During the Mexican, Civil, and Spanish- American Wars they took an important part in the active service of the army, until prompt response to the Countryis need has 'come to be among the most sacred and highly cherished traditions of the college. As the Recensfio goes to press this year, approximately three hundred alumni and former students of Miami are reported as engaged in the VVorld. VVar. In constant honor of these men two flags, Old Glory, and a service flag presented to the university by the Cincinnati Alumni, hang side by side before the stage in the auditorium. That these men are already distinguishing themselves in the service,r is shown by the fact that one is a colonel, one a lieutenant colonel, two are majors, twelve captains, twenty-four first lieutenants, thirty-ive second lieutenants, one is an ensign, twenty are sergeants, and seven corporals, - one hundred and three officers in all. Obviously it would have been an impossibility to secure the photo- graphs of all Miami men who are now in khaki, so an eHort has been made to include in the following pages, with the exception of Ex-president Benton, only those who were connected with the university last year. Even here a great many obstacles, such as distance, inadequate addresses, and losses in the mails, have offered serious interference, so that while a large number of the men have responded to the requests for their photographs, the collection makes no pretension to completeness. 16
