There is a 'hazy glamor about con- tributing to the relief of sufferers who are thousands of miles from home. The Belgians seem to deserve all that can be done for them, and the persons who aid in their relief are to be com- mended. Even if the little European nation is receiving help from Ameri- cans who would never think of assist- ing at home, the idea of healthy un- selfishness is present just the same, no matter if the inspiration is a bit too sensational and compelling to entitle the donors to unusual credit. But at the same time, the poor and needy in this country are as poor and needy as ever. In many cases they are equally as free from fault for their poverty as are the reluctant mem- bers of belligerent countries across the sea. Just now the problem is to provide clothing, fuel and food for in- digent families which are beginning the winter with insufficient means. Ann Arbor has its share of poor peo- ple, and an appeal is being made by a local organization looking toward help- ing these unfortunates. It should meet with serious responwe. Now it is that those of us who had gym work realize what heroic Spar- tans we really were. And' all this time the rhetoric de- partment struggles on with nary a single petition. This is the Week of the Thousands of pieces of smoke- damaged holiday goods are mark- ed to be cleared in double quick time. Plays of the first order are announc- ed by the Whitney theater manage- ment, as attractions at the local the- ater during the month of January.

Lucas and Field, society singers who sang sassy songs featured an average Majestic program last night. Two ne- gro singers and dancers, Dodson and Gordon, also did well. The acrobatic work of a well developed woman con- celuded the program. As in past years, the annual Y. W. C. A.
