Kemp Is Asked to Sign Papers for Their Return. Young men who left college to join the army or navy are being given the opportunity being the first to be discharged, providing they wish to back to their college and finish gO their education. Such a course on the part of the government shows the value it puts upon higher education, realizing that in reconstruction well as the war there will be a great demand for skilled thinkers. Dr. Kemp has already received request, from one of Wesleyan's former students, for a signed statement to the effect that the young man left school for the service.

This statement will be necessary if he is to get permission to return to his studies. Other such requests are expected. It is taken for granted that this applies only to the soldiers who are in this country. Drop Some Studies. The end of the war brings to an end some of the intense training that the boys have been getting at camps and universities.

Evidence of this is found in a letter to Dr. Kemp from the government stating that the I courses in map-making, surveying, navigation and military law and practice, may be discontinued. The of these studies was never belast at the Wesleyan, because the gun necessary books were not to be had. The call for them all over the United States was so great. the press could not fill them.

Map- making and naviwill be dropt at the end of gation this semester. Surveying will continue. Less Hours Required. In connection with this statement comes another modification of the stringent program first inaugurated. Students may carry thirty-six hours of recitation a instead of the forty -two first demanded.

In many cases the dropping of the two studies mentioned above will be dropping the six hours of work. Some boys who have not been students for some time prior to coming to the Wesleyan and are having a hard time to keep all their studies going together with the military drill, 'are being allowed some of their work, sO that to drop they can be more successful on the rest of it. Asked to Get Coal. The state fuel administration has asked the Wesleyan and all other public institutions to fill up ahead on its coal supply. At least thirty days of coal should be on hand, says the the administration.

Wesleyan plant is capable of During mild weather keeping coal in storage ahead for forty days, but in cold thirty or weather Dr. Kemp says this would be difficult. Prof. Austin's Nephew Dies in France: Prof. F.

M. Austin, of Illinois Wesleyan university, brother, received Prof. C. word yesterday Austin, from of his the Ohio Wesleyan B. at Delaware, that the latter's university son, Major Raymond Austin, is dead in France.

Major Austin the was a war regu- and lar in the service before service in the Philippines and saw the Mexican border. He was on promoted from captain to major two after arriving in France.

THE PANTAGRAPH, BLOOMINGTON, RED CROSS APPEAL TO KEEP UP THE WORK Letter Received by Bloomington Chapter Pointing Out Future Needs. Coming of Peace No Signal: for Slacking of Effort Membership Drive Dec. 16. Campbell Holton, chairman of the Bloomington chapter of the can Red Cross, has received the foltowing telegram sent out from Wash. ington by the War council of the Red Cross: "On February 10 last year, nearly six weeks before the United States declared war, national Red Cross headquarters advised its chapters to prepare for war.

That which has fol- lowed in the record of the Red Cross in helping to win this war and to relieve the suffering growing of it, constitutes something of out which every American citizen has a right be proud. Every American Red Cros Worker must feel sense of gratitude in having had share in it all. "The moment is now come to pare for peace. Actual peace may come at any moment; it may be deferred for some time. Until peace is really here, there can be no reiaxation in ant Red Cross enort incident work of the Ited Cross is finished.

let no one suprose that the peace, to active hostilities. But even wita Millions of American boys are still under arms. Thousands of them are sick or wounded. Owing to the shortage of shipping, it may take a year or more to bring our boys home troin France. But whatever the time, our protecting arms must be about them and their families over the whole period which must elapse fore the normal lite of peace can be resumed.

Our soldiers and sailors are listed. until the commander in chief teals there is 10 more work for them to do in the war. Let every Red Cross member and worker show our returning soldiers and sailors that to sare for their health, welfare and happiness we are enlisted for no less a period than they are. New Work Opens. "The cessation of the war will reveal a picture of misery such as the world nas never betore seen, especialin the many countries whien ay not hep themseives.

The American people expect the Red Cross to tinue to act as their agent in repairing broken spirits and brokea bodies. Peace terms and peace ditions will determine how we may best minister to the vast stricken areas which have been harrowed by war, and in this great act of mercy the heart and spirit of the American people must continue to be mobilized thru the American Red Cross. behalf of the War Council, we accordingly ask each member of our splendid body of workers thrucut the land to bear in mind the solemn obligation which rests upon each one to "carry on." We cannot abate one instant in our efforts, or in our spirit. There will be an abundance of work to do, and specific vices will be given, but even at the moment of peace let no Red Cross worker falter. "Our spirits must call us now to show that it is not the roar of the cannon, or the blood of our own alone that directs our activities, but that a great people will continue to respond greatly and freely to its obligation and opportunity to serve mankind." Chairman Holton of the Blooming tor chapter has also been informel that a great membership drive will be undertaken during the week of December 16 to 23, which will be known as the "Red Cross Christmas Roll Call."
