STUDENT BODY OFFICERS ELECTED Dan Baker Chosen For Presidcn

The Student Body machinery for the Summer School session was put in good working order Wednesday when a complete ros ter of officers were selected. There were not flights of ora tory in the nominating speeches The speeches were convincingh, however, because after eac nomination the individual was elected to the position by accla mation. Dan Baker was nominated for president by Mr. Meeks, who proclaimed him a man acquainted with A. C. spirit, full of col lege pep, a possessor of the qual iti es of leadership. Mr Harding presented the name of Miss Edith Bowen for vice pres ident. Mr. Meeks then nominated Miss Stella Young for secre tary and treasurer . There was no other nominations so the above officers were proclaimed elected Dr. Linford has appointed Mr Ben Parkinson and Lucile Rog ers, who, with the three above named constitute the executive committee and will have charge of all Student Body affairs. The real spirit and the amount of enjoyment that we get out of school activities rests largely in theoflicers hands. This executive committee, we believe, is going to have the spir it and the pep to put thing s over They are every one students of experlience 'and know what it takes to make a live school. We can be assured of some unique and pleasant times. But fellow students all the en thusiasm of the officers will no give you a good time. You mus he there with the support. If you want a good time you can have it. Student Life pleads with you to come out of your shells, mix up, make these few weeks as happy for yourself as possibled. Get the spirit of the A.

Address By Doctor Otis The Hun has not killed idealism if we are to take the poetry called forth by this war as a criterion according to Dr. Wm. E. Otis, Professor of English in the College of the city of New York, who lectured to-day on "The Poetry of the War" before a large audience of summer schoo l students of the Utah Agricultural College. Dr. Otis, who is at Logan delivering a series of patriotic lectures under the auspieces of the National Security League, is a direct descendant of James Otis, orator of revolutionary days and is a public lecturer known nation-wide. In discussing the salient characteristics of the poetry of the war, Dr. Otis called attention to two important facts, first,that in spite of the atrocities of the Hun, the poets of England, France, Italy and America, have awakened to a new and higher ideali sm and second, that, of all the poems of the war not one has held out a friendly hand to Germany, but all have condemned her as the author of our present ill. "This letter characteristic", said Dr. Otis, goes to show how atrocious have been the crimes of Germany. Before love can be extended to her, justice must be satisfied." "The war has not produced any really great poems," said Dr. Otis. "This is not to be expected. Neither great poems nor novels will be produced dur(Continued

EDITORIAL THE

SOLDIERS

The soldiers are here. We welcome them to the Utah Agricu ltural College . We realize, however, that they are here under strict military discipline. We are aware that they are here for intensive training and not for social purposes. But the thought comes to every one of us, just what is the relationship between them, the student body, and the people of Logan. For specific regulaiions all should read the article in this paper from Capta in Frazee. But what attitude are we going to adopt? There is a feeling that these soldiers should be forbid all social intercourse with our people that they are a danger to the community, and that decent people should hold themselves aloft from association with them. Students, you have brothers, people of Logan, you haw sons in the United States Army . They have been sent into strange communities. You mothers 1 do you want those people to look upon your son as bein~ dangerous to the community . Osirasize them from soc iety and treat them on ly as debauchers . No! Then treat other mothers sons as you would ha\·e other mothers treat your sons . Fellow students you have brothers in the army. These boys are somebody's brothers. VVhat are you going to do'? These men are from the finest homes in Wyoming. They are as good as the sons of Utah. The 145th F irst Artillery from Utah made a hike the other day from Camp Kearny to San Diego. En route they camped in \ a s mall town. The citizens of that little communitl welcomed the boys of Utah to their town and entertained them that evening. And when the boys left the mayor read them this message: "\\'e havP adopted you as our sons ." Honor to that community! lt is the true American spirit. And that . is the way the sons of l 1 tah are being treated. \Ve can do no less for the Eons of \-\yo 11ing. ·

Clothes One Hundred And N inety Fin F irst Week Registration is continuing stro ng , one hundred and ninety five having now registered which is one short of last year's total and thirty over what it was last summer for the first week. Apparently, the second week will add another fifty. This number is beyond all calculations of the school officials.._ The summer work is now in full sw ing. Everybody has settled down for six weeks of good grinding.

Those who did not hear the message of Mr. Burns from the Chautauqua platform last Friday night missed a story from one of the most inspirational men of America today. It was the simple storyo f a great life dedicated to a noble cause. He has solved great socia l problems and given to society an asset that cannot be valued in gold. He saw in the Cumberland mountains the decadence of a splendid race of people. Their decay was due to lack of social intercourse illiteracy and the terrible fami ly feuds. With the courage, persistence and sacrifice that only inspired men have he set himself the task of redeeming these people. This has been accomp lished through the medium of a college, the Oneida Institute . This college was born under most extraord inary circumstances. Without a dollar; with a board of trustees of whom 90 per cent could n.o~ wr ite their own names, a president who had had seventeen months schoo1ing, commencing its existence in the heart of the Cumberland mountains, whose inhabitant s kne\.v nothing but poverty, ignorance and the thi r st for the blood of a fued enemy. These were the cond itions confronting him. With his own hands Mr. Burns laid the foundation of the first building . Today the property of the school is worth $150,000. The present student body numbers 500. Among its graduates are some of the foremost citizens of the south. Prosperity and intellige!1c_e are replacmg poverty and 1lhteracy among the people and the work continues. A; magnificant work.
