Al.-o pa triotic anies were jdaved. At tho conclusion of the iroram refresh menM were served. Many out of town guests were ptesent. It was announced by the Kev. A. M.

Pev. .Matthew Schumacher. C. S. '., director of studies at Notre Dame university, has ju.-t leen informell by Dr. W. T. Hott. secretary of the Indiana state hoard cf medical registration and examination, that the proposed medical course t be opened in s'eptin her at Notre Dame- will receive due recognition. The secretary assures I'r. Schumacher that the mere compliance with the published requirements for medical schools will sutJice at the start, and that when the school has been under way a short time a committee from tho state hoard will vis. it Notre I'ame to make an Inspection of the work and that official recognition will then he considered. Two-Year "Mirx to llcciti. nly two years of medicine will he given at Notre Dame, at least for the time being. Though the isolation of Notre Dame offers many desirable features not obtainable at schools located in larger centers still the lack of adequate clinical facilities, so necessary in the latter half of a medical course, has deterred the university from establishing a full four years' program. The nevv medical school will have its own board of directors as soon as tentative plans mature. The hoard will be composed of physicians who, besides acting as an advisory capacity, will also give special lectures in tin- school. The appointments to this hoard have not yet been announced, but they will he made public shortly. This will he somewhat of a nevv departure at Nettie Dame as all other college faculties in the. university have been composed of men who are ac tive professors or instructors in the school. The pathological and anatomical laboratories .are being equipped. All facilities will he of the most up-to-date and serviceable. Thoroughness will be the goal sought in the new school and no effort will be spared to make its graduates the be-t trained in the country. OHAS. W. CALL

Information from Washington so far available Indicates that the draft drawing will work out in this w ay: There are 4.SÖ0 exemption districts. When the first number is drawn say number 1", it will be recorded as number one, with the

I seriols number (10) following. The

record would show that the men whose carels bear the serial number 1 in each of exemption districts would be lirst to appear before the exemption boards. Pre

sumably the announcement made at

the drawing would be number one, serial number D. It is assumed that when the drawinn is complete the government will compute how many men arc represented by number cme in the tlraw

; Ing and by the numbers immediate

ly succeeding ami then issue an order for enough to report to make the total desire-d for the tirst army. Fcr instance, the ürst call miht be fo numbers one to one hundred in all districts. When the lirst exemption came in each district. number one hundred one would be called, ami so on. lladgcs for Kxeiiiptcd. To prevent embarrassment among those who are exempt the war department has decided to give with each exemption certilkate a brotue badge bearing the inscrip-

tion: "Exempted I . S." The de

sign for this badge has been approved by Seo'y Daker and a mini her already are in process of manufacture. It is intended to prevent those exempted from any suspicion of being slackers. The law specifies that exemptions are not permanent unless the cause for which they are grant d is permanent. For instance, if a man should be exempted on the first call because of a dependent relative and that relative should die

j or become self supporting before

the second call, the registrant would be liable for serwte under the second call. It Avill be the duty of th5 exemption boards to keep watch of such cases and recall men who have

been passed over once but w hose

status may have changed before the second call is made.

O-o-o-h! likewise Hush-h-h! Trea! carefully and always look hehind the bookstacks before you enture in! 'Cause there may he German sny a-hansin 'round the library. Or if the man isn't a real-honest-to-soodness German py he must surely he some sort o' relation to Kaiser Bill. 'Cause he marks up the nice, white margins around the cartoons in the magazines in a manner truly scandalous whenever these cartoons refer to the Germans (thosesweet people who live in central Kurope, you know) in a manner other than complimentary. Needless to to add, most of the cartoons are marked. Our "German spy." or Kaiser Hill's cousin, whichever it may be. writes pert little commentaries on the title of the cartoons. For instance, a cartoon .showing the German submarines stranded on the rock of American Knius bears the cartoonist's title: "Kventuallv." Our German friend has added the words: "Show me." And there is another cartoon showing Me-und-Gott-Bill endeavoring to coax the Russian hear into a trap baited with honeyed word. The cartoonist has labelled this cartoon: "A too obvious trap." Our clever (?) German enthusiast has added the words: "And in he will go." It keeps the librarians busy erasing the commentaries inscribed by our German fanatic. For fanatic he must be. No regular German spy would so readily advertise his presence in our midst.
