(By William Hickman. }

Last Wednesdaysthe Mcmillan ca

ing a visitor at their regular daily
drill. Col. F. N. Henderson, Com
mandant of the Missouri Military
Academy, after watching the drill,
made a short address to the cadets,
in which he congratulated them upon
their wonderful progress and invited
them out to witness the Academy
cadets drill.
The memorial of the Glass of 1917
is expected to arrive soon. Owing
to the impossibility of securing d
bust of Virgil, the present will be
life sized statue of Minerva, the
Goddess of Wisdom.
Following the example set by the
Senior Glass, the Freshmen had pur-
chased a Liberty Bond. Practically
all of the money was collected by
contributions, while the rest will
be taken from the class treasury.
Last Saturday, before an assembly,
Mrs. C. F. Clark, delivered a very
interesting and inspiring address in
behalf of the Food Conservation
Campaign, being waged in all parts
of the country in the hour of the
war crisis. She urged the substitu-
tion of corn for wheat, and the elimi-
~, nf in oil

Ex-Presydent Tafts subject will
be Of a patriotic nature. He and 9TH
er men of his type are giving time to
the service of the nation. These men
lecture as occasion affords and, of
course, receive pay for these lectures.
The fee paid Mr.. Taft on next Friday
night does not go to any specific
cause so far as we now know. We do
know, however, that ex-President
Taft is contributing in both time and
money a great deal more than he
ever receives in fees for the benefit
of our country .at large at this time.
The American poOpie have not yet
realized what our going into war
means. The more general and accu-
rate information we can get from
men high in the councils of nation
or from those in touch with our lead
ers, the better we shall be prepared
to perform our part in the conflict.
The brunt has not yet been expert
enced by American troops. We send
our boys and our money; the women
are responding as nobly as the men.
What we need is information. Pres
ident Taft will give us valuable in
formation. He will discuss, in part
at least, what the significance would
be of an early peace. He probably
will give information as to the mag
nitude of the task of sending an
army across the seas and keeping it
supplied from base more than three
thousand miles distant. He may have
few words to say of Red Cross and
Y. NJ. c. A. work.
Our people should keep in mind
that no man in public life is stand
ing by the Government with a better
spirit than is Mr.. Taft He realizes
that President Wilson's task is IN no
sense a question Of partisan politics
