FOURTH MILITARY STORES COURSE
December 1917

The fourth session of the Military Stores. Course conducted by the Tuck School opened on October 23 with an enrollment of approximately twenty-five men. The session is similar to the three preceding ones, and offers instruction in the stores and accounting service of the Ordnance Department. The courses given include storekeeping methods and principles, ordnance accountability, army regulations, transportation, elements of topographical drawing, and conversational French. Military drill is being conducted under the direction of Captain Keene and Lieutenant Pickett. Sergeant Myron J. Files '14, who was an instructor in the English Department of the College last year, and who took the second Military Stores course in the Tuck School this summer and subsequently spent five weeks of intensive training at the Watertown Arsenal, has been detailed by the War Department to act as an instructor in the present session of the school.

Dartmouth is represented by only four men in this session, a smaller number than has been in attendance at any of the previous sessions. These men are C. C. Butts '11, W. S. Currier '14, D. B. Olson '16, and L. P. Seiler '18. Other colleges represented by graduates and non-graduates include Boston College, Boston University, Catholic University of Washington, Harvard, Holy Cross, University of Minnesota, and Purdue University.
