"It has been very interesting to fol
low the course of the University in re
gard to military training. It was in
deed fortunate to receive the services of
Colonel Leader, who. In addition to his
actual service 0n the western front as
a professional s'ldier, is held in such
high, esteem by all those with whom he
comes in contact. This is no doubt the
secret to the success of the work ;t the
University. Combined with the ordnance
course and the R. O. T. C. of thia Bum

ed to prevent a mad ruth lor the re

Louis C- HoBenherg, who resigned his
position in the art department of the
University of Oregon to enlist in the
camouflage corps of the army last win
ter, and whose early training included
such duty as pealing potatoes, accord
ing to a letter written to friends here
soon sfter he left the campus, has at
last reached France. In a letter to
President Campbell he writes as follows:
"Since leaving Washington I have
traveled considerable, and we are at last
where the war is on. We had a very
fine trip across the water, with very
little icasicknesa and no eicitement
whatever from U-boats. We had a very
enjoyable atop and rest at our first city.
where we were given the opportunity to
see something of the people and coun
try, and all I can say is that I am very
glad to be here, for more reasons than
one. We later went to our headquarters
and in about four days three of us were
picked to go to the front, where we now
are some two and a halt miles back of
the front line. We are working like
real working men, along with the other
boys, and find our work even more inter
esting than I had expected. Our work
is being done on a much larger scale
than I expected. I am in hopes that I
will meet Walter, and continually in
quire from the boys we are working
with.

'Wo lad the interesting experience
and practice of flopping when the boche
were dropping some shells near where
we were working yesterday. They cer
tainly make a noise coming through the
air. Have learned at least to know what
sre incoming and what are outgoing
shells. The shelling does not bother us
nearly as much as the gas alarms at
night when we are sound asleep, and even
here I find that possible. They are
dropping some big fellows near our bil
lets, so guess I'll close and go out to
work. We are billeted in a very inter
esting old barn np in the hay loft."

hare extended their organization until
praetirally every section of the county
is represented by devoted volunteers who
are giving their time and calling upon
their neighbors to assist in a movement
which has as its object the conservation
of Jittle bits of food products which
might otherwise be wasted.
The women's service workers in Eu
gene so far have canned 505 quarts of
fruit and put up between SO and 100
glasss of jam and jelly, and state that
their work has just begun. No reports
have so far been received to iudkatp
what the women in other cities and
towns arc doing, but the workers in Eu
gene are confident the county total, at
the close of the season, will make a
god showing. Much will depend how
ever, upon the co-operation given by the
people in the county as a whole. The
fruit, sugar for preserving purposes and
jars must be donated. Those who can
not give these things, can assist through
contributions of money, if they desire.
Mrs. I L. Campbell is the state
chairman of the National League for
Women's Service. Mrs, A. I- Ingalls is
the county chairman. District chair

The canning of fruit is not the only
activity of the members of the National
League of Women's Service. They are
enrolled for any work that will help the
nation in war. A motor squad with 8
captains and tU) members has been or
ganized, and is ready at any time to
answer cslls for patriotic service. The
organization is also maintaining head
quarters through which contributions
may be made and where workers are
being registered, in the Coe store. Mrs.

Two American Red Cross Men
Brave Enemy Fire to Serve
Chocolate to Troops.
By FRANK J. TAYLOR
United Press Staff Correspondent
With the American Army in France,
June 19 (By Mail.) It gets mighty
chilly along toward morning in the
trenches, and a fellow needs something
hot to cheer him up and keep him
awake.
So figured Charles Sinkler, of Phila
delphia, and Harry O- Underwood, of
New York, who run a canteen for the
Bed Cross :n a Tillage two kilometers
from the lines, a place the Germans
delight in shelling, even though ifs but
a msss of ruins now.
One of these men couldn't get into
the army because he wss too old, so be
gave up his law practice to come over
and help the boys. The other had to do
something, and this was the only job he
co-.ild bind, near the front.
Every night these two men mske up
gallons of hot chocolate, and at midnig'.t
they wend their wsy out dark roads
through muddy trenches, and give the
doughboys on duty hot chocolate.
One point which they si-rve is where
French lines join with American. Here
you see Frenchmen snd Americana
waiting eagerly for their chocolate, offi
cers with the men, each holding his cuj.
You see it if you can see in darkness,
fur this is the very front, the farthest
out that any workers go to help the boys.
"Those fellows ought to be decorsted,"
said one appreciative doughboy. "You
don't mind coming out here with a gun
when you ran shoot. But you couldn't
dodge a shell if you had to carry those
big buckets of chocolate."

Flag Etiquette
(Prepared by the National Committee of Patriotic
Societies, Washington, D. C.)
When the colors are passing, the spectator, if a man,
should halt if walking, arise if sitting and uncover, holding the
headdress opposite the left shoulder with the right hand; If
bare-headed, he should salute with the right hand. A woman
should stand at attention as the Flag passes by.
When the Flag is waving from a stationary flagstr.ff or
pole it is not saluted with the hand.
In decorating, the flag should never be festooned or
draped. Always hung flat. If hung with stripes horizontal,
Union should be in upper left corner. If hung perpendicu
larly. Union should be at the right.
When the Flag is carried in parade, or when crossed with
other flags, the Stars and Stripes should always be at the right.
The law specifically forbids the use of and representa
tion of the Flag in any manner or in any connection with
merchandise for sale.
The Flag should be raised at sunrise and lowered at sun
set. It should not be displayed on stormy days or except
when under fire of the enemy, left out overnight. Although
there is no authoritative ruling which compels civilians to
lower the Flag at sundown, good taste should impel them to
follow the traditions of the Army and Navy in this sundown
ceremonial. Primarily the Flag i raised to be SEEN, and
secondly, the Flag is something to bo guarded, treasured, and
so tradition holds it shall not be menaced by the darkness. To
leave the Flag out at night, unattended, is proof of shiftlcss
ness, or at least carelessness.
On Memorial Day 'the Flag should be displayed at half
mast from sunrise until noon, and at the peak from noon un
til sunset. It should, on being retired never be allowed to
touch the ground.
When the "Star Spangled Banner" is played or sung,
uncover, stand and remain standing, IN SILENCE, until it
is finished.
Applause at the conclusion of the "Star Spangled Ban
ner" is out of place.
Worn-out and useless flags should be destroyed; by burn
ing. A Flag torn or frayed by the wind and weather should
never again be hoisted until it has been repaired. This is a
regulation of both the Army and Navy and should also be
followed by all civilians. . ..

That title will amine you, perhaps.
Terbaps you will say I sm a fool. On a

admit it: but not on this question. No,
brother: on this Il'ra wise. Just ss there
was good In the stoning of Htephen. In
the burning at the stake of a thousand
martyrs, ev.n in the Crucifiiion itself,
there is good In this war. And the good
is going to be grest because the side
that reycrcscnU the Brotherhood of Man
is going to win over the Minions of the
Heast in the end. It is written. If I
couldn't believe it, I could believe neither

worse than a million Hills rolled into

and deep chasm to be bridged by human
lives in the rugged but ever upward-leading
pathway of civilization. This is the
higher Tiew of the Truth.

srming Itself to fight for an ideal, throw
ing aff the lice of money-lovers and

in a terrible voice its love of democracy
and liberty and justice! There is good
In this, wonderful good.
I know men of us hnve suffered, and
men of us have died, oh, many of tbem;
hut they have auffeded in noble unsel
fishness, and they hsve died even bet
ter than they lived, though they may
have lived well. I know mothers have
given their sons, wives their husbands,
sisters their brothers; it was hard to
make these supreme sacrifices, bitter
bard; but they are better mothers and
wives and sisters, better women than
they ever were before and they are
glad, every one, that tbey had Bona and
husbands and brothers to give in the
cause of justice! Itlood haa alwaya been
the price that humanity has psid to keep
the path of civilixntion ever upward and
farther and farther from wolfish bar

well as a fham in the rosd. Its lessons
of sacrifice snd unselfishness, of suffer
ing for the sake of future generatlona,
wilt not be forgotten in a aenre of years;
they will be eternal, everlasting, im

must be psid for, and the world Is now
