THE SUMMER SCHOOL

THE. SUMMER SCHOOL
When the large number Of young
some from other states, who attend
the University of Idaho during the
school year, leave. at the close of the
year, and a considerable number of
the faculty also HE themselves away
for the summer, 1t is natural that the
community should think that during
the summer months the university is
not much more than pile of brick
and mortar on the hill, topped by a
handsome gothic tower, and should
look forward to the arrival OF the
students again In the fall.
Because it is small by comparison,
the people do not realize the import
ance of the summer school to Mos
COW, when it is really an important
factor in the communities summer
business, with it's two hundred or
more students, who have come here
from all parts of the northwest, to
take advantage of the excellent facil-
tiles offered by the University of Ida
no, and secure instruction from the
capable corps of instructors, who
have specialized in the line of work
which these summer school students,
mostly teachers, are seeking. Dean
Messenger, of the school of education
at the university, and head of the sum-
mer school, has estimated that during
the nine weeks course, the students
who are here this summer will spend
with Moscow business houses from
1000 to $4,000, distributing this
with practically all lines of business
in the city.
The summer school is no small fac
tor in Moscow's summer business, and |
the community should in every way
possible lend support to the school
and aid in making the stay of the stu
dents, who are people with a high |
purpose in life, as pleasant as
possible

THOSE WAR-MADE MILLIONAIRES
A man who built ships for the gov
eminent a few years ago and was
supposed to have been piling up
wealth at an extraordinary rate killed
himself at Seattle yesterday. After
his body was found it was discovered
that he was absolutely destitute. He
was not, it may be, typical war con-
tractor, but great numbers of men who
helped the government in time of ne
cessity few years ago suffered much
as he did. The government cancelled
his contracts after he had put all his
money and credit into his work and
hen neglected to pay him what it
owed him. If we check up on the war
made millionaires we find that there
S widespread popular delusion about
he profits that were made. Not many
men who have dealings with the gov
in war or peace, find doing G
BUSINESS with it either profitable or
Neutrality-suspicious. Daily Republic
