"I AM A SOLDIER"

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The announcement of Major-General Wood's transfer to the new Southeastern Department comes as a somewhat unpleasant surprise. General Wood has been so closely connected with all military activities at Harvard during the last two years that the loss of his valuable supervision and keen interest will be regretted by the entire University. No more splendid administrative record rests to the credit of any man. Added to this he has carried on a country-wide campaign for national preparedness that has aroused the youth of this country to their patriotic responsibilities and the older generation to the shocking need of legislation for large military appropriations.

The Harvard men who are to be future officers will find no finer example of an officer than General Wood, and no better motto to follow in the perilous future than, "I am a soldier, and I go where I am sent."
