PARCEL POST -HAS
HEAVY PATRONAGE
Records Prove New System to be More
Popular Here Than in
- Larger Cities.
IS 1110 SUCCESS WITH STUDENTS..
According to the post office records
of the fifteen days trial given the par-
cel post, the Ann Arbor office has han-
dled almost twice as many packages
as some offices in harger cities through-
out the state. This would seem to in-
licate that the new system has proved
?opular with the students. The 15-
Jay record was kept according to in-
structions from Washington and 4,147
incoming parcels were received at the
local office averaging in weight one
and three quarters pounds. There
were 2,500 osutgoing packages weigh-
'ng on the average one and a' quarter
>ounds and costing in postage $.O.-
43.
The postmaster has asked for one
aew . clerk and delivery man to han-
Ile the business. Two deliveries a
day are made and everyone who has
had occasion to compare its operation
with that of the express companies is
ecnvinced of its efficiency.
A new order has been issued from
Washington which increases the scope
of the system and enables a still great-l
er saving to the people. The order is:
'Order forms, address tags, reportl
:orms, letter and bill heads, insurance
end legal forms, cards and other sim-
lar supplies regardless of printing on
.hem, blank check bcos, receiptI
books and other book forms partially
n print, may be mailed as fourth class
natter." Formerly such matter was
considered as third class and costing
ight cents a pound. This will effect
I big saving especially to concerns
,nailing any great amount of such
Matter.
No doubt many people have missed
-he mail boxes' that formerly stood on
he corners of South University and
State and William and State. These
boxes were so mutilated from being
run into that they were removed and
will be replaced as soon as new ones
can be procured.

NOT HOLD DANCE
Lack of Interest May Cause Hoppers
to Give Up Annual
Formal Party.
WILL MEET AG AIN WEDNESDAY.
Independents may hold no formal
party on Saturday evening following
the Junior hop as has been the custom
in the past. At a meeting of the inde-
pendents at the Michigan Union yes-
terday afternoon a decided lack of in-
terest was shown in the affair.,
Independents to the number of 39
will attend the hop itself. This is a
slightly larger number than attended
last year. Many of the 39, however,
are not strictly independents, belong-
ing to organizations which are not rep-
resented in the hop management.
Those organizations will hold house
parties which will conflict with the
Saturday evening affair which the in-
dependents are accustomed to hold.
Although nothing definite has been
decided, Frank Kohler, independent
representative, believes that the an-
nual function cannot be held unless
a livelier interest is displayed. The
independents will have an opportuni-
ty to decide whether or not they will
follow the precedent of past hoppers,
it the next meeting to be held at the
Michigan Union Wednesday at 7:00
o'clock. It is important for all inde-
pendents to be present at this final
meeting.
If interest in the formal party is
revived the annual dance will be held

HONOR SYSTEM
CIassr in Iisto ' t n Educat:om Will
Unde:go Semester' ExnmxainAtions
ot. oft(: Piedy Of
FACULTY MEN D9 NOT AIGREE
AS TO EFFICACY OF SCHE1E
Profs. J. S. P. Tatlock and W. A. Fray.
er and Mr. C. J. Coe State
Their Views on Plan.
Various opinions are bein; express-
ed over the campus as to the merits
and demerits of the "honor system"
which has recently been adopted by
six classes under Prof. C. 0. Davis,
of the education department, and
Prof. E. R. Turner, of the history de-
partment, and is to be used in the fin-
al exams. Altogether, 455 students
will take exams under the new
scheme, the majority of them being
freshmen. Prof. Davis' students are
juniors and seniors.
"The present system of giving ex-
aminations is bad," declared Prof J.
S. P. Tatlock, of the English depart-
ment in discussing the proposed "hon-
or system." "They are given under
crowded conditions, so that it is al-
most imupossible for a student not to
see what his neighbor is writing, and,
no matter what his good intentions
may be, his eye falls involuntarily at
times upon h:s fellowstudent's work.
As a rule they are settled alternately,
but that is not enough. At present
we are on the fence, as far as the
honor system is conerned; we should
definitely decide one way or the other.
While I do not believe the honor ,sys-
tem would make conditions ideal, it
would, I think, improve them a great
deal."
"The honor system is practically in
ise now," declared Prof. W. A. Frayer
=o his class in history 1 yesterday
morning, "although it is not recogniz-
ed by that name. I do not believe that
: signed statement at the end of a
blue-book will make conditions any
'etter than they are now: If a student
will cheat, he is very apt to lie as well.
Students are always, as a matter of
,ourse, expected to be on their honor
.vhen writing examinations, and
should be above suspicion."
Mr. Carl Jenness Coe, instructor in
nathematics, also stated that such a
System is in quite general use, except
for the written statement which the
So-called "honor system" calls for.
The average instructor, he said, will
frequently leave his classes during
examirations, for a short time, and
takes it for granted that an honor code
will be observed. He said he did not
gee the use of introducing a scheme
which virtually exists now without the
name.
The general opinion is that if the
system is to be widely instituted upon
the campus, the students should take
the initiative, either as classes, or
through the student council. Profes-
sors Davis and Tatlock both agreed
that a movement to raise the moral
standard of examinations should orig-
inate with the students.
Barbour Gym Classes Convene Early.
Miss Catherine L. Bigelow, director
of the Barbour gymnasium, announces
that the women students' gym classes
will begin Monday, February 10.

of the room and the position of the
refreshment booth near the doorway
vention was made up of a few state,
foresters and their assistants, severalE
professors, railroad men, and the rep-
resentatives of some of the large lum-
bering interests throughout the state.
Prof. P. S. Lovejoy, representing the
university, showed the inefficiency of
the present state protection as com-
pared with the system now used ins
the Pacific Northwest.
13Before adjournin., the Conference
sent several resolutions to the gov-

or Ross to speak for the state of Mich-

man from Washington, D. C.
