is conducting a publicity campaign for
the sale of War Savings Stamps that
the public may be awakened to the
task before it. The opportunity every

and the same time help win the war
is to be forced home The government
has asked this paper with the Others of

done. Addison County has yet to fail

What The Kaiser Forgot

(From Rutland Herald, Friday, June IA, 1879
1t would take columns to tell what
the Kaiser remembered in getting ready
for this war-all the items of military
equipment, storerooms of information
collected by his spies, order forms in
blank for the destruction of Belgian
cities, etc,-but there is one thing the
Kaiser forgot He thought it was per-
fectly safe to risk the coming of the
United States into the war because he
believed we could not raise an effec-
tive army in time,
He knew we had the men and that
we could make the munitions, but he
knew further that men and munitions
without competent trained officers are
not an army but mob, and the Kaiser
was sure we did not have the officers
and could not get them.
What the Kaiser forgot was the
American college boy. Probably he
did not know much about him. He
had seen the American postgraduate
in his German Universities, the book
worm, the scientist, the artist, the writ
er, the jurist the scholar type, but the
American undergraduate that goes to
football matches, baseball games, ath-
letic events of all kinds who lives
largely in the outdoors and yet keeps
up his studies-this type the Kaiser
knew nothing about.
General Wood knew him and saw
in him the best kind of officer mater
ial The intensive training camps
made up almost entirely of college men,
are turning out efficient officers as fast
as we need them and the Kaiser is like
" to find that the one thing he forgot
was fatal to his schemes.
This nation owes an incalculable debt
to its colleges for their supply of the
men who lead its armies and such an
appeal as that of President Thomas OF
Middlebury College for a comparative
ly small sum which will keep his col
lege out of financial trouble during the
war ought to meet with generous re-
spouse on the part of the people OF
Vermont. He has only two weeks re-
naming in which to secure subscrip-
tons of about $4,000 which will bring
to Middlebury fund of 100000 and
there ought to be no doubt of his sue
cess. ......A..nka
