life in that university and so far i of the entire World a feeling of re-
as we can remember we never heard lief from an awful strain which had
one suggestion from any member
of the faculty on how to create a
i.appy home. Yet there were more
homes being created in the minds
and hearts of those students than
any other one thing. But we did
not dare mention it. It would have
been the joke of the whole institu-
tion. There were just about as
many boys in school as girls, all
taking exactly the same courses—
M. A., B. A., or B. S., which ever
happened not to have the studies
they disliked most. Every course
leads toward some profession. So
that was all we Jieard. They were
laying the foundation for the boy's
future work. Our ideas were men's
ideas of women's work. We were
trained by men. For a few years
we used our manly ideas and our
manly education in another college
for young women. We learned to
think as a man, to understand as
a man, but when we became a wo-
man, when we took up our real life
weighed upon them for years. The
world, itself, on both sides of the
great struggle was held in such
painful suspense, as to what the
outcome might be, that seasoned de-
liberation could hardly be secured
along any line of activity. Now
that the war is over, this lo id has
been lifted, and all energies will cen-
ter on the arts of peace. Even the
Teutons themselves are settling
down to a more certain line of ac-
tivity, looking forward to recon-
struction and satisfaction of the
demands of the allies, and that with
a more hopeful disposition.
Our religious, political, and even
moral customs have been greatly
modified and some even start out
on a new basis for facing the future.
Narrow views have given way to
broader; local economic policies to
national; national statesmanship;
sectional customs and ideals have
given way to the demands of world
standards. Because of this general

to 1917 on the staff of the New-
York Times Sunday Magazine.
As a poet, Joyce Kilmer's chosen
field was one of gracious and tender
harmony. Some of his poems will
remain in print for a long time, for
they c«rrv a genuine life and emo-
tion that touches intubate hu-
man concerns. Others will be cher-
ished for their religious sentiment,
and still others for their expression
of simple friendliness and poignance
of the ordinary human heart.
On entering the war he made
great personal sacrifices, because
he had a wife and four children. He
was with the 7th regiment of New
York at first, but was later muster-
ed into the 165th infantry of the
National Army. In France he was
appointed sergeant in the regimental
intelligence department, which he
