liam Walker, 49-year-old lineman,
ran mile over rough track in seven
minutes to save the train.
Walker was working on the line

point in 10 minutes. 1t was nearly
a mile to the nearest signal box.
He was SO exhausted when he
reached the signal box that he could
only make signs to the signalman
to pull the signal lever.
Then he grabbed red flag and
stood there waving it as the train

Old Method Teaches
Calves How to Drink

One Of the jobs requiring an
oversupply of patience on the
dairy farm is that of teaching
young calves to drink from the
pail.
In teaching the calf to drink,
tried and true method is to strad-
die the Calls neck, insert two fin
gers in his mouth and lower the
head into the milk pail after he
is sucking on the fingers. The fin
gers may be gently removed after
the calf starts taking milk. Re-
peat the process as many times
as is necessary for the calf to
continue drinking from the pail.
1t may require many or a few
such treatments before the calf
will drink freely from a pail.
If nipple pals are used great
care must be exercised to see
that they are thoroughly cleaned
and sterilized.

Summer Terms to Open
To Permit Completion
In IN Years

George washington University an
nounced today that, because OF the
war, its educational program is be-
ing concentrated so that students
can complete the regular four-year
course in approximately two and &
half years.
The result will be gained by inten-
sification of the summer school
course, 50 that it will be possible to
earn a degree by attending two full
years and three summer sessions.
In this way high school students
graduating in June could earn their
degrees by the close of the summer
session in 1914. Students will at
tend two six-week terms during the
summer, replacing the former nine
week terms.
Begins June ~.
The first summer session will be-
gin on June ~ and the second on
August 6, concluding on September
l8. Glass periods during these
terms will be so minutes in length.
The establishment Of the summer
terms also will permit junior college
students to earn their certificates in
q shorter period. Two summers and
one full-year session will be the
equivalent OF the normal two-year
course
AL students entering the school
OF medicine will be required to start
classes on June 8, instead of Sep
tember a.. Students in medical
schools, all of whom receive selec-
tive service deferments pending the
completion OF their education, will
be graduated In two and two-thirds
years.
Two Years for Law School.
The law school course can be fin
ished, under the new system, in two
years instead Of the usual three
BY concentrating the prelegal work
it will be possible during the war
emergency to complete both pre-
legal and legal work In four years
instead Of seven.
The school Of engineering will
operate on the two-term basis also
during the summer. At the same
time 1t was announced that the uni
versity would give q number Of spe-
cial courses next semester, fitting
into defense work.
Special arrangements are being
made for students who are called
