By Students, Profs Say Uncertainties of War Time Vanish and Training for Service Begins As a whole, the University students are doing better work this year than they did last, according to instructors in various departments. Some of the instructors think the war has caused most of the students to become more serious minded—that it is the fashion to be serious. Things are so much more settled this year than they were last that students are more definite in determining what work they will carry, and work harder to get what they can out of their courses. It was almost impossible last year to know what one would have to do from one week to the next, a condition especially true among the men students, and they did not take as much effort as we did. This year professors say everyone seems to understand that from now on positions will be so few that it will be the best man who will get the best job and it is up to them to prepare themselves to be one of the "fittest." Frats and Sororities Give More to Armenian Additional contributions are being made to the Douglas County Jewish-Armenian relief fund by the members of university fraternities and sororites.

Fraternity contributions not yet acknowledged are: Gamma Pi Beta, $15.40; Alpha Omicron Pi, $10.00; Delta Tau (additional) $3.00; Sigma Chi, $5.00. Students May Obtain Army Books at Y.M.C.A.
