You men of nineteen sixteen, then,
bear in mind that the reason of these
seeming afflictions is not to puff the
vanity of those who have arrived
but a little ahead of yourselves; rath-
er do they exist for your own eventual
well being.
Remember what a timorous crew
the presentsvaliant, blood-seeking
sophs were last year?
No, 1916, full professor doesn't have
that meaning at all.

HALL

A CIVIL GREETING
To the four professors in the civil;
engineering department The Daily bids
welcome. Three have come in off the.
field, so to speak, and one has left
another university where he was held
in high esteem, to help put the civil
engineering department of the Univer-
sity of Michigan on a par with the best.
universities of the country. Due to
the influence of the late dean Charles
E. Greene, one of the great bridge en-
gineers of his day, the department has
in the past, confined its energies to
turning out structural engineers. Now
we have a department which will not
pound all the square pegs through
round holes, but will turn out men who
will be as well equipped in hydraulic,
sanitary, muicipal, transportation
and geodetie, (as well as structural)
engineering, as were the structural
men who have made Michigan men
famous for their preparation in one
line. To the dean who has made the
change possible, and to the men who
are to carry the brunt of the work in-
volved in the changes, we say, "Good
luck."
AN EVALUATION.

Noah W. Says:
SCINTILLATE-1. To emit sparks;
to spark. 2. To sparkle or twinkle,
as the fixed stars.
That's us. Let us have no further
discussion on this point.
Spare Him For His Mother's Sake.
He slapped her on the wrist, but
she got her meet. She was a butcher's
dott-er.

Hearken! Attention Poets!
No colyum of pure reason like this
here is complete without a pome or
two every day, We must have pomes.
To encourage the pome business, we
will print any good practical pome
sent to The Scintillator.
(NOTE: Letters addressed "Skinny,"
or in other bold or endearing lan-
guage will be torn asunder and cre-
mated. So there.)

Now that the excitement attendant;
upon the return to school is subsiding,
and we are beginning to assume our
respective roles in college activities,
it is not out of place to take stock of

WILL DIVIDE UNION DANCE
HALL BY SLIDING CURTAINS
Tn order to make small socials and
dinners at the Michigan Union more
private, arrangements have been made
whereby the large dance hall will be
divided by sliding curtains. These
curtains will extend from the ceiling
beams to the floor and will be sus-
pended by rings on a wire. The ob-
ject of this is to allow the members
who are attending an affair to assem-
ble in the front end .of the hall and
then pass behind the curtains to the
rear where the tables will be placed.
At the time of dances and large gath-
erings the curtains will be drawn
back against the wall.

which obtain here.
Particularly the first year men find
themselves in a new environment, with
their conduct more or less wedged in
by apparently arbitrary traditions. To
those freshmen to whom the rules
respecting grey caps, smoking on the
campus and others, seem irksome, a
word of explanation may serve to dis-
pel any misgivings concerning their
usefulness.
The standard of justification by
which to measure such practices, par-
ticularly in a state university, is not
hard to find. Briefly, it is the devel-
opment of the capacity for service in
after life. Between this standard and
the mooted regulations, the connection
is close. The capacity for service in
any individual depends primarily on
his personal attitude; to obtain that
end there must first arise the corres-
ponding desire. This desire can exist
only when the individual gets out of
self and realizes the rights and needs
of others. It is just this fundamental
attitude that Michigan traditions are
created to develop. In a concrete way
they should bring home to the last
year's high school senior the realiza-+
