...favor of an All-College Camp such as we propose would be the possibilities of its relations with the Government. Hitherto, the War Department, although acknowledging the good for the cause done by individual units of the R. O. T. C., has never been able to support the best of the corps as they deserved because of the impossibility of distinguishing between institutions. If we pooled our interests which are the same to start with, namely, to increase the efficiency of future officers and men and at the same time pooled our equipment, experience, and instructors, the result would...

...thing is unusual, and faintly hopeful, about the latest Advocate: the editorials are the best part of it. They are brief, timely, pointed, sane, and well expressed.

...gratitude and our love, is our duty-a duty which we should grasp as a privilege. Our men will be none the less warriors because we remember them with letters and gifts. They are carrying our burdens, upholding our honor-and I for one desire to express as best I can the deep personal obligation I owe the youth who has taken my place in the ranks. I want him to know my feeling. I want him to know that so far as my means and strength will allow, I intend to back him up in his cheerful and splendid...
