The Law club may or may not be

Several young instructors in the en-
gineering school have not started re-
search work to find all the jokes of
this sort ever bandied about. A can-
vass of the magazines in the dent-
ists' offices nay reveal much which
otherwise might be overlooked. Sev-
eral of these instructors do not intend
to earn their masters' degrees by do-
ing this research.

cause it is the Michigan J-Hop, that
he should have the job. Mellie equal-
ly strenuously asserts that they have
no reason to keep him out. Very
likely a compromise of some kind will
be effected.

The man who invented the double

enough to the students to -warrant re-

But imagine a degree to anman for
foisting such an atrocity off on the
world.
Mr. promo and Mr. Seltzer have also
done a lot toward making life easier
for everyone in the University.
Might they not be given at least a
master's degree along with Doctor
Lister? Think of the insidious things
he has saved humanity from in the

is a time in the development of the
modern mitid when doubt is actually
a sacred thing. Like religion, it be-
comes an emotion. But little by lit-
tle it is transmuted into something
else. The bright Mr. Hoffman inti-
mated that this interesting little so-
ciety might be taken merely as "a
fashionable way of saying 'Boo!' to
the older generation." There is a
good deal of that spirit in undergrad-
uate atheism. And who can deny
that it is sometimes good for a com-
placent older generation to be said
"Boo!" to?
