War Increases Need Of Trained Women— Write it to Sister
Unusual Opportunities Open to Girls of College Education, Says Miss Margaret Lynn
"The call for women's service in different departments of work connected with the war is constantly increased," said Miss Margaret Lynn, director of war work for women. "The war is owing, not only to the fact that women must take the places from which men are called but to the multiplication of the kinds of work taken over by the government or by organizations serving the government war is present and necessary for women to only make themselves useful to the country, but often at the same time to advance themselves industrially or professionally. Under the Women's Division of the Labor Department, Section has agreed, to have oversight of the employment of college trained women."
It is a question in the mind of many girls whether it is their duty at the present time to continue in college or to go at once into some kind of government work for which special training is not necessary. The answer to this is in the urgent call for women of scientific or professional training. Almost any woman can go into a munitions factory, but the supply of competent college women is not now equal to the demand.
The following list indicates some of the occupations called for at present in war service, and for which the University prepares. These are are students and include none of those organized under the various voluntary associations:
Dietitians
Electrical Domestic science experts
Domestic science experts
Draftsmen of different kinds
Industrial secretaries and super-
Librarians
Scientists
Bacteriologists
Bio-chemists
Associate chemists
Chemists' aids
Entomologists
Preparators in nematology
Fermentation mycologists
Forest pathologists
Herbivium assistants
Plant pathologists
Assistant physicists
Geologic aids
Laboratory assistants of almos
Laboratory assistants of almost every kind
Social workers
The call for these comes from the civil service, the Bureau of Labor, the surgeon general and other organizations affiliated with the government. Manage them well. These are the **criminal ones** for which the university prepares.
Miss Ruth L. Beverstock, c18, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Beverstock of 1400 Ohio Street, and Sergey Aveyes, both of Doyle, and Mr. and Mrs. Dodrey, were married at Fort Leavenworth August 4. Mrs. Reeves has accepted a position as English instructor in the Carley High School this fall. She is now a medical corps at Fort Leavenworth where he has been since he enlisted in 1917.
It is a sort of financial cowardice to hesitate to put your money in United States Government securities, and to deliberate over the wisdom and patriotism of the investment is to hesitate in supporting our soldiers.

Spooner Library Ready For S. A. T. C. Men Now
Spooner Library is open now for use by all students as during the regular school sessions. Arrangements for the use of books in barracks by men of the S. A. T. C. have not been made. The library will be open for the use of student soldiers, as for all other students.
Some books probably will be kept in the barracks for use in the study hours, 7:30 to 9:30 o'clock at night. The American Library Society offers many different army cantonments and probably will send some for use here, if they are needed. This organization has sent 200 books of fiction and is sending new forty-nine books for the use of the men in training training section on the Hill.
The War Here and Over There
Unquestionable evidence that the Russian dictators, Lenne and Trotsky, were financed by the German government has been brought to light.
The success of the first All-American drive—or nearly so on the St. Mihiel sector gave the country its greatest thrill since the war began.
A potential German naval base in the Virgin islands has been seized by he allow property custodian and will be used to house American military and customs department.
As a prelude to the coming peace drive by Germany, speaking at the Krupp munition work at Essen, Emperor William declared that every one in the remotest corner of the world had been forced to stone unburned to shorten the war as far as possible for our people and for the entire civilized European world."
It may at least be said in behalf of Mr. Kitchin that a tax bill never has any friends. The recently adopted tax law will raise eight billion dollars.
Field Marshal Haig is not given to boasting, and when he says that the enemy's effort is spent his words will carry weight.
A monument in Paris in honor of the women of the United States is to be erected by French women.
Vast is the task, John Pershing, that thou hast.
And all they goodly, well dealt blows
For country and humanity's just
passion.
But well this great republic knows,
Confirmed by warrant from thy gal-
That thou wilt nobilly do thy part:
Bring ye pure peace from Hun hell:
Catholicism
Columbia gives to thee her heart.
