PERSHING RECOMMENDS THAT
ARMY CANTEEN STATIONS BE
TURNED OVER TO "Y"
One hundred and fifty tons of candy
has been purchased for the Sammies
in France by the Y. M. C. A., accord-
ing to a statement made at Lane hall
yesterday. Fifty tons of chocolate, 50
tons of gumdrops, and 50 tons of lem-
ondrops make up the order.
A contract was made recently for
the entire output of a lemondrop fac-
tory and this plant alone will turn
out 15 tons each month for the "Y"
canteens. General Pershing has rec-
ommended that all army canteens be
turned over to the "Y" for manage-
ment. This will probably warrant the
increasing of the original order.
"Y" Supplies Many Things
The Y. M. C. A. is practically the
only means through which the sol-
diers are able to purchase sweet
things and other luxuries at the front.
All supplies are sold at cost price to
the men. Among articles on Y. M. C..
A. shelves are: Canned fruits, crack-
ers, gum, sugar, cocoa, flour, choco-
late, cough drops, and tooth paste.
Refreshments Distributed
Sandwiches, cocoa, chocolate, and
coffee are distributed free to the men
before they go into the trenches and
during attacks. Stationery is also
given to the nen so that they may
write letters without inconvenience
at the green huts. More than 8,000,000
sheets of paper and 4,000,000 envelopes
are sent to France each month. Many
of these supplies are carried across
he seas in trunks of secretaries go-
ing to take up the work in France.

Camp Custer, Jan. 11.-Eighteen
inches of snow has finally prohibited,
the soldiers in camp from perform-
ing the regulation duties in the Cus-
ter trench area. A guard has also
been ordered placed in the district to
protect government property and ma-
terial.
The men are working 10 hours a
day, and are not granted any over-
night passes or week-end trips home.
Government officials are pleased at
the results shoaln by the new men in
camp, although the present training
is not as intensive as thpt which will
be meted out later.
Owing to the fact that a number
of enlisted men have made a practice
of writing for publications .for pay,
despite army regulations to the con-
trary, orders have been issued which
strictly forbid a continuance of the
practice. Even letters which are in-
tended for publication must hereafter
be submitted to the division censor.
Those who give uncensored soldier
letters to newspapers for publication
will therefore subject their friends to
embarrassment.
After Feb. 12 no man at Custer who
came into the service previous to Oct.
15 will be allowed to take out insur-
ance under the government plan.
More than $149,246,000 has been sold
so far.
English Capture Germans' Formulae
London, Jan. 11.-"The most im-
portant event in the economic war"
is what the London Daily Mail today
called the capture from the Germans
of 257 secret receipts for German dyes
which had been offered the govern-
ment. The formulae, is was stated,
will "shatter the German dye monop-
oly." According to the Mail, British
agents have been working for two
years to get the formulae.
Germans Offer Spaniards Indemnity
Madrid, Jan. 11.-The German gov-
ernment has offered to pay to the fam-
ily of Enrique Granados, the Spanish
composer, $165,000 as indemnity for
the loss of their father. Enrique Gran-
ados and his wife were lost in the
sinking of the British cross channel
steamer Sussex in March, 1916.
Cambridge, England, Jan. 11.- The
senate of the 'University of Cambridge
has appointed a committee to consid-
er educational collaboration with Am-
erican universities. On the committee
are Dr. Shipley, vice-chancellor of the
university; Professor Adami, Dr. Sor-
ley, and Mr. Lapsley, all Cambridge
men who are graduates of American
universities.
It is Interesting also to note that
Trinity college, the biggest education-
al institution in Cambridge university,
has just apponted as one of its four
tutors Gaillard T. Lapsley, an Amer-
ican citizen born in Philadelphia, and
a graduate of Harvard. The work of
the tutors of Trinity is somewhat sim-
ilar to that of the dean of college in
an American university. They look
after and superintend the private life
of the undergraduates and are the of-
ficials with whom the parents corres-
pond, and to whom they express their
anxieties. The move may be said to
indicate the very genuine reaching out
in friendly co-operation toward Amer-
ican universities on the part of Cam-
bridge.
A pamphlet is under preparation by
the vice-chancellor indicating what
can be done in the way of teaching for
research students at Cambridge, and
steps are being taken to tabulatefor
future Cambridge students the facili-
ties for research work in the great
American centers of study. Of the
4,000 undergraduates of Cambridge
university, there are only 200 remain-
ing in Cambridge, and work done in
this direction can hardly be operative
until after the war.

Would-be Officers Find Training Hard
Camp Funston, Kan., Jan. 11.-Ap-
proximately a dozen candidates for
commissions in the third officers'
training camp have already fallen by
the wayside. The intensive schedule
caused them to decide to go back to
the ranks as privates and to take
chances of winning their shoulder
straps by heroic action. But on the
whole the majority of the candidates
do not seem discouraged by the inten-
sive work.

Amsterdam, Jan. 11.-Declaring that
the ordinary Prussian soldier is edu-
cationally unfit for democratic gov-
ernment, Prof. Ulrich Kahrstedt con-
tributes to the Kreuz Zeitung an arti-
cle on his studies of the mentality of
Teuton troops at the front.
"I have for months interrogated
soldiers on all our fronts," he says,
"and have found that among the
Rhinelanders, Bavarians, and Sles-
ians, 10 per cent of the men do not
even know the correct title of the
German emperor. In the summer of
1915, five per cent of our men did not
know what powers were at war, while
to this day three per cent are ignorant
of the fact that we are at war with
Japan.
"In practically every regiment I
have found non-commissioned officers
who thought we were fighting against
the French Emperor Napoleon. Six-
ty per cent of our men do not know
the name of their chief of staff, and
40 per cent are unable to answer the
question whether the Carpathians lie
on our eastern or western front."
