tom of the club to send out circular
letters, direct to factories and offi-
cers, asking for positions which would
be open to graduates. Last year- there
were 15 positions secured at an aver-
age salary of $75 per month. Let-
ters have been sent to the commercial
secretaries of the various cities, ask-
ing them to list with the commerce
club, names of concerns which would
be in a position to employ college
graduates. To the firms which are re-
ported, will be sent one of the booklets
and a letter asking them to list with
the employment bureau any openings
which they may have. These lists will
be posted for the use of the seniors
belonging to the commerce club, and
later be open to those not affiliated
with that organization.
MUSEUM RECEIVE
GIANT BIRD'S EGGS
Ex-Governor Chase S. Osborn has
presented to the university museum, '
a specimen of a fossil egg of an ex-
tinct species of giant bird that was
known as the Aepyornis maximus, and1
which inhabited the earth about ten
thousand years ago. This egg, which
is one of a very few specimens of its
kind now in existence has an enhanc-
ed value on account of the extreme
dangers which Mr. Osborn suffered in
procuring it while on his South Amer-
ican trip in the vicinity of the island
of Madagascar, and as a consequence,
it takes its place among the very valu-
ed possessions of the university mu-
seum.
The measurement of the egg is over
3 inches in its largest circumference,
and it is also interesting to note that
the egg is as big as 6 average sized
ostrich eggs, and is computed -to be
equal in size to 148 hens' eggs. The
specimen is contemporaneous with
pre-historic man, and the shell of the
egg shows a rough hole, seemingly
made by one of these early "earth
dwellers" with a flint, in order to get
out the contents. The bird itself has
been estimated to have been about 8
feet high and was of the ostrich or
flyless variety.
The museum officials have placed
the egg on temporary exhibition in the
lower hall of the museum, and the
public is invited to make a closer in-
spection of the specimen. Mr Osborn
is expected to return to America about
the middle of July, and he is bringing
with him, a wonderful collection of
African curiosities, many of which
will probably go to enrich the mu-
seums throughout the state.
AT OTHER COLLEGES
Graduating classes at Cornell are
raising funds as class memorials, in-
stead of presenting bridges, fountains,
etc. The 1914 committee has begun
active work toward raising $150,000
among the alumni, etc. The money is
used for general expenses. Last year's
class raised nearly $125,000.
Sophomores at California are giving
a theatre party as their final class
function of the year.
The student court at Wisconsin
found three sophomores guilty of
falsification under oath and wrongful
use of class funds, the penalty being
disbarment from office for the re-
mainder of their college course. Two
of the justices dissented, and will ap-
peal the case to the faculty on the
ground that the punishment was in-
sufficient.
Save Your Health
"A GOOD LITTLE DEVIL."
The Orpheum Theatre again is Vic-
torious over the capture of Daniel
Frohman's largest masterpiece, and
biggest theatrical success entitled,
"A Good Little Devil."
The story, which is well-known,
written by Rosemonde Gerard and
Maurice Rostard, has been 'a great
theatrical hit throughout this coun-
try. The original cast, including Wil-
liam Norris and Ernest Truex, assisted
by Miss Mary Pickford, in the leading
roll assures us that this pliture will
surpass anything ever shown in Ann
Arbor.

tributed to the memorial volume to be

burgh to commemorate the John Na-
pier tercentenary which will be cele-
brated in Edinburgh in July, 1914.
The committee also voted to con-

Bacon, which will be issued in con-
nection with the seventh centenary of
that author at Oxford this summer.
The library will receive copies of both
volumes.

Menorah National Body, Congregation

Jewish students at the University of
Michigan have two distinct organiza-
tions; one to meet for religious wor-
ship, the other to study Jewish cul-
ture and ideals. The Menorah is
purely cultural, the Congregation is
purely religious. The Menorah is one
of 40 student organizations in as many'
universities having an intercollegiate
organization, the congregation is a
local body.
The Menorah society was organized
at Michigan in 1910. The congrega-
tion was organized this winter through
the influence of Rabbi Leo A\
lin, the head of a Reform Je'
gregation in Detroit. Somi
leading members have hith
fused to become identified
