Waclaw J. Szewczynski, '19E, will
address the Polonia club at the meet-
ing to be held in McMillan hall at 2:00
o'clock this afternoon. His subject
will be "Polish Culture;Its Value to
the Polish Youth in America." Jan
J. Cwierko, '19E, will also speak at
this meeting, his subject being, "Life
Among the Polish Students at Val-
paraiso University." A discussion of
the points brought up by these men
will follow.
At the next meeting of the club, to
be held Sunday evening, December 19,
there will be a discussion of the great
Polish poet, Adam Miczkiewicz, and
his works. The anniversary of
Miczkiewicz's birth occurs on. Decem-
ber 24, but as that day will come dur-.
ing vacation, the club will celebrate
on December 19. A farewell social
will also be held at that time.
During the second semester, the club
plans to discuss Polish literature. The
first meeting will be devoted to a
study of the first period of Polish liter-
ature, the Latin period, when the writ-
ers were priests and wrote only for
priests. This periods extends to the
close of the fourteenth century. The
second meeting of the second semester
will be given over to the study of the
second period, when the writers, who
belonged to the aristocracy, wrote
only for the aristocracy. This period
extends to the close of the eighteenth
century. During the remainder of the
year, the club will discuss the third
period, which includes the present.
This period began with the partition
of Poland, and has producedaa real
national literature, written by men of
all classes.

ments of life, and this without any
serious delays. In time of war they
have been behind none in enlisting.
At the present time on the Continent
the various colleges and universities
of the country have many represen-
tatives in various services, notably in
the ambulance service, who are hard-
ly a discredit to the academic spirit.
He who should try to show that col-
lege men in their post-graduate car-
eers were generally inert and ineffect-
ive would certainly undertake a most
discouraging task.
Should Training be Introduced?
But now, secondly, granting that the
zeal and the vigor are not lacking,
should they be turned to military
training? Should the universities in-
troduce compulsory military training?
This question is primarily one of the
true purposes of the institutions, and
then of the real gain, if any, from di-
verting or compromising that purpose
in such time of emergency as the
present.
Not in Curriculum.
What the true purpose is has been
intimated already. Most commonplace-
ly put, it is education. Most people,
it is true, would make this word edu-
cation comprise anything that counts
for effective citizenship, and so would
add military training to the 'curricu-
lum at once. But such people either
are in a panic or are in the habit of
thinking loosely, however excellent
and patriotic their intent. They take
no thought of so important a princi-
ple as division of labor, being possibly
under the delusion of the hour that
an important thing like that belongs
only to making of automobiles. Just
as the crowd concludes that a great
authority in some particular subject is
an authority in all, so they would have
the university serve the country, not
only in the natural, academic way,
but also in all other ways for which
demand arises.
To speak broadly, however, besides
the university it takes the church and
the state, not to mention many other
agencies, such as the family and so-
ciety, to "educate" men andwomen to
be good citizens. Among them the
labor of making good citizens is di-
vided.

practical thing to call for a service
different from this and more fitting
and characteristic.
All Have Military Applications.
Nearly if not quite every subject in
the curriculum, every science from hy-
giene to mechanics, has its military
application. Important special cours-
es, furthermore, historical and scien-
tific, dealing with military affairs in
all their aspects, may be given, and
also may be depended upon to serve
the country substantially in both of-
fense and defense, helping to preparer
a class of men, as they would, for
those important positions, whether at
the front or not, in the conduct of
war, where such preparation is indis-
pensable. Through the proper than-1
nels the universities will supply their'
full quota of soldiers, but the needs.
of war today are farsfrom being only
soldiers. In the interests of effective
preparation military training is not the
proper business of the university.
Camp :training Far Superior
Furthermore, when in point of in-
dubitable fact a month or six weeks at
a military camp will give students
more training than they can get in a
whole year on the adopted or pro-
posed three-hour-per-week schedule,
there can be little case left for mili-
tary training as a part of a univer-
sitiy's curriculum. If any case were
left, the serious and familiar objec-
tions to it being made compulsory at
a university-even at a State univer-
sity which, as may be submitted, is
still a university, not the State-would
seem to be finally conclusive.
Other Physical Training Better.
YEt somebody exclaims here "Mili-
tary training is so good physically
and so beneficial morally!" Possibly;
but, when this is said, as very often
it has been lately, indeed by no less a
person than Mr. Taft, in a recent in-
terview, the physical and the moral
benefit are not the real interest, and
one has to suspect the intended argu-
ment of being more ad populum than
sound or genuine. Among other
grounds of such suspicion, the pro-
pounders of this argument in most
cases have found themselves actively
interested in the physical and moral
welfare of students very suddenly. If
a thing be not true to the life and
spirit of an institution, if it be out of
place, there is indeed excellent reason

federation. Surely, apart from all
other considerations, nothing is so es-
sential to military success in prepara-
tion or in subsequent action as cen-
tralization. The central government,
then, should assume the undertaking
in toto; including-if it isn't unpatri-
otic to think of this-the not small
item of expense.' Any other method
of producing the desired result is
"shoddy," and, alas, as not a few
would be likely to add, also American.
Do the Thing Right.
If the thing must be done, let it be
done right. Impulsive, sporadic ef-
fort at a college here and a university
there may still be commendable, but
it is also feeble and even at times,
as one thinks of it, pathetic. Let the
universities, if they would lead-for
once-in something big, lead by insist-
ing that the central government do its
duty.
Military experts, it will be said, are
nowadays cordially approving and aid-
ing the present efforts of the educa-
tioIl institutions, but the suspicion
is quite unavoidable that their approv-
al is on half-a-loaf-better-than-no-
bread grounds. Soldiers or citizens
who expect war or feel the danger of
war should be, or quickly become, suf-
ficiently rational and intelligent, say
even sufficiently -academic, to call for
effective, centralized, governmental
preparation.

-IILITIA BOAIRD WILL CONVENE
Naval Body to Discuss Plans for
State Aid on Regulations.
Washington, D. C., Nov. 27.-The na-
tional naval militia board will meet
in Washington on Dec. 6 to consider
plans by which the states can put
the new militia regulations into ef-
fect.
The new regulations which have
been put into effect by Secretary of
the Navy Daniels cannot be made ef-
fective without the co-operation on
the part of the various states. To ob-
tain this it is believed that many of
them will have to enact legislation.
The board has gone into the que-
tion thoroughly and wll make recoi-
mendations when it meets here.
Utah Students Finally Get Open Forum
A proposed open Forum at the Uni-
vesity of Utah had to be referred to the
attorney general of the state before
the university officials would permit
the plans to be carried out. The de-
cision given was to the effect that
the Forum would be perfectly legal
and the university will permit the
students to carry their plan through,
with the provision that the university
can exercise control over the organi-
zation.

Unh ersity's Part Is Narrow
Plainly, then, the university's part
is narrow, special, its peculiar inter-
est being scientific, seeking to impart
information, understandng and men-
tal power, and philosophical, seeking
to impart point of view and vision.
Andsuch beingthe university's edu-
cation or its part in the general edu-
cation, each one of the other agencies
having its own part andpurpose, there
is surely something to be said for the
real advantage of maintaining this
division of labor in time of emergency.
If ever useful and efficient, it should
be so then. Instead of compromising'
a university's function with military
training, figuratively or literally set-
ting up barracks and armories beside
iecture halls and laboratories and li-
braries, it would seem to be, the more1

for doubting either the physical or the1
moral benefit of it. Physical training
may be better secured in other ways;
the military motives and associations1
are not what gives it worth; and, ast
for the moral value of military obedi-f
ence, of which much has been pro-t
claimed, .such obedience is not exactlyt
either intellectually or volitionally at
highly moral virtue.
Wisdom of the Policy.t
But, lastly, the doubt as to the wis-
dom, the wholly practical wisdom of
military training being introduced into
universities is greatly increased, when
one reflects, not now negatvely that itv
is not consistent with the specific pur-a
pose of a university or with that de-t
sirable division of labor in the makingt
of citizens for war or peace, but posi-c
tively that the function of the speci-t
fic training of soldiers belongs nor-a
