CHARLES CLARK TO GIVE ILLUSTRATED VAR LECTURE, Present. war conditions and their relations to Italy, will be brought out in a lecture by Dr. Charles Upson Clark, director of the American school for classical studies in Rome, in a lecture at the Hill auditorium Feb. 28. The lecture will be illustrated by pictures loaned by the Italian government. Dr. Clark is brought here by the University, on the non- residenti lecture course, and offers the lecture free to the public. After paying his actual traveling expenses out of his fees Dr. Clark turns the balance over to the fund for the relief and education of Italian soldiers who have been disabled during the war.1 (From the Patriotic News Service of the National Committee of Patriotic Societies, Washington, D. C.) It is vital to a powerful navy to have powerful guns and powerful ships, but they are only so much well-fash- ioned steel unless they are manned by officers and men with trained minds and hands, with steady nerves and heads. We have today in the navy all the men we need until ships under construction and repair are furnished and put in commission. The greatest need, therefore, is for officers who know how to sail a ship, how to man its guns, how to organize it to fight. The Navy's reliance upon the Naval Academy for educated and capable of- ficers in peace times is well placed. Since the war began this fine institu- tion, unsurpassed in the world, has been doubled, but today its facilities are inadequate to graduate officers as rapidly as they are needed. But all the normal sources of of- ficers combined did not serve to give as many as the expanding navy need- ed, and we turned with confidence to the civilians with love of the sea and some knowledge of seamanship to qualify themselves for command. Be- fore the war was declared there were some reserve officers who had shown talent and are giving evidence of abil- ity, but many of the men initiated into the glorious company of naval officers came direcf from civil life, and upon their willingness to learn, their swift- ness and their aptitude we must de- pend for a large increase in the num- ber of those who are to be given com- mand of our ships. The navy has given warm welcome to college students and college grad- uates. I wish I could personally shake 'hands with each college man who has entered or will enter the service. I would like.to say to each "You will touch here with the stim- ulating traditions dear to all who love the navy. "Your country has confidence in you. You will justify that confidence in pro- portion as you master the work which you are entering. Its rewards come only to those of good courage whose minds are wholly given to learning the mysteries of modern fighting craft. "I am empowered officially to wel- come the youthful defenders of our- country. You come as citizens called to duties of citizenship in time of war. When civil liberty is at stake, civilians become warriors. So today the repub- lic has gone to war! "As you may be called into service you will go to the fleet, to the patrol, to the transports, to whatever duty you will be assigned with the feeling that you have shown that civilians can do whatever there is need for them to do. "You are engaged in a righteous war, and when faith in right shall triumph over faith in might, as it surely will, you will share withathe veterans of the navy the gratitude of a peple who have never looked to their nav"yIn vain. "I do not know what particular ser- vice you will be called upon to do. I can not lift the veil. One thing I; do know, hewever, and that'is that you will be worthy of the noble work ilito; which you enter. May the all-wise Providence give you His strength to; bear the world to an early peace-a peace that shall insure justice and; right alike to all peoples and all na- tions." Miss Agnes .E.
