IS ACTIVE AMONG STUDENTS
At the fall meeting of the local anti-
tuberculosis society, held in the new
medical building yesterday, plans were
iaid for a vigorous membership com-
paign among the students to assist in
disseminating information about tuber-
culosis and in selling the Christmas

the next three months by a visiting
nurse employed by the local branch
of the society in order to obtain a
complete description of conditions af-
fecting the prevalence of the white
plague.

THIRTEEN GET PERFECT MARKS
Pamphlets showing the percentage
of different grades given at the June
examination were distributed among
the faculty members yesterday. If
it were possible for students to obtain
copies of the book, they would serve
as valuable guides to the "pipe" cours-
es, for the tables show the grades
given by each instructor in the literary
department. To prevent "snap" cours-
es from becoming over-crowded, thel
pamphlets are being kept strictly sub-
rosa by the faculty.
Thirteen students in the literary de-
partment finished last semester's work
with perfect grades in every subject.
of this number, five were seniors, two
were juniors, four were sophomores
and ,two were freshmen.
The total number of marks given
was 9,673, of which 14 per cent was
A, 33 per cent B, 40 per cent C, 10 per
cent D, and 3 per cent E. Incompletes
numbered 60 and absences from ex-
aminations, 172.
The tables were compiled by Reg-
istrar Hall and they are said to be the
first of their kind from an institution
as large as Michigan.
NEGRO EDUCATOR TO AWAKEN
NEW INTEREST IN HIS RACE.
Booker T. Washington, in Lecture
Here, Will Show Effect of
His Work in South.
The awakening of a wider and more
intelligent interest in the education o01
the negro is the chief object of Book-
er T. Washington's visit to Ann Arbor
next Monday According to ti Tus-
keegee Southern Letter, the tour of
the noted educator will have the effect
of showing just what work is being
done for the benefit of the negro.
The letter is in part as follows:
"Beginning at Ann Arbor, Principal
Washington plans to make an eight-
day tour through the State of Michi-
gan, touching all the principal cities
of the lower peninsula.
"During the years that this institu-
tion has been sending out graduates
and students into every part of the
south, it has not only greatly extended
its influence but correspondingly In-
creased its responsibilities, until the
time has now arrived when the school
must in some 'way considerably in-
crease its sources of income or it will
not be able to follow up the work it
has begun or to fulfill its peculiar mis-
sion in the life of the race and the
south."

eral sessions will begin' Friday morn-
ing and close Saturday noon. Friday

of the sections, which are as follows:
Elementary, secondary, college, nor-
mal school, public speaking.
The principal topics to be discussed
are as follows: Grammatical Nomen-
clature, Types of Organization of High

Would Prefer to Have Son Join Good'
Fraternity Than Spend Time
In Lecture Hall.
DR. ,JACOBY TO SPEAK AGAIN.'
Henry C. Adams, Jr., '13, has been
appointed chairman of a committee to
canvass the faculty for Michigan Un-
ion memberships. To date some 60 fac-
ulty men have taken out memberships,
but this number together with the 50
or more faculty members who have
subscribed for life memberships does
not bring the total up to a figure at
all proportionate with the entire num-
ber of faculty men at Michigan. It
is hoped that a personal solicitation,
will result in a great increase in the
faculty membership of the Union for
the year 1912-13.-
Other members of the Faculty cam-
paign committee are: literary depart-
ment, R. C. Dexter, '13; Harold Doug-
as, '13; Edgar Mowrer, '13; John Reig-
hard, '13; William 'P Daugherty, '13;
engineering department, S. R. Trues-
dell, '13E; G. F. Wicks, '13 E; Bruce
Anderson, '13E; law department,
Burke Shartel, '13L; medic depart-
ment, Charles Kennedy, '13M and War-
ren Vaughan, '14; homeopathic depart-
ment, Norman Starr, '13H; dent de-
partment, Fred Thosold, 15 dent;
pharmic department, D. K. Stricklan
'13, pharmic.
Members of this committee are, ex-
pected to attend the membership ,cam-

Department Has Proved
'Sncess I est.
The engineering department n w
boasts of four women students. 'p1 s
Itary engineering. Miss Quick, 'iSE,
who is enrolled in the civil depart-
ment took all the regular freshman
work, including shop. Miss Goff, '14E,
and Miss Peters are enrolled in the ar-
chitecture' course.
Miss Hamilton is intending to use
her knowledge of sanitary engineering
in settlement work or to engage in
business with her father.
According to the secretary of the
engineering department, the experi-
ment of admitting girls to their de-
partment has been highly successful,
the women students sometimes out-
stripping the rest of the class in their
marks. Miss L. R. McComber, '04, was
the first woman to graduate from the
engineering department.

One o fthe ruls of

Greifswald, Germany, in his lecture
at Tappan hall last night. "Dante,
Goethe, and Shakespeare lived too long
ago to have a social influence on liv-
ing men. The old classical writers are
\for one's reflective moods, but living
men can get more out of life by imi-
tatihg the best of their contemporar-
ies. Cultural education does not nec-
essarily rean 'efinement. Its object
is merely to deyelop one's conscious-
ness."
As in former years, the Regents have
placed funds in the hands of President
H. B. Hutchins for the bringing to
Ann Arbor of distinguished foreign
scholars to lecture before the univer-
sity. Dr. Jacoby, who has been in
the United States for some months
investigating the departments of phil-
osophy and psychology in the leading
American universities, is the first vis-
itor this year.
His lecture last night, which was
under the auspices of the Education
club, was the first of a series of six
which he will deliver in Ann Arbor
this week, The others will be given as
follows: This afternoon, "Bergson,
Pragmatism, and Schopenhauer;" to-
morrow, "Pragmatism in Germany;"
Thursday, "The English, the American
and the German Ideal of Manhood,"
under the auspices of the Deutscher
Verein; Friday, "A New Movement in
German Thought;" Friday evening,
"A philosophy of Working Assump-
tions," under the auspices of the Aco-
lytes. All the lectures except the one
on Friday evening will be held in the
Economics lecture room at 4:30
o'clock. The latter will be held at
7:30 p. m. in room 205 North wing.
The lectures are open to the general
public.
