Many Applications
To the New Columbia
Military School

New York, Sept. 15-Hundreds
of APPLICATIONS for admission to the
new military school at Columbia
university have been received from
the middle west. The corps, at
the outset, it is expected, will num-
Der about 1000. More than 10000
young men in all parts of the coun-
try are seeking admission to the
corps, which probably will contain
a contingent of picked men from
Nebraska.
The administrative board and
the committee which is shaping the
continuous session, day and night,
and under the leadership of Presi-
dent Nicholas Murray Butler the
worlds largest university is util-
ling all of its vast machinery in
the task of erecting a war college
which will prepare young Americans
for leadership on the battle line
and in non-military service.
The university announces for the
benefit of applicants from Nebraska
that the educational requirements
for admission to the Students Army
Training corps are the equivalent of
a four-year course in high school.
If the applicant has not had such
course he will be at disadvantage,
but may be given a special test to
determine his fitness if the authori-
ties believe him qualified.

ment, and as if by magic there is

Gordon of femininity toward free
dom.
One stout lady, who made up the
reserves, was more successful than
the rest. She had her prayer beads
with her and they were of goodly
length and stout. These she threw
over the neck of the lamb, just as
cowboy would use a lasso, and she
held the animal until the mistress
could take charge. The picture of
the matron, with her sacred beads
forming a collar for the lamb, and
with the crucihx as pendant, was
rather symbolic.
1t was unique incident of city
life on crowded corner in these
days of unusual things in food, wool
and feed conservation and despite it
being a gray and lowering morning,
depressing on the spirits, all the
spectators smiled because Mary was
