"I have seen wounded Germans attempt to pull the bandages off French soldiers, knowing that they would bleed to death, and this when Germans and allies alike were being taken by the humanitarian Red Cross workers to hospitals back of the French lines. This gives an idea of what they were capable of doing when given opportunity at prisoners on their side of No Man's Land." Locke was with the 21st French division for several months before May 26, 1918, when be was captured by a detachment of Germans, who started him on the road to Germany and a prison camp. "By the time I got to that prison camp my wearing apparel, which had been complete when I started, consisted of a shirt, trousers and socks. Where was the rest? Acting in the capacity of souvenirs in the possession of German guards. Spiral puttees, wrist watch, coat all were gone.

He received only one wound, a small one In the head, although he passed through terrific barrage fire on a number of occasions. "We gained a certain objective in 24 minutes that the French had assured us could not be reached in two years." Kinsey said. "We did it with 62 miles of heavy artillery firing bo rapidly that the Germans thought it was machine gun fire. "In the Argonne Forest region," he said, "the trees stood straight and thick when we entered. When the firing died down the trees had been completely leveled with the shells." William H. Romey, Jr., was introduced by his father, for a talk on "When We Grow Up," which applied to every boy, his ambitions, and his father. "Is there any reason that a boy with greater opportunities than his father should not make more of a success of life?" he questioned. "Boys, it's up to you to take advantage of the opportunities you have and become bigger, better men than your fathers, if that is possible."

Of especial enjoyment to the guests was the music furnished by the High School Sextette, and the Father and Sons' Quartette composed of Clarence Kerlin, Oliver Nuhbaum, John and Robert Graham. Europe after 1867 will be taken up. The history of 'the German govern ment, which is necessarily the history of the state of Prussia, will be the focus point, and the histories of the other countries will be used with regard to their relations to political and social modern Europe, and the war. Spain, America, Poland, Russia, Belgium, Holland, Italy, Ausrla-Hungary, and the Balkan states will be studied briefly by the class, and when the trip from the eighteenth century to the twentieth century is completed and 1914 is reached, the great war will be taken up more in detail. For the fundamental work text books will be used, supplemented by use of magazine articles, newspapers and letters. Reconstruction work, and its division between the Allies and Central Powers, is a part of this course. This work will be followed by the class, as events take place, and will include the activities of the Peace conference, although the extent of the course will probably not reach far beyond November 11, 1918. No Freshmen are accepted Into the class. It is composed mostly of seniors, but a few Juniors and Sophomores are enrolled. It is a five day course and comes the last hour in the afternoon.

WASHINGTON Tom Moore's brilliant performance in "Thirty a Week" gives Goldwyn further proof that, in responding to public clamor and the requests of hundreds of theatre owners throughout the country that the popular young artist be given his rightful place among the famous group of Goldwyn stars, no mistake was made.

There is music of an especially entrancing sort, comedy which simply compels you to laugh and a pretty chorus, sumptuous costuming : ana all the other accessories which i contribute to attractive stage pictures.' While Mr. Gabery is too wise to attempt to burden a musical show with j a plot of a heavy nature, he has never-1 theless given the play a real plot which tells a tangible story and which introduces some excruciatingly
