University of Oregon, Eugene, Feb.
4. In four weeks, Lieutenant Colon
el John Leader, commandent of the
University battalion and Instructor in
military science, has converted the
300 men in the- University battalion,
who hardly knew the rudiments, of
the manual of arms into a unit work
ing with precision and accuracy.
Elgnt bours of military work a
week is being required of every man
in the University who is able to shoul
der a gun. All of the military in
struction is being carried on with the
idea that the men will have actual use
for it when they get to Europe. This
semester for the first time milltar
science Is being taught as a profession
and is becoming a major department
Instead of a side issue.
Colonel Leader is fitting his cadets
for officers. He believes that the
United States needs officers trained in
military science even more than it
needs privates.
President Campbell, who is at pre
sent in Washington, D. C, has been
sending encouraging messages in re
gard to a reserve officers' training
camp at the University. Application
for training camp rating has been
made.
Out on the University golf course
are being constructed trenches, dug
outs, machine gun emplacements,
barbed-wire entanglements, sapping
tunnels, first aid pits, sniping pits and
other contrivances of the battle front.
The art of camouflaging is not
being neglected. Colonel Leader has
called upon the girls to help in this.
A row of dummies labeled "Bos
che" is made to suffer while the cad
ets practice bayonet drill, and already
the boys are becoming adept in the
art of throwing dummy bombs.
Add to these the manual of arms,
drill, rifle practice, and lectures three
times a week by Colonel Leader and
you have an idea of the training un
der the present regime.
In all, the University Id offering
more than 20 different courses in mil
itary science. With an aim of being
tk. greatest, possible service to the
eouatayv tft UnkrwBity has made spe
cial provlste whereby everyone de
sirous of training is- given an oppor
tunity to secure the military training
offered here. Men may enter as spe
cial military students upon payment
of the entrance fee of five dollars,

Much of the output of the new factor

and employees to see that all pos
sible protection Is afforded and Jus
tlce is done to both, I have given the
best that Is in me, and that the re
suits obtained have been satisfactory
to the people of Oregon is Indicated
by repeated re-election and conse
quent endorsement of the clean, fear
less, and independant administration
of this office.
" As Labor Commissioner, my du
ties have carried me into every nook
and corner of the State. I know the
State, its resources, Its great possi

the busniessman's risks, difficulties
and requirements. I comprehend the

problems as they come before the
various boards of which the State
Treasurer Is a member.
"My knowledge of State business
and long training and experience in
handling public and private funds
certainly qualifies me for the other
duties of the State Treasurer.
"Under the present stress of our
national crisis, I believe that every
ounce of the State's resources should
be developed and utilized to the
greatest extent, and the expenditure
of public funds curtailed to the de
gree of absolute necessity, consistent
with efficient and conservative gov
