WITH POOR I1WMIGRA:NTS TO
AMERICA.
By Stephen Graham (365.73G74)
America from then point of view of
a Russian immigrant is the theme of
this book. The journey from Liver-
pool, where the author joined a party
of Russian immigrants to New York,
and from New York to Chicago, is
vividly described. The lure of the
word "America" and the struggles and
hardships of the poor people who come
over is told in a style that is appeal-
ing and attractive.
The dialogue that runs throughout
is especially well done and. gives a
pleasing aspect to the sometimes dole-
ful story. The author has given a most
delightful account of his experiences
and how it feels to be suddenly placed
in one of the most forward countries
in the world from one of the most
back~ward.

lyn, N. Y., will give the next address

UNIVERSITY BULLETIN SHOWS
ENL ARGED EXTENSION SERVICE
That the scope of the university ex-
tensionkservice has been greatly en-
larged, is shown by the new 1914-15
bulletin recently issued by that de-
partment. The bulletin deals with the
various divisions of the extedsion ser-
vice, including the university exten-
sion service department, library ex-
tension, department of education and
public service.

The following. appeared in the Penn-
sylvanian, under the head "Sportsman-
like Michigan," following the Penn
game at Ann Arbor:
"The sting was taken from Satur-
day's defeat by the conduct of the
rooters for the Maize and Blue. The
Michigan supporters treated the Penn-
sylvania team and the special train
contingent in a manner which insures
a continuance of friendship between
the two universities.
"Pennsylvania men who witnessed
the game will long remember the
che'ers which Michigan gave the Uni-
versity and the Red and Blue players.
The home cheer leaders refrained
from cheering when yells would have
interfered with the 'Varsity quarter-
back's signals, and at no time were
there evidences of anything but the
best of feeling. That is as true of the
time when Pennsylvania was ahead
as when Michigan had begun to pile
up the big total.
"Any college might well take a leaf
from Michigan's book and learn from
her how a sportsmanlike following
backs its team."
Alpha Omega Alpha, medical schol-
arship fraternity, has granted a char-
ter and will organize a chapter at the
college of medicine of the University
of Nebraska. Alpha Omega Alpha
was organized at the University of Illi-
nois in 1902, and now has eighteen
chapters.

Karl Eugen Guthe was born at 1
Hanover, Germany, on March 5, 1866,1
and his entire boyhood was spent in1
that country. He received his prep-
aratory work at the gymnasium and
technical school of his native city, in
accordance with the general plan of
education followed out in Germany.
Upon his graduation, he pursued uni-
versity studies in Marburg, Strass-
burg, and Berlin, and in 1889 he pass-

He spent the next four years in doing
graduate work, and in 1892 he re-

burg.
He came to the United States the
same year, and in 1893, came to the
University of Michigan, having ac-

ment until 1905 when he was invited
by the University of Iowa to fill the
chair of professor of physics in that
institution. He accepted that posi-
tion, remaining there until 1909. In
1909 he returned to the University of
Michigan as professor of. physics,
and it is in that capacity that he Is
connected with the university at the
present time.
In 1912 he was invited by the Board,
of Regents to assume the position of
dean of the graduatepdepartment
which position he accepted. Since
Dean Guthe's elevation to this posi-
tion, he has introduced a number of
changes which have done much to
raise the standard of this'department.

American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science, and a member
of the American Physical Society, the

Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft,
the Philosophy Society of Washing-
ton, the Washington Academy of

tions of terms used in physics. He is

tific journals, his researches being
