MANY GET COMMISSIONS,

Fayetteville, Aug. 31.-At the close of the officers training camp at Fort Logan H. Roots eighty-five Uni, ersity of Arkansas men received commits sions ranging from second lieutenant to captain. At least fifteen others who had been transferred to Fort Meyer, Fort Leavenworth, and other places also received commissions, making the total number not less than 100 out of 13S who were enrolled in the training camp.
 When it is recalled that only about one-fourth of all the men enrolled in all the training camps in the country received commissions it will be seen that the University of Arkansas stu dents and alumni made magnificent record. number of university men who were commissioned have already been ordered to France.

From there we carried Le- bane, Leskovatz and Prokouplie of which we made ourselves masters. Then we attacked Nish, carrying the depots and half of the city.
 : Meanwhile two Bulgarian divis- ions arrived, and a bloody battle de- veloped; we should have been able to defeat the Bulgarians as we had de- feated the Germans if they had not used a cowardly strategy to prevent us from attacking them; they forced the women and the children to march in front of their ranks. Unable to fire upon our own people, we withdrew as far as Korvingrad, where new battle began and where the Hungarians at- tackled us from behind. We made an opaning and took refuge in the moun- tains. Since l was dead from fatigue was taken prisoner and with doz- en other insurgents was condemned to be hanged. Waiting while the gibbet was prepared. we were incarcerated in the prison of Prokouplie, but one of our bands killed the garrison and res- cued us.

On the 25th of April they placed aboard trains at Belotintze 5000 children between the ages of 12 and 15, bound for Con- stantinoplc. Many of the children jumped from the cars along the way, and found death in that manner.
 "The Bulgarinas gather the entire population for the purpose of vacci- hating everyone. But, instead of in- jecting serum against cholera or small pox they innoculated them with con- tagious diseases. Den of the doctors admitted that those who had fled to the mountains with their children.
 "The Bulgarians have raised glib bets on the bridge ofLeskovatz, at Bel otintze, Vlasotintze. Leblanc. Nish, Kniajevatz and at other places, and on them have hung people, women and children, compelling the others to help them in their terrible tortures."

 "I have neither time nor space to describe my misfortune but I can tell you briefly that if you do not come by the month of September, it will not be worth while coming at all. It will be too late.

r READING,

How long since you have read a
good book? Do you spent your even
ing perusing the pages Of some mod
ern magazine love story? Why not
change the diet for just one evening
and glance through some OF the
worlds great masterpieces. If love
stories you must have then you can
find such stories in the novels of the
best authors, and they are the sort
of love stories that will lift you up
and give you food for thought rather
than leave your mind a blank as is
the case with the majority of the
stories of today. When one reads a
story and it leaves no impression ION
his mind; when it's only thrill is just
for the moment in which 1t is being
read, there is no question but that the
reader could have been spending his
time at something far more worth
while.
If need be force yourself to put aside
the average current story and pick UP
the books upon which time has placed
the stamp of approval and soon you
will wonder how you ever interested
yourself in mushy and ephemeral
reading.-Mandan N. D., Pioneer.

England's Unpreparedness and Ours
Compared For Our Benefit.

At. a striking parallel exists between
1914. and ours today. A strong
body of paciicts decrying all
wars. an army in numbers beneath the
dignity of the name. an undeveloped
air service. and a munition output al
together Inadequate to the demands OF
modern warfare are common elements
OF this unpreparedness. Britain's
phenomenal rise to meet the tremend-
Gus demands thrust upon her Is full
of lessons for US. In a very interesting
and instructive monograph "The Brit
ish Empire at War addressed to his
friends in the United States. where he
lived from 1887 to 1912. Hon. Urban H.

ish parliament. tells the great sacri-
fees and preparations Great Britain is
making to win the war. He says that

the outbreak OF the war. Great Britain
has developed armies Of 100000 men.
The greatest expansion of all has been
in the air service. England and France
now enjoying undisputed supremacy
in heavier than air fighting machines.
Prior to the war Britain's output OF
munitions was based on the needs of
an army of 100000. She now makes
as many heavy shells in four days as
she did in twelve months in 1914-1915.
The total number of machine guns in
existence fifteen months ago can now
be produced in three weeks. and the
production OF high explosives is six
