'proportion of calls upon the
Mdem rmy training corps for offl
I candidates during the next nine
0ntbs is expected to be about as
toUos:
Th( Infantry (Including machine
.. battalions), field artillery and
Lry (coart) artillery sixty per cent,
it which percental approximately
two-thinla will require special prepa
ration In mathematics as outlined In
letter of Sept. ISth.
To air Fcrvlce, 20 per cent.
To ordnance and quartermasters'
corps, 10 per cent.
To remaining corps including engi
neers, utenal corps, chemical warfare
service, etc., 10 per cent. These corps
require more special technical quail
fieatlons.
The quartermaster and ordnance
rorps will require a considerable
number of limited service officer.
Information Is being prepared and
1U soon be issued for each student
Mdier which will give a definite
statement of the type of nren and the
kind of preparation required by the
several branches of the service as
well as a brief statement of the char
acter of duties of officers of each
branch.
It is good general advice to all stu
dent soldiers who have been pursuing
or had planned to pursue some tech
nical course to continue along that
technical line or in preparation for it.
A plan is being formulated for rat
ing each student soldier with regard
several distinct qualities, 1. e.,
Intelligence (academic work).
Ability to command men.
Physique.
Business ability.
Character.
Honor or scrupulousness.
And other qualities.
The varied characteristics of the
different individuals thus indicated to
gether with individual expressions of
choice will enable Intelligent transfer.
While it is expected that a substan
tial number of soldiers of the stu
dents army training corps will devel
op sufficiently to warrant their trans
fer to the officers' training schools
far infantry and the various corps,
and there be given a chance to demon
strate their ability as prospective offi
cer, it must be understood that the
"election will be on a highly compet
itive basis and that many will neces
sarily be transferred without special
Commendation in this regard. Such
men will have their further opporta
nity to qualify for commission In the
course of active service.
It should also be made clear that
where there are both "A" and
sectlona in the same Institution, there
la no distinction or discrimination be
tween them with respect to selections
for officers' schools provided the pre
scribed standards are met.

Thursday 10 a. m. and 1 p. m.
Friday 5 p. m.
There will be one quiz for each
section each week. This course is to
require six hours preparation each
week.
It is understood at military head
quarters thaMhere will be two groups
Df special students studying at differ
ent hours. These special groups refer
to (hose of engineering and medicine
Arrangements for these groups have
not been made as yet but a complete
and definite schedule will be announc
ed soon.
Time for Athletics
It will be the rule in this camp for
Wednesday afternoon to be devoted
co athletics. This does not mean that
in a certain week all men will be out
for football. All sports such as rac
ing. Jumping and various games will
be. indulged in by all the soldiers.
Wednesday afternoon of each week
will le a big one and the man who
,oes not lead into that thing with 100
per cent of his worth instead of being
forced will be decidedly the loser.
Inspection on Saturday
Captain Maclvor states that Satur
day morning inspection at this camp
Aill be a very rigid one. When that
formality has been gone through the
men will have learned more about mil
itary discipline and courtesy than they
would learn on the drill field In twice
the time.
It Is also the Intention of Captain
Maclvor that all men will be on reave
from Saturday noon, until a specified
time Sunday evening. It is then tip to
each man to see that he earns his pass
The S. A. T. C. of Nebraska Uni
versity is in competition with about
499 others of its kind. This one will
put no men out to officers' camps who
do not make good here and conse
quently this S. A. T. C. will rank with
the highest. This camp is to be run
on a very interesting basis: each and
every man is going to have a chance
to show his full worth here and it is
to the utmost advantage of every man
in going to an officer's' training camp,
that Captain Maelvor's report of him
is good if not excellent.
The four men who tried for admis
sion into West Point from this uni
versity failed in the mental examina
tion, although it is thought they pass
ed tbe physical test. Both of these
examinations, however, 'are very
rigid. A thorough working knowl
edge of advanced mathematics and
engineering are required.
NO PEACE UNTIL HUN
IS BEATEN, SAYS TAFT
"Germans now realize that ul
timate defeat stares them In the
face and they are striving to save
their dynasty by a negotiated peace.
If we allow that dynasty to remain,
or the spirit of it to remain in the
German people, we surely will have to
fight this, or a much more terrible war
all over again. We have poured out'
too much precious blood to let It be
In vam. We must now and forever
establish permanent peace."
So said ex-President William II
Taft, In speaking in Rhode Island re
cently. "Shall we make a peace treaty with
Germany, after we have defeated her?
No. Who would believe her? We
know she will never keep her prom
ises. We shall make peace in such a
way that we will keep Germany down,
and living straight, and the way is
through a league of nations, with suffi
cient power to at once, thoroughly and
soundly, punish any nation that shall
start trouble anywhere and refuse to
submit all questions through the
peaceful channels provided in the
agreement acong civilized nations."
