gallery target practice in bad wealth
er and range target practice in good
weather. Careful records of the
scores made by each man will be re-
corded and filed.
The above work is to be taken in
connection with the regular college
course. Six credits toward gradua-
ton are allowed each year for the
military work. All male students
must take four years of military
training. Free uniforms are furn-
ished these students by the War De-
partment. After two years train
ing, the students whose work has
been graded as excellent, and who so
desire, may enter into a contract
with the War Department whereby,
at the expiration Of their Senior
year, they are eligible for appoint
ment as reserve second lieutenant.
But as this appointment will be
made. the applicant must serve as
temporary second lieutenant in the
regular army for six months, with
pay at one hundred dollars month,
and the regular allowances. During
the last two years of the military
training course, the student will be
allowed, by the government in add
ton to uniform and some extra
items of clothing, Communication Of
rations, which amounts to about
nine dollars each month.
In order to give the four year
course outlined, the military Facul-
ty of the College has been material
" enlarged. Captain Abbott, Com
mandant, has been given part time
services of Assistant Professor Har-
old r. Hagan, one time major OF the
Student Battalion. 1t is expected that
two sergeants from the regular ar
my will be detailed at the College II

GUS members of the College Facult,
have been assigned to special lecture

STRIKING AT THE LIFE OF NATION

This nation sent 25, 700 men to fight
the battles against autocracy In Eur
ope and hopes soon 10 send half a mill
lion on the same sacred mission.
Yet in a few western communities
twice that number went on a strike
to cripple the one industry on which
the very life of the nation Is depen-
dent-shipbuilding The Sheridan,
Ore, Sun says:
Portland, Astoria, Seattle and San
Francisco are all involved in shipyard
strikes, the carpenters walking out be-
cause their demands Of a closed shop
and higher wages were not granted.
They demand that every employer
engage only union men and that first
class carpenters get So a day. II is
hard to Justify the strikes on the
grounds of expediency.
II sounds more like the clamoring
OF the hog, who given an inch endeav-
Ors 10 grab the mile. Organized la
Dor uses strikes as a means TO an
end, and II the end Is reasonable then
the means are justihable.
But So a day when a reasonable
wage Is already being given and closed
shop when this is q free and liberty
loving nation. abhoring restriction OF
personal rights and discrimination OF
classes, places strikers in a category
more contemplate than slackers.

FARMERS SHOULD smIr NOW.

An appeal to farmers to ship their
wheat now Is made by Fairfax Har-
rison, chairman OF the Railroads Wal
board. who says;
We are assured that the price Of
wheat determined by the president Will
be maintained throughout the year by
the food administration and that there
can be no objective In holding wheat.
In fact. the farmer saves interest and
deterioration by marketing early.
Al h present time the railways
can handle more wheat to storage
points for ready distribution and TO
mills to be manufactured into flour
for domestic consumption and expOr-
tation to our allies whore 4 is much
needed and for which ships are avail
able az ports.
The railways wish TO appeal to the
farmers to bring their wheat to mar
ket now. Later in the fall the hand
ing OF many more products will cause
congestion and delays.
The railways are now being oper
ated In common 10 serve the entire
community. The demands for move

an increasing burden. Therefore the
railways must have the cooperation

THE BEAUTY OF FAITHFULNEss.

Forty-eight years Of service TO the
public In a position where discipline
is most severe and where errors are
least forgiven IS a grand record for
any man 10 make. The late Fred c..
Fisher OF Lawrence made just that
record. As conductor on the Union
Pacific since the days when Lawrence
was the headquarters OF the old Union
Pacific railway, eastern division, he
has filled every requirement OF an
exacting employer and a still more
exactlng travelling public. or all the
millions Of orders which he has exc
cuted for the company probably not
one received careless or faulty atten-
ton. OF all the millions of the cOm-
pany's patrons with whom he has
come IA contact probably not one
would claim TO have been treated
shabbily or unfairly.
This ~ the kind OF a life well worth
living and It is a pity that full credit
cannot be given TO every man who
makes such a record. Fred Fisher
died In the harness. Others like Cap
tain Sam Lightcap, also OF the Union
Pacific conductor service, have had an
honorable retirement on pension. But
whether the one or the other-death

The greater servants OF the people

Wiiaon-are entitled to be called great
