IS
The drive started on last Tuesday
for $1750 of the national $1,000,000 Y.
M. C. A. War Fund by students all over
America has more than surpassed the
expectations of the spectators of this
local campaign. The fatal weight descended
upon the wedge slowly but firmly
from the time of Miss MeAbee's first
appeal in assembly a week ago Tuesday,
and gaining a tremendous momentum on
this week, Tuesday, with the added
weight of the stirring information imparted
by Messrs Harlan and Moran,
the indicator tolling the returns as they
passed the $1750 mark with ease and
rested at $2,045.00. Wednesday the indicator
moved on to $2,165.00.
With two hundred more pledges not
yet heard from it is expected to see a
final total of over $2,500.00.
One often doubts whether he is priv-iliged
to use the word sacrifice with
honesty, but the committee in charge
which has had the opportunity to see
the pledges made, and has intimate
knowledge of many of those who have
given, feels that the term may be honestly
applied to many who gave.
Money for pledges already made is
coming in rapidly, and the first installment
of about $1,000 will be forwarded
to New York very soon.
Souls and Other Poems"
Now Ready for Distribution
By OLIVE
"Souls and Other Poems," for which
we have been impatient so long, is now
off the press, and is promised for distribution
on Monday. There are various
kinds of enchantment awaiting the
reader of this volume of forty odd poems
the enchantment of sound and the enchantment
of color arid the greater enchantment
of knowing one who walks
our paths and breathes our air brings
to us messages of high and penetrating
beauty.
Some books are full of promises and
EDENS
some of fulfillments, but "Souls," it
seems to me, is rich in both. There is
about the title poem a flash of Arnold,
when his Muse took him very near the
stars, and he gazed with his high sense
of idealism and serenity back at life.
"Like Death," "The Prayer of the Aesthete,"
"Snow Falling," "The Tent Light
in the- Desert" reflect a high spiritual
and intellectual quality, .which some wise
cntic in some wise review is going to say
promises much for the future.

On Tuesday in assembly, following the
preliminary talks which were given by
Mr. Bond, Mr. Owen and Mr. Carleton
on Monday, it was the privilege of the
student body and faculty to listen to
two very interesting speakers in their
attempt to have us realize the need of
the hour.
Mr. Harlan of Camp Lewis, coming
to us as a representative of Prof. Coleman,
spoke to us first.
"You've all heard of the' Y. M. C. A.

OUR UNKNOWN BENEFACTOR
The spirit in which Charles Allen of
Seattle contributed one hundred and fifty
dollars to the Students' Loan Fund is
highly comendable. Such men have at
heart the precept of service, an unquenchable
desire to be of some good to
their fellow .men. No selfish motive
could underlie such a worthy donation,
and the school with one voice proclaims
its appreciation. Whoever he may be,
Charles Allen has proven himself to be
a public-spirited, earnest citizen who is
worthy of emulation. The students all
look up to men like Charles Allen who
thus undergoes personal; sacrifice in making
such generous gifts for the welfare
of students struggling in financial
straits.
