SIXTY-ONE RETURNED SOLDIERS and sailors are taking advantage, of the vocational and preparatory courses offered by the college. Thirty-seven of these men are casuals sent here by the Federal Board, with all expenses paid, and with previous educational training varying all the way from seventh and eighth grade work to post graduate work. These are all men who could not be given a clear discharge because of some disability, and they are allowed to choose their own course and college, wi th in certain broad limitations. Most of these men are electing agriculture. Many of them will be given elementary training, such as is offered in the college preparatory work, before taking the technical work. Twenty-four men are taking the preparatory course for returned soldiers and sailors who have not completed their high school work. These men come at their own expense. This preparatory work is in algebra, geometry, physics, and English, ' with physical t ra ining for all who are physically able to take it.
T H E TOTAL ENROLLMENT to date is 1,404.
RETURNING SOLDIERS, who are entering college th is fall, will be given full college credit for their war service. World War veterans, whether they have served in camps in th is country or on the battlefields of France are substituting their a rmy work and experience for the mil i tary courses and are relieved from drill. Special equipment including field arti l lery mater ia l and possibly some coast art i l lery pieces will be sent to the college this fall for use in instruction. Already a number of machine guns and automatic rifles have been furnished to the department.
T H E DELEGATES to the D. A. R. convention in Lansing were enter ta ined at tea in the par lors of the Woman's Building Thursday afternoon. This nineteenth annual conference of the Daughters of the American Revolution of Michigan has been in session in Lansing at the Woman's Club House for three days, and the meet ing closed Thursday. Immediately after the final program, the delegates were driven to the college and around the campus for inspection, and tea was served a t four o'clock. Women of prominence and influence from all over the state and adjoining states were present. The Eas t Lansing members of the D. A. R. were the enter ta inment committee for the afternoon. Among these were Miss Eudora Savage, new dean of women; • Mrs. L. E. Landon, Mrs.
L R. Taft, Mrs. A. K. Chittenden, Miss Ber tha Hollister, and Mrs. G. W. Bissell.
The FIRST UNION PARTY and Get-together of the year was held last Saturday evening, October 4, at the new gymnasium. This was the first social event of the college year and served as an an "acquaintance" party for new students. The gymnasium, permission for the use of which was specially granted for th i s occasion was crowded. I t is the plan of the Union Board to hold three enter ta inments each term, two of which will probably be dancing part ies.
N E W NAMES have been given the courses in home economics. "H. A." and "H. S." now replace the old "D. A." and "D. S." These new letters s tand for Household Arts and Household Science, respectively, instead of Domestic Art and Domestic Science. Home economics a lumnae will agree tha t these new names are an improvement over the old, and carry more dignity.

T H E SHORT COURSES in agriculture, planned especially for Michigan boys and girls, will be given at t h e college as usual dur ing the coming winter. The first of these courses, tha t in general agriculture, opens October 27. Ashley M. Berridge, '11, is director of the short courses.
CLUB D, THE LARGEST EATING CLUB on the campus is undergoing changes and i ts facilities are being improved to make i t accommodate 500 , men. Mechanical dishwashers and other up to date ki tchen equipment is being installed tha t will make the Wells Hall club the best equipped dining room on the campus. Mrs. Olive Far leman who operated Club D for so many years has ret i red from its stewardship and has been succeeded by Mrs.
James who before the Will iams Hall fire was director of Club A. Mrs. Far leman recently purchased the Dr. Allen house in Eas t Lansing and continues to board and. room a select few of "her boys."
A L L STUDENTS MUST take gym th is year. Every underclassman, including sophomores and juniors mus t take physical t ra ining. The fall work is s ta r t ing out of doors. Dur ing the winter months, most of the work mus t necessarily be done in the gymnasium. For the sake of uniformity and to insure the safety of the floor, all s tudents mus t have regulat ion suits and rubber soled shoes, and the athletic department has purchased a large number of these sui ts and shoes at cost, as a mat te r of convience and financial saving to the students .
T H E AUGUST 2ND NUMBER of the Saturday Evening Post gave a half-page i l lustrat ion of the burning of t he engineering building and shops in 1916. The i l lustrat ion was used in connection with an advert isement for a certain brand of fire extinguishers.
BRIGADIER GENERAL HARRY H. BAN-HOLTZ who was commandant at M. A. C. in 1896-99 was recently appointed the American representat ive on the Inter Allied Military Commission which was sent to Budapest to investigate t he Hungar ian si tuation. General Bandholtz reached the Hungar ian capitol about the middle of August. Previously he was in charge of the entire mil i tary police organization of the expeditionary forces.
A N E W NATIONAL RECORD for the elevation made by the pilot balloons of the Weather Service was obtained a t the Eas t Lansing weather bureau during the summer. On the afternoon of July 2 a 30-inch gas bag was still discernible to the m a n on the ground when it had at ta ined an elevation of 25 kilometers, about 15 1-2 miles up. The best previous record was made at one of the Texas stations last year when an elevation of * 22 1-2 kilometers was recorded. When the last observation was made on the Eas t Lansing performance, the pilot balloon was ten miles away from the college. According to the observer Lansing has far bet ter air conditions for an- aeroplane stopping place than have either Grand Rapids or Detroit. The skies in this vicinity are not clouded so frequently as they are in the vicinity of her sister cities and the overcast conditions pass off sooner in this section of the peninsula than they do at other places.

TEACHERS' SALARIES. A great many journals and maga
zines are presenting in current issues the menace to the nation of the very low salaries prevailing for teachers, part icularly those of colleges and the higher insti tutions of learning. "Higher Educat ion in Danger," "Low Salaries a Menace to Our Agricultural Interests ," "Are Cheap Teachers Good for Your Children?" are titles of some recent articles by college presidents and other authorit ies — "scare" head lines which in reality are not nearly as "scarey" as the situation demands. The remark of President Lowell of Harvard , as he cited to his audience a motorman making a wage of 60c an hour and a professor making 18c a hour, "which is worth more, minding the t r a in or t ra ining the mind?" is a much quoted epigram.
Some very interesting figures have recently been collected from agricultura l colleges over the country including M. A. C. as to the numbers from the teaching staffs of each who have left their professorships or instructional positions to enter business posit ions at higher salaries. The results are summed up in the following quoted from an agricultural magazine:
"A western college lost twelve of i ts faculty in one year for increases in salary ranging from $200 to $1,500 a year. An eastern college lost eighteen instructors, assistant professors and professors who made a total gain in salary by changing of $9,350. A southern college lost eight with gains in salaries from $300 to $3,000, the la t te r from a commercial concern.
"One of the central western colleges lost eleven men who gained an average salary of $942.73 by changing. Since the fall of 1916 one great insti-
• tu t ion has lost twenty-nine men at increases of from $100 to $2,800 a year.
Another eastern college lost twenty-eight. One in New England lost sixteen. A southern school has lost about twenty men in the last eight years. In two years a western college lost sixteen men.
"So it goes, east, west, north and south are all h i t in the same way and for the same reason, inadequate salaries.
" 'The situation at the present t ime is indeed precarious. Commercial organizations and agr icul tura l organizations other than those directly connected with the college are a t t ract ing 'many of our best men. ' Thus writes the president of an eastern agricultura l college."
Harvard University is now undert ak ing a campaign for $15,000,000 with which to "reendow Harvard ." Their program is pr imari ly for salary increases, proposed to range from 50 to 80 per cent in many of thei r departments . The alumni who "are the greatest asset of any college—the men who call it their a lma mater , who honor it with their allegiance a t all times, and who form its ul t imate source of s trength when there are difficult problems to be faced," will raise the $15,000,000 for Harvard .
There is no reason why Harvard should be ahead of any other American inst i tut ion in th is endeavor to properly pay teachers, but the fact that Harvard, one of our greatest universities has s tar ted an active campaign for the avowed purpose of rais ing salaries is encouraging and should pave the way for a national movement.
The nation's a t tent ion must be drawn to this mat te r so vital to our higher educational system, for if this falls down the whole s t ruc ture of our common schools must fall.
* * * In order to conserve space and at
the same time make the Record larger and more newsy we are making use of a smaller type face for the alumni notes and such other art icles as the State Board minutes and certain reports. Through this means we shall be able to pr int considerable more news tha t will be of interest, some of which we have found difficulty in using in the past, because of lack of space. We t rust tha t the finer type will be read with no ill feelings against the editors or the conditions tha t make it necessary, and hope that there will not be need to use i t in a quanti ty that will be t i r ing.
DIED IN SERVICE.
Edwin Harold Ewing, '17.
Edwin Harold Ewing, with '17, was killed in action August 4, 1918, at Fismes. Ewing was a corporal in charge of the battalion runners in the 126th infantry, 32d division, and had served in such a capacity dur ing the entire Chateau. Thierry battle. I t is
reported that he received a shell wound in his temple late in the afternoon and died within an hour.
He enlisted June, 1916, in Company G, 32d Division, and served on" the border with the 32d Division during 1916-17. He sailed across with Company I, 126th Infantry, in January, 1918. Commenting upon his service the battalion adjutant, Captain Cornell has wr i t ten the following to his father:
"Corp. Ewing was detailed as my representative to inform the 3d Battalion of 2d Battal ion movements and report by runners assigned to him. A very responsible position. He kept me properly informed dur ing the entire Chateau Thierry battle. On reaching the Vesle river, he took it upon himself to bring an important message through a very heavy German barrage. He came through perfectly cool and calm. Was wounded going back. He had a wonderful character, and I am highly honored in being able to tell you of his bravery."
Ewing spent two years at M. A. C. entering in 1913 in the Engineering Division. Before entering the army he was factory efficiency expert a t the Shaw Electric Crane Works at Muskegon, Mich.

1919 CLASS TURNS G I F T TO MEMORIAL BUILDING.
The class of 1919 has just turned the funds they had collected toward a class gift into the Union Memorial Fund. The money was first solicited for a gift to the campus which was to take the form of an entrance gateway at the western approach to the college grounds. Upon the launching of the Union Memorial Building project the decision of the class as to the disposal of the gift money was changed in favor of the Building Fund. The gift subscription thus far amounts to about $250.00.

An interest ing glimpse of the old "editorial" rooms of the Record in the chemistry building dur ing the early weeks of its existence is contained in a recent let ter from Thorn Smith, '95, now the firm of Diack and I Smith, chemicaj engineers of Detroit.
To know of those men who conceived the Record and the work they did to place it firmly upon its feet and make it successful has been an
. inspirat ion to us who work upon it now—an inspiration we wish we might transcribe into its content.
Mr. Smith says: "I was " there" when the first Rec
ord came out and along with E. D. Partr idge, '96, C. E. Meyers, '96, W. L. Anderson, Dick Crosby, '93, and others, helped mail many issues from the old Qualitative room in the chemical building. We were asked to suggest names for the Record and Ken-yon Butterfield was the winner. F r a n k Kedzie was the real boss and the rest of us made paste and stuck stamps. Meyers, as a former pr in ter ' s devil,

assumed a good deal of knowledge for a li t t le fellow but the main th ing was the Record. I wrote ads and one t ime was instructed by the "boss" to go down to the pr inter ' s and make up the forms. I did it all r ight and the pr inter never got the credit that was due him."
ALBION GIVES AGGIES CLOSE SQUEEZE.
By. the narrowest kind of margin M. A. C. squeezed a victory from Albion in the curtain raiser on the Aggie field Saturday, 14 to 13. Lack of speed in the Big Green backfield and failure to plug the holes on the par t of the line nearly cost the Fa rmers the game, only the poor at tempt of a kick by Dean of the visitors after the first touchdown saving the day.
Ramsey and Coryell were the biggest ground gainers for the Aggies, both end and tackle making big gains when called to the backfield to carry the ball on frequent occasions. Schwei made ssveral substantial bucks, but he was exceptionally slow in s ta r t ing and several t imes missed the hole made by the line for his play altogether. Hammes seemed to lack his usual drive, too, and Snider who is jus t recovering from an injury received in practice had to save himself to such an extent tha t he was almost, useless in the backfield.
The big line did not play up to i ts s tandard game, allowing the visi tors to walk s t ra ight through its strongest par t s on numerous plays.
The entire Albion team was fast and the backfield proved to be a whirlwind.
Franson won the toss and the Aggies won their downs in apple pie order until it seemed tha t the visitors were completely outclassed. An expensive fumble, however, gave the Methodists the ball on their twenty-five yard line and it was soon carried over for the first touchdown. Dean's failure to kick goal lost them the game. In the second half Schwei missed a pass from center and Kan-ago with no one between him and the goals scooped it up for a second touchdown. Before the half was up the F a r m e r line took a brace and with passes and line bucks finally carried Springer over for the first M. A. C. touchdown. The third quarter ended when the Aggies had advanced the ball to within a foot of the Albion goal. Hammes went over for M. A. C.'s second touchdown in the fourth quar ter and Schwei kicked goal from a difficult angle. Albion staged a comeback at this point and the outcome seemed precarious for a time but was placed out of danger by Coryell and Ramsey.

That the Aggies varsity is in for two weeks of the hardest kind of razzing was promised by coaches after the game Saturday. That there should have been a much wider margin in the opening game, and that the Big Green should have been on the long end of it is the opinion of the tu tors and they are going to see to it that a much better outfit meets the Yostmen at Ann Arbor a week from Saturday.
Two games this week will be good practice for the farmers, and the Western State Normal will be a close affair unless a decided brace is taken in tha Agg'e squad. The normal team generally comes pret ty well bolstered and this year is not expected to be an exception.
M. A. C. WINNER OVER ALMA 46-6.

CORTRIGHT, 11, GETS FIRST BALL WORLD SERIES.
The first ball to be pitched in the opening game in the world series at Cincinnati last week, is now the property of I. J. Cortright, '11, Oldsmobile agent in South Bend, Indiana, and former Aggie athlete and coach. "Cort" and Mrs. Cortright were si t t ing in the stand at the opening game, when, in the second inning, a fly ball came through the air s t ra ight for them. Using his own baseball knack, "Cort" reached up and caught it and as is customary in the world series' games, is retaining the ball as a much-prized souvenir.

M. A. C. MAN PREPARES TREATISE FOR LEAGUE OF NATIONS.
Butterfield '91 , A u t h o r of Agr icu l tu ra l Documen t , Considered by Peace
C o m m i s s i o n .
The following presentat ion of world agricultural interests and the importance to be placed upon agricul ture and its development in any consideration of a world-wide peace has been prepared and laid before the Peace Commission by Kenyon L. Butterfield, '91. This document, which was considered by the representatives of all of the world powers, si t t ing to draw up terms of a permanent world peace, serves to show how important are the agricultural functions of M. A. C. It
*is a distinct honor to Mr. Butterfield that he should be called upon by the world powers to draw up a s ta tement upon agricul ture for the consideration of the Peace Conference. Fur ther , it indicates tha t the Michigan Agricultural College is substant ia t ing her claim to excellence in that one of her graduates should be so fitted as to be chosen by world emmisaries to draw up a treatise on agriculture for their consideration in sett l ing this great matter of peace for the world. Memorandum on Agriculture in the
League of Nations. Presented to American Peace Com
mission, Paris , March 15, 1919. The important interests of t rade and
labor have already been recognized in the plans for internat ional cooperation. The equally significant interests of agriculture have apparently thus far not been considered.
In the present crisis the farmers of nearly all countries are practically voiceless in the councils of the nations. They have no internat ional organization, no world conference, no cooperating delegations, to speak their
need and to contribute their mind to solving the common problem. Yet no question before the Peace Conference is more fundamental to world welfare than the rural question. This is t rue because:
1. An adequate supply of food for all the people of the world is an essential item in a program of permanent world peace. • A hungry nation or even a hungry group within a nation forms a breeding ground for discontent and revolt; a hungry world means chaos.
2. This necessary food supply must be furnished by the farmers of the world. Together with other soil-grown products that comprise a significant portion of the raw materials of industry, this supply depends completely upon the toil, the effectiveness, the intelligence of those who actually work upon the land.
3. The conservation and improvement of the soil should be one of the chief concerns in world statesmanship. No other natura l resource compares with the maintenance of soil fertility in its bearing upon the future of the race. But no fiat of government nor resolution of conferences can ensure the proper use and care of the soil; only as each individual farmer intelligently tills his land and carefully, conscientiously husbands its resources can future generations as well as the present population of the nat ions, of the ear th be assured their food. It is necessary therefore to provide adequate means of t raining, stimulating, and encouraging the masses of farmers in every land.
4. In all justice, the working farmer must have the equivalent of a "living wage." Merely to grow a meagre sustenance for himself and his family, with a scant surplus to sell in the market , as a result of employing all the daylight hours in hard physical labor, does not meet the terms of permanent social justice. The farmers must therefore have a reasonable reward; at the very least they must have fair play in the world's economic ar rangements .
5. The possession and use of the land by those who actually till it give guarantees of public peace, of intelligent citizenship, of human welfare, hardly acquired by any other means. Therefore the land should be controlled by those who use it. Access to ownership should be made easy; land leases should favor the worker; land proprietorship should be encouraged to the utmost.
6. The farmer and his family are of more consequence even than the farm. Education, both industrial and cultural, is necessary to intelligent farming and to development of mind. Good local government, health, recreation, conveniences, art is t ic appreciation, morality are essential elements in a democratic community. The farmer must have these fundamental requirements of manhood or become practically a slave to unending toil.
7. If the xoorld is to become truly and fully democratic, it is necessary that the farmers of the world should not only understand and appreciate democracy, but they should fully share in all its advantages—economic, political, and social. More than four-fifths of the huge populations of Russia, India, China', live on the land. Poland, the Czecho-Slovak terr i tories, Jugo Slavia, Asia Minor, Mesopotamia, Persia, all are dominantly rural . Africa, South America, Austral ia are agricultura l ra ther than industr ial areas. In the United States nearly half the people live under rural conditions. In France 48 per cent of the people are farmers. Even highly urban nat ions such as England and Belgium are finding the farm problem acute and significant.
8. A wise plan of international cooperation in agriculture will provide the mechanism whereby adequate and accurate facts may be obtained, organized, interpreted, means by which governments may cooperate in spreading popular education for farming and country life and in t ra in ing an effective rural leadershp; legislation which protects the interests of a farmer as a producer, and simplifies and cheapens the process of distribution of soil-grown products; and arrangements whereby the exigencies and uncertainties of climate and weather and the at tacks of plant and animal diseases and pests may be guarded against so far as humanly possible.
9. No plan of agricultural cooperation on an internat ional „ basis will suffice, unless it encourages to the utmost the free organization of the farmers -themselves, for whatever ends they may desire—economic, social, political. Only so can agricul ture be fully democratized, only so can farmers express their convictions, voice their experiences, seek an answer to their needs, and contribute their part to the rebuilding of the world. Organization for cooperative buying, selling, and credit especially should be encouraged in every nation. The effective organization of local farming communities for both industr ia l and social purposes is fundamental to the larger rural democracy.
10. It is vital to the maintenance of the world settlement that an instrur mentality be created to promote international cooperation among those ivho till the soil. Therefore the League of Nations should, make provision for the establishment and perpetual maintenance of means whereby the working farmers of the world shall be enabled to cooperate constantly and fully, in furnishing the world with food, in securing jus t rewards for their labor, in improving their methods of farming, in enriching their land, in organizing an active and satisfying community life, and in mainta in ing a high degree of democratic citizenship.

M . A. C. MEN DIRECTORS AT A. E. F . UNIVERSITY.
In a letter received during the summer Howard G. Hall, '90, gives the following brief description of the activities of three M. A. C. alumni in the University at Beaune, F rance :
"The college was represented at the American Expedit ionary Force University at Beaune, Cote d'Or, France, by a t least three former s tudents , Dr. Edgar A. Burnett , '87, now of Nebraska University, Dr. Kenyon L. But-terfield, '91, of the Massachusetts Agricultural College, and Professor Howard J. Hall, '90, of the Leland Stanford Junior University.
Dr. Butterneld is one of the three members of the Army Educat ional Commission having all the educational work of the American Expedit ionary Forces in its charge. In all a rmy schools, post, divisional, and in the university nearly 300,000 students have been enrolled in voluntary classes.
The work of Dr. Butterfield is noteworthy. As a member of the Army Educational Commission his position has been one of great responsibility. Out of the large experiment in education conducted in France there n:ay be ultimately recommended to Congress a system of national schools combining civil and mili tary t raining, agricul ture and citizenship. If Dr. Butterfield's ideas are embodied in the system, public service ra ther than mili tary t ra in ing will be stressed and the organization will represent a step forward towards a great widening of educational opportunity, and towards democracy worked out through education."

The "Constitution" of To-day—Electrically Propelled
THE U. S. S. "New Mexico," the first battleship of any nation to be electri
cally propelled, is one of the most important achievements of the scientific age. She not only develops the maximum power and, with electrical control, has greater flexibility of maneuver, which is a distinct naval advantage, but also gives greater economy. At 10 knots, her normal cruising speed, she will steam on less fuel than the best turbine-driven ship that preceded her.
The electric gene ra t i ng plant, totaling 28,000 horsepower, and the propulsion equipment of the great super-dreadnaught were built by the General Electric Company. Their operation has demonstrated the superiority of electric propulsion over old-time methods and a wider application of this principle in the merchant marine is fast making progress.
Figures that tell the Story of Achievement
Length—624 feet Width—97 feet Displacement—32,000 tons Fuel capacity —a million
gallons (fuel oil) Power—28,000 electrical
horsepower Speed—21 knots
Six auxiliary General Electric Turbine-Generators of 400 horsepower each, supply power for nearly 500 motors, driving pumps, fans, shop machinery, and kitchen and laundry appliances, etc.
Utilizing electricity to propel ships at sea marks the advancement of another phase cf the electrical industry in which the General Electric Company is the pioneer. Of equal importance has been its part in perfecting electric t r a n s p o r t a t i o n on l and , transforming the potential energy of waterfalls for use in electric motors, develop
ing the possibilities of electric lighting and many other similar achievements.
As a result, so general arc the applications of electricity to the needs of mankind that scarcely a home or individual today need be without the benefits of General Electric products and service.
An illustrated booklet describing the ' New Mexico," entitled. The Electric Ship," will be sent upon request. Address
