rial schools fiOurished In many college
towns, putting II greater burden on IA
cilitles; several had their buildings
completely refurnished for training In
the mechanical or electrical trades.
The talk now is Of reconstruction. but
certainly the word had greater force
then. when plants were remodeled
almost overnight. and put to uses
never before conceived.
Besides these things which are fairly
well known, there are other Items no
less important. One of our greatest
medical institutions gave fifty men,
bers of Its staff to the army. and they
were occupied exclusively with medi-
cal research. Teachers in allied sub
jects. as chemistry and physics, were
also turned over to the government.
and It seemed as II the school had
become only memory.
One university In the far West was
so fOresighted as to give instruction
in the problems Of reconstruction and
another held lectures for soldier and
civilian alike. treating the wars prob
lens in simple way for those who
wished to understand and learn. All
this was in addition to becoming one
of the many armed camps into which
the colleges changed and education
us conceived of under ante beilum
schedules became almost nonentity
The womens colleges, too, Joined
their efforts. Besides war chests,
from which one well-known female
college drew $4,000. they maintained
ambulances in France, and sent driv-
ers for them. Beds In hospitals Of
France were endowed, and summer
training camps for nurses were es-
tablIshed. TO be ready against the time
when n scarcity should be felt. Vas
sar's farm unit showed that women
could till the soil and this organiza-
top was the forerunner Of the wom-
ans land army.
Furthermore, every college has a
record of which 1t can be proud, In
the various drives for funds. Local
activities, as entertaining soldiers on
leave, were fostered, and In many In
stances entire college buildings were
turned over to some welfare organize
tion.
To all this effort there is a reaction.

NEWSPAPER
POLITICALLY SCARED

The Carson City Appeal begins TO
see the handwriting on the wall" as
is evidenced by the following edi-
torial. printed recently:
Representatives of the Republican
national committee have recently
been visiting this State. and more are
coming. Their purpose. as an
nounced. is to perfect a complete or
SANITATION with the view OF putting
Nevada in the Republican column In
the elections to be held the coming
year.
That they are working not without
hone must be admitted; not because
Nevada has a surplus of Republicans,
for that is not the fact; but they have
the faculty or organizing and voting
as a unit. On the other hand. the
Democrats, while holding a fair ma
jority of the States total vote, are
unorganized, not altogether pleased
with the way things are and have
been going, and have lost interest.
Too much favoritism has been shown
in certain quarters and too little at
tention paid to the fellows. men and
women, who supply the votes. With
the condition existing, the rank and
file give scant heed to the party's cry
and have little interest in its sue
cess.
1t is up to the leaders to supply the
remedy and bring about cohesion.
Otherwise u old-time and ever-on-
the-alert enemy will soon again be
running public affairs.

CHINESE MERCHANT OF ELY
Is ROBBED BY H0LDUP MEN

Mar Young, a well-known Chinese
merchant, was robbed of $500 at his
shop in Ely's Chinatown on Wednes-
day evening about eight o'clock. Ac-
cording to Mar Young's story two
white men, wearing officers stars,
came into his place and told him that
they were government men in search
of bootleggers and that they nus
search his place for whisky. The
Chinaman made haste to open all the
secret places of his establishment to
the alleged officers, but before the
search was concluded n OF the
strangers pointed TO a small box and
demanded to know the contents.
Mar Young reluctantly admitted
that he had a little money in the box.
but the strangers ordered him to
"open up" and when their order was
obeyed they ~pocketed the contents.
some $500 in cash, and abruptly took
their departure. When Mar Young
had recovered from his fright he no.
titled the officers, but as the robbers
had faded away and he was able to
furnish no description except that 1t
was "a tall man and a short man"
who robbed him. the chances for re-
covery of his money seems doubtful

at is entirely right that any wo-
man should be allowed to make any
career for herself of which she is
capable, whether or not it is a career
followed by a man. She has the same
right to be a lawyer, a doctor, a

man has to be a poet, an explorer, a
politician, or a painter. There are
women whose peculiar circumstances

it advisable that they should follow
