DR. WYLIE TALKS TO SOLDIERS ON CAMPUS
Vesper Speaker Arrives to Find Service Postponed-Telegram Did Not Reach Him
   Although the October Vesper service was cancelled, the telegram announcing the fact did not reach the speaker. and the Rev. Dwight Witherspoon Wylie, pastor of the St. Paul Presbyterian church at Phyladelphia reached the University Saturday. 
   Here, Dr. Wylie was glad to address groups of soldiers gathered on the campus Saturday evening, and again on Sunday afternoon. Dr. Wylie found appropriateness in the election of the University campus as a central point of assemblage for young men who are to serve their country as soldiers and scholars. He addressed the students with the following words:
  "From the classic halls of the Old capitol and the more massive structures that stand within its shadow have come governors of states, United States senators, law-makers of state and nation; educators; diplomats; merchants princes; famous saants[?] - indeed every department of life[?] has men and women from Iowa University, and out into the whole world they have gone into service of one type or another. 
"You young men of the S.A.T.C. are starting a work here, which has a world meaning. 
   "A new Monroe doctrine has been annunciated in these martial days It [illegible]:
   This world has no place for desots[?] to plant colonies. 
   "The new era, the new epoch in world-history, spells a great change in the life of every citizen today. It is[?] changing you from boys into men. It will also take away many things once thought worth while. 
   The storm often puts out the compass lights- but then a man must steer by the stars. 
   "You are to leave your imprint on the world of today and tomorrow; even as your influence on the homes which you have left is now impressively felt. Here beats the heart of Iowa, and here you are sitting the standard of manhood. 
   The army has no place for the man who is not to be depended upon. 
   Loyalty to God and country means the acceptance of responsibility."
   Evelyn Babcock of the education library, who has been ill with the spanish influenza, is reported to be better.
