18th Division in Lorraine. lie was
hut secretary on this sector for two
months, being in charge Of hut about
four miles back from the front line
trenches.
He went over the Chateau-Thierry
battle field about six or eight days af-
ter the struggle. The dead had just
been buried. with a regiment or light
artillery he went 10 the Veslc river, as
the American troops were pushing the
Germans back 20 the Mouse. In this
drive Professor Spiker was frequently
under shell fire. lie remained with the
troops until the Germans were driven
beyond the Aisne river, at which time
the division was Withdrawn TO another
front.
Then he was transferred to the
French army for educational work
where he was placed in charge Of the
English instruction in the French ar
tillery school, meeting the most capa-
BILE and best trained soldiers in France.
A nephew Of General Joffre was in
Professor Spiker's class. He was with
the French army in this capacity for
about five months.
Owing 10 an attack Of the influenza,
IL became necessary for Professor
Spiker 20 be furloughed home. He is
on his way now 70 join Mrs. Spiker
whose home is near the University Of
West Virginia. Yesterday morning in
chapel Professor Spiker gave a brief
and interesting account Of his eXper-

What would Washington, with his doc
trine of entangling alliances, have done
about the present league of nations?
The proponents Of the league believe he
would have accepted it gladly Rcvolu-
tionary war politics, they assume, are
out Of date, anyway. Thus in the opin-
ion Of one:
"lf Washington alive to-day, would
he favor Il league Of nations?
"Uistory tells US that both he and Lin
coin we're pretty strong on the idea Of
unity Of power in maintaining peace"
Says another from Illinois:
"Prcsent-day transportation facilities
modern machinery and international com
mcrce have brought about such radical
changes in the world situation since Wash
ington's time that there can be but little
doubt that Warrington, were he alive to-
day, would be the most enthusiastic sun.

were struggling little nation, and Instincts
