Generals Attitude Toward
Military Training In Amer
ica Makes Impression On
Pacific Coast.

Seattle, Wash, Feb. l6.-(Spe-
cial9-The question of military
preparedness was discussed at con.
siderable length by General Perish
ing on his recent visit to the Pacific
coast aud what he said on the sub
ject in this and other cities made
profound impression on the minds
of those who heard him.
Under the head, "Safety-Without
Militarism," the Seattle Daily Times
has this to say editofially about
General Pershing' views on the sub
ject of military training:
General Pershing's views on the
subject of military training are one
with the. views of all other friends
of adequate preparedness.
THE first soldier of the land inn
pressed upon his Seattle audiences
the fact that he Is as vigorous Il
Joe as any other militarist.
Heed Defense Necessity
But, he solemnly counscled AL
the audiences he addressed in this
city to take heed to the necessity
tor adequate national defenSc
through the training of Americas
young manhood in the practice of
arms.
Preparedness was the basic theme
of all of Pershing's speeches in this
city!
He was Intensely in earnest in
his discussion of the matter. He il
Illustrated his belief in the necessity
for action by crisp observations con-
corning the unpreparedness of the
country at the time of the break
with Germany, frequently alludinS
to the fact that another crisis plight
not see Americas shores safe
guarded against foreign foe by al
lies previously in the field and man
fully resisting while the United
States prepared.
Time after time, the general fer
vently expressed his hope that the
republic would not again be visited
by war, but every such hope was
followed by the solemn declaration
that no man, today can say when war
will come or how close it may be.
Pride in the Army.
= "The pride he expressed in the
army he had the honor ocommand
overseas was mingled with deter
mination that, if he could prevent,
another army of equally splendid
young Americans should not be call
ed upon to face, equally unprepared,
responsibilities of so grave a nature.
Defense - without militarism.
Such is Pershing's program! Such
IS, the program of every patriotic
Americanl
That end never can be achieved
through large regular army.
1T can be effected i'll but one
way--the way indicated by PERISH
ing and by others as devoted as he
to the republics every interest--by
universal military trainingl"

Omaha Boy Scouts Will

Omaha Boy Scouts will be farm
crs this summer during their stay

Gil has recently purchased two
horses and a wagon, and will till
the fertile soil adjoining the camp,
under the direction of Otis E.
Smith, camp director. -
1t is the plan of the camp COM
nittee to raise garden truck such
as peas, beans, lettuce, radishes and
such vegetables as can be used to
advantage to furnish grub" for the

Omaha Man Concert Master
Of Minneapolis Orchestra

Guy Woodard, who is the con-
cert master of the Minneapolis
Symphoney orchestra, is a former
resident of Omaha. He began his
musical studies here, studying for
many years with the late DR..
Charles Baetens, and with his uncle,
Mr.. Herbert Butler, who is now
prominent violinist of Chicago. Mr..
Woodard displayed such unusual
talent that he rapidly won recogni-
ton in his chosen field, and before
his engagement with the Minneap-
oils Symphony orchestra he. held
many similar positions in other or
chestras with great success.
Many people wonder what a con-
cert master Of an orchestra is. The
concert master is next in importance
to the conductor. He is in fact, a
sort of lieutenant. Just as the string
band is the most important section
of the orchestra, the concert mas
ter is the most important player
among the strings. He is the first

must take the initiative in alf the
entrances, and much of the shad-
ing, the time, and expression of the
music is gagged by him To him
falls the solo work in the first vio-
lin section.
He must be constantly alert, and
concentrated upon the music, as he
is the most valuable support of the
conductor. A great deal of the re-
sponsibility for the success of the
interpretations rests upon him. This
position requires a fine musician,
dependable and keenly
artistic, quick to understand and to

President of Wesleyan Univer-
sity Says College Men
Must Lead Voters.

THE stay-at-home. voter is un-
grateful for the privileges and

serted John w. Hoffman, president

during talk last night at the Black

The Ohio educator is on a tour
which will take him to the Pacific
coast. He is meeting former STU

ing college men generally to take
more interest in public affairs. Rev.

brains in social and political move
ments in such definite ways as
speaking and direct service, not
necessarily to hold public office.
College men are not agitators; they
are not taking enough interest in
public affairs. In six city campaigns
which / have analyzed I found that
the leadership was not in the college
men,
On the question of present unrest,
he said:

persuasive methods. | have no SYM

can't kill the philosophy by killing

people will have to set about the
establishment of justice and equity

We must recognize that the country
is made sup not of one group. but
of many groups,-labor, capital and
the public must be reckoned with
in all the adjustments we make"
President Hoffman explained that
he is endeavoring to have estab-
lished in his university chair OF
Americanism in which shall be TO-
cused the best features of sociology
