...recent action of Radcliffe College gives this selfish masculine theory a further push toward refutation. The young women of that institution have organized a farm unit which will spend this summer raising food, not as dilettantes of backyard gardens, but as farmers of the real school. With food ranking equal to bullets as far as war necessities are concerned, the Radcliffe plan is true patriotism. We do not need Battalions of Death or Squadrons of Amazons, but the more Maud Mullers we have during this war summer, the greater our strength against Kaiserdom...
...that students were putting all their time on Military Science and closely allied subjects, to the great detriment of other courses and the students' general standing. This explanation is of doubtful value. We believe that there are very few men in the University, who, from necessity or desire, spend so much time on their military work that their other courses have to suffer.

C.'s as the men would be sent to the cantonments only from June 1 to July 1. The University's plans, at any rate, would...
...made the fame of Barre, and we hope that the number and quality of students will be as high as it was in 1917. In addition, opening enlistments to preparatory and high school graduates who pass their June entrance examinations will not only give those men an opportunity to spend a useful six weeks of military preparation, but will also bring them in close and intimate contact with the University which they are to enter in the fall...
...have a definite amount of labor, already diminished by the draft, which can be applied to the extraction and fashioning of such goods. We have an ever-increasing demand for war commodities, which means a necessarily additional application of labor to war industry. Yet we are told to spend our money freely for articles produced by concerns "of every kind." Non-essential industries (in the war sense), finding the same demand for their products, will continue to use supplies and labor which might otherwise be diverted to those industries essential to the prosecution of the war. If the candy-makers...
