WEEK

Tents To Be Erected on the
Campus For
Cadets.

WILL LAST TEN DAYS
Arrangements have been completed
by Captain H. N. Royden, command
ant, and authorized by President Mc- Vey, whereby the battalion of the Uni
versity with its cadet officers will ac
tively engage In guard duty next week,
so that they will be able to do regula
tion duty upon the arrival of the four
hundred drafted men who come May
7, for special technical training.
Captain Royden has arranged for
the establishing of guard tents on the
campus for the period from Wednesday night, May 1 to' Saturday night,
May 11, making ten days' guard duty.
The time will be divided so as to pro
vide for two guards from each of the
five companies of the battalion, and
the members of the battalion will be
excused from class room duties on the.
day following the night on which they.
mount guard.
This means that beginning May 1,
one company of the five will be appointed to do guard duty for twenty-fou- r
continuous hours on the campus
and at the Fair Grounds, the site
selected for the quartering of the four
hundred men. This company will be
relieved after its duty by another com
pany which in turn wil ldo guard duty
for one day. After each company has
done duty for its respective days, the
schedule will be resumed as started.
The guard mounting beginning each
day at 3:30 p. m. as designated by
Captain Royden follows: May 1, Company A; May 2, Company B; May 3,
Company C; May 4, Company D; May
5, Company E; May 6, Company A;
May 7, Company B; May 8, Company
C; May 9, Company D; May 10, Company E.

Captain Royden will also arrange
for daily drill or ceremony on each
day for the period the company doing
duty serves, Sunday excepted. The
ceremony on Saturday, May 4, and
May 11, will be held at 1:30 p. m.,
and on other days at 3:30 p. m.
This is the program that Major Gar- ber approved in giving the University
its rating as one of the universities of
the country which complies with all
military regulations and which insures
it a specified number of candidates for

HEADS GARDEN WORK
With a view to stimulating food
production, more attention is to be
given to the home garden movement
by teachers of Lexington schools and
by the children under supervision of
McNeal James, Professor of Vocational Training, University of Kentucky.
A supervising teacher has been selected for each of the thirteen schools.
Last year, four students of the College
of Agriculture took charge of all
school gardening and more than fifty
acres of ground in the city were cultivated by children.
Each supervising teacher will organize pupils of schools into garden
clubs which shall hold regular meetings for Instruction.
The main purpose of the meetings is to sustain the
interest of children in the cultivation
of gardens. Tho supervising teacher

KULTUR OF GERMANY

The rogular meeting of the Horace
Mann Literary Society was held Thursday evening in the Education building.
Hubert de Wageanere spoke on "Kul-u- r
and the Collapse of the Superman."
Mr. de Wagenaere gave the several
definitions of "Kultur" taken by the
various German writers In their works
and showed how the German education had been cheating the people of
that country for the last fifty years.
The speaker went on to prove that the
German instead of being the superman is really inferior to the other
peoples of the earth.
This can be seen in the fact that
England and France with a few
months preparation were able to hold
Germany, while It took Germany years
to prepare. While she is winning now
'she has not done all she set out to do,
and the superman should have the
spirit and the power to accomplish all
that he sets out to do.
Mr. de Wagenaere is with Victor

war ln its true proportions and blames
