If the country demanded the last drop of blood e,f every Xotre Dame man, and all the material, moral and intellectual resourees of the university there could he only one answer to the request. Continue- Old Traditions. "You young men who edicate yourselves to this new and hazardous enterprise are inly continuing the patriotic traditions of Notre Dame.

Father Cavanaugh here cited several touching incidents illustrating the happy, unexpected meeting of faculty and students on the- fields of France. Continuing he said: "When the nay comes to end this mighty conflict and to pull down the Mag of the kaiser and to lift the Stars and Stiipes over a happy and emancipated world it will be the spiritual quality of the soldier that will determine the issue of victory. As the greatest warrior the world has ever known, the brilliant and unscruplous Napoleon Ibuiaparte, once said, that there was a marshal's bateau locked up in the knapsack of every French soldier, so let every Xotre Dame student strive to be super-eminent fer eou'Mge and daring and judgment and every other soldierly quality. Our Answer To (criuaiiy. "When the war broke out Germany said. "Americans have been softened by generations of peace and comfort and they are afraid to fight.' The answer is 2. 000. 000 young Americans, the Mower of our chivalry, drawn up in battle array turned tewards Derlin. When this war broke out Germany said that 'the Americans won't tight because they love money too much to spend it in a war for mighty principles." The answer is the fourth Kiberty loan and the other I.ibertv loans and the amazing generosity and patriotism em all sides of the American people.

rollmcnt for this term will close next ( vice president 1 treasurer, and
vv e e i . Fecause of the Kiberty loan activities the enrollment has not been what it should be. The classes in machine shop and auto work are well tilled and beginning and conversational French classes are decidedly popular. There is an opportunity for advanced work in French for a college credit, for those who desire it. Mr. Appleman asks that more young men register in the radio and buzzer class, which will fit them for signal service In the army, and also emhasizes the import.Hnce of the arts ani crafts class which aims to prepare students for rehabilitation work in the camps of this country and oversea?. The enrollment in the English lasses at the Iiurel. Oliver and Washington schools doe? not equal that of last year, but a class of SO has registered in that work at the Hungarian club on Chapin ?t.

People Notice It. Drive Them Off with Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets A pimply face will not embarrass you much longer if you get a package of Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets. The skin should begin to clear after you have taken the tablets a few nights. Cleanse the blood, bowels and liver with Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the successful substitute for calomel; there's no sickness or pain after taking them. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets do that which calomel does, and just as effectively, but their action is gentle and safe instead of severe and irritating. No one who takes Olive Tablets is ever cursed with "a dark brown taste," a bad breath, a dull, listless, "no good" feeling, constipation, torpid liver, bad disposition or pimply face. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are a purely vegetable compound mixed with olive oil; you will know them by their olive- color. Dr. Edwards spent years among pa tients afflicted with liver and bowel complaints, and Olive Tablets are the immensely effective result. Take one or two nightly for a week.
