With the beginning of the second
semester of school this year will be
Inaugurated in the university military
department the new orders which have
been issued by the army department
of the United States to apply to all
the state Institutions of higher learn
ing. The orders as published Monday,
aply tt those universities placed in the
first class.
The amount of required drill is In
creased over that required by the uni
versity in the past by two hours per
week. In addition the orders state
that the cadets will be required to take
a certain amount of work In the Btudy
of tactics.
Altogether the work required of the
cadet will give him a very good edu
cation along military lines. The or
ders are Issued to take effect with the
understanding that the obeyance of
them means the continued government
appropriations for all college military
departments of the first class. The
amount of drill required from each
cadet 1b three semesters.
It is a recognized fact that the uni
versity cadets today are niore efficient
than tho state guard as to training
received and actual knowledge of mili
tary rules, regulations and drill.
The training which a man receives
before he can hold an offlcerahlp Is
more thorough than that required of
the officers of the militia.
It was an Interesting fact to note In
regard to tho late war, tjjat some of the
moat efficient soldiers, including offi
cers, had received their training In
state Institutions where military train
ing Is one of the requirements to grad
uation. While some cadets may feel It a
Hardship to be required to give so
much time to drill, still they must not
forget that they owe something to tho
state and tho country for tho oppor
tunity offered them to obtain an edu
cation without tho payment of large
tuition fees. Ho Is a very narrow
minded Individual and more selfish
than is good for the men about him
who will not concode that for all tho
benefits that are given to him for
nothing he does not owe something.
If it 1b worth while to attend a public
college, it is worth while to give some
small return for value recolved. What
1b actually required, then, by the gov
ernment 1b a very 6m all thing com
pared tct what one gains, and as a
citizen each cadet should feel it in
cumbent upon him to make himself aa
good a citizen as possible In a military
sense.
It cost $545,000 to maintain the Uni
versity of Michigan last year.
Colorado will hold the preliminaries

Harvard has a Rural club which

000 for the foundation of a memorial
lectureship in medicine at Johns Hop
kins. Sophomores and Freshmen at Min
nesota will debate the question, "Re
solved, That bachelors should be taxed
to support old maids."
President Schurman, In a recent ad
dress before the students of Minnesota,
took a decided stand against the short
ening of the A. B. course.
According to the last census there
are 98,923 students enrolled in Amer
ican colleges. This is one student to
every 780 inhabitants.
The annual New Year's souvenir of
the English club consisted this year
of a double blotter with a character
istic English club cut on the cover.
A verse from Chaucer's "Canterbury
Tales" completes this very effective
souvenir.
The agricultural department will
ask the legislature for an appropria
tion to provide for the building of a
new green house. Tho horticultural
branch of that department is unable
to accommodate the collections which
are being donated to It on account of
a iack of room.
