GUARDSMEN WILL CAMP IN ROCKIES Russel Clark, Steward; and George Edwards, Doctor in "Billy." Fifteen Days' Encampment on Pole Mountain, Wyoming in August. 10,000 TROOPS IN MANOUVERS Kansans Will Engage in Sham Battles With Infantry, Artillery, Cavalry and Machine Guns. Pole mountain of the Rocky Mountain range forty miles west of Cheyenne, Wyoming, has been selected for the annual summer camp of the University company of the Kansas National Guards. The members of the company will go into camp in August and fifteen days will be spent in the mountains. Many of the men are interested in the trip this year, "said Captain Horace Steele, his team to expect to take more than last summer, when we learn weeks in encampment at Fort Riley. "The drills will be more interesting than last summer; they will consist mainly of sham battles with infantry, artillery, cavalry, machine guns, and every branch of the service. Ten thousand troops will take part in the maneuvers in Wyoming and the University company will attend in full force, if it is possible to complete the enrollment. "Pole mountain has an elevation of 8,200 feet above the sea level; the days are cool and comfortable and in the evening, the weather is rather chilly. However, each shelter tent will be provided with a conical stove. I think the State may furnish the troops with olive drab uniforms which are warmer than the khaki that the men have at present." All students who are interested in enlistment should see Captain Steele or Lieutenant Fairechle. The company will camp for a week in June on the shooting range south of Lawrence immediately after the spring semester closes. This is a shoot camp and is entirely devoted to range work. FINE ARTS WILL DO CLAY MODELING Complete Clay Working Laboratory Permits Pottery Class to Work. Young women in the pottery class of the School of Fine Arts will do actual work in clay modeling this semester. This is made possible by the completion of the new clay working laboratory of the Geology department. The clay for use by the Fine Arts students, must be washed and filtered. Last year, this work was done in Fowler Shops, but it was ound impracticable to continue the work last fall. The young women could not be expected to wash and prepare their own clay, so it has devolved upon the new clay testing department to supply them with the proper grade of clay. The clay washing machine will soon be installed in the laboratory, and the girls will have an abundant supply of clay in the future. The increased facilities for clay washing will enable the pottery class to have their own work on display at the next art exhibit. REDS AND BLUES PREPARE FOR BASKET-BALL MEET Are you a Red or a Blue?

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation—or any nation so conceived and so dedicated—can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We are met to dedicate a portion of that field as the final resting place of those who here gave their lives that nation is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our power to add or detract. The world will little note not long remember, what we say here; but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here, to the unfinished work that they have thus far so nobly carried on. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the people' e, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
