STUDENTS
LIKE U.OF l.,
PROF. HOWARD T. LEWIS FINDS
STRONG SENTIMENT FOR BIG
STATE SCHOOL

J fTOI. II. l.. LEWIS, TetuIuluS lIOl
a trip through the Camas Prairie
country, says that the outlook fol
this year for the university is quite
good at last, in fact taking into con-
| sideration the obstacles the outlooh
is very good. Professor Lewis stop
ped in Lewiston, Lapwai, Grangeville
Nezperce and Orofino. Everywhere he
met with the same spirit of optimism.
The people have confidence in the
ability of the new president, DR.. E. H.
Lindley, and in the new commissioner,
DR.. E. A. Bryan. DR.. Lindley is es-
pecially we'll liked in Lewiston where
he gave a graduation address in the
spring
Abundance of Engineers
Lapwai promises to supply a num-
Der of strong students this year.. The
boys are particularly anxious to come
to Idaho in order to study engineering.
Engineering seems to be the favorite
course as the young men realize how
greatly the government needs skilled
engineers. In Lewiston all the mem
bers of the graduation class but one
are planning to study engineering.
But the peculiar situation is that only
one intends to come to college this
The rest of them believe that
one year of practical experience will
be worth more to them than an i'm
mediate college education. This be-
lief is held to be detrimental both to
the boys themselves and to the Uni
ted States. The boys who get their
training now, it is argued, will be
ready to fill the many good positions
will be open to them throughout
the whole country.
All Look to q. of /.
In Nezperce also, Professor Lewis
net with decided success. There are
five teachers in the Nezperce schools
who received their education at the
University of Idaho and they have all
hard among the students to
get them started here. Grangeville is
sending a number of students as is al
so Orofino. The Orofino young men
are inclined to choose forestry as
heir course. Many of the girls in all
towns are able to occupy i'm
positions left vacant by the
men going to the front and they are
lot all disposed to give them up lust
5et.
Fair Crops on the Prairie
The Camas Prairie country is rails
ng some fine wheat and barley this
all, Professor Lewis says, but the WELD
will be light. The wheat will average
bout Is or Is bushels to the acre and
he barley about 80. Around Grange
lille there is little or no trouble with

Doves Prove to Be Slackers.

The Old Fort Homing club of Fort
Wayne sent number of carrier pi-
geons to Los Angeles, says the Los
Angeles Times, In order to get them In
training for military service. A few
days ago Chief of Police Butler re-
leased the birds, intrusting each with n
tiny roll of tissue paper, bearing mes
sages from the mayor to officials Of
the Indiana city. Six of the birds have
not been heard from, and It Is probable
that they are happy on their way back
home. Two of them, however, refused
to be drafted and returned to the CEN
tral police station, where they were
caught and placed in a crate. Los
Angeles is pigeons paradise, but this
is no time for doves of peace. 1t seems.
The birds lost more than they gained
by their desertion. Such Is the fate of
slackers.
