Our Sen)Sitiv e Extremities .
Among other things Michigan is
blessed with.- an exceedingly large
number of people whose pedal extrem-
ities are over-sensitive. This is not
peculiar to members of the student
body but extends right through the
faculty from instructor to professor.
It is a strange state or condition and
does not readily yield itself to treat-
ment. Yet it is the chief obstacle in
the path of the Daily staff.
The staff is attempting to give Mlichi-
igan a newspaper every morning. Some
know a little about journalism, others
are still trying to master the rudi-
ments, But, one and all, they are do-
ing their best to give to the members
of the university a fair and unbiased
account of university happenings.
.. To do this The Michigan Daily must
-be free. There is as much danger in
supprecsing some news as there is in
running other happe'nings. To be fair
in all respects and to present the
"norm" of student opinion, there must
be no interference on the part of
frieilds, or critics, no matter where
*they be,
- All that is printed is not pretty, but
the function of the newspaper, to our,
mind, is somewha~t akin to that of ex-
pert surgeon. While in the process of
operating, his work looks anything
but nice, but when the patient has
been freed of his affliction and is on
- he road to recovery we cannot but
admire the result, Just so does the
newspa~per find it necessary to cut and
slash. The growth must be cut away,
and, while this process may not be
ge nice, glance ahead at the general re-
sult and the end towards which the pa-
per strives,
- Surrounded as we are by our
friends and by everything we like, it
is hard at timles to rive an exactly un-
k prejudiced report of all happenings.
W're are liable to err because we are
strongly in symnpathy with every man
10 and evei-y mo',-ment tha.t are for the
good of the university. So, when some-
thing is printed that does not exactly
strike your fancy or makes you believe
that someone has trod upon the sensi-
tive toe, do not proceed to pull the
paper to pieces bit by bit or swear at
the editors. Look ahead just a little
'further than the aforesaid toes and see
what we are trying to accomplish and
then hold back the hammer until you
perceive the general result.
MUSIC AND DRAMA
Th'Cat and the Fiddile."
When Chas. A. Sellon's "Cat and the
Fiddle" plays here at the Whitney the-
ater on Thursday, April 25, Harry B.
Watson, that "'Easy Chap" comedian,
will be seen' in the 1 encgidaom
will be seen in the leading comedy
role. Mr. Watson is rapidly glaining
an enviable position among the fore-
most ranks of our comedians, and a
brilliant future is assured him. He is
ably supported by a capable company
or over forty people.
The music and lyrics of "Thle Cat
,end The Fiddle" are by Carleton Lee
Colby, and are said to be bright, new,
whistly and catchy. Among the new
numbers may be mentioned "My Maid
in the Moon," ;Mother Goose and Il3r
Baby Dolls," "Teddy in the Jungles,"
and several others,
