Goodrich Urges Keep College Going

That school and college work are no less es-
sential in war time than in peace time and that
young men should give very serious consideration
to the necessity of going to college this fall is the
essence of public letter just written by Cover
nor Goodrich to Horace Ellis, State Superintend-
ent of Public instruction.
I'm this present important period of the ma
tons history, when the thoughts of everyone are
upon the worlds war and the part America is
taking in it, we must not permit our high schools
and colleges to suffer from lack Of interest and
attendance reads the Governors appeal. For
the students of today are the men and women of
affairs of tomorrow, and without proper train
ing we shall not, in the years to come, have the
skilled statesmen and trade workers upon whom
so much depends.
'The heads of our schools are proposing to lay
emphasis upon the subjects tending to success
full prosecution of the war, and | desire to urge
young men and women of high school and college
age to make every effort to enroll for studies this
year. True patriotism in our young men and
women not old enough to go to the front may we'll
consist in preparing mentally and physically for
the future.
State Superintendent Ellis in making public
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1917-08-17

this letter said: II beg to lend my hearty en-
dorsement of Governor Goodrich's suggestion
and express the hope that all the Indiana colleges
may make particular effort to increase the en-
rollment in all the classes with the September
opening. The Governor wisely observes that the
courses of study should be modified to suit the
present exigencies."
''In recent visit to all of the provinces of
Canada" continued Mr. Ellis, where | made a
careful study Of the school situation, found that
colleges, high schools, normal schools, and ele-
mentary schools are bending all their energies
to the one end of war prosecution. America can
not do less than this. Meanwhile, the churches,
the Y M. C. A., the schools, and all other legiti
mate agencies should not overlook the important
fact that moral courage is as essential to victory
as physical courage, and accordingly those
things should not be passed by which time and
experience have shown so valuable in the develop
ment of sturdy character

LESSON NO. 5-FIRST DAYS IN CAMP

to make sure that every man has at
tended to his prt of the work. There
is then often some time which the
trained soldier uses for attending to
his personal needs, tidying up his
clothing, and the like
The remaining two or three hours
of the morning are likely to be spent
in drill--at first in "close order" and
later in extended order" also. These
terms will be explained in another
part of this course. AS you advance,
the drills will become more and more
interesting. During the drill there
are numerous short periods of rest.
In most camps guard mounting
comes about noon. This consists of
relieving the men who have been
guarding the camp and turning over
this duty to new men. Each soldier
mounts guard not oftener than once
a week. After guard mounting the
men go to dinner, which comes at
twelve o'clock. At least one hour is
always allowed for dinner and rest
During the afternoons the work is
likely to be varied and to include ad-
ditional setting-up exercises and other
drills, target practice, bayonet exer-
cises, and later, more advanced drill.
ing. About five o'clock comes the
evening parade and retreat" when
the flag is lowered or furled for the
night. The band plays The Star
Spangled Banner" while all officers
and soldiers stand at attention. The
ceremony is designed to deepen each
mans respect and love for the flag
which he serves; it is always i'm
pressive. After the flag is lowered, it
is carefully folded and escorted by
the guard to headquarters, where it is
kept until the next morning, when it
is again raised.
Supper comes between five and six
o'clock, and is usually followed by a
period of rest. In the training camps
there will be many opportunities for
variety of healthful amusements-
for sports, for music, the theatre, and
so on, as later described Taps are
sounded ten o'clock. This is the sig
nal to put out all lights, retire and
keep quiet. 1T closes the day for the
soldier and sends him to his blankets
a tired and sleepy man"
This is only sample Of day In
camp. On some days your company
will go on hikes" After time there
will be longer marches, when you will
carry your shelter tents with you
and will make your own camp each
evening. These are days that will
be especially interesting. You will
learn the soldiers art of adapting
yourself to new situations and making
yourself comfortable.
Your officers will ask you to do
nothing that they have not done many
times themselves. They will ask moth
ing of you which any normal, healthy
man cannot do. After a month or
two of this training you will find that
you have begun to take on some of
the skill and the self-reliance of a
real soldier
