DAVIDSON COIXKOK.
Davidson College will not open until
Wednesday, September 18th. Matricu
lation offices open Monday and Tues

cipally because so large a number of
the upper classes and faculty are at
Plattshnrg undergoing military train
ing, at the request of the government,
to assist in the military training of
Davidson students the coming session.
This Plattsburg Camp closes Septem
ber 16th.

The college is just in receipt of the
following telegram from the War De
partment: "The President, Davidson
College. Davidson, N. C. Your insti
tution having satisfied the prescribed
conditions, a unit of the Students'
Army Training Corps will be estab
lished therein. By direction the Sec
retary of War an officer of the United
States Army will be detailed to your
institution at an early date and will
upon arrival proceed with organiza
tion of your unit. Rifles, uniforms,
overcoats and other equipment win be
shipped to you soon upon the basis of
figures already furnished by you."
Students eighteen years old and
over must enlist and those under
eighteen must enroll to secure t li Is
military training. Candidates for the
ministry exempted by their draft
boards can take this training and be
discharged. Those who take this
training and wish later to enlist in the
navy and other branches of the ser
vice will doubtless be permitted to do
so, as 1 am informed by the authori
ties at Washington. Students taking
this training should not provide any
winter wardrobe of outer clothing.
The thoroughness of work will not
be abated, and all will be done under
Davidson's well known Christian in
fluence. Students succeeding in class
and drill and manifesting the proper
spirit will be further trained in Of
ficers' Training Camp.
The government will certainly pro
tect all students who give promise of
good work and keep them in college
until properly trained. If the draft
age is lowered it is at once the best
method of becoming an officer and
getting a college education. It ought
to bring tens of thourands of young
men into those colleges where these
units are established, and it ought to
more than fill the dormitories of
Davidson College.
It is a time to make sacrifices, heroic
if necessary, by young men and for
young men to get such training as
Davidson offers.

President.

"To help make strong, keen, red-blooded Americans there Is nothing in my experi
ence which I have found so valuable as organic iron ? Nuxated Iron," says Dr. James
Francis Sullivan, formerly physician of Hcllevue Hospital (Outdoor Dept.), New \ork,
and the Westchester County Hospital. Nuxated Iron often Increases the strength
and endurance of weak, nervous, run-down people in two weeks* time. It is now be
ing used by over three million people annually, including such men as Hon. Leslie M.
Shaw, former Secretary of the Treasury, and ex-Governor of Iowa: former United
States Senator Richard Roliand Kenney of Delaware, at present Major of the IT. S.
Army; General John L. Clemm (Retired), the drummer boy of Sblloh, who was
sergeant in the IT. S. Army when only 12 years of age: also United States Judge

families in the cottages. The man
agement was obliged to refuse to take
boarding guests this year as the house
has been pretty well filled with stu
dents, teachers and such patrons as
come from time to time during vaca
tion to enter their children. Four new
students from the vicinity of New
Hope church have been registered
during the past week, an?T a party of
nine motored up from Comer a few
days ago to see the school with a
view to entering students. These
young people are especially welcome
?.s the Board of Directors, at their an
nual meeting in June, very strongly
urged that increased efforts be made
to fill the dormitories with boys and
girls from the country communities
throughout Synod, so that the school,
being a Synodical institution, may
reach and serve the people of every
Presbytery.
Through the generosity of friends of
the school a Missionary Ford has been
bought, and Mr. Ed. Clyde, an old Na

Military Training at Davidson
Delayed Opening of the College
Davidson College will not open until Wednesday, September 18th. This is
due to the fact that so many students and faculty members are, at the request of the
War Department, in training at the Plattsburg Camp to assist the army officer this
session and will not be released until September 16th.
The College is in receipt of a telegram from the War Department that the
order lias been given to establish a Students' Army Training Corps Unit at
Davidson. A United States army officer will be detailed to give instruction, and
rifles, uniforms, overcoats and other equipment will be shipped at once.
Students who mean business, whether over a lowered draft age or not, will
have opportunity to continue their college training just as West Point cadets do.
Those who desire can choose navy, etc., instead of army service.
Write for catalogue to Registrar for information about fees, rooms, board, etc.,
