AMERICANS SAVED
THE DAY At MARNE

With the Americans on the Marna,
June 5.-Amecicans fighting the Ger
mans on the Marne furnished the
most drastic moments of the war
since General Gallinein's taxicab
army saved Paris. Rushed from
distant area under French command
to Chateau-Thierry, they did the work
on the battle line at that point that
is surpassed in history only by the
exploit Of Gallieni's troops.
The Americans now confronting the
Germans along the Marne at the point
of the farthest advance toward Paris
and who drove back the enemy after
the river had been crossed, received
half an hours notice to start for the
critical spot Railroad trains. auto
trucks. French camions and every
possible vehicle was pressed into SER

cans. having the full right of way over

TOTAL OF THIRTEEN
SUNK BY SUBMARINES.

New York, June 5.-Two more ves-
sells, a Norwegian steamship and one
schooner, were added today to the
list OF ships known to have been sunk
by the German submarines which are
raidino in American waters. The TO-
tai now stands at 13-fve steamers
and eight schooners.
The fact which stood out most prom
inently in the days Developments IS
that the u4boats still are operating
near the coast and have not returned
to their bases.
This was demonstrated when ths
Norwegian steamer Eidsyold was
sunk off the Virginia capes late yes
tordav. The navy department report
ed yesterday an encounter between
DESTROYER ed a Submarine off the
coazss &C Mar nd.
Another fact which is regarded as
! sign:icant II marine circles here Is
! that none of the vessels reported sunk
thus far was sent to the bottom BY
torpedo. It is considered certain
that the undersea craft carries tor
| pedoes and that they are conserving
! tac2l in the hope of attacking trans
port loaded with American troops.
Possibility that vessels still unre-
rorted may have been sunk was seen
in a statement of the master of the
| schooner Samuel c. Mengel. who ar
rived here today. He declared he was
| told by the commander Of the sub
marine which destroyed his ship that
tie u-boat had sunk three steamers,
one a passenger liner, and three
schooners, last Saturday. No vessels
have been reported sunk that day and
it is believed either the u-boat cap
tain was lying or that Captain Han
sen misunderstood r;m. So far as
known the only loss of life was aboard
the New York and Porto Rican liner
Carolina and that was established at
only 16 by revised lists, showing that
there was about 21S passengers and
Ill in the crew. making total of
329 instead of $50 as originally re-
ported. All those who perished evi-
IDENTIFY were lost from the life boat
which arrived yesterday

DE. HARMS. PARTING WORDS
Address to the GraduateS-The One
Great Need To-day is for Good
Men and Women Who Are
True.

My friends, this is the final service.
of an academic nature, which your
college has to do to you,-to put into
YOUR hands today testimonial or
character and scholarship. We have
gathered here today to award you a
diploma, a degree. For four years
your college has striven to provide
you with an intellectual and moral
stimulus to manhood and womanhood.
For four years you have responded
with satisfactory zeal and diligence
And this is the final service we can
render you. except to follow you for
ever with orr prayers and benedic-
tions.
1t is not necessary, my young
friends, to remind you that you are
leaving college in an interesting and
tragic time in the story of our world
/ know you feel the thrill of the great
events which are transpiring all about
US. The poet addressed his age
many years ago. and sang, eve are liv-

awful time, in an age on ages telling

day at his presumption. For no mat
ter when he lived, no matter what h5
felt 50 deeply about the times which
he describes, no matter what the CIR
cumstance. scene or season which IN
spired the song he sang, we know he
never lived in times so profoundly
tragic and significant as the times We
live in now. This is the most event
ful era our world has even seen, ex-
cept the one in which our blessed
Lord was born. We are living in the
grand and awful time. in an age Or
ages telling To he living and living
now is solemn and sublime!
And I need net say that it is the
war that makes the difference. When
that midsummer sun set On the even

ants upon the battle line. My friend,
you can do as fine a thing as any Of
them. You can keep the faith, you can
stay at home and believe in right
eousness for men and righteousness
for nations. You can cling with
prayers and intercessions about the
affairs of your God. Believe me, the
nation needs good men more than it
needs soldiers, much as it needs then
and sure as it is to get them Above
the need of soldiers, above the need O.:
statesmen, above the need of authors
and scientists and engineers and in
ventors, there is one need of this na-
tion now, in these tragic days, which
overtops all others-It is the need of
good men and virtuous women r.
isn't guns, it's clear goodness which
Will win out il the end. And as we
part from you today We call you to
goodness. We dedicate you to service.

all its policies. all its resources, al;
it's influence and ideals added to the
common cause of freedom and worla
democracy.
And we are proud to send you OUT
in times like these, to tasks so chal-
longing and daring and divine. Others
have preceded you to the battle line,
and we would be remiss today il
pride and remiss in justice too, if we
did not look upon that banner with it's
one hundred and fifty stars, and thank
God that those loyal lads who studied
/ under the scarlet and silver grey were
not afraid to fight under the Stars and
Stripes. One of them is a star OF
gold. No musketry Or cannon rear dis
turbs his dreamless sleep. And as
the weeks go and the months go and
the years 90 there will be other stars,
changing one by one from blue to
gold, from the true blue that they are,
in brave devotion, to the dear gold of
complete and finished sacrifice.
My young friends, emulate the fine
example of your companions. We
send you forth today to battle! It
may not be to battle with shot and
steel. It may not be to battle of
blood and death, as yet. But in an
other sense, whether to trench and
camp or farm and store and home,
right royal battle,-to do your part,
your bit. your best, to save the worli
from impending woe and make it f.
20 live in.
Be true to the idealisms which your
college has tried to breathe into your
souls iE these four years, in class

submit to the will of COD who made

danger in these times of turmoil and
