Cadet Equipment
Improved Greatly

Arrangements are being made
whereby the Cadets this year will
have new equipment. The old guns,
belts. and bayonets will be turned
in to the War Department which in
return will issue Springfields. Webb
belts, and modern bayonets- To
get this equipment the schools will
have to forfeit the money to make
UP for the equipment which has
been lost in previous years.
This year each man will be per
sonally responsible for the equipment
issued him. 1t will be used by him
self and no ono else. Any abuse to
the rifle will have to be made good
financially. Each mans gun will
be his pride, and his goal will be
to have the best looking gun. In
like manner. the other equipment
will have to be cared for. and If
a belt Ii lost there will be some def
mite person to account for it

Revise Plan for
College Exams
Upon Entrance

A new plan OF examination has
been introduced for admission to
the colleges and universities in the
United States. Generally sum
married. under the old plan It is
necessary that a candidate for one
Of these institutions should have
fifteen credits assured by a GER
tificate of graduation from the high
school which he attended and. in
addition, should have passed with
satisfactory marks examinations in
the five subjects chosen by the
college as its requirements for ad-
mission.
English, a foreign language, his
tory. mathematics, and q science
are the subjects chosen by the
average college. These tests are
given by the college entrance e1-
animation board In Juno In all the
large cities OF the country. The
same tests are also given In the
various colleges in September. Any
one making unsatisfactory grades
In any Of these subjects has per-
mission to make 1t up or do extra
work In college later.
NEW PLAN SIMPLE.
The new plan seems to be more
simple but fully as adequate. A can
didate for admission IL required
to present a certificate from q high
school. the principals approval of
his character. and a statement of
his general ability. -Four exams
are then given him, which COM
prise in most colleges a selection
Of English or history, mathematics,
chemistry, or physics, foreign
languages, and fourth subject
chosen by the applicant with the
approval OF the board Of admis-
sion. These examinations are held
in June by the board and in Sep
TENDER by the respective schools.
Failure to make a sufficiently high
grade at these examinations neces-
states the candidates taking the
old plan tests in September or the
new plan again the following June.
This, of course, is merely gen.
eralization of the admission require
ments of the more important col
leges and universities. Each high
school student with a cillege career
ahead of him should look up the
requirements of his own prospective
college or diversity and shape his
high school course to meet them.
