Judging from what we saw and heard at the station last Sunday, wve almost wish we could have been among those leaving for Qglethorpe. PURPOSELY DELAYED This, the last issue of THE GAAMICoCK for the year has ,fol lowing the usual custom, been parp)nely delayed in order to in (chide anl account of important e .'en ts which would otherwise be ai ehronicet NEW RECRUITS Within the next few weeks we will see the close of another ses Jion. Nearly a hundred men have left for the service of their 'ountry, more are leaving daily, and still more will graduate in June. In the college world there is no such thing as conscription 3o the ranks must be filled thru the hard personal work of the men who have the good of the University at heart. Tihere afe in every county men who would be eager to join us if some Caro lina student or alumnus would mly call their attention to the many advantages to he obtained here. It is easy to show the Carolina ;pirit when you are on the cam pus but the place where it counts for most is out in the State. Above all remember to he a CAROLINA student twelve months in every year. THE PRESENT DUTY A month and a half ago our government entered the lists against Germany, impelled by the purest motives that ever led a nation to war. In that short time over a hundred of our fel low students have answered the all of their country's need. These men have done their duty, but we who must remain at home have a none the less important :Jut.y to perform. To most of us that duty is to stand by present tasks, and to give them the best that is in us. While we remain at the University it is safe to as sume that we consider study our present duty. If a man really believes that he is needed else where, then it is his duty to leave now to take up his new task, but until he has some definite work in view his place is in the class room. A spirit of inarked unrest, a spirit of ineflective activity per vades the campus, we find it im I)ossible to concentrate our minds upon the usual routine duties. Just at the time when most stu dents would be starting t hespring drive on exams we find that studies are being almost uni formily neglected. The mere ex cuse of excitement and military drill is not going to pass anyone. Some hard intensive study has to be done, andl done now. Some of the faculty argue that the ex eitemnent and1 distraction we are experiencing is not unique with the University. This is undoubt edlly true, yet the tact remains that this con fusion has effective ly prevented1 enti-re attention to studies. To do either the stu dents or themselves full justice the faculty must take this into consideration, D)uty stands (out clear before us.
