early experiences in Ireland to the lastI
fifteen years, which are stated brieflyM
in one chapter. What makes this book
especially interesting is the different
characterizations of the men whose
friendships he formed while at Knox
College and who after graduation}
founded McClure's Magazine. These
men are John S. Phillips, editor of the
American Magazine, Robert Mather
and Albert Brady, who was business
manager of McClure's Magazine.
The style is pleasing and written in
a manner that is particularly attrac-
tive. To all newspaper men and those

interested in magazine work the var-
ious vicissitudes of the editor will be
entertaining and well worth while.

prised by the work of Barrett in the
Cornell game. Barrett hoisted two of
the longest punts seen on Ferry field
this season. These and Splawn's long
kicks were punts, and yet,, by deli ing
into the archives, of football, one finds
that men have, in days gone by, drop-
kicked almost as far as 'thesemen
-were punting.
Pat O'Dea of Wisconsin scored
agains Northwestern once by drop-
kicking a goal from the 63-yard line.
O'Dea was a certan scorer within the
50-yard stripe, and not infrequently
directed a long hoist between the up-
rights from- farther back than this.
Haxall of Princeton in 1882, scored
against Yale by a drop kek from the
65-yard line. The ball was fifteen
yards from the center of the field at
the time, which not only made the kick
a trifle longer, but gave a narrower
mark to shoot at, due to the angle..
Dave Allerdice is one of the greatest
kickers Michigan has had in recent
years. Dave actually used to practice
from the 40-yard line for form, if we
are to believe the accounts. At any
rate his place kicking was exception-
ally high class.
ARCHITECTS RECEIVE MODEL
OF NEW S. S. KRESGE BUILDING
In itself the most important gift yet
received by the department of archi-
tecture, a plaster model of the new
Kresge building has just been pre-
sented to the university by the S. S.
Kresge company of Detroit. The
structure of which this is a model, is
18 stories high, and stands on Adams
avenue west, Detroit. The model is
about four feet high, and is made on
a scale of one quarter inch to the
foot. It was made by Siebert & Com-
pany, and is valued at $500. The
building was designed by Albert Kahn
and Ernest Wilby, of Detroit.

ORGANIZE YEARLY EXREDITIONS
Few people on the campus realize
the enormous amount, and the great
number of activities carried on by
Michigan's museum and its staff of
experts. The general public and the
average student regard the museum
as a demonstration exhibit of extinct
animals and a repository for freaks
and curios, when as a matter of fact
it is but a series of laboratories, where
the problems of natural history are
studied, the materials being large ser-
ies of specimens accumulated and pre-
served by trained investigators. The
majority of the collections are stored
in closed cases and are available only
to advanced students and persons en-
gaged in research. A modern mus-
eum, such as Michigan's is the library
of they geological and zoological 9tu-
dent.
The museum activities consist of
routine work, scientific investigations,
explorations, and extension work.
Each year, more than 20,000 specimens
are prepared, preserved, labeled and
catalogued. Many of them must first
be identified, and certain groups re-
ceive special study from the members
of the staff. The results of the stud-
ies are published in scientific jour-
nals, from 10 to 20 papers being print-
ed each year. *The museum has its
own serial publication: "Occasional
Papers of the Museum of Zoology,
University of Michigan."
As the specimens are to be used for
study purposes, 'it is necessary that
they be collected with care. This
necessitates expeditions, and each
year, parties are sent to some region,
from which information and speci-
mens are desired. Some of the more
recent expeditions are: The Univer-
sity of Michigan Walker Expedition to
Mexico, the Walker Newcomb Expedi-
tion to Nevada, the Shiras Expeditions
to Whitefish Point, the Bryant Walk-
er Expedition to Columbia, the Univer-
sity of Michigan Newcomb Expedition
to the Davis Mountains, Texas, the
University of Michigan Walker Expe-
dition to British Guiana and the Mer-
shon Expeditions to the Charity Is-
/lands. These expeditions have been
made possible by several men who
have borne a great part of the ex-
penses of the explorations.
In addition to the routine and scien-
tific work, the museum attempts to aid
the residents and schools of the state
by identifying specimens, supplying
information in regard to animals, and
by the loan, of collections. While only
a few loan collections have been as-f
sembled so far, others are being form-
ulated as rapidly as possible, so that,
the museum will soon be able to meetI
the demands of all the schools. {
