Richards hospital in that city, the largest institution of the kind in the east. More than lif t/ speoiahsts take part in 'the examination, each having eartain work. T h e .,p h y s io s ! examination required about three hours. Some or the te&ta experi­ enced oertainl/ would tell on the vitality Of the applicant. To fill these requirements a man has to.be almost psrfeot physically. ‘ Hixty-twe applicants were ex­ amined a t the same time,'almost all were teachers o f college men. Mr. Oreswell was one of five successful - applicants. His grade was 99.2 while the highest map.received 99,2, Mr. Greswell tells an interesting incident toward Cedarville College which is quite a credit to the insti­ tution. . When he wan asked for his collegegfcdeaand papers he'gave the name of the institution from Which he graduated. The members of the board had never heard of our institution and the officers began to question the adnqittauce o f papers fropi an unknown institution. To dea r up the matter 'college records were investigated by the government officials and It was learned that graduates from Cedar ▼Ule were admitted to the O. 8. U. without examination. The officer expressed much surprise and stated that the institution must be all right lf reoognlsod by the O. 8 . V. Still further comment was expressed when Mr, Oreewell was second in five of the spooessfdl-applicants. The branch of the service Mr. Oreswell expeots to enter is tha t of ' the officers training force.,, His work will have to do with making flights for observation, map .draw­ ing and aero photography.

The above ie the caption ,of an artiQlefonhd in a recent number of the Christian Herald, a paper which does more than any other in exist* ence for the sufferers from flood or famine or war. ' The frightfulness of rt as the Kaiser calls it, is not only what the .soldiers ,experience in the trenches knd on the battle- field, but in the awful distress that women and children are enduring because of destroying homes and lack of food and medical attention and all the comforts of life, Be* couse of this many are dying, and mere will die if relief does not come. A report had been circulated thaj the committee was unable to trans­ mit supplies and funds. The Herald says that the American Committee is sending without hindrance every dollar that it can procure;- and that it-is administered thru responsible consuls, ex-consuls, and mission­ aries. . I t states that there are three absolutely safe channels open to the committee. The following cable was received iri May: “Relief funds exhausted. Need unprecedented. General con­ dition of refugees has reaohed enti cal stag*. Larger number of 'weak men with families to support. Ap­ palling number of widows with children to support.” Dr, Robert JS.flpser,.
