Messages from President Wilson and War Department Officials are beingread. Below, a view of officers and men to be inducted, facing platform.University of ChicagoMagazineVolume XI NOVEMBER, 1918 No. 1Events and DiscussionThe outstanding development of theUniversity this fall is the formation of aunit of the Students'The Army Training Corps,S. A. T. C. usually referred to asat the S. A. T. C. ThisChicago corps, which fairlycredible rumor declares to have originated in the brain ofCharles Riborg Mann, formerly professorof physics here, but now in governmentservice in Washington, has organized unitsat more than four hundred colleges andnuiversities in the country.Every member of the S. A. T. C. lives inbarracks, is paid $30 a month by the government, and is under military disciplinetwenty-four hours a day, like all other privates. In addition, his tuition is paid by thegovernment and he must spend at leastfourteen hours a week in the classroom orlaboratory (two hours of laboratory workcounting for one of classroom work). Atirregular intervals the government assignsselected men elsewhere — the best to officers' training camps; others to vocationalemployment, to noncommissioned officers'schools, or as privates in cantonments.The choice will be made on the basis ofattainment or lack of it, in both militaryand academic work.Any man in class lA in the September 12draft is eligible if he has a high school education or its equivalent. Chicago's quotawas thirteen hundred in the army and twohundred in the navy. These figures havenot been reached. Exactly how many menthere are in each branch has not yet beenofficially given out. Popular estimate saysabout eleven hundred in one and 125 in theother. The enormous machine was bound tostart with a creak, and there have beenmany hitches. Some men practicallywasted October in their efforts to get inducted. The class schedule has been verydifficult to adjust. Conflict between military requirements and class reuqirementscould not altogether be avoided, especiallywith the rest of the University continuinguninterrupted. Some gems of phrase havecirculated, as for example the remark ofone lieutenant to a boy who asked for tenminutes to consult his dean: "To h — 1 withyour dean; the army is your dean now."But on the whole the work, both militaryand academic, has been amazingly efficient.Of alumni killed in action, the deaths oftwo particularly have attracted wide attention — 1st Lieuten-Shull and ant Laurens Shull ofGoettler the 26th Division, themost famous in thearmy because of its position at ChateauThierry, and Captain Harold Goettler ofthe air service. Shull died from wounds inAugust, Goettler was killed in Octoberwhile relieving the besieged American company that was surrounded and besieged inthe Argonne, and was subsequently rescued. Shull and Goettler were the well-known all-western tackles on the 1914football team. Many a time they headedattacks together on the football field. Indeath they are not divided.Since the foregoing was written the following communication has come from theWar Department:"The Distinguished Service Cross hasbeen posthumously given to LieutenantTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINELaurens C. Shull for extraordinary heroism. Near Soissons, France, July 19, 1918,he led his platoon with brilliant couragein two attacks and was badly wounded ina third when, with equal vigor, he advancedagainst a machine gun nest."To which may be added a word fromone of Shull's letters, dated June 30. "Idon't want to be buried in a cemetery overhere. I hope they put me somewhere allalone. The Hun artillery fires on the graveyards because he fancies we use the crossesfor observation posts or the like. But Idon't see the use in being buried and un-buried and then buried and unburied again.Put me by my lonesome in some oldtrench."Among the University women the striking novelty is the W. S. T. C, or Women'sStudents' T r a i ningThe W. S. T. C. Corps. This organization (a notice ofwhich is given elsewhere in this number),the plan of Dean Elizabeth Wallace, is nota government, but a Chicago scheme. Ithas attracted wide attention, and will bewidely imitated. Every woman student iseligible, and more than 600 have joined. Auniform (not required) has been adopted,and the women drill under the direction ofthe army officers in charge of the S. A. T.C. The drill feature is, however, altogethersecondary to the service and vocationalfeatures.As alumni know, president Judson isnow in Persia at the head of a commissionto provide for thatDean Angell stricken country. HeNow left in midsummer andActing is expected to returnPresident at Christmas time.Meanwhile, the actingpresident is Dean James R. Angell, whoin the old and sacred phrase has perfomedthe duties of his office in a fashion to winthe admiration of all; indeed, even betterthan that.The class-schedule has undergone and isundergoing some amazing alterations. Atpresent it stands as follows (on November1):8:00-N:55, !l :05-10 :<)(), 10:10-1 1 :0r>, 11:15- 11:50, (chapel hours), 11:50-12:45, 12:55-1:50, 2:00-2:55, 3:05-4:00, 4:10-5:05. Notethe early beginning, the ten minutes of freetime between class-periods, the fact that theschedule is continuous, classes being heldat every hour,The Class and the late clos-Schedule ing. At presentthe drill-hours ofthe A. A. T. C. are from 10:00-12:00, nomembers of that organization, except pre-medical students being registered for anyclass work between 10 and 1. A furtherchange is proposed, however, for A. O. T.C. men, which would leave them all freefor recreation from 12:45 to 2:30. The reason for this lies in the fact that in Octoberit was found the boys had no free time alltogether except from 5:05 to 5:30 (retreat).What this did to organized sports may beimagined; and the army insists on organized sports. Hereafter Mr. Stagg will drillthe football squad between 1:00 and 2:30,so it is said; though how mess is to bemanaged deponent sayeth not. The reason for the original change was the necessity of getting class-rooms, which had become at some hours practically unprovid-able.THE COMMISSION OF RELIEF INBELGIUMGive Your Worn Clothing to the NeedySeveral million men and women in theoccupied territory of Belgium and Northern France are in dire need of clothing.They are now making garments from oldsheets, tablecloths, and sacking, and eventhese materials are almost exhausted. Theyhave no resources; and if they had, thereare no stocks of clothing to be bought.The>' need proper clothing as a measure ofdecency and as a protection against theweather and against disease. The Commission for Relief in Belgium asks vourco-operation in the. task of protecting thesedestitute sufferers and will forward in itscargo ships such articles of civilian clothing as you are willing to give. Every kindof garment is most urgently needed. Ifyou are willing to help the people of Belgium and northern France in this way,send your spare clothing to the above-named committee at 101 New Jersey Railroad avenue, Newark, N. J.AND DISCUSSION 7V||1|'IH'liM"|liB'!|T^V ',|'1'11 ''K iiNflWfiYMCAIn the late spring of 1917, the AmericanY. M. C. A. in France consisted of a diminutive tent on a dock in a certain Frenchbase port and a handful of secretaries. Inthis tent the secretaries were waiting forthe first American troops when theylanded, greeting them with a phonograph,writing material, some "eats" of a nondescript character, a genuine hospitality andsuch other facilities as could be hastilygotten together and transported to the seaboard from Paris.Today the American Y. M. C. A. has approximately 2,500 workers, about 300 ofthem women, serving American and Frenchsoldiers in almost 1,200 different centersthroughout France. The familiar Red Triangle holds out its invitation to black andwhite, Catholic, Protestant, Jew or unbeliever — to hundreds of thousands of men —in the base ports, in the training and concentration camps, the billeting villages, theshellfire zone and even in the trenchesthemselves. No group of soldiers any place"over there" has to look far for a "Y" hut.In addition to its usual activities maintained for the men, the American Y. M. C.A. has been called upon to manage the entire post exchange system for the American Expeditionary Forces. This is thehugest single phase of all the Association'shuge work. Gross sales in the post exchanges are expected to amount to $75,000,-000 a year. Every month three to fourthousand tons of post exchange supplies— the maximum amount for which shippingspace can be secured — go from America toFrance to stock the six hundred exchanges.Additional supplies are purchased in Franceand in England, and because of the enormous quantities consumed, the Y. M. C. A.has taken over eight factories in France.The entire facilities of all are required, fivefor making chocolate for the post exchanges, the other three for biscuits andcookies. Sugar for the chocolate has tocome from the United States, but theFrench are able to provide the raw chocolate. Certain of the raw materials for thebiscuits and cookies also are furnishedfrom this country To Establish Khaki CollegeThe most recent — and perhaps most significant — development in the work inFrance is the founding of a "Khaki College." This is a sort of transplanted publicschool system, which is to reach every partof the army.The Khaki College will enable the mento take advantage of their period of servicefor intellectual betterment. Courses fromthe most elemental to the most advancedwill be available for all applying, each soldier according to his qualifications andmental equipment. While the men are being made good soldiers, they will simultaneously be given opportunity to study tobe better doctors, lawyers, clerks, accountants, chemists and so on on down the listof vocations and avocations.The Khaki College will be maintained inaddition to — and eventually probably to replace — the present informal, but comprehensive, educational activities. This informal educational work is designed to giveemergency training in order that deficiencies of education detrimental to militaryefficiency may be corrected. Thus the illiterate and the foreign-born are taught toread and write English. French for conversational and military use is taught theenlisted men from the most elementary tothe advanced lessons. Classes in automobile repairing and the like have been established where the need was manifested. TheKhaki College will include, enlarge on andcoordinate all this work. Its field of greatest usefulness will, of course, come in thedemobilization period after the war, duringthe two years that all estimates fix as theminimum time for the complete demobilization of the American troops in Franceand their return to this country.In its war work, the Y. M. C. A. programis fundamentally threefold. Back of theathletics, the "movies," the post exchanges,the reading and religious services is thefundamental philosophy of ministering toall of a man. In this comprehensivenessis undoubtedly found the reason why theY. M. C. A. work appeals to practically allmen.Here's YOUR ChanceTo cheer and comfort oursoldiersUNITED WAR WORKCAMPAIGNNovember 11-18, 1918.Do the best you can !THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEThe S. A. T. C. at The University of ChicagoThe first public assembly of the StudentArmy Training Corps at the University ofChicago was held on October 1 at 11 o'clockat the flagpole in the central quadrangle,when the students took the oath of allegiance to "the flag and the Republic forwhich it stands." This impressive ceremony of saluting the flag and swearingallegiance, two views of which are presented in the frontispiece of this issue, occurred at the same time with similar ceremonies at all institutions throughout the countryhaving a Student Army Training Corps.Dean James R. Angell, vice-president ofthe University, in the absence of PresidentHarry Pratt Judson, addressed the corps,and significant messages from the President of the United States and the ActingSecretary of War were read by MajorHenry S. Wygant, commanding officer.The Student Army Training Corps atthe University of Chicago is limited to1,500 students, of whom 200 may be members of the Naval Unit. Up to October 1,1,745 applications had been received for enrolment in this service. Of this number,1,100 have already been examined. Of thetotal number of applicants, 523 are formerstudents of the University and 1,222 arenew students.Barracks have been built in the concretegrandstand of Stagg Field, which will accommodate about 500 men. The remaining soldiers of the unit are housed inthe former men's dormitories, and in adjacent fraternity houses.Major Ripley L. Dana, U. S. A., was appointed commanding officer of the S. A.T. C. at the University of Chicago onOctober 14, Major Wygant, commanding officer, having been transferred totransferred to the charge of Inspector ofthe Central Division of the S. A. T. C. Major Dana was graduated from Bodoin College in 1901. He obtained a law degree atHarvard University Law School in 1904,and practiced law in Boston from 1904 to1917. In 1915-16 he attended the businessmen's camp at Plattsburg, then under thecharge of Major General Wood. In 1917Major Dana entered the Plattsburg Officers'Training Camp, where he was commissioned captain of infantry and appointed tothe 304th Infantry at Camp Devens, Massachusetts. From November, 1917, to May,1918, he served as commander of severalU. S. Army training detachments at Kingston, R. I. In August, 1918, he was commissioned major.Up to August 28, approximately 400 menhave been trained at the shops of the University High School in machine work, carpenter work, sheet metal work, and automobile repairing. One large building andthree houses are now in use for housingthe men, who mess in Hutchinson Cafe atthe University.These men are now in Group B, Industrial Training Section, of the S. A. T. C. The men who have gone, into servicehave been detailed to Camp Jessup inGeorgia, the American University in Washington, and to an engineering unit inFrance. Reports from Washington indicate that the army officers in charge areespecially well pleased with the characterof the training the men have received atthe University of Chicago.The W. S. T. C.More than seven hundred women at theUniversity of Chicago, who desire to havea definite and practical share in winning thewar, took the pledge of allegiance to theflag as members of the Woman StudentTraining Corps on the evening of October11, when Vice-President James R. Angell,Dean Elizabeth Wallace and Major HenryS. Wygant made addresses. Following thismeeting in Leon Mandel Assembly Hall,a less formal meeting was held in IdaNoyes Hall, where the names of the newofficers of the corps were announced.One of the chief purposes of the organization also is social and philanthropicwork in connection with the war. Militarydrill will be required of all members whoare physically able to take it. Nineteencommissioned officers have been appointedto take charge of this part of the work,which will be under the general supervision of the department of physical education in co-operation with the commandingofficer of the Student Army Training Corps.At the meeting in Ida Noyes Hall, MissCronin, head of the department of PhysicalEducation, explained the military side ofthe W. S. T. C. Drill is held every day except Friday at 11:50. These officers havebeen appointed by a committee consistingof Major Dana, Miss Cronin, Dean Flintand Dean Wallace, who selected them forqualities of leadership, physical ability andhigh scholarship.Those appointed are as follows: EleanorAtkins, Lyssa Chalkley, Pauline Davis, MayFreedman, Kathleen Grant, Frances Henderson, Dorothy Lardner, Marjorie Leopold, Marion Meanor, Sarah Mulroy, Mildred Powilson, Phyllis Palmer, LillianRichards, Lillian Reynolds, Arline Falke-nau, Carol Smith, Helen Sulzberger, Marjorie Winslow, and Enid Towneley.The pledge of the organization is as follows:As a member of the Woman Student TrainingCorps I promise: (1) That while in college I willprepare myself definitely for some essential occupation whereby I may serve my country efficiently inmy own home or elsewhere. (2) That after leavingcollege and during the major portion of long vacations, I will practice an essential occupation systematically for the duration of the war. (3)Furthermore, I pledge myself to support the President of the United States, to honor the flag, and touphold by my acts and influence, in all business andsocial relations, the best ideals of American womanhood. As a loyal member of the University of Chicago I hereby pledge my faith.9First Lieutenant Laurens C. Shull, '16, U. S.A., died August 5, 1918. of wounds receivedin action.

Physicallywe have such an article, but undergradu-ately speaking, the "campus" is not. It hasbeen loaned to the United States, and thatorganization has promptly turned it over tothe Student Army Training Corps.Consequently student activities, as usual,are quite feeble. Clubs and leagues have anunusual feminine touch and this touch, too,is becoming warlike, so to speak. Exceptions must be made in the case of fraternities and Varsity teams, naturally. Fraternities are not what they used to be, butthey are still in existence. Their houses,if owned, have been rented to the government, and, in some cases, rooms have beenrented near the campus to replace formermeeting places. But in the majority, localchapters have been observing the nationalrequest to temporarily cease. Little rushing took place after October 1. With buttwo exceptions, Sigma Uni and Phi KappaPsi, fraternity pledgings were below normal, as the approximate total of 115 againstlast year's 158 (then considered a "dull season") shows.The Daily Maroon continues business asusual, but with a staff mainly composed ofwomen editors. Ruth Genzberger, as NewsEditor, is carrying the burden of editorialwork. Charles Green. '19, was to have returned as Managing Editor, but as he isnow a second lieutenant in Uncle Sam'sservice, the position fell to John Joseph,'20. Grant Mears, '20, and May Freedman,'20, are running the business end.Other student publications have not beenas fortunate as the Maroon. The Chicagoan,last year's merger of the Green Cap, and theLiterary Monthly, has not appeared. TheCap and Goivn editorships have been thrownopen to all classes. Joseph Eaton, '20, andJames Mulroy, '20, hold the positions ofeditor-in-chief and business manager, respectively.A new and quite important activity isthe Woman Students' Training Corps. Thisorganization was the result of plans madeby senior women. More than 800 namescomprise the present roll. The W. S. T. C.is under the Students' War Activities Committee, which js headed by Miss Wallaceand Katherine Frost, '19.Influenza hit the campus, as it did everywhere, but serious results were low. Still-man Jamison, '21, died from the disease;outside of that casualty no others havebeen reported so far. Health bulletins andthe elimination of unnecessary gatherings(classes excluded) seemed successful pre ventatives. But campus activities weredulled considerably.The University Y. M. C. A. has beencombined with the army Y. M. C. A., whichnow occupies quarters on the second floorof the Reynolds Club. Clarence Brown,'19, still continues as Business Secretary,while Elbert G. Stevens, who has been inFrance, is the Activity Secretary. "C"books were issued.Other organizations still alive are theThree Quarters Club, the Dramatic Club,the Honor Commission, the Undergraduate Council, the W. A. A. and the Y. W. C.L. But they are all, especially those inwhich men participate, but slightly active.No. decidedly, the "campus" Autumn, 1918,is something the likes of which we havenever seen before; neither "campus'' norwar camp, but a mixture of both — a mixture, however, that reveals a fine spirit ofloyalty and patriotism.John Joseph, '20.Charles J.

M. hut No. 1 greeted the musical number presented there upon Thursday evening. The feature of the eveningwas the work of the University quartet,which might more appropriately be called'The Comedy Four.' The quartet is composed of men from Base Hospital 13 andthe crowd was for them from the first.Every member of the quartet is an artistin his line and the duets, monologues, andcomedy songs they gave kept the house ina constant burst of applause. Their entirerepertoire exhausted, they repeated manyof their best hits and left the stage amiaa roar of applause."11AthleticsThe story of the football team up toNovember 1 is fifty-fifty tragic and amusing. Mr. Stagg, after a fine period ofspring practice, got the men together Sept.18 and worked them steadily for two weeks.In that time he showed the makings of agood eleven. As soon as college began,the lack of a general recreation hour maderegular practice impossible. One gamewas played, however, with the team fromthe Municipal Pier and the team, althoughragged and defeated 14-7 by an experiencedand much heavier aggregation, showedsomething. And the next day Cole, quarterback, Crisler, half, Hutchinson, half,Hinkle and McDonald, tackles, and Dygert,sub-fullback, were all sent to officers'training camps, five of them to Waco,Texas, where with Westby of the gymteam they now make up the camp eleven.Such a slaughter of the innocents has beenunparalleled anywhere. It left only onegood man in the backfield, Captain Elton.However, as freshmen can play this fall,Stagg took up the job a second time.Then for two weeks he faced the situationof having no time when all the men couldpractice together. The influenza luckilyprevented any games; for there were practically no group of eleven men who allknew the signals and had practiced together. Finally, late in October, a gamewas played with Loyola Academy; andStagg, Jr., the only remaining quarterback,Neff, the best halfback, and Swenson, oneof three good linemen, were all knocked out.Stagg, Jr., got a broken collar-bone, whichwill keep him out for the season; the othertwo will resume activities later.At present the lineup includes Reber,center, the sub center last year; Miller,Grey, Swenson and Kaspers, guards; allfreshmen and none remarkable; Stegeman(brother of H. J. Stegeman) and McGuire,a freshman, tackles, about average; Schwaband Halladay, freshmen, ends, neither oneeither experienced or very promising;Smith, Mills and Tays, quarterbacks, allfreshmen, all recent acquisistions, and noneof them ever having played the position;Sears, Neff and Eubank, halves, all freshmen and not remarkable; Hermes, fullback,a freshman who looks pretty good; andCaptain Elton, who would like to play half,but who fills in anywhere in the backfieldand is a really able player. If with no timeto practice, that aggregation wins a game this fall, let us give thanks. And they facefive games in November, as follows:November 9, Michigan at Chicago.November, 16, Northwestern at Evanston.November 23, Illinois at Chicago.November 30, Minnesota at Chicago.On October 2, Chicago played its firstConference game with Purdue. Because ofthe influenza epidemic the game was playedat Lafayette, this being our first visit tothe Indiana school in many years. Purduewon, 7 to 3, in a game between teams thatwere quite evenly matched. In the firstquarter Stejerman made a place kick, givingChicago a narrow lead of 3 points, whichpromised to be the deciding score; severalChicago chances for a touchdown werelost, however. Until the last half of thefourth quarter Chicago had the contest wonwhen the break of the game came, Purduemaking a forward pass that caught Chicago off its guard and scored the onlytouchdown of the game. The Maroonsafety men were fooled, became panicstricken, and allowed Markley, the Purduefull-back, to slip off by himself. ThreeChicago men had their hands on him, butfailed to hang on; it was the poor type oftackling that reveals inexperience.Chicago displayed plenty of faults, theline particularly seeming very weak; yetthe showing of the men was not withoutsome promise. With time, a team may bedeveloped, but it seems now that the bestthat can be done will be far below thelevel of other years, and very far below thelevel desired with a Michigan game, afterthirteen years, standing right before us.Municipal Pier GameThe Municipal Pier game on October 12was one of lost opportunities. Chicago beatback a fierce attack on her two-yard line,and then scored a touchdown. After thatthe stage-fright and the Navy team, whichwas ten pounds per man heavier and farmore experienced, scored twice in the second half. Its calibre may be judged by thefact that Gale Blocki, Chicago's quarterback last year, now at the Pier, and JohnBryan, who would have been a star at theUniversity this fall if he had not enlistedin the Navy, are both substitutes in itsback-field.THE UNIVERSITY OFALUMNI COUNCIL MEETINGThe first Alumni Council quarterly meeting, 1918-1919, was held Wednesday, Oct.23, 8:00-10:30 p. m., in the Alumni office,Cobb 4D. There were present: MaryBronaugh, Alice Greenacre, Mary MacDonald, Ruth Prosser, Emery Jackson, W.H. Lyman, Walker MacLaury, H. E.Slaught, John F. Moulds, A. G. Pierrot andRoy Nelson. Absent in war service:Dorothy Edwards, Shirley Farr, FranceAnderson, Earl Hostetter, Walter Runyonand Harold Swift. Chairman Frank McNair and Mrs. Ethel Kawin Brachnachwere absent owing to illness. John F.Moulds presided. Minutes of July 2ndmeeting were read and adopted.A report of Secretary-Treasurer Moulds,for the year ending Sept. 30. was read,which showed some loss in surplus as compared to the previous year, due to subscription loss and cost increases under war conditions. A supplementary report showedthat the War Fund, up to Oct. 1, 1918, hadon hand $389.57. Chairman Slaught, Finance Committee, presented a budget for1918-1919, much the same as presented lastyear. All three financial reports wereadopted and ordered filed.Mr. Roy Nelson, who had agreed to commence work on the directory, and to assume secretarial duties when Mr. Pierrotdeparted for war service, was presented.Several matters pertaining to the management of the Magazine during the comingyear were discussed, and were referred tothe Publications Committee for decision.It was moved that it be the sense of thismeeting that dues for all Associations, including Magazine subscriptions, be $2.00per year, and that the new rates take effectafter Jan. 1, 1919. It was pointed out thatwithout this increase it would be difficultto maintain the Magazine. This motionwas unanimously adopted.The meeting was interesting and important, as general groundwork was laid forcarrying through Alumni affairs for thecoming year as successfully as war conditions would permit.Law School Association MeetingThe first meeting of the year of the LawSchool Association was held on Tuesday,October 20, at a luncheon at the MorrisonHotel, Chicago. Judge Orin N. Carter,of the Supreme Court of Illinois, was theguest of honor and principal speaker. Hespoke on "The Constitutional Amendment,"a subject of great interest to lawyers andcitizens of Illinois at this time. There weretwenty Association members present. Themeeting was in charge of Miss Alice Greenacre, A. B., '08, T. D„ '11, President of theAssociation, and Charles F. McElroy, A. M.,'06, J. D., '15, Secretary, lt was greatlyenjoyed by all present, and gave promiseof an interesting and active year for theAssociation. The next meeting will be heldabout the end of November.

Frank A.Vanderlip, Ex. '04, in Scarborough-on-the-Hudson, New York. The entertainmentwas indoors, and, following a buffet supper, the party assembled in Beechwood"Playhouse." where there were brief speeches.music, and motion pictures of war scenesrun for the first time. The films of the University Quarter Centennial were also exhibited. The speakers were Alumni and Faculty members, who gave first hand information on various phases of war work.A most attractive invitation was sent outby A. T. Stewart, '04, President, and E. H.Alliens, '06, Secretary, of the Association!The meeting was very well attended andwas another proof of the loyalty to andinterest in the University of our New YorkAlumni.LETTER BOX 13The Letter Box[Tom Hollingsworth, '15, sergeant in the ordnanceservice in France, writes (address Ordnance Dept.,A. P. O. 717, A. E. F., France), as follows:]We have not slept in any one place mp-refthan two nights since we arrived, but Ithink we are finally settled here "at thisadvance depot, and will probably remain forsome time. We arrived here a few daysago, but were immediately sent out on aspecial detail to convoy some horses to thefront. It was quite an experience takingcare of a carload of horses, sleeping betweenthem, feeding and watering them. After arriving at the destination we unloaded thehorses and then went to a small camp notfar away. There was no room for us in thebarracks, for which we were thankful sowe pitched our pup tents and prepared forthe night. We were close enough to thelines to hear the guns and see the shrapneland star shells. The night before we werethere they had an air raid; so they wereparticularly watchful. Twice during thenight the alarm sounded and we were ordered to the dugouts, but nothing happened.' In the afternoon a "boche" plane cameacross our lines and was fired upon by ourguns. We only stayed there a day and thenstarted back here by a very roundabout wayand finally arrived about midnight two orthree days later. Next morning we startedwork in the new depot here, everybody rustling boxes, loading and unloading cars.We all said good-bye to the captain today. Some of the first group of Chicagoordnance men are here — the only ones Iknow are Norm MacLeod, a D. U., andDick Kuh. A few of us have been recommended to an officer's training school herein France. I am listed for the artillery,but, of course, there is nothing definiteabout it, and we may never hear from itat all.I am at the Y. M. C. A. waiting for Eastermorning services to begin. It is a rainy,disagreeable, cold morning, with much ofthe far-famed French mud under foot. Itwas so uncomfortable and damp down atthe barracks that we waded through a half-mile of mud to get here where it is a littlebetter, and also to attend services.Two American women are here arrangingthe flowers around the pulpit, and it's beginning to look like a real church.I'm at the new location now, in the officeof the chief ordnance officer of A. E. F. Weare located in one of the largest and mostprogressive cities of France, a big changeover what we have had the past month. Iam assigned to the division which will bringme into close contact with my old favorites,the machine guns. My work will be partlyas draughtsman and partly other officework,- the nature of which I am not sure ofas yet. I feel that it is a fortunate changefor me. Harry Gorgas, Harold Moore, JiggsDonohue, Bunny Newman and Joe Day, allChicago boys, are here. Five of us came over here last night and eight were alreadyhere. The recommendation of us for theline officers' training school has all fallenthrough; enlisted men of this departmentare not allowed to attend. Carl Defebaughand Harry Borroff are still at the depot.There is a nice "Y" here, very homelike andwith a good restaurant. The city is really awonder. We hardly know there is a war.We are quartered in what used to be thebarn of a French army post — stone floor andfine spring cots. It's a little crowded now,but several men will be transferred soon, Iunderstand. Bristow, Kite and I came downtown tonight and bought some chocolateice cream, which cost us each a franc, but,believe me, it was well worth it — the firstI've had since leaving the States. They tellme that on Sunday we can get a finechicken dinner with apple pie for 3 francs.Lucia W. Parker, Ex-'15, Writes:"I have simply worked like a dog' allwinter, no regular meal hours; not in bedusually before midnight, to be up by 6 to 7a. m., and often on duty for thirty-sixhours on a stretch. Five days after goinginto the service, I was made directrice ofone of the largest canteens connected withthe French army. We fed about 800 mendaily for dinner and about 400 for supper,with counter service in between times. Ihad a large force under me and was kepton the jump every moment. It was a wonderful experience. I would not have missedit for worlds. While there I had a visitfrom General Petain and received from himsome words of commendation which I shallalways treasure. Then in February I wasmade directrice of one of the rest stationsfor our own boys. That was an inspiring,glorious opportunity for which I shall always be grateful. It was so satisfying tofeed those hungry, tired, dirty fellows onthe troop trains and to hear them say itwas the best thing they had had since leaving America; and to see their enjoymentof the easy chairs and drop lights in the restroom and their rejuvenation after enjoyingone of our 20 fine showers, all did my heartgood. We fed as many as 9,000 in 36hours, and we got the system so well organized that it took just 45 minutes to feedover 1,300 men — of course not a meal, butcoffee and sandwiches. Now I have beengiven a new job. I am assistant organizerof all Red Cross canteens and rest stations for both French and American armies.I go from place to place, 'have the interiordecorating done, engage servants, buychina, and furniture and kitchen utensils,start the pantry and start the directress offin the way she should go and then go elsewhere to do the, same thing. In betweenacts, I report to headquarters in Paris, geta fresh supply of money, balance up pastaccounts and then start out again.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE"I must tell you what an odd coincidencehappened recently. I was at to openup a canteen and the first night we served(the very night before I left) I noticed agroup of American boys out on the platform. I asked them whether they knewthere was an American canteen at hand,and when they said 'no,' I said, 'Well, comein and let us see what we can do for you.'Soon I found a long line of some 250 filinginto the restaurant, so I was busily engagedpouring hot coffee and iced tea. For somemoments I was too rushed to look up, thenin a chance glance I stole. I suddenly foundBuell Patterson waiting to be served. Thenit developed that the unit was from Chicago, many University boys among thenumber, and that Dr. Harvey of the faculty was one of the officers. Miss RuthAbbott's brother (Dr. Donald P. Abbott)was also along. It was great fun. Twoof the youngsters hung around the counter until they had an opportunity to askif I knew the girls to whom they are engaged (two girls who received their bachelor's degrees in June, 1918,) and then eachsat down at one of our writing tables andwrote a letter to which I added a fewlines."Do write when you can; letters from theStates are precious things and news ismost welcome."Letter From Ensign Samuel Leland, Jr.,'17, to His Brother, C. F. Leland, '04October 14, 1918.Things have happened so fast lately Ihaven't had time, inclination or ambition towrite. In fact, I thought I'd be home totell it to you, but it looks as if that will notbe possible.To begin with — we left October3rd, 11 a. m. At 12 we crashed throughthe net at the entrance to harbor —bad luck No. 1. Well, things went alongfine after that, the officers all fine men,etc., good quarters, brand new ship andeverything. I was assigned to the 12-4watch as junior watch officer. Things weregoing along fine till Monday a. m. I wason watch and at 1 o'clock it began to rainand we couldn't even see our hands infront of our face. At 2:33 another steamship in convoy with us struck us on ourstarboard quarter and our ship sank in 17minutes.Being on watch I was one of the last toleave, and so when I got to the lifeboat,of which I had charge, No. 6, some hair-brain had let go the forward fall and thebow was in the water and stern in the air.Nice state of affairs with about 30 menwaiting to get into that boat. I managedto get it straightened out and then hadto slide down a life line to get in. Thenin trying to cast off the sea painter jammed,and. as there was a high sea running, keptdashing our boat against the side of theship. Three waves struck us and then over we went. I came up underneath the upturned boat and managed to get my headabove water and was getting along finewhen the boat was suddenly lifted and Iwas sent whirling away in another direction. When I came to I saw the lifeboatsome distance away and swam to it. (Istill had my rubber boots — slicker andsouthwester and life belt on) some load,but made the boat, whose gunwale wasonly about three inches above water. Shewas full of water inside. For some reasonI had a lot of trust in that boat, so got inher. Then as the ship was about to diveto Davy Jones, I noticed the sea painterstill fast, and as I had that big jack knifeof grandfather's, just cut it in time to escape going down in the suction.There were seven other men in our boat,all that were left of the original crowd, andthe air tanks were all that was keeping upafloat. After quite a while, we attractedthe attention of another lifeboat and theymanaged to get to the ship that hadrammed us and was standing by trying tohelp us. When we got aboard her, wethought we had surely been saved, whenthe officers told us that their ship had a badhole in her bow and they didn't knowwhether she would stay afloat or not.After getting all aboard we could find, welost seven enlisted men out of a crew of101 — all officers were saved. We startedfor , the nearest port. The accidenthappened about 500 miles off shore.During the day a terrific storm startedand we had to buck it, and if you don'tthing I was a worried sailor all night long,you are mistaken. The pumps were goingall the time, yet the water was gainingabout half an inch an hour, and it was justa matter of endurance. Of course, therewasn't any room for two crews on thisship so we all had to sleep on the floor ordecks any place. I slept on the ward roomfloor four nights. We got to andhad to wait for a couple of days for a train,and when we dropped into Fridaya. m. we were a sorry looking sight; onlythree other officers and I had a uniform.The rest of the officers had dungarees oroveralls and sweater on.I got pretty well banged up in the scrape.My face pretty well cut up and my legsand knees badly skinned and bruised, butotherwise am O. K. I have a uniform — nohat, a pair of rubber boots left of the entire fine outfit I had. Wouldn't it make youmad? And to make matters worse, I foundwe were bound for , and here I amback in the U. S. "U shall never reachFrance" is true so far.I hope soon to be over the shock, butI still jump every time a whistle blows.As ever, Sam.Note: "U shall never reach France" isthe navy slogan made up for the initialsU. S. N. R. F., denoting this branch of theservice, and standing for United StatesNaval Reserve Force.LETTER BOX ISEditor:Dear Sir: —Tickled to receive your letter. You areright in conjecturing the circumstancesunder which a soldier has to write. "Onceupon a time" I actually used to enjoy penning a half-way clever epistle, but now —"not possible." Worse than the din of abattery of 210s is that on an animated gameof African billiards going on under yourvery proboscis (whatever that is), or thewails of a peasant woman trying to cometo an understanding with one of the "nocompus" boys about a laundry bill.Had one "swell" time at Lyons. Thecity surely offers plenty of opportunitiesfor recreation, study and sightseeing. MetProf. Harvey of the history department(in officer's garb). He is attached to theFrench staff at that place. Quelque coincidence!Looking forward to the next issue of theU. of C. Magazine, November seems faroff.Yours sincerely,Pte. A. H. Schutz, '15.Co. B, 28th Engrs., Am. Ex. F.Ensign Willard P. Dickerson, '14, Tells ofSub ChasingSaturday, June 15.I weathered out two pretty good blowsand saw my food but once and that wasgoing down and not coming up. Believeme, this old ship does roll and pitch some.You can stand on the quarter deck and thebow looks right straight above you oneminute and way below you the next. WhenI was on watch as battery officer, whichwas every other four hours, day and night,I had to climb up in the crow's nest, 85feet, every hour and inspect the lookouts.And maybe she wasn't rolling some upthere! You were way out over the waterhalf of the time. Roller coasters, shootthe chutes and elevators have no thrill forme anymore. You get them all at once upthere, combined with half-filled buckets andslippery decks of some poor sea-sick lookout. Going up the ladder was the greatestsensation I ever had, especially at night.The wind blowing a gale and the ship tossing about so that first you would be aboutfive feet from the mast and then you wouldgo slamming into it or curve way aroundand wrap yourself around it a couple oftimes. Believe me, the tar is completelysqueezed out of all that rigging.-We had numerous sub warnings andsome not far from us, one directly ahead ofus about 30 miles, and one within five milesof us a half hour before, but we saw narya sign. We saw quite a little wreckagefloating around where thgy had been operating, but, of course, could not tell if theyhad caused it. At times you would getquite a thrill. Once a black fish, a smallwhale, showed up just as the general alarmfor battery drill sounded. You could just see this thing off about a thousand yardsand when it "blew" it looked just like aspray of the periscope or conning tower.Then the word came down over the voicetubes, "point of aim is the horizon, use noammunition!" Or in the middle of thenight to have the general alarm sound andevery one pile out, ranges and bearing comedown over the voice tube and then "secureand report when secure."On Active Service With the American Expeditionary Force, Sept. 4, 1918Dear Teddy:I finally got over.I was about two weeks going throughthe S. O. S., which is not the "same oldstuff," but the service of supply. Thatwas while I was getting assigned, and itnecessitated much moving about. I saw agood deal of France from various classcoaches, by motor and on foot. For a weekI was billeted with the manager of a largechocolate factory, who fed me well onchocolate, liquors and war stories. Hisvery attractive daughter spoke a little English, I a little French. So with this andthe father's quick wits we managed to talktill midnight almost every evening.A couple of weeks ago I was assigned toa regiment, then a company and platoon,all of which, except the latter, have beencited in orders. At present we are livingin pup tents in a thick wood, whose formerpopulation seems to have been principallyspiders. I've not yet seen any suddendeath, but since we are in sound of thebig guns I suppose I'll not have to waitlong for my craving to be satisfied. WhileI am writing considerable booming is going on, and judging by the sound, it is abattery of anti's after a Gotha. In severalplaces that I passed through, the game of"find the wine cellar" was prevalent, thoughnot popular.Unfortunately — oh, very! — I lost my baggage for three days when coming throughParis. ^1 knew I had not enough time todo justice to any of the most famed places,so I followed the American tradition andvisited the "Casino de Paris," and the"Follies Bergere."— I was properly impressed.I saw many familiar names on the University register at the Union, but FrankCushing is the only one I've met. I cameacross him at a replacement camp, wherewe were both waiting to be shipped out.He left a day before for an ammunitiondump, and I met him returning the next asI left. Why, I was unable to find out, andhe may still be indulging in beer at thelittle cafe, trying to inveigle "mademoiselle" to give him another egg or somebread without a ticket.I have had no mail for seven weeks, soany handouts will be gratefully received.Paul Mooney,"K" Co., 39th Infantry, A.

From Aden theparty crossed the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean to Bombay.The cablegram from Bombay follows:Guest Viceroy Simla last week-end. Sailing. Greeting University opening year.Judson.The latest cable which has been receivedfrom President Judson, states that he isabout to leave Bagdad for Teheran, thecapitol of Persia. He says that the conditions in Bagdad were very bad, as there are30,000 people in a starving condition, andat the same time there is a severe epidemicof Spanish influenza. So far, however, allof the members of the President's party arewell. At present, the commission is takingfood, clothes and medicine to the people ofTeheran, and other cities in the vicinity.DEAN ANGELL NOW VICE-PRESIDENTDuring the absence of President HarryPratt Judson, of the University of Chicago,as head of the American Commission forRelief in Persia, the Dean of the faculties,Professor James R. Angell, Head of theDepartment of Psychology, has been designated by the Board of Trustees as Vice-President of the University. Dean Angellhas been actively engaged in national service as a member of the Committee on Personnel under direction of the AdjutantGeneral, War Department, Washington.STARR GOES TO CENTRAL AMERICAProfessor Frederick Starr, world-famedanthropologist of the University of Chicago, whose researches in three continentshave brought him decorations from France,Italy, Belgium and other countries, leftChicago this week for a three months' visitto Central America. He will sail from aGulf port to Havana, going thence to Guatemala. He will make his headquarters inthe City of Guatemala for a time, afterwhich he will make an extended tourthrough Honduras, San Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rica, returning from thelatter country to the United States earlyin January.Besides the scientific researches whichhe will conduct into the prehistoric civilizations of the countries visited, ProfessorStarr expects to collect material for several books, one of these being a series ofselections from the writings of Central American authors, in Spanish, and anothera general work on Central America forpopular reading.THE NEW MEDICAL SCHOOLAnnouncement has been made at theUniversity of Chicago that the Universitywill establish two separate medical schools,each with its own administration and faculty and each providing for instruction andresearch. In the quadrangles on the Midway there will be a medical school with theprimary purpose of training students forthe degree of Doctor of Medicine. TheBachelor's degree from a reputable collegewill be required for admission, and provision will be made for about 350 students.Members of the faculty in the laboratorydepartments and in the main clinical departments will give their entire time toteaching and research, receiving no personal fees for practice. The staff of thehospital will consist of the medical faculty,patients being admitted only if willing tohave their cases used for teaching or research. This will be a new school in everyrespect and will be known as the University of, Chicago Medical School.In connection with the Presbyterian Hospital and the trustees of Rush Medical College there will be a medical school, theprimary purpose of which will be the further training of practitioners of medicine.Only students holding the degree of Doctor of Medicine from a reputable medicalschool will be admitted. While provisionfor full-time members of the faculty willbe made to some extent, eminent practitioners of medicine will be sought for faculty positions, without interfering with theirprivate practice. In recognition of thelong history of Rush Medical College,which under the new organization will ceaseto give the degree of Doctor of Medicine,this new school on the West Side will beknown as the Rush Postgraduate MedicalSchool of the University of Chicago.Medical research will be carried on inboth schools under the general directionof a University Board, and the subject ofpublic health will receive especial attention.Forty students and three members of thefaculty of the University of Chicago wereappointed to the Training Camp at FortSheridan, which began July 18 and closedSeptember 16. Only students who were atleast eighteen years of age and who expected to be in residence at the Universityduring the autumn quarter were appointed.The appointees from the faculty weretrained as assistant instructors to help officers assigned to institutions. The maximum age for members of the faculty wasforty-five years. Students and members ofthe faculty were under temporary enlistment for sixty days.NOTES 17QUARTER SYSTEM ADOPTED INOTHER INSTITUTIONSThe adoption by many educational institutions, and especially by all Student ArmyTraining Corps colleges and universities,of the four-quarter system, makes of special interest, the discussion of the subject inthe latest President's Report from the University of Chicago, which was the pioneerin this educational experiment. Among theadvantages of the system pointed out byPresident Harry Pratt Judson in his report are the following:The four-quarter system makes it possible for students to enter at the beginningof any of the quarters and degrees alsoare given at the end of each of the quarters. A' student may take any one of thefour quarters for his annual vacation, andhe may, if he wishes, work for all the fourquarters consecutively and thus shorten thetime required for his degree. The advantage to a member of the faculty is that hemay arrange his vacation as may be mostconvenient for him, or he may be in residence for four consecutive quarters in oneyear and so have six months of accrued vacation, which he can use for travel or forstudy in foreign lands.From the point of view of administrationthe four-quarter plan makes possible thefull utilization of buildings during elevenmonths of the year, and in the case ofdormitories results in receipts by the University of a third more income than wouldordinarily be received. It also enables theUniversity to organize economically its administrative offices on a yearly basis. Inthe experience of the University of Chicagothe attendance in the summer quarter hasusually been larger than in any other quarter of the year, and the fees from studentsare correspondingly larger.LEAVES OF ABSENCE GRANTEDLeaves of absence for service to theUnited States government in the war havebeen granted by the University of ChicagoBoard of Trustees to the following members of the faculties:To Professor Albert A. Michelson, headof the Department of Physics, who has beencommissioned as Lieutenant Commander inthe Navy, the highest rank conferred on anaval officer who returns to service. Lieutenant' Commander Michelson is a graduate of the United States Naval Academy atAnnapolis, where he later became a member of the faculty. Professor Michelson,who several years ago won the Nobel Prizein physics, is the author of a volume onLight Waves and Their Uses. He has recently been giving his attention to the improvement of the ordinary range finder.Leave of absence has also been grantedProfessor Charles Henry Beeson, of theDepartment of Latin, for service in the Intelligence Branch of the War Department.

Soares."The New Orthodoxy," by EdwardScribner Ames.The "Readings in the Economics of War"is perhaps the best book which has come toour notice of this type. It interprets theeconomic aspects of the war and outlinesits significance for the future organizationof industrial society. The editors havecompassed at least the major portion of theworld for their material, and have selectedwhat to them appears the best economicthought of the times."Readings in Industrial Society" coversa wide range of subjects and can be usedeither for a general review of the manyquestions involved in the industrial side ofthe war, or for a handbook on particularpoints. Professor Marshall's book is mosttimely.The book by Edward M. J. Burwash is athorough and authoritative survey of theregion, made more interesting by the remarkable photographs, which include aprofile of the Grouse Mountain spur, theLions from Mount Brunswick, a view ofRed Mountain from Black Tusk Mountain,Mount Garibaldi from the south, a glacialsection from a cutting on Keith Road, andothers equally interesting. One coloredmap shows the topography of Vancouverrange and the other is a geological mapof Vancouver and vicinity."The New Orthodoxy," by Associate Professor Ames, seeks to present in simpleterms a view of religion consistent withthe mental habits of those trained in thesciences, in the professions, and in the expert direction of practical affairs. It suggests a dynamic, dramatic conception designed to offer a means of getting behindspecific forms and doctrines. It aims toafford a standpoint from which one mayrealize the process in which ceremonialsand beliefs arise and through which theyare modified. When thus seen religion discloses a deeper, more intimate, and moreappealing character. As here conceived itis essentially the dramatic movement of theidealizing, outreaching life of man in themidst of his practical, social tasks.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEAlumni in ServiceCharles Winston, '96, is in the SignalCorps.E.

Hefelbower, Ph. D.Probably all students of English thoughtof the sixteenth and seventeenth centuriesrecognize some sort of relation betweenJohn Locke and English Deism, but theydiffer as to how they are related. Somewriters make him a part of the movement,others consider him its father, and severalof the leading historians of philosophymerely note the fact that there is some relation without defining it.That these statements are wrong or inadequate the present monograph undertakesto show, and also that Locke and EnglishDeism are related as coordinate parts ofthe larger progressive movement of theage. This challenging of widely acceptedhistorical opinions requires that the proofof the thesis to be established should bemade accessible to the reader and shouldbe as complete as possible. Accordinglythe book is to a great extent a detailedmarshaling of evidence. "A History of Suffrage in the UnitedStates," by Kirk Porter.The purpose of this timely historicalstudy is to bring out the fact that a vigorous fight has been going on ever since 1776to secure suffrage for some large and discontented group — ever growing larger andmore discontented until it finally includedwomen. Many will be surprised to learnthat the franchise was so limited when theConstitution was adopted, and the historiesgive but scant hint of the fact that in theearly decades of the last century the greatest statesmen were throwing the wholeweight of their logic and oratory in favorof restricting the suffrage to the smallgroup of property owners and taxpayers.An attempt is made in the book to carrythe reader rapidly on from decade to decadewithout getting lost in the details of localhistory. Political ideals, arguments, andtheories, social conditions, and economiccircumstances that caused men to want thesuffrage and think they had a right to ithave been sought out, and thus the development of the move toward universal suffragehas been traced in its broader aspects.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINESpecial emphasis has been placed on theCivil War, the reconstruction period, andnegro suffrage, which is so vitally connectedwith Congressional representation. So faras the latest phase of the subject is concerned, woman suffrage, the author hasgiven the reader a background from whichhe can approach the issue in the light ofother suffrage history."Starved Rock State Park and Its Environs," with maps and illustrations, byCarl O. Sauer, University of Michigan, Gilbert H. Cady, Illinois State Geological Survey, and Henry C. Cowles, University ofChicago.This thorough and interesting geographical study of the best-known feature of theIllinois Valley has been prepared for thebenefit of those who are interested in knowing more about the region than can be gathered by personal observation in a few hoursor a few days spent in the park. The physical geography of the park and its surroundings has a number of features, suchas the beautiful little canyons, which areunusual in this part of the country. Part I is given up to the geography of the park,its surface features and their origin, andthe exploration, settlement, and development of the region; Part II, to the geologyof the park; and Part III, to its botany.It is especially fitting that this bulletinis published by the Geographic Society ofChicago, as this society was one of theprime movers in the establishment of thepark. Dr. Sauer has prepared for the society the geographical section; Dr. Cady,the geological section; and ProfessorCowles, the botanical section. The book isequipped with topographic and geologicmaps and forty-five illustrations, some ofthem of great beauty."A Survey of Religious Education in theLocal Church," by William C. Bower.This book, the result of the use of thesurvey method in the department of religious education at Transylvania College,presents a full treatment of the method,thus making it available for the use ofthose who have had no previous experiencein social or educational surveys.ALUMNI, PLEASE NOTEOur Alumni, proud of the title, "The Fighting University," which theirAlma Mater's patriotic service has won, are everywhere showing renewedand deeper interest in their great institution.There has arisen, as one result, a request that we renew, if possible,the recent special offer to our Alumni of theHistory of the University of ChicagoBy DR.
