DEMONSTRATION FOR STUDENT

'Who Had Been Called for Service in National Army. Frank Gottemiller of Celina, Ohio, a student at St. Joseph college, was given a demonstration Monday evening on the occasion of his departure to join the national army. While a large number of St. Joe students joined the service during the „ summer, Gottemiller was the first one to do so since the opening of the autumn semester, and he was escorted to the train by the college band and the entire student body, about ?3 0 in number. * : The band played patriotic airs as the throng passed through the city, and three mammoth flags were borne by the students. It is quite probable that a number of other students will be oalled during the tsrm, and their departure should indeed be filled with some pleasure at being the recipient of such signal honors as were bestowed upon the young man who left Monday.
