MILITARY OBSERVERS
FINISH WORK HERE
Army Men Have Been Studying
With Prof- G. A. Loveland to
Learn to Forecast Weather
Charles Beakslee, graduate engineer
from the University of California, and
Charles Knott, graduate of the engf
neering department of Cornell univer
sity, both of the National army, who
have been studying meteorology at
this University, in co-operation with
Prof. G. A. Loveland, and iu the in
terests of the United States, have
nearly completed their investigations,
and expect to be called back into serv
ice soon. They expect to be sent di
rectly to France from here.
Their work here has been to handle
meteorological instruments, and to
learn to forecast and distinguish
weather conditions. The army needs
weather observers badly, and 200 men
from all the camps have been drafted
into this branch of service. This new
phase of the work is called the Science
and Research division of the army.
Recently the Atlantic Monthly print
ed an article on "Science at the Front,"
emphasizing the value of science in
war. In this discussion it explained
the importance of the weather bureau
work. One night they set their guns
and fired with unusual success, de
stroying much of the German line.
The next Morning the guns set at the
same elevation fired on their own front
lines. They began to study this phe
nomenom and decided to establish the
meteorological branch.
The men will probably be stationed
all along the line to determine the
atmospheric conditions and set the
gun a to best advantufe6.
"FETE OF ALL NATIONS"
COMPLETE SUCCESS
(Continued from page one.l
these skits, and so much interest ex
hiblted by those who attended, that it
is not unlikely that the Fete will be
made an annual event. It would prob
ably be based upon the same general
Ideas as the party Saturday night, al
though the details would of course
vary from year to year.
The success of . the party is almost
entirely due to the work of the com
mittees in chance. There was much
more work connected with the Fete
than with one of the Ubual all-University
mixers, and the workers deserve
no little credit for voluntarily taking
It upon themsnWes to work out such
an original and uovel series of Ideas.

they handle all sorts of supplies, ra
tions, ammunition and even hospital
trains to bring the wounded from the
trenches to the hospitals. In the Cam

of a letter received from General By
lng telling them of their good work
during the drive.
