Student Life Dwindled.

Outlining the services rendered by
men of the forty colleges Of Oxfor6
and Cambridge, the master writes that
owing to the esponse for war service,
the student life "dwindled to a thread"
He adds that "the Importance OF the
response Of these two older universe
ties was that 1t filled up the gap be-
tween the destruction of the old regu-
lar army in the fighting of August and
September Of 1914 and the coming for

In the spring OF 1915. This immediate
response to the call of the country and
the personal courage and devotion Of
these young men were a complete and
decisive answer to any class JEALOUSY

made to bear the brunt.
"We doubted how many OF the men

the master. I'VE are finding that prac-

average OF one and two-thirds years.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-The great

liol college, oxford. New schools are
being opened at oxford and plans for
greater efficiency are being put into
