Here Is the proper spirit:-In con-
versation with one of our business men
the other day he said, III am in the
game to the finish, aud will even neg
lect my business for the next few
weeks in order to work and help give
the boys rousing time"
That's exactly what the Caledonian
Association is aiming to do, and if all
our citizens will join in the movement,
there isn't the shadow of doubt but
what the boys will get fine reception.
That is the main thing the committees
are working for.
1t was expected that the program for
the two big days would be ready for
publication this week, but two or three
small details are lacking. 1t will be
completed by the first of next week.
Some of the events we are sure of
are as follows
Thursday, July 3rd, the attractions
are Henderson's Kiltie Lads and Las
sizes in pipe band selections, national
and fancy dances, refined singing spec
ialties and Scotch comedy hits; Sam
Munro, Cansdas juvenile Harry Laud-
er; Alice Dunbar, comedy entertainer;
an address Of welcome to our soldier
and sailor boys by Alfred Martin, pas.
tor of the Presbyterian church; an ad-
dress by Rey. Ralph Nj. Crissman, of
Port Huron; planes from Selfridge
Field; music by the Yale Cornet Band;
long list of athletic games and a real
fast base ball game.
Friday, July 4th will be continue
ton of above excellent program with
a couple of changes The speakers of
the day are Gov. A. h. Sleeper and an
other gentleman the committee is max
ing arrangements with. 1t is possible
that the planes will not be here on this
day, but they will be on the first day,
weather permitting.
The above doings take place in the
city park and the admission each day
is adults 35c; children Csc; Soldiers and
Sailors FREE to everything in the way
of amusement and entertainment, both
at the park and up town.
Invitations are being sent to the
soldier and sailor boys this week and
already u number of replies have been
received aud in every instance the an
swer has been the same;-"I will be in
Yale for the Homecoming Celebra-
ton" Remember, if YOUR boy doesn't
receive al Invitation it's because the
committee doesn't know his address.
Send it in at once.
Next week over 1000 invitations will
be sent to former Yale people inviting
them to come back and help us honor
our boys.
In the way of added attractions the
Princess Theatre will show good at
fractions both afternoons and evenings
and Manager Barr is planning on big
dance at the Auditorium for both of
the nights
Surely this will be entertainment for
anyone, and we want you all to plan
on coming to Yale on July Bird and 4th
and help make it record breaker.

PRESIDENT URGES RAISING
MONEY FOR NEAR EAST

In response to a cablegram from
Cleveland Dodge, treasurer of the Ar
menian- Syrian Relief fund, regarding
his request to congress for 100000
coo for European relief, President
Wilson last week sent the following
reply:
Government Presidents Residence.
Paris Cleveland Fl. Dodge: The ap-
preparation asked of congress for
handling food relief is not intended in
anyway to take the place of the sub
scription being asked for relief and
rehabilitation in the Near East. l
hope that this subscription will not
in any way be interrupted or reduced
The need is immediate and very great.
(Signed.) Woodrow WILSON,
Herbert Hoover. United States Food
Administrator. who is also on the
ground. sent the following d1spatch:
"The world relief program now be-
ing developed by the United States
and the allies contemplates that when
ever possible relief work will be fin
anced by the countries affected thru
the medium of loans or other govern
ment assistance. Nevertheless, dis
tress and suffering exist in many areas
where payment for relief supplies can
not be made. These charity cases Will
still urgently need private benevol-
ence. This is the situation with re-
gard to the Armenians. Syrians and
Persians.
There is probably no greater suf-
fering today than among the perse-
cuted people of Asia Minor who have
no funds and can not secure govern
ment loans and have no other credit.
II is to aid this distressing situation
that your committee for Armenian
and Syrian relief is making its ap-
peal to the generosity of the Ameri-
can people. With your financing ac-
complished. your committee represent
ing these stricken can come under the
direction of the new Interallied World
Relief organization and will receive its
cooperation in the purchasing and
shipment of supplies.
arrangements are now being made
to assign one complete flour cargo
enroute for Southern Europe to the
order of your committee and further
supplies will shortly be allotted to
YOU by the Interallied Committee as
soon as We are assured that the neces-
sary finances have been provided.

In Cuba He clearly discerned the
danger to our country IL Germany
was successful In her contest with
the allies. and urged that the United
States throw the weight OF her power
into balance long before we actually
entered the conflict Who can say
that America and the world would
net have profited had his advice been
followed.
When war with Germany was ac-
tually upon us Col Roosevelt was
among the first to offer his services
TO his country. He wanted no desk
at Washington, but begged to be as
signed to our combat forces overseas.
Not only did he tender his own life
TO his country but he organized an
entire brigade OF men outside of draf,
age eager TO follow him into the
thick of the fight The fac, that his
proffer was not accepted by those in
power at Washington does not detract
In the least degree from the patriot
ism and sacrifices that inspired him
In making it.
But although unable to go to
Europe himself Col Roosevelt was
quick to give his enthusiastic assent
to his four sons engaging in the fight.
One OF them met tragic death at the
hands of the enemy. and the Others
have received wounds that testify to
their personal daring. His grief over
their sufferings was intensified by the
thought that he was not permitted 20
share their dangers. Although Col.
Roosevelt did not don uniform II is
