ON HAS UNIQUE DECORATION
ain Sealby Introduces Innovation
by Giving Canoe and Paddles.
,ptain Inman Sealby, before leav-
the university, introduced some-
g new in the way of decorations
ie Michigan Union. With the idea
.ind that the Union could use such
rations and possessions as the av-
e student owns, Captain Sealby
ented the Union with a canoe and
les. His gift has been placed
he dance hall.
iother innovation in Union decora-
s started by Captain Sealby, is
wooden panels which bear the
es of Union presidekts since '04.
e panels have been fastened to
cross beams of the new addition.

FIRE PROTECTION
NOW ESTABUISHED
Board of Regents Purchase High'
Pressure Pumps and Install
Huge Mains.
ZOWSKI DESIGNS NEW PUMP.

Al SI

Adequate fire protection for all cam-
pus buildings is now an assured fact,,
due to action taken by the Board of
Regents at their last summer meeting.
Two high pressure centrifugal
pumps, which are now, being built by
the Manistee Iron Works Co., of Man-
istee, Mich., will be installed in the
hydraulic laboratory within the next
week or two. Each pump will deliver,
1,250 gallons per minute against a'
pressure of. 125 pounds into a 12-inch
main, which has been laid around the
entire campus this summer, in such
a manner that every building is safe-
guarded from every angle.
The pumps will be used in the hy-
draulic laboratory for laboratory pur-
poses, and they are arranged in such
a way that they can be operated in
series, thus giving 250 pounds avail-
able for experimental uses. This will
enable the hydraulic department to
use some of the laboratory machinery
for the first time at their full capacity
and pressure. Especially the hydro-
electric plant which is driven by the
Doble Impulse wheel will now be
available for tests under normal con-
ditoins.
The Manistee Iron Works Company
are also building an experimental cen-
trifugal pump designed by Prof. S. J.
Zowski, of the mechanical engineering
department. Prof. Zowski proposes to
do some research in the centrifugal
pump line with his invention in the
near future.
A torsion dynometer is also being
built, which will allow one to deter-
mine precisely the power of centrifu-
gal pumps and other high speed turbal
machines.
REAL CHINESE LANTERNS TO
HANG IN UNION BALL ROOM
At the close of the Chinese conven-
tion which was held in this city during
the first week of September, the dele-
gates presented the Michigan Union
with seventy genuine Chinese lanterns.
The lanterns are of peculiar design,
and each one is distinctive in its elab-
drate pattern. They will be hung
over the lights in the dance hall.
UNION LIFE MEMBERSHIP
ROLL SECURES FIRST '16 MAN.
"By the time you graduate, you'll be
a life member of the Union," said Ho-
mer Heath, the manager, as he signed
the card which made Richard L.
Thorsch, '16, of Chicago, a participat-
ing life member of the Michigan Un-
ion. Thorsch has he honor to be the'
first freshman to take out one of
these "installment plan" life member-
ships.

GLEE AND MANDOLIN CLUB
PROSPECTS ARE EXCELLENT
Leaders Simmons and Lattimer Are
Optimistic Over Material.
Try-Outs Held Soon.
"Never before have prospects for the
University Mandolin club been so
bright, and never before has there
been such an abundance of material
in sight at so early a date," says leader
Lattimer of the University Mandolin
Club. He emphasizes, however, that
there is a good chance for anyone who
has ability on the mandolin, guitar, or
mando-cello. He says, "We are es-
pecially in need of some good mando-
cellos."
Leader Simmons of the Glee Club
is also optimistic, and states that he is
looknig for one of the best glee clubs
the university ever produced. The
try-outs for both organizations will be
held some time during the next three
weeks.

SMALL SCALE DOMESTIC
SCIENCE COURSE OFFERED.
A slight step toward the establish-
ment of a domestic science course at
Michigan has been made with the an-
nouncement that Chemistry 12, chem-
istry of the household, will be given
this year, for the especial benefit of
the women.
Chemistry 12 is a three hour course
and must be preceded by course 2 in
that department. The course deals
primarily with simple tests for the
purity of household articles and chem-
ical changes that occur in the process
of baking and cooking. The course
will be given by Dr. Hubbard.
Prof. Whitney Will Address Teachers.
Prof. A. S. Whitney of the education
department leaves today for Iron
Mountain, Michigan, where he will de-
liver two addresses before the Upper
Peninsular Teachers' Association.

GARGOYLE WILL
HAVE NEW HEAD
Alleged Humor Magazine Gives Much
Promise of An Interesting
Year.
SEVERAL NEW MEN ARE NEEDED.
The Gargoyle, pseudo-hurorous pub-
lication which comes out a week late
when it is on time, is showing signs
of life, though it nearly suffocated last
summer when the Honorable the Board
in Control of Student Publication sad-
dled it with an engineer, one Harold
G. McGee as mana'ging editor. If the
magazine succeeds in getting a car-
toonist, a humoresque, and several
cubs to empty the waste basket it
promises to make this the best and
most successful year it has ever suffer-
ed.
The first issue is to be dedicated to
the freshmen, 'andisddue to appear
at four o'clock on Friday of the third
week of October of the year of our
Lord, 1912. The editor is planning
to leave for the far east at 3:33 that
afternoon; but a special representa-
tive of The Daily will be on hand to
lay his right fin upon the shoulder of
the aforesaid editor and say in a quiet
but firm voice, "Just a minute; you
are the man I want to see." He will
then learn all the sordid details of the
late editor's crime, which details will
be published exclusively by this paper,
and then turn him over to the proper
authorities.
For this year, The Gargoyle will be
housed in the front parlor of the Daily
offices. On condition that he steal
none of the valuable and unique jokes
which are stacked like cordwood in
the Gargoyle office, the managing edi-
tor of The Daily has been permitted
to place himself and his desk -in one
corner of said office. If any dribblings
of wisdom find their way into The
Gargoyle this year they will undoubt-
edly be drippings from said managing
editor's desk.
As the Poor Food laws do not apply
to feasts for the mind, readers of this
paper are hereby warned against any
and allunlabeled humor and alleged
wit appearing in the too-often-already-
mentioned publication. Subscriptions
are taken for the sheet at seventy-five
cents per; but, as its other subscriber
died from pernicious punitis, a repeti-
tion of this experiment can hardly be
recommended.
Dr. Robbins of Chicago Comes Here.
Dr. Frank E. Robbins, who his been
an assistant in the University of Chica-
go for the past few years, is now in-
structor in the greek department and
will take charge of the course in an-
cient Athenian life.
Prof. D'Ooge is on a European Tour.
Prof. Martin L. D'Ooge, who resign-
ed as head of the greek department
last year, is now in Spain. He will
remain abroad for the greater part
of the coming year, spending most of
his time touring southern Europe.
