The convention delegates seem quite
ready to vote on the boards proposaL

irwin City School Issue./
Among the delegates generally
there also seems a readiness to ais
pose of the problem created by the
fact that the church owns two sem
inaries in the twin cities-that at
Hamline and that at St. Anthony
Park. The arrangement effective for
year was one by which the two up
per classes have been taken care OF
at Luther seminary at st. Anthony
Park, and the first year at HamIne.
This plan has not been satisfactory
and complete consolidation probably
will he approved by the convention.
Western Schools 20 Consolidate.
Two western, schools owned by the
church also will be consolidated. be-
ing Columbia college at Everett,
Wash, and Lutheran academy at
Tacoma. This will not be arranged
by the convention. however, as It
already has been decided to leave the
details to the board of trustees and
the board of education.

That seaport, the nearest Of all to

Ydnks Swarming Into France
is Great Miracle of the War

This was only one typical camp OF
hundreds lining the roads for miles
| In this vast reception camp. Field
kitchens and water carts were wheel
ing up to all the camps as the tents
went up. Filtered water is brought
in hogsheads and each command has
its apportioned lot of hogheads. Later
on there will be splendid system OF
water mains for the whole camp. But
here are the men, and water system is
not installed in day. So instead OF
waiting for Pinch mains, the print
tive hogshead is filling the gap. Each
man carries his emergency ration for
three days. Some of them were nib
bling it before climbing into their pup
tents, but most of them waited for
the smoking field kitchen to get into
action with is cooks, serving out hot
coffee and hot soup and meat. The
item Of feeding an army with precision
is in itself a gigantic task.

And besides all the feeding and

arrived. Each of the 1913 must sorted
out and brought together, and every
individual soldier of the $4,000 must
be identified and accounted for, so as
to guard against losses, and then each
organization and man must have his
detail to one of the sectors of the
fighting front. This paper work." as
it is called, Is prodigious, and like
everything military it must be done
with absolute precision. And the pa

very hard to get.

Thus this gigantic influx of armed

they moved forward to the front, and

More Dope on u. S.

: AMSTERDAM, Aug. 2S,-America
has been able 10 transport more than
one million soldiers to France because
they have been carried in small swift
steamers which offered very difficult
targets for the torpedoes of subma-
.rines, declared Captain Zimmerman.
of the German general staff in lee
ture at Breslau on the military situa-
ton. according to the Rhenisch West
phalian Gazette, Of Essen. He said
these steamers were escorted by war
ships.
The captain said there were 100000
Americans at the front and 100000
more behind the lines.
The recent progress OF the allies,
the captain attributed to the mass EN-
ployment of tanks which had yielded
initial successes but, he declared,
means had now been found to master
them.

ably by secret agents of Germany, to

mors that the United States govern
