T the moment of writing this editorial the papers are full of the plea of the new Ger- man chancellor for an armistice dur- ing which peace terms are to be dis- cussed. All the leading men of the country seem to be united in de- nouncing this plea as merely another German trick, this time with the purpose of negotiating peace while Germany still holds Belgium and other conquered and outraged terri- tory as a pawn. There can be no peace until the German armies are all driven back onto their own soil. On this point the allies seem to be agreed, and it is to be hoped that they will stay agreed. A peace drive by Germany is bound to have one effect, whether or not it is successful otherwise. This effect is to make some short-sighted in- dividuals slacken up in their efforts to win the war, believing it has al- ready reached. the beginning of the end. It is to be hoped that none such are enrolled in Lake Forest Col- lege, and that we are all going to pull together and work' our hardest for a threefold object. First, to train to help bring the war to a speedy conclusion which will leave no doubt as to the absolute defeat of Prussian Militarismg second, to make the S. A. T. C. at Lake Forest the best to be found, and third, by application to the work in hand to make the most of the opportunities which are here in such abundance to 'make ourselves better and more useful men. .l0L.

The Carrick Club Hootchl If a pun were not the lowest form of wit, and this column were not a purveyor of distinctly high grade hu- mor, we should be tempted to start out the good work by remarking that Mc Evoy has a Bea in his bon- net, or something like that, but,-- oh what's the use? There have been numerous cares and worries attendant to the change of dear old Lake Forest College to a military, but the thing that has made us lose the most weight has been try- ing to figure out what keeps Corporal QI beg your pardon, Sergeantb Bos- worth from falling through the rath- er ample neck band of his blouse. A story is current to the effect that shortly after Admiral Locke blos- somed out in his full regimental re- galia, that the following ensued: Locke walked past Lieutenant Thompson and failed to salute him. The lieutenant reprimanded him at which Locke replied, Yes, I knew I should salute you, but I've been doing it for a week now, and I thought I knew you well enough so I didn't have to any more! The lieutenant was a bit taken aback by that, but being a patient man, started to ex- plain, but with the necessary military gruffness. Pointing to the insignia on his shoulder he said, Don't you see that? Yes, said Locke, but what are you crabbing about? Look at the uniform they gave me! On Sunday there were many ru- mors flying about to the effect that the war was over, and we went to bed with a feeling of elation and re- lief. This feeling was however ab- sent at six o'clock Monday morning when we were awakened from dreams of peace by the clarion tones of the bugler sounding first call. Some- body's always taking the joy out of life! O. C. T. -ig-iw The Garglers' Union of Lois Dur- and Hall respectfully submits the fol- lowing touching ballad: D-doebels', measley d'doebels' That's the only, only stuff that I adore When, the m-moon shines o'er the - pest house I'll be g-gargling doebels' like a t'troubadour. 1,1 Gladys Armstrong, ex '22, visited on the campus for a few minutes last week end. Beatrice Worthley spent last week- end in Ottawa. Under the able leadership of its new director, Mr. W. Chilton Trout- man, the Garrick Club promises us an unusually successful season. Mr. Troutman graduated from the East- ern Illinois Normal School in 1912. He taught in a high school from 1912 to 1915. From 1915 to 1917 he did graduate work at the Univer- sity of Illinois, taking his Masters de- gree last year. A more complete ac- count of the Garrick Club's plans for the next year will appear next week. L-gl HE GIRLS of Lois Durand Hall have been roused from their slumbering and passive- ness. They are wakened every morn- ing by the bugle which blows out in the cold grey dawn, but their great incentive to action is their new dean, Miss Hamilton. All of us have within us that great desire to be of service but the life at the Hall has been the same for so many years that it has been hard for us to accept any ideas which were radically different from our accus- tomed habits. Consequently o ur deans have had a hard problem in trying to help us out of the rut into which our school life had fallen. This year, due partly to the ur- gent need of the times and to the realization that We have been idling away our time, we have decided to be of some use. We have come to know Miss Hamil- ton well. VVe recognize in her a woman of the ideals for which we all are striving and one who is capable of leading us to our goal. She sees that our faults are numerous and with her aid in pointing them out and prescribing the remedy, we in- tend to make them fewer. She real- izes that even though we are women of college age, we still give fun a big place in our curriculum. She does not discourage this part of our life but rather encourages us to see the still greater possibilities for en- joyment iu some service. Now is the time for action and under the leadership of Miss Hamil- ton We intend to make this year at Lois Durand Hall, a year never to be forgotten, a year in which greater things are to be accomplished than ever have been before. .-lgl. Anna Glenn was the guest of Mar- garet Mills and Marian Preston in Chicago last week-end.

The gorgeous, exquisitely tinted, au- tumn leaves were falling down from the noble oaks what stood guarding the grand old college at Lake Forest. Down a winding path came our heroine. She seemed to be riding the gentle zephyrs so lightly did she bound o'er the earth. Suddenly she she stopped and peered ahead. Then danced onward-more gayly than be- fore. Coming down the walk toward her was a man-a tall dark handsome man with a Charlie Chaplin mustache and a brilliant green sweater. Grace- fully he swaggered onward never no- ticing our dainty heroine. He sees me not, quoth our hero- in, but never mind-yet a few min- utes.and he shall know me well. Then softly she sighed a dainty sigh and stepped up beside him. She touched his hand--she snuggled against his shoulder. Very, very, gently, then she touched his cheek. He stopped and looked about him. Abashed he bowed his curly head.

Hope you haven't been worrying about my disappearance. This is the first chance I've had of writing you. Am quite all right and enjoying life as well as a prisoner could, though its very hard to resign oneself to idleness after having such a splen- did time in the air. It was a real exciting time, but I guess there were too many German airmen for my short experience. There were holes in almost everything but myselff I landed 'qugite a few miles on the wrong side of the linesl I was taken immediately by the infantry and then by some airmen who made me spend the night at their aerodrome and were real good sports and quite con- cealed their satisfaction over having shot me down. Several of our aviators have had their machines shot down without being killed so I have all kinds of company and we're living under quite pleasant conditions. Don't worry about me, for I'm very Well and will see you all after the war. A letter from Major V. A. H.
