These do their all THE CONTRIBUTION OF T-IE COLLEGES When the President called for men to enter the nation's service there were no specifications as to the capital, that is, the financial circumstances, of those who should respond. The draft fell upon rich and poor alike. In Pasadena's con- tingent $1o0,000,ooo in the way of money was represented; side by side with these sons of wealth were those whose wealth was summed in the clothes they wore. The value of these men to the army was their physical endurance, amenability to discipline, courage, and initiative un- der unforeseen conditions. Their poten- tial value to the nation is not to be reckoned in terms of money, which is of use only to express contrasts. A nation's assets are its citizens, especially those who have talent and opportunity to develop themselves in its behalf. Here are God only knows how many "mute, inglorious Miltons," embryo scientists, statesmen, physicians, financiers, ready or preparing to give the world their best, who have instead been sacrificed to Mars! When we remember that between 6,- ooo And 7,ooo Michigan university men are in the United States service in one capacity or another; that Harvard's con- tribution is 5,6ooo; and that Yale's 4,800, are divided in the three great army di- visions, we see what an enormous: amount of invested capital these three universities alone, irrespective of the 500 yodd colleges and universities in the country at large, have put at the nation's service. It is estitnated that it costs about $5,000 to put a boy through the grades and take him to commencement day in college.
