But if we add person- ality to the necessary qualities of our best students, why not add capacity to eat beef steak, or the ability to ne- gotiate the hundred yards in ten fiat. Michigan has her societies for the men of personality and social ambi- tions, Michigan has her societies for her athletes and her campus celebri- ties, but at the present time Michigan has no organization purely for the scholar and the scholar alone. Either this is true or the bland announce- ments given us each spring are un- true. We should like to see Phi Beta Kap- pa come out squarely for the student, purely for intellectual excellence. We would not care whether its neophytes spoke .to us on the street, whether they were able to meet us and smoke a cigar with us, without embarass- ment, or not. We could still retain a deep admiration for their brain pow- ers; we would, and public opinion would in a few years. A scholarship society! Why note?

VING F. SCHLEEDE, 340S. STATE STREET JUST SCHOLARSHIP. Generally speaking, scholarship has gone a begging in this money-worship- ing America of ours. An inscrutable American public has no deep respect or enthusiasm for scholarship, purely as scholarship; for brains, purely as brains. Brains that amass great for- tunes, muscle that wins athletichpres- tige, are America's shrines. What is true of our larger public opinion is true of the university thought. Last spring, we read of an enthu- siastic torch light parade at one of the. German universities, in honor and ap- preciation of a distinguished visiting lecturer. Later, that same lecturer came to Ann Arbor. He went unno- ticed except by the newspapers and a small coterie of learned enthusiasts. Michigan was too busy celebrating a victory of brawn and athletic cunning to give any attention to a world-famed writer and scholar. In deference to public opinion the newspapers gave him but passing attention. Quite a contrast! Even our faculties have become pos- sessed of the public mind. Herculean efforts have been made to maintain a respectable standing for scholarship and learning, but at the same time to] cater to the intellectual indifference of the public. Each spring, we have announced to us the selection of a few shining students. Each spring we have the best students of the class singled out for us, but not as the best students alone. The selections are made with the added proviso, the bland acknowledgment that the students have been selected on a basis of schol- arship and personality. Why personality? Personality has little to do with scholarship, in the ab- stract. Personality is a desirable qual- * * B * * * * * * * * * TONSILLITIS. by Dr. Howard Hastings Cummings * * * * * * * * * 209 So uth 8Ste--®t The Chub To prevent or cure tonsillitis, follow these suggestions: 1. Practice deep breathing through the nose. 2. Avoid exposure to wet and cold. 3. Avoid warm, dusty, crowded places of amusement. 4. Do not associate with those who have the disease, because it is conta- gious. 5. If you feel chilly and have'only a slight sore throat, take a cathartic, and gargle the throat with salt and warm water. 6. Do not neglect a sore throat, for diphtheria is unusually prevalent this year. Consult the physcians at the health service. 7. If you suffer from repeated at- tacks of tonsillitis or quinsy, or have adenoids, have the diseased tissue re- moved at once. The tonsils are two ovoid bodies, al- most hidden in recesses, one on either side of the throat, and like the appen- dix, their function is not definitely known. They are probably intended to act as sentinels, guarding the body against harmful germs. The symptoms of tonsilitis are: chills, fever, aching pains in the back and limbs, and soreness of the throat, causing difficulty in swallowing. Ex- amination shows swollen, red tonsils containing yellowish-gray spots. Us- C . C.reetrva.ra, Pr * * r ually within -a week, these symptoms grow less severe, but they leave the patient very weak. This form of throat infection cannot always be distin- guished from diphtheria, except by ex- amination of swabs taken from the throat. Repeated attacks of tonsillitis may lead to rheumatism, deafness or diseases of- the heart. Back of the nose there is normally tosillar tissue, which often becomes infected and gives rise to adenoid veg- etations. A person with adenoids breathes through the mouth and be- comes rather dull or even stupid if the condition remains a few years. Students with adenoids complain of incessant headaches and inability to concentrate, and usually they are be- low the average in their college work.'

FINE TAILORING TRADE * * OF INTEREST TO WOMEN. (Edited by Stylus.) * We can and do give you the limit of excell- ence in Tailoring, this issue, with a complete line of up-to-date woolens, makes us the leaders in our line. Respectfully, Sam Burchfield & Co. i XMAS GIFTS * * * * * * * * * * * A campaign has been started by the Detroit association of Michigan alum- nae for a third hall of residence, and- the local committee is taking active steps to aid the association by calling in outstanding subscriptions and solic- iting new ones. Because this movement is of the ut- most importance to the Michigan women of the future, and since the older alumnae are giving so generous- ly of their money, time, and influence,' the committee has expressed a hope that all undergraduate women will al- so lend their support. Every woman is asked to use her influence during the Christmas vacation to interest her relatives and friends in the campaign, and to come back prepared to con- tribute at least 50 cents to the fund. There are over eight hundred women in the university; 50 cents from each one would mean over four hundred dollars; and no doubt there are par- ents and friends whose generosity would greatly increase this sum, if their interest were aroused. Contributions will be received by the members of the committee, of which Miss Louise Conklin, '14, is chairman. Other members are: Mrs. Jordan, Mrs. E. D. Kinney, Misses Margaret Foote, '15, Alma Dumont, '16, The Michigan alumnae association of Washington has written to the wom- en's league, asking that it be allowed to do something in the way of supply- ing books, magazines or furniture. The league has requested that the as- sociation take charge of the magazine subscriptions for the reading room in Barbour gymnasium. The league bazaar, which was to be held next Friday afternoon in Bar- bour gymnasium, has been indefinitely postponed, and in its place will be given a regular league party, featured by a short sketch entitled, "Christmas in a Country School." Mrs. F. P. Jordan, 923 Olivia Place, Mrs. C. F. Gute, 1913 Cambridge Road, Miss Catherine Bigelow, 1004 Oakland avenue, and Mrs. W. D. Henderson, 1001 Forest avenue, will receive from 3:00 to 5:30 o'clock this afternoon. JMUSIC AND DRAMA. "The Third Degree." The engagement of "The Third De- gree," at the Whitney theatre this week, offers a rare opportunity to see Charles Klein's play in a successful tabloid version.

"The Third Degree" is duplicating its original suc- cess. Performances will be given at the Whitney 'tonight and Wednesday night, with a matinee Wednesday af- ternoon at 3:00 o'clock. Popular pric- es will prevail. PROFESSOR LEVI TO OPEN CEICLE FRANCAIS COURSE Prof. Moritz Levi will lecture on "Le Theatre de Maurice Maeterlinck" in French, at 5:00 o'clock today in Tappan hall.
