military training under army ificerH
has been in effect for some time, the
Harvard regiment and the Yale artil-
lery being notable examples. But, in
addition 10 this routine military train
ing the universities have found that
their laboratories and other facilities
provided exceptional opportunities for
training In various technical branches
I'm aeroplane mechanics for exam
pie, in engineering and navigation, in
wireless operation, and in other ap-
piled sciences which directly serve
the prosecution OF the war
Increases are constantly being made
both in the enrollments az individual
institutions and in the number Of uni
versities engaged in this training SER
vice, so that figures given on one day
may be inadequate the next week.
A year ago in the first months Of
our participation in the war, as the
student bodies began to fall off and
the prospect of greatly reduced en-
rollments and consequen: deficits in
the university budgets began to loom
up, there we're various prophecies as
to what would happen to the universe
ties as a result of the war. The en-
rollments In academic courses have
fallen off; there is scarcely college
In America that has not had its stu
dent body reduced by one-half this
year, and there have been resulting
deficits, made up by the gifts of loyal
alumni or generous friends, and from
special appropriations. But now the
resources of the universities are be-
ing turned to technical training for
war, and with this development en-
tirely new opportunities for service
are opened up, new groups of students
are pouring in and the halls that were
half deserted are once more teeming
with young life.

COLLEGE WAR SCHOOLS.

One of the striking developments Of
wartime America is the way in which
the universities and colleges are be-
ing utilized for military and naval
training A recent survey showed
that fifteen higher institutions of
learning in the United States were
training more than 1900 men for
special war work, tho institutions
ranging all the way from venerable
Harvard in New England to the young
and vigorous University of Texas in
the Southwest
This training, moreover, is in addi-
ton to the Reserve Officers Training
corps which have become regular fea-
lures at many of the universities and
which have contributed thousands of
men for the National army. At a
number Of the universities--Yale. Har-
ward. Princeton and others-regular

The R. L. Topping Sermon

We presume many of our
readers will wonder that no re-
ply to the doctrinal sermon Of
Rev. Raleigh L. Topping appears
in our columns this week, in
view of the fact that we stated
editorially last week that such
reply would be published.
To clear our position in the
matter we feel it necessary to
state that the sermon was pub
lished at the request of a pastor
Of another church in the COM
munity and with the permission
Of the author, Rev. R. L. Top
ping, minister Of the First Christ
ian Church of Rosemary.
At the time the sermon was
brought to us for publication we

Merchants of the city of Ra-

of North Carolina are planning
not only to close their stores ear
ly every afternoon during the
summer months but to give one
half holiday each week so that
their statesmen and other employ
ees may have an opportunity to
cultivate their gardens. 1t is q
fair prophecy that these mer-
chants will not lose any money.
Customers will appreciate their
patriotic action in stimulating
food production and their EN-.
ploy4es will keep themselves in
better physical shape because Of
outdoor exercise.
A plan such as outlined above
should be adopted by the mer'
chants of Rosemary and Roanoke

north CAROLINA CALLED
ON FOR $4,000 MEMBERS
This is the Week to Get Cream Of
War Savings $4,000 thousand
Dollar Members Wanted

This is the week set apart to
get the cream Of War Savings in
the State. North Carolina is be-
ing called on for rs, 600 of her
men and women who will go the
limit, that is do all that the
Government asks of them, as
regards buying War Savings
Stamps. To go the limit, as ex-
planned at State Headquarters,
is to buy $1,000 of War Savings
Stamps, which is the maximum
amount the law allows to any
one individual.
The Thousand-Dollar War Saw
ings Club is national organiza-
ton with State and County units.
One percent of a states or a
county's population is the num-
Der of members to be expected.
1t has been estimated at State
Headquarters for War Savings
at Winston-Salem that there are
about rs, 600 men and women in
North Carolina of whom this
service can be expected at this
time. This number includes,
however, those who have already
subscribed this amount. Such
persons automatically become
members of their respective
county organization and are ask.
ed to so identify themselves.
To become a member of the
Thousand Dollar Limit Club does
not require that a person pay
this amount at once but that hi
pledge himself first to systematic
saving, second, to refrain from
unnecessary expenditures ant
non-essentials, third, to en-
courage Thrift and Economy il
his community, fourth, to secure
other members for the society
and fifth to purchase during tn,
year 1918 War Saving Stamps Il
the amount of $1,000 maturit,
value. An accurate count of eacl
county's membership to tn,
Thousand Dollar Club will b,
kept at State Headquarters.
