•Tht^ lltpmfnre of the war will form a consldorflble element In every II hrnry where students work." writes flip vice rhanrcllor of Omhrldge nnl vprslty, according to a correspondent of the Chlcngo Daily News.
"At the university library a grent efTort hns been made during the Inst three years lo form stich a collection; nnd something already has been achieved hy the cflcbrnflon of help¬ ers In varlons piirt.s of the world, es¬ perlally the tfnifed States, .'<pnln and some countries In South Amerlcn, where (}ermnn propaganda llternture Tins been clrculnted In great abun¬ dance.
"It mny be thought that enough wnr collections will he made by the vari¬ ous governin'^nt nfllees, the British musetim nnd fhe Nntlonnl museum. These coliectlonfj will of cotirse be more extensive thnn anything which Cambridge cnn hope to get together. Mnt whrre there Is n schottl of '.history fhere should the materials for hlstorl- enl study be found, nnd n very moder- nte war collection will he much better than none. It mny even be thnt It will contain some things not easily to he met with elsewhere. Therefore, all Cambridge men In particular are nsked to use their opportunities and con¬ tribute whnt they cnn. Every scrap of printed paper eventually will full Into Its place nnd have Its chance of being useful to .some explorer."
TYPE OF AIRPLANE NEEDED
British Expert Points Out Serious De¬ fect In Those Which Are In Use at Present.
The most unpleasant situation in which nn airman cnn find himself Is to be nt a conaldernhle height and tho \Mew tn all directions cut oft by clouds. There Is no fixed point visible, and he can only tell If he la flying straight by his compass nnd air speed. If the wind be "bumpy" the compass card begins to move and only the mo.'<t delicate of steering will get It back to a steady position.
Capt. B. C. Hucks of the British roy¬ nl flying corp.s says he has found it al¬ most Impossible to get the compass steady In a cloud. The alrplnne has al¬ ready begun to turn and the pilot Is nlmcst certain to over correct. Then the nose drops and the speed goes up. The pilot cnnnot tell whether the machine Is taking a nose-dive, is spir¬ alling downwards or merely gliding a bit too rapidly.
If n stable machine be let alone un¬ der these circumstances It will right itself eventually and glide normally. But few pilots have nerve enough to Jet It alone and they are liable to try to poll out too suddenly, which means dlsn.sati^r.'
Captnln Hucks told the Aeronautical society In London thnt a machine which will .'Show a constant vertical or horizontal line nnd be Independent of centrifugal force, wns badly needed.
Many Will Claim Spltzbergen.
More thnn .SOO yenrs ago. In 1614, Jnnios I of Encland. formally claimed Spltzbergen. The Muscovy company, a British concern, was ordered'"to up¬ hold the king's right to Spltzbergen" by nn order in council. Thnt clnlm wns allowed to lapse in the snme man¬ ner In wliicli the Russian claim lapsed, the Britons Interested in the country sny.
With the end of fbe wnr old dnta will be dug up, with records of com- pnrntlvely recent times, to bolster the contentions of the various claimants, ns Spltzbergen Is sure to occupy n prominent plnce In north Europenn af¬ fairs. Uncle Sara is happily out of the matter becnuse of the sale by the Arc¬ tic Coal company, although judg¬ ing by precedent it never was likely that this country would go so far as to desire to exercise suzerainty over the land. Such n course wns urged in America In 1912 and lOl.T

He visited a Belgiiiii house tlmt .some Germnn offl¬ cers hud occupied and later evacuated when their army retired. "Over the door," he writes, "was the inscription, 'Offlcers' Mess.'

(Copyright. 1917, Wrifrn Newipapcr Union.)
They were old, humble, hut heart- vorne people of the ohi-fashloned kind, simple In tl\elr lives, and love and friendship were exempllflefl as natural, fnrnest emoticms, devoid of guile. The young folks had their social gather¬ ings, parties, barn dances and husking liees, custom nnd mlid superstitions, like Hnllnwe'en Action lending a charm to especial occasions. Quite In the course of events ench Darby found his .loan, and at last Uoflncy Trumbull was sure he had discovered his.
There was not a sweeter or prettier girl In Rocktcm than Ivy Lane, and Uodney bad known her for about a year. The parents of Iwth smllcHl In¬ dulgently upon the manifest mutual sentiments of the couple. Uodney re¬ garded Ivy as a being ethereal. He was so Imbued with a sense of her IK-lceless perfection that he grew abash¬ ed when he dared to hope he was to gain the love of this peerless creature, naturally of a shy nature, he had made little progress in his lovemuklng.
There was to be a party at the home of Ivy, nnd about n week before that Uodney saw her home from a church social. As they were about to part at the garden gate h«> mustered up the courage to disclose whnt hnd been ur¬ gently upon his mind for many hours. "Ivy," he said, "when I come to the party nt your house next Wednes¬ day, I want you to accept a little keep¬ sake from me. Will you?"
"But you gnve me a lovely bouquet of roses only yesterday nnd—"
"But this Isn't roses. I want to gK'e you a ring."
"Oh, Uodney—shocking I" laughed Ivy.
"It's coming from the city, where I have ordered it, and If you will only wear it on your engagement finger—"
"There is mother calling. Good night, Rodney," and Ivy flitted away, prob¬ ably happier than she had ever been In her life.
"She did not say she wouldn't ac¬ cept the ring," breathed Rodney cour¬ ageously, and counted the hours till the arrival of the evening party. Ivy received hlra with a gracious smile that set every nerve tingling, but as the hostess of the evening she could give him no further exclusive atten¬ tion. A MI.SS Lisle fell to his charge, partly through the efforts of the young lady In question to make it so, and In all courtesy Rodney found himself set¬ tled as partner and escort for the oc¬ casion to that flashing beauty from the city, temporarily visiting a married sis¬ ter in Rockton.
Miss Lisle was a siren In n mild way. While she despised what she termed the crude social wnys of Rock- ton, she set herself up ns a desperate flirt, nnd had half the girls by the ears because of her audacious appropria¬ tion of their beaux. Now It seemed that she had set nbout the conquest of Ivy's poor lone lamb, who, although thus singled out by the brilliant queen of beauty, longed only for one mo¬ ment's sweet converse with the real Idol of his heart.
At last Rodney, watching his chnnce, saw Ivy dart through the doorway of a darkened wing room to reach the front hall as there were some arriv¬ als. Rodney hastened Into the unlit apartment. lie clutched an escaping figure.
"The ring!" he whispered ardently. "Here It Is. You will make me so happy to wear It on your engagement finger."
The yielding form fluttered in his arms.
"You—you wouldn't kiss me, would you?" he added in wild desperation.
A pair of lips met his own. He seemed tn paradise. Voices neared. They parted precipitately. Uodney ha.s- teued back to a crowded room and sank to a chulr, feeling as If the world had beeu won. He wns In such a stnte of rhapsody that he wLshed to be alone. He looked up with a shock. He made out Ivy, and smiled at her. She seemed to turn ber back on him. She was speaking to Miss Lisle, who was animatedly flourishing a ring on her engagement finger, nnd glancing knowingly In the direction of Rod¬ ney.
The latter was crushed. He real¬ ized the truth In a flash. He hnd not met aud kissed Ivy in the dark, but oh; fatal blunder. Miss Lisle. She came toward him now In her artful way of gracefulness.
"I have just been telling our dear mutuitl friend. Miss Lane, of your jiretty present!" she said. "And oh 1 Mr. Trumbull, I promised sister to be home by eleven, and It Is now nearly midnight. Won't you see to my wraps," und almost without realizing It Rodney was bustled out of the house aud Miss Lisle was languishly hanging on his arm. prattling pretty nothings in the mellow niuonligtit.
He hated himself as an arrant cow¬ ard as he left Miss Lisle at tbe door of ber sister's home. She was a flash¬ ing flame of coquetry, she plainly con¬ sidered that they were engaged, she insisted ou his joining herself uud her friends in an auto drive the next aift- eruoou.
"I will tell her plainly of the error tdiu U laboring under. Aad I mast see Ivy!" resolved Rodaey. But when he rang at the door bell of the Laue home the next day, Mrs. Laue received him coldly and stated that Ivy was la (Mapoaed As Uoduef waat oat of the
yard Ivy's father stepped np to him.
"Mr. Tmmbnll," he mid atemiy. "I dont know what yo« havf Mid or done to hnrt my girl's feelings, hnt yon1l either mend them or itay away from here after this."
Rodney mnde one flnal bnt nnsnr- rpasfiil eftort to re»et» Tvy. He went to the office of a cousin of hers, who railed Ivy np on th«» telephone and then passed the receiver to Rodney.
"It's me. Ivy." began Rodney, tumul- fuously. "And I wnnt to explnln—"
The air became void. Ivy had hnng np the receiver.
Uodney walked aimlessly In the di¬ rection of the river. He sat down on n fallen tree and stared gloomily at the bubbling wnters. A shadow cniised him to look np. The old slren- llke. half scornful smile habitual with her npon her lips, Mis.s Lisle addressed him.
"And Vihy are ynu so engrossed In deep meditation, my loyal knight er¬ rant," she gibed.
"I wns thinking of Jumping Into the river nnd ending It all," blunUy de¬ claimed Rodney.
"Ending whnt?"
"My cowardice, my wretched pol- troonly ?" he blnze<l forth. "It was all a mistake. My kissing you."
"I know." calmly pronounced Miss Lisle. "Listen, my friend; I nm «<>- ing fo U'ave Brocfon for my city home tomorrow. You shall be free from the leal .service I have s<^ cruelly cotn- mnnded. I fear I nm n heartless jjule and coquetry my bnne. Ir\ the su-

perflcial city my wiles harm little. Here, among good, honest souls. It is wicked. I am ashamed of myself."
"But Ivy," began Rodney, "and the ring?"
She showed him that it was no long¬ er on her hand.
"Come with me," she said, "and I wtll show you where It Is now."
He was puzzled, dejected, hopeful, all at the same time. A ttSM^V 1^ feminine wiles, he dlfl not seem t* fathom the variable caprices of the whimsical beauty except by following her dumbly.
She led hira to hor sister's home, und to the door of Its parlor room.
"You win find the ring In there— whore It belongs," she said. "I fan¬ cied It flne to malce sport of a bump¬ kin lover. Believe me, I have sunk fur in my own estimation."
She opened the door, and he saw Ivy. And upon her finger—and on the en¬ gagement one—was the ring, and the siren's reparation wns complete. And Ivy put both her hands In his, and there they stood, hllssfuL
