NEW COMMANDANT

When America went Into tho war there
was an Immedlato rush of college men to
tako their places on tho firing line. By
fall 150 Institutions reported that 18,520
students wero in the army or navy, and
1,850 had gono into
activities. Tho undergraduates for tho most
,part went Into active service, the alumni,
or those of them who for ono reason or
another wero unfitted for army or navy,
went into tho service of tho relief organizations.
Hundreds of college mon and women
went into the Red Cross. This organization was mado up largely of college men
and women. They went into it because it
was constructive, because it gave them a
chanco to apply practically those ideals
which are the Ideals of America, and
which tho training they have received in
colleges and universities has taught them
to honor and cherish. .
When the war ended, many ' persons
thought he Red Cross would end too.
But disease and suffering did not end with
tho war. Health, good citizenship are as
Important today as they were two years
ago. So the Red Cross work goes on. It
