Half the colleges of the country will

Provost Smith believe?. however, that
t(he Government will remunerate the ed- '
UcAtlonal lustltullonH whleh hao main

Provost Smith's comment was piompt- I
ed by the statement of Secretary of
War Baker that tlie liov eminent Is not
responsible for what ho terms the
"prospective profits" of the colleges.
"I feel absolutely certain that the I
Government will do the right thing by I
the colleges 'n the matter of reimburse-
ment." he said I
"The Government could ill-afford to
ollovv higher educational Institutions to
be stranded because of a situation which
has arisen from their own choosing,"
continued t'rovost Smith "If no resti
tution Is made, at least .10 per cent of
the educational Ins-tltutlons In America
where a unit has been established will
be driven to the wall, financially ruined.
Such a cour.se has never been tho policy
of the Government In any previous

WASHINGTON GIVES
THANKS FOR PEACE

By the Associated Pre
WuNhlnrton, Xch -8
Deep feelings of gratitude and thank
fulness, greater than can come to a
nation through material prosperits, per
vaded America's observance of Thanks
giving Day. Peace with victory after
nineteen months of war gave the day
much udded significance.
Tho declaration of President Wilson In
his Thanksgiving proclamation that "this
jear we have special and moving cause
to be grnteful and to lejoice." appeared
to express the true sentiments of the
.Vinericnn nonle. Successes of the na
tlon's military forces on land and sexi
made the occasion a "victory day" as
well as a thanksgiving day. There also
came a realization as expressed by the
President that 'a new day snines aooui
us In which our hearts take new courage
and look forward vv 1th new hope to new
and greater duties."
Many celebrations of the day centered
rilrectlv around the soldiers nnd sailors.
Community Thanksgiving services, com
inunltsvsong services and "lctory cele-
bratlons" were held In many pans oi
the country
In the trnlnlng camps In tins coun
tr-, ln the navy and among the forces
overseas nil enorts were uenoeo lunmu
making the day a memorable or. In
this countrj citizens oieued their homes
to men ln uniform, while abroad an.
In the navy preparations had been made
to brlpg "s many home comforts to the
men uh possible.
Washington observed the day quieuj
.and In accordance with the Pitsiaents
proclamation. In the churches were neiu
I services, vv hieh were uttended b high
i Government officials and depaitmenl

Thanksgiving dinner at the White House
was a. simple affair, only thevinembers
of the President's famllj being present.

Quality Is Insurance
(XXJA- COLA" remain ' exactly! the same
product that it wai before the war; the output
reduced but the quality maintained no change
made in order to dilute or cheapen or in any other
manner alter your drink.
The quality of Coca-Cola is our only insur
ance of business for the future and our best safe
guard against the piracy of unscrupulous manufac
turers who seek to take advantage of our reduced
output by palming off concoctions colored and
flavored to imitate Coca-Cola.
When you order Coca-Cola, ask for it by its
full name and demand the genuine. Your palate
will tell you whether you've been imposed upon.
If you suspect that you've been served with a sub
stitute, put the question squarely up to the dealer.
