L. OF o. TO CONDUCT
MILITARY ENCANIPNIENT

The University of Oregon will con-
duct military encampment for four
weeks beginning Monday, June "a.
The work will be modelled on that of
the famous Plattsburg officers train
ing camp. Lieut-Colonel John Lead
er, who was commander of the Royal
Irish Rifles at the battle of the Som
me, together with an american Of
flcer to be assigned by the war de-
partment, will be in charge. Any
enc capable of doing the work is
eligible to attend and no enlistment
or promise to enlist Will be required.
The following advantages are to
be anticipated:
First: Men expecting to be draft
ed will find that such preliminary
training is likely to secure for them
early promotion to the position of
non-commissioned officer, and ap-
pointment to army officers training
camps, where they may earn COM
missions.
Second; Men satisfactorily COM
pleting the course may be included
in one of the quotas, to be assigned
to the university for appointment di-
rectly to officers training camps
where they can earn commissions.
Third: Men satisfactorily COM
pleting the course will be qualified
TO organize and command home
guard companies. High school teach
ers attending will be qualified to in
troduce military training into their
high schools.
Fourth: University, college and
high school students taking the work
will be qualified for promotion in
the R. o. T. c, organizations and in
high school training units next fall.
Fifth. All attending may expect
great physical benefit from vaca-
tion spent in this way under ideal
conditions of climate together with
carefully directed physical and men
tel activity Of a highly advantage
Gus type. Those desiring may take
advantage without extra cost of the
university summer school.
Sixth: Preparation of this kind
is an act of patriotism in the pres
ent international situation, as no one
knows what he may be called upon
to do in the next few years.
The cost will be nominal. The ra-
tiors and fees for the entire four
weeks will amount to $40. Each man
will be expected to bring two blan-
lets and some kind of a uniform.
Those not already supplied with uni
form are advised to acquire" "coverall"
trench uniforms at a cost of about
$500. The guns and equipment of
the university battalion will be avail
able, and the men will be housed In
the university dormitories, in the
gymnasium and in tents.
Detailed information and descrip-
tive folder may be obtained from the
adjutant, University of Oregon, Eu-
gene.

court the benefits Of the institution.
The subordinate lodges of Elks in
New England were represented by e.
Mary Sullivanss exalted ruler of the
Boston lodge Of Elks.
Every device and resource known
to the medical science win be at hand
at the reconstruction hospital to re-
build every part Of the human frame.
Men with half their faces shot away
by shrapnel will get new jawbones
from their ribs and new noses and
new checks from the cartilages and
tissues on other parts of their bodies.
Thousands of men who would be
human wrecks without proper treat
ment will be rebuilt at the new re-
construction hospital and taught a
trade that will make them economic
assets instead of liabilities. The men
with fractures that have not rightly
knitted, with stiff joints, with nerve
palsies from shock or from injury
these are the cases the reconstruction
hospital will help, They will have
the regular base hospital treatment
lust behind the firing lines, where
The first surgical work will be done.
Manned and disfigured men will be
reconstructed by operation, by ap-
rsratus, by education. Treatment
will be given not only to, the classes
already mentioned, but also to those
that need plastic operations to rem
edy constructures or defects or who
need appliances to supplant a miss
ing limb. Those given artificial limbs
will be educated in their industrial
use.
No agency OF the United States
army or navy is able to supply this
treatment, The government has
frankly admitted it and for this rea-
son has turned with eager grateful
ness and an assured spirit of cooper
alton to the plans which were pro-
posed to it by the Elks.
DR.. r. ]. Cotton, one of the origin
stors of the idea of reconstruction
hospital in Boston and one of the
leading orthopedic surgeons of the
country, will be in charge of the hos
pital for the government. The hos
rital will need well trained and es-
pecially efficient professional staff.
Its necessary nucleus has been re-
cruited and is only awaiting the word
to begin its service. The institution
consists of a complete unit of twin
war hospital buildings, vocational
barracks, mess hall and
post exchange.

DANGER OF OvER-CONFIDENCE

No greater calamity could overtake
this country than for our people to
become possessed of the erroneous
belief that the war is as good as won
and that further strenuous exertion
is unnecessary.
The war is not won, and unless
all indications are misleading is not
likely to be won soon. The forces
contending for victory are far too
evenly matched for either to obtain
a decided victory.
Every man, woman and child in
this country should nerve themselves
constantly remind themselves that
their utmost exertion and sacrifice
IS imperatively demanded. Any other
attitude must result in weakening
of the will to win, and consequent
ly slackening of effort-and these at
this stage of affairs would be fatal
10 our cause.
OF course, 1t is barely possible
that some fortunate circumstance
may befall to throw victory to our
arms, but this is extremely unlikely
until we have greatly increased our
strength on the fighting front.
So let us reach out after four or
five millions Of fighting men, put
them on the front, and then sus-
tain them. 1t must not be said that
America is a nation that has never
done things by halves, has now taken
up the practice. We will have peace
when our arms enforce it-not be-
fore.

If they are here, they at least know
how to preserve whole skins.
We have hit our stride at last, and
now let's keep it up till complete vic
tory is ours. Kaiserdom, with its at
tendant train of evils, must perish
from the earth.
And let us not for one moment for
get that America is the deciding fac
tor in the war.

MILLION AMERICANS WILL
SOON BE OVERSEAS

More than a million American men
will be in service in France in the
rear future, declared Secretary Bak-
er in recent address to 1877 gradu-
ates of the West Point military
academy.
Supplementing his speech an
nouncing in Washington that United
States soldiers exceeding 100000 in
number have disembarked on French
SOIL" Mr.. Baker said that I'VE will
shortly pass the million mark"
General Peyton c. March, chief of
staff, who made commencement day
the occasion of his first official visit
to the academy, said that neither the
menace of the raiding German sub
marines off the American coast nor
tie territorial gains of the enemy on
the western front will effect Amer
icas policy of sending men to France
as fast as ships can carry them.
The graduation was that of the
class of 1919, whose members were
awarded their diplomas a year ahead
Of time, the first since 1917 to at
tain that distinction, because of the
urgent need in the army for.trained
officers.
Secretary Baker, who awarded the
diplomas to the graduates, told them
they were destined to have a part in
leading the armies of the nation to
victorious peace. "After that" he
said, "as officers of the regular party,
you will prepare not for war, but be
ready for another war, if anybody
wants to make it,"
He declared the United States be-
came a belligerent because Ger
many tried to, crush individual hu-
man happiness and liberty"
Il can imagine that when the God
of nations calls the roll of those who
have been faithful said Mr.. Baker,
England will say, I have been. My
losses have been grievous, but nv
spirit is unshaken.' Italy answers,
too, from. the Alps and the Asiago
She says, My sons are here dying and
struggling, but holding the mountain

crush u.s. And France-Oh! the
beauty and sublimity of her re-
sponse: I am here bleeding at every
pore. Ny country is part occupied.
The mother earth has received to it.
self again hundreds of thousands of
my dead children. But our heads
are high, our determination is un-
broken. They shall not pass
And when America answers, does
1t not thrill you to hear, We, too,
have crossed the danger-infested seas
as Lafayette and Rochambeau did
long years since; we have co-odinat-
ed our workshops and fabricated our
materials. We are marching hun
dreds of thousands strong, and we
will continue to be there to the end"

Did you know that there was in
Europe a tiny republic a mile and a
iialf square and containing a popula-
tion of $500 people. Did you know
1t lay on the border of Belgium AMI
Prussia, four miles southwest of AK
la-Chapelle, and that it is known as
Moresnet or Altenberg? How would
you like to live in a country just
big enough to plant a flagstaff in?
