...doubled so that he would receive at least thirty dollars a month. Although section twenty-seven of the present Army Bill provides for the training of enlisted men in a score of occupations during the spare hours not devoted to military instruction, thus far no appropriation has been passed to carry out this provision. Since the introduction of this valuable instruction in different trades would make the profession of a soldier considerably more attractive, Congress should immediately pass a bill appropriating the funds for this purpose...
...Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Charles Eliot Norton were among the other who at the time of their death willed their own volumes to the College Library. The addition of Professor Muensterberg's books will help to increase the size of that collection which increases in historical importance as years pass.

In the Faculty did this it would be considered unwarranted oppression, and would fail of its intended moral effect. If we do it ourselves it will add, directly and indirectly, more men to the training unit than any other possible action, and its example will be felt throughout the country. It is easy enough to call others to make sacrifiees for their duty--it is simpler, but rarer, to make the sacrifices oneself...
