DOLLARS FOR IDEALS
Tomorrow the campaign for the
United War Activities fund begins.
Solicitors will call on the residents of
Columbia at their homes for their
subscriptions. There is little excuse
for anyone who doesn't give some
thing. Buying Liberty Bonds in the right
spirit means an actual sacrifice to
many persons in moderate circunictan
ces. While a hundr dollars may not rep
resent a large sum of money, yet the
majority of people have to sacrifice
to withdraw this amount from the
family treasury. To some the price
of even a $50 bond is prohibitive. But
everyone, by really trying, cin g'e

The seven organizations, united to , striking statement at a recent corn-

the only sources of recreation and !
mencement address "Today is the dis
pleasure of our fighting forces in
France. Far from the influence of
family and friends, with nothing to
give them pleasure, seeing always the
bloodshed and desolation of war, they
have only these seven war activities
to look out for their w elfare. The hut
of the Y. M. C. A. or the Knights of
Columbus or the Jewish Welfare
Board is home to them. It is a place
where they can gather during their
leisure hours, write letters, talk, hear
lectures, see picture shows and other
amusements and forget for a time the
heart-rending scenes they must view
in the trenches and the ever-j res-ent
grim specter of death.
With the end of life ever in sight,
soldiers are likely to grow careless
and reckless. If no good and safe
form of amusement offers itself, they
are likely to indulge in harmful activ
ities and temptations which are nver
far away.
We as a Nation want the men who
have offered themselves for the sake
of liberty and freedom to remain clean
in mind and heart. Because they
are fighting for us, we must look out
for them. It will benefit us little, if
in winning our battles, they lose their
own ideals.
It is our duty to keep them happy
and to keep temptation away from
them as much as possible. To do this,
we must furninsh them wholesome
amusements.
We can not each in person go to do
our part but we can give our dollars
to the workers of the United War Ac
tivities who are already there, with
the knowledge that they will be used
to the best advantage.

THE NEW BOOKS
fcFrom Baseball to Bodies."
The author, H. C. Witwer, gives in
these nine innings an interesting hu
man picture of the American Army
in France. Surely the reader gets
more of the feeling that our men are
actually there and were giving up
their lives even as the men of the
other Allies have done.
. The true American spirit is shown
here. It might almost be called brag,
except that it is so obviously put on
to cover up the real humility our men
feel before these nations who have
been carrying the burden so long.
Breezy, fun-provoking, rollicking as
the letters are, underneath there is
the realization of what the Germans
are and the fixed determination to
make them pay.

TELLS CHILDREN TO KEEP WELL
Poster Club Also Illustrates Other
Patriotic Serrlces.
The Poster Club, a student organ
ization of the University, under the
supervision of Miss Gladys Wheat, is
making patriotic posters to be sent
over the state in the interest of the
Women's Committee of the National
Council of Defense. They tell the
aim of the committee, state-wide or
ganization of women for patriotic ser
vice, and outline the departments of
work, child welfare, Americanization,
education, food, health, and recreation.
and women in industry.
The child welfare posters illustrate
the care of the eyes and teeth, cor
rect breathing, what to eat and what
not to eat One poster, on the old
way, getting sick and then getting
well, shows a child in bed with the
doctor giving medicine. The new
way, keeping well, has a group of
three children, one washing his teeth,
another exercising, and the third
splashing in the tub.
Miss Ella V. Dobbs will use these
posters in her extension work. They
are in stencil designs, and can be du
plicated any number of times. Posters
may be obtained through Miss Dobbs.
The Poster Club is an informal or
ganization. Any student interested in
the work may become a member by

SOCIETY NOTES
R0NT SLACKEN UP YET
With the end of actual fighting ap
parently drawing near, many of us
ere inclined to slacken up in our war
activities. Let's not begin too soon.
It is estimated that it will take a
year or more to get all the men back
to the United States. In the meantime
they will still need the supplies that
they have needed before. Winter is
coming on and they vill need wirm,
knitted articles. After they have put
forth the best that is in them in this
war we must not let them contract
pneumonia, tuberculosis and other
diseases on account of lack of pro
(ecting garments.
There are also after this final drive
many more boys in the hospitals than
there have been at any time during
the war. They must be supplied with
hospital shirts, surgical dressings, and
magazines to read.
With the signing of peace, we will
have to send food into the territory
controlled by the Central Powers. Neu
trals, too, will have to be considered.
Don't begin taking thirrgs easy an
wasting for the fun of it too soon.

Lieutenant Virgil S. Beck, a grad

in Columbia yesterday to see about
his diploma which was awarded last
June but which has been missent.
He left this afternoon for Camp Mc
Clellan, Anniston, Ala.
Lieutenant Beck went with the Mis
souri University Ambulance Unit to
France about a year and a half ago.
When he returned he entered the Third
Officers' Training Camp at Camp Pike
and received his commission as second
lieutenant. Then he took three
months training at Camp Jackson,
S. C. Last July he went to the School
of Fire at Fort Sill, Okla., and Octo
ber 12 entered the Radio School at
Columbia University, New York City.'
He has just completed the course
there.
Lieutenant Beck was in New York
City the night of October 11 when
President Wilson addressed a crowd at
the New Amsterdam Theater and
$1,000,000 worth of bonds were sold
in thirty minutes. The next day he
saw the Columbus Day Parade there.
He says an average of 500 wounded
men a week are landing in New York.
