TUB CHANGED COLLEGE One of the places where the In fluence of the war is most notice able In America, is on the average college campus. The day when the college student was typified by the aportlly-attlred, cigaretto-suioking dandy, has happily : passed. His place has been taken by the young man who begins to realize that we are making history fast and that only the real thinker can take a real part In the making thereof. Every college In the land has Its quota of students serving with the colors. Upper classes are sorely de pleted. Their loss leaves the other with a far more serious attitude to ward their dally tasks. They take their studies more earnestly and are determinedly anxious to post them selves on such. subjects as political economy and history. The school year ot the average college student these days include in bis list of activities, the following: Speaking at movie theaters on war activities; selling Liberty bonds; working for state prohibition; help ing with Red Cross and Y. M. C. A. -work; and taking military drill as he never took it before. This type of student Is a wel comed Innovation. May his tribe in crease. COURSE IN PATRIOTISM The Minnesota Educational Asso ciation has given considerable thought of late to courses In pa triotism in the public schols of the state. The effort has been copied in several other states. Teachers are being urged to preserve the ideals which lie behind a real democracy. They are asked to Instill in the minds of the young, not so much the Idea of military success, as the perpetuity of those things which will make peace worth while when it does come. As a part of this work it has been found that defl nlte courses in patriotism are the only things that will adequately fill the demand. Possibly the children now passing through our schools may some day appreciate the wonderful Importance of the events in the midst of which they are growing to manhoodand womanhood. If their parents ap preciate it, they will make sure that these easily moulded minds are glv en the proper Impetus to study the meaning of democracy, what good SARATOGA CHIPS Fresh .

LAST WINTER HARD FOR RANGE STOCK Portland, Dec. 19. A continued Increase In the demand for permits to graze livestock on the national forests and the necessity of going ahead with the work of developing the forest ranges to the utmost are emphasized by Acting Forester A F. Potter In the annual report of the forest service. The winter season of 1916-17 was the most disastrous the range stock men of the west have known. Mr. Potter states. There have been years when the local losses were heavier, but never when the losses were so general in every range state. As a result of continued severe weather throughout the winter months and a scarcity of hay, which was hnrd to get at any price, stock men suffered severe losses. Washington, Dec. 19. The list of 19 members of the crew of the F-l, who lost their lives when their submarine was rammed by the F-3, contains names of 10 California men and three from the state of Wash ington.
