FLORIDA COLLEGE
STUDENTS ENLIST

Jacksonville, Fla, May 11-No in
stiutions in Florida have contributed
as many volunteers to the regular and
national armies as the schools and
colleges, which will add greatly to
their honor rolls after the closing
week in June. Many patriotic young
sters are preparing to enlist just
as soon as they throw their books
aside; in fact, it is difficult to re-
strain some of them before that day
appears.
Since the war was declared the Uni
versity of Florida has given up fully
80 per cent of it's students, and 9TH
er colleges doubtless have made sim
liar records. This in spite of the fact
that no effort has been made to take
| those not in the draft age from their
studies. The boys simply have felt
the urge of the spirit of patriotism
that is sweeping through the demo-
cratic world today and having felt 1t,
answered or intended to answer Here
am l."
Representing the recruiting service,
Private Frank L. Huffaker, former
! editor of the Tampa Daily Times, who
at his own request has been assigned
to the tank corps with prospects for
early service abroad, addressed stu
dents of the University of Florida
| last week and was informed by many
| of all classes that they intended to
| enlist immediately after commence
| ment exercises are concluded. A
large number of those within the
| draft age stated that they were anx-
ious to go to training camps imme-
| dfately and restless because the call
| for, them was delayed. Quite num-
l Der have endeavored in spite of being
! subject to the draft, but this IS not
i permitted.
"A majority of those enlisting at
| present. said Lieut.. NJ. J. De Priest,
recruiting officer for Florida, ARE
! youthful members of the leading fam
j lilies of the state. Those boys having
| finished their studies for the year,
| lose no time in going to the recruit
| ing offices and applying for the privi-
| lege of serving in the various branches
] of the army. They are a patriotic,
fearless lot, and their attitude re-
| fleets credit upon them and their
j forebears.''
/ Lieut.. d. Priest also expressed him
/ self as greatly pleased with the
patriotism being manifested by the
/ colored men of Florida. .They con-
Il tinue to enlist in large numbers, their
I preference naturally being for quar-
I termaster and stevedore work, but

GERMAN SUBJECT A
SWINDLER OF SOLDIERS

Paris. May if-The arrest OF Ger
man subject, Simon Freshman, on the
complaint of swindling soldiers, has
called attention to the fact that the
prefecture Of police and the secret ser
vice department have still 10000 rec
ords of foreigners living in France to
investigate.
One of the reasons for the delay in
action is the liberality France has
shown, even toward the subjects of
countries at war with France 4 con-
siderable number of papers have crit
iciZed the government for too great lem
ieney in this respect. and have attrib-
uted some of the espionage that has
come to light to this attitude.

GENERAL LOGAN.

Des Moines Capital: Adjutant Gen
feral Guy E. Logan. after a service OF
nearly ten years in his office, has re-
signed to accept the appointment of
major in the aviation service. General
Logan served in the Philippine war.
Practically all his manhood years have
been in the military service. In taking
care of the national guard in times OF
peace he was efficient. When the war
came he was equal to every demand,
and the demands were great He has
worked early and late. He has been
the one man to whom nearly every
body appealed when in search of mill
tary information. His office has be-
come an encyclopedia of war. He
has advised men who wished to enlist
and those who did not desire to do so.
He has advised drafted men. He has
advised wives and mothers of soldiers
ard has done all this work cheerfully.
When the troops were first modified
there was scarcity of clothing, blank
cts, and. in fact, all manner of equip
ment, making the situation embar-
RAISING. General Logan never lost
patience, but in every case did the
best he could. AS a state official in a
general way he has been a model. AS
a military man he has been constant
credit to the state. The people OF
Iowa owe him this public recognition.
They will all wish him success in his
new work Being a soldier, he could
not stay out of the fray. Therefore
he sought more active service.

THE cRow-rRlEND OR ENEMY

Davenport Democrat: Having dem
onstrated that the mole. the skunk.
the bull snake, and many other AMI
mails and reptiles for which some
people have an aversion, are really
our friends and worthy OF being maze
the pets especially Of the farmer, the
bureau OF biological survey, OF the
department of agriculture, has turned
its attention to the crow. 1t has to
admit that in this case 1t Is about 8
$3.50 proposition. and that the crow
does a good deal of harm at some
times and in some places, and that at
other times and places he does lots
of good.
His title to our friendship is based
largely on his appetite for insects
and rodents. while the harm he does
is largely to the corn fields in certain
regions, and in places to eggs and
nests of birds and Of poultry. As q
poultry raider, 1t seems to be agreed
that this is an individual trait rather
than a typical one. An occasional
canny bird will learn that the nest
contains eggs that make delicious
food, or that the newly Matched chick
is easier to catch than mouse or
grasshopper, and greatly to be de-
sired. But the habit is hardly gen.
eral.
The Investigators report. that the
n1isdeeds of which the crow has been
convicted greatly outnumber its vir-
tues, but these are not necessarily
equal in importance. Much OF its
damage to crops and poultry can be
prevented, while the birds services

WHERE WEST LEAD EAST.

It is poor business to fly in the face of facts.
We are told by government spokesman that the
most patriotic service the American citizen can
render just now is to support the Liberty loan
and to continue to buy Thrift stamps. We are
also told by certain government investigators
that the western farmers need stirring up; that
they are not yet awake to the need OF haste and
energy in the war. Now for the facts: Five
western states Zone Of them Iowa) all OF them
Largely rural in population, have not only filled
their quotas of the loan but have to rallied to
it's support that not single eastern city or
state has any such per capita record. More
over, when volunteers are needed for govern
ment services, it is the rural western states that
are first and most largely represented in the re-
Spouse. There are western states which have l.
w. W. troubles to meet; there are pro-German
communities to bother others But on the facts
the western farmers seem not only to be thor
oughly awake to the nations needs but to be
gratifyingly active in supporting them.

Columbus Dispatch: The man who

but he is missing a good deal that
doesn't cost him anything, after he
reads the first page. He will know
as little about the world as man
would know about the home II he

hall.
William Allen White used to refer
to the first page as the parlor page
but it isn't even that. It's only the
front hall--the entrance to the house,
the place to take off your overcoat.
coat and hat and rubbers. You are
not even invited to sit down on the
front page; instead, at the bottom OF
the many columns you are given an
invitation to proceed into the next
room.
But just as the front hall gives one
the first impression OF the home, so
the first page gives one the first Inn

orderly and uncleanly; if the lam
guage is coarse and harsh and Inn

past the front page, no more than
you would expect to find an orderly

chairs to get past the hat rack-no

As the Mothers See II.

Kansas City Star: A year ago there
were millions Of American mothers
who felt they simply could not see
their sons go to war. The idea was
intolerable to them. They sickened at
the thought of the separation and the
danger. Today there Is different
spirit. 1t does not make the home
leaving of the boys light and easy
thing. But 1t exalts and transfigures
the experience. The mother who
sends her son feels that through him
she is having share in the greatest
in human history. The
word duty" takes on q new mean.

They beckon me. they beckon me;
After the winters chill white Sleep
After the silence long and deep,
These Turing things, they beckon me.
The first anemone; the bee
Within the first anemone;
The gauzy frail ephemerae
Whose wings are like light gossamer;
The faint dawn Fittings of the fir;
The myrrh of minis; the azure blur
OF wild phlox bloom; May-apple leaves;
The swallows underneath the caves
Deft working at their masonry
These Turing things, they beckon me!
The water-spider where the cool
Wood rillet makes mirror pool;
The white birch bole whose satin sheen
Is glimpsed 'twixt tapestries of green
That sway like webs the fairies spin,
And let the sunlight filter in
Across the moss. Aye, everything
Interpreting the soul of spring
That kindles earth to ecstasy
These vital lures they beckon me.
They beckon me, they beckon me;
l am uplifted; | thrall
To the Great Will behind them all.
Oh lovely lures that beckon me!

GET READY FOR THE WINTER.

Des Moines Capital: Every family
in Iowa which can spare the money
should buy and store coal for the
coming winter. AS we understand it
no coal will be available except the
Iowa product. Many thousands Of
Iowa people have used Illinois and
Kentucky COAL But they must give
these up. Iowa coal will burn and
make good heat. 1t will keep the
fire in the furnace over night better
than any imported coal The people
of Iowa have the money. The coal
is in the ground. The miners need
the work. Therefore buy coal. Store
it out of the rain 1t will not be any
cheaper. We are not telling people
how to save money. We are telling
them how to have coal when winter
comes. We want to tell the people
also to take care OF the wood. There
is enough wood in Iowa to keep Iowa
warm. A part Of this surplus should
be prepared for next winter These
suggestions are prompted by patriot
ism and prudence.
