Excerpt from The Creighton Chronicle, Vol. 9: Oct. 20, 1917 Just prior to registration day it was remarkable in some instances how men suddenly changed ages. Several Russian Jews had taken out their naturalization papers in our District Court and had given a certain age, but at the time of the regis tration they had proof to show that they were much older, which would put them beyond the age of 31. One fellow told how he had asked a certain girl to marry him and she replied that he was too old, so in getting the marriage license, he said that he set back his age about eight years. The Federal authorities made a ruling that collateral records of age would be taken as the correct age. Several young men had given their age as 21 or more in order to obtain positions with the Street Railway Company and other corporations, but when it came to being drafted they were quick to deny that they were really men. There were a few men who failed to register on June 5th, who had a notion that they could escape. They soon learned that Uncle Sam was much better prepared to carry out his plans than they had ever dreamed of, and gradually they came in to register or sent in their registration cards. The fathers and mothers, whose sons were registered, were vigilant in seeing that all their neighbors' sons were registered Publication by newspapers of lists of the men registered proved a great help to the government.

Excerpt from The Creighton Chronicle, Vol. 9: April 20, 1918 The forty-eight hours at the Aisne home can be spent in sleep if the man so desires, but the forty-eight hours at the paste may allow twenty hours of sleep, one hour of sleep, and maybe no hours of sleep. It all depends on the number of wound ed and the activity along the front - one of the fronts 65 was on meant forty-eight hours of steady work; that front was the Chemin des Dames.

Excerpt from The Creighton Chronicle, Vol. 10: May 20, 1919 That a good man may have a bad title and, conversely, that a worthless man may have a good title to property, has been demonstrated so frequently, in and out of the court room, that, in these days, the personal element may be considered as climi hated from the consideration of titles. It is never safe now to assume that a title to land is free from defects. Irregularities and imperfections of title may arise in so many ways, either by some act, or failure to act, of the pres ent or some past owner, or by operation of law, that common prudence requires a close scrutiny of the history of ownership of the property from the government grant down to the present time.

Excerpt from The Creighton Chronicle, Vol. 9: Jan. 20, 1918 There is something grotesque in the fairly common estimate of Shaw as an immoral writer who is intellectually impregnable; when, as a matter of fact, he has the highest moral purpose, but a defective mental vision, a defective vision, though by no means an utter lack of vision; just as there are myopic men whose eyesight will not serve to keep them from walking off into the gutters or bumping into other pedestrians, yet who can discover flaws in a diamond if held just before their noses. The really pathetic thing about Shaw is that, knowing his moral pur pose to be excellent, he insists also that his vision is the only normal one, whilst all the rest of men are abnormal. This is not the last word in explanation of him: only God knows that ex planation completely. And even to understand this partial ex planation we must consider a few of the many facts which Shaw has so generously placed at the disposal of his critics.
