor service units represented the District of Columbia. At the head of this division marched Mrs. Josephus Daniels, wife of the secretary of the navy.
 Many of the marchers carried service flags denoting that sons or husbands are in the service of their country. As these flags passed the reviewing stand they were saluted by Secretary Daniels, Surgeon General GorgaS. Governor Edge of New Jersey and Major Gen. eral Hoyle, commander of the depart ment of the east, almost as punctil- iously as were the stars and stripes when they went by at the head of each division.
 Marching at the head of the process sion were Henry P. Davison, chairman of the Red Cross war council, and sev- eral of his aides.

AMERICANS WATCH LAUNCHING IF GREAT
 DRIVE BY BRITISH
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Oct ~4-American army officers have been watching with intense interest the situation on the western front which apparently is reaching a climax in the great drive launched today by the British.
 From the many reports indicating the developing of some important movement, coupled with the continual futile attacks of the Germans along the British front, some military observers here have become convinced that the Teutons were covering a great with drawal of their line Other officers, however, believe that the German high command has been hurling it's men at the enemy with the desire to check an advance determined to hold it's present hres at any cost until winter comes to the rescue.
 Officers who think the German ac- tWity has covered a withdrawal to shorten and strengthen lines and ease the strain of the army, expect that behind the German divisions through which General Haig's men were cut ting their way today will be found new positions, fully manned and strongly built against which the offensive will crash.
 Early reports from the front showed the Germans to be surrendering by hundreds. This may mean deteriora- tion of morale to such an extent that the rear guard will fail in its mission and spell disaster to the newly chosen positions.
 Some observers here believe the Ger man army spirit generally is badly shattered. In support of this, they cite the continual peace cry in Germany; | the expressions of prisoners captured by the allies; the youth of prisoners and the repeated failures of German attacks during the last few weeks to make any impressions on the British 1 and French fronts.

FEWER STUDENTS ENROLLED
University Begins Fffty-Seeond Year
With 2,067 Students-FacuIty
Loses 20 Teachers, Too.

The University of Kansas has be-
gun its fifty-second year with 2,O67
students, a decrease of 516 below the
enrolment the beginning of the
school year in 1916, when 1853 stu
dents were enrolled There are 1.167
men students and 500 women students
in the University this autumn. Last
year men outnumbared women two to
one.
The larger proportion of women stu
dents and the smaller enrolment Of
men is because of the war, as is a de-
crease of more than forty teachers in
the faculty Chancellor Stroag and
the board OF administration have made
the war an opportunity to grant leaves
of absence without pay to a number
Of older professors to enable them TO
study and do research work in other
schools. More than twenty faculty
men now are in the army or in mill
tary work Many teachers also
have been released because the war
has greatly affected the enrolment
OF certain departments.
In the German department the en-
rollment is more than half smaller
than last year. there being a falling
off of seven-twelfths in the number
of students studying German. Five
teachers of German have been re-
leased because of this. In 1915 there
were 6O9 students in the University
studying German. Last year the to-
tai enrolment of the German depart
ment was SIS. This year it is scarce
~ $50, so far
French has its biggest enrolment
at the University this year and 459

There are pa students taking Span

GRAIN FOR LITTLE P0RKERS
Placed in Creep Away From Mother
Makes Weaving Easy-Best Time
for Castration.

If the young pigs have been taught
to look for a little grain in a creep
away from their mother, weaving will
be easy. With sweet skim milk as the
basis of their ration at this time their
growth need not be interrupted at all.
While still on the sow, and prefer
ably a couple OF weeks before Wean-
ing, is the easiest time to castrate the
young boars. Cleanliness and not too
awkward handling in the operation are
all that are necessary at this time
If the pigs are older when castrated
more skill is required and the shock is
much greater on the pig.

Shire Mare With FoaI.

Of on, their horses would now be much

lean market demanded a gray Per
cheron the Frenchman supplied it
When it demanded a black Percheron
