'" Then as for the Boarding Department or Mess Hall:

Our big and modern Boarding Department must also be divided so
we may serve separately both civilian students and Army trainees,
We have converted the Main Dining Hall (the main floor of the build-
ing known as the Dining Hall) into an Army Mess Hall. The civilian
students, those who choose to board with us, are being served and
accommodated in the College Cafeteria, this just under the Army Mess
Hall. The hours of serving are being staggered so as not to make
too difficult a task for our enlarged kitchen and bakery personnel.
And we will continue to accept part-note settlements for cafeteria
tickets as we have previously been doing for board settlements in
the Dining Hall and for tuition settlements.

But get this -- MINERVA HALL, DRYDEN HALL AND VINCENT HALL CON-.
TINUE AS GIRLS' DORMITORIES and, of course, are located across the

street and some distance from the Army center.

Then there are many homes and a number of large and independ-
ently operated rooming houses out in town where reasonable and de-
sirable rooming accommodations for both girl and boy students are
still available and have been available all along.

You see, we are sharing with the Army the splendid set-up we
have here for a business school. We are doing our part. We are
contributing as best we can to wiyning the war.

 

But what are YOU doing?

Here is what Harry Hopkins says in an article in a recent issue
of American Magazine:

"WE ARE mobilizing our fighting men through Selective Service.
Now we must mobilize our civilians. A Selective Service for War Work
at Home must distribute our man-and-woman power fairly, firmly and
etficlently«.,..+.. None can be spectators." -

Are you doing your part? Are you fitting into this immense
War Program somewhere and somehow? Are you being more than just
"a spectator"?

It is possible through a business course for you to enter ac-
tive and actual military service by enlisting in the WAACS or the
WAVES. A number of our former students are already in such service.
But anyway, you CAN and you SHOULD become a civilian soldier, you
should do your part to win this war.

We wanted also to tell you of recent placements but this letter
is already much too long. Will have to leave the placements for our
next letter. Permit us to say, though, that several of our students
have worked into good $1440.00-a-year office positions right here in
our Army School. (These, of course, were taken from Civil Service
rolls.) And the past month, six were placed in the offices of the
Sunflower Ordnance Plant operated by the Hercules Powder Co. at Law-
rence, Kans.; two more with the DuPont Plant at Tulsa; another at
the St. Louis Ordnance Works; another with the Rock Island Arsenal
