There is less homesickness among
our students this fall than we have
ever seen before, less Of the slack
err spirit and more of the aggress-
i've, press-forward purpose. These
thousand students who are hurrying
to aud fro upon our campus are
sending thousand messages back
to thousand more young people OF
the same spirit and determination
in thousand different towns and
valleys. These messages are invi-
tatlons To come 10 Berea if they can
possibly get bed To sleep in and a
place at the table.

wonderful advance that has been
made in the science of aviation as

State University Opens

Not more than 500 of the normal
attendance at State University will
be in evidence at the 1918 ses-
sion, according to estimates made
by Registrar Gillis at the close of the
first days registration. About 230
students made formal application
for entrance into the university up
to the time for closing of the regis
tration hall.
DR.. Frank McVey, the new presi-
dent of the university, will arrive
Saturday for few days stay, when
he will be formally introduced to
the students.
The University Club has arranged
for a reception in honor of Doctor
McVey on Saturday night, and presi-
dents and members Of the other
faculties of other universities and
colleges throughout the state have
been invited to meet the new uni
versity mead there.
The arrival of Capt. Britain, Of
the varsity football team, and Of
Murfree. of Louisville, another star
of last year, has revived the hopes
at the university for a good foot
ball team, and with a great deal of
promising new material out for the
first practice, il is beginning to look
like a victorious team might be yet
shaped out.

Important For New Students

Just word of notice and advice to young people
coming to Berea this year.
In the FIRST place, every one must have the neCes-
sary amount to make the first payment school bills
On account OF the difference in the price of board the
boys will pay upon entering than the girls. Boys
in the Vocational and Foundation Schools must have
S22.45; Academy and Normal, S2485 and College,
S25.Ss. Grls must have s2L75 Tor the Vocational and
Foundation Schools; S24I5 for the Normal and Acad-
emy; and $25.I5 for the College. This includes the
dollar deposit but does not include special like
Stenography, Music and clothes, books and stationery.
After the school bills have been paid each student
should have two three dollars in change to take
of laundry and other necessary expenses
Another important thing is that personal checks
will be endorsed by member, of the faculty All bills
must be paid in cash. money ORDER cashiers certified
check.

Going Off To School

The first thing is to have ones child attend the
home schoo-star the first day, go every day, learn all
the district school has to teach.
The next thing is to help the and daughter go
away from home to good school like Berea.
You must have noticed as many have, that young
folks learn faster and learn much that they could
get at home by coming to Berea They have the best
teachers and different teachers for different studies
They the best young people from other places.
They learn to manage themselves.
In years gone by the rich only could send their
boys and girls away to school; but now Berea, whose
advantages priced by many rich people, has made it
possible for every family send at least one son
daughter away to school,
Are you doing your whole duty for your son or
daughter

The capture of the seaport, Riga,
by the Germans, lays open the way
TO the Russian capital, Petrograd.
II looks now as though an attack
would be made on that city both
by land and sea. II is protected,
however, by long distances of low,
marshy country and the lateness
of the season is favorable to the

Thus Germany has violated the neu-

The attitude of Sweden in this
war has been under scrutiny for
some time because it is believed she
has aided Germany in every way
possible. The royal party is pro-
German in sympathy, but there is
a different feeling among the masses

about to occur and it is thought the
people will be able to make their
opinion known. Sweden must now
declare herself as strictly neutral

It Works! Try 1t
Tells how to loosen a sore,
tender corn SO II lifts
out without pain.

No humbug! Any corn, whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out, without a
particle Of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is
compound of ether discovered by
Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
trifle, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender. aching corn or callus. Instant
ly the soreness disappears and shortly
the corn or callus will loosen and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat out
the corns or calluses but shrivels them
without even irritating the surround
ing skin
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying 1t or
afterwards. If your druggist don't have
freezone have him order it for you.
