The Patrician, by John Galsworthy;
828 G 1785 p.
The difficulty of following one's im-
pulses in matters of love, under exist-
ing social conventions, is the theme.
of Galsworthy's "The Patrician.". It
is not an unusual topic for this author,
as it is not a rare subject for anybody
who thinks primitively, revolution-
arily or advancedly. The difference in
this case is that the writer, despite
his occasionally unpalatable style,
seems to be sincere.
Stripped of interesting non-essen-
tials, the story says that an English
'nobleman loves an impossible woman,
and that, after a weak but admirable
struggle, he gives up nominally to the
opinion of the world, represented im-
mediately by the stand-still charac-
ters, his family. He doesn't want to
give up, though, and he takes a long
time to decide whether the giving up
is worth while. It is this that makes
the story, which is a delightful one.
To make the mooted point all the
more stimulating, the sister of that
patrician almost loves an undesirable
reformer. Under different conditions
she would have married him, but con-
ditions refuse to unshape themselves,
and she has not strength enough to
leave conventions behind her. So she
dloes the expected thing, and marries
an ordinary but touted aristocrat.
- Even if "The Patrician" is not es-
pecially profound, it is rousing in its
effect on the moral mind. Galsworthy
presents evidence on both sides and
does it in a way that is not objection-
ably argumentative. . An air of easy-
going modernness runs through the
whole story, and the reader is lured
by it even if he does notice that the
effect is brought about largely by giv-
ing fleeting glimpses of pertinent situ-
ations, after the fashion of a moving
picture scenario. The book stands out
as a strong one in the long list of
modern fiction.

PRM SIDFOR NEW DEGREE
Literary Department will llow 42
Hours of Chemistry Toward
Graduation In
Science
WORK FORMERLY DONE UNDER
ENGINEERING REQUIREMENTS
Elective Foundation Work May Now
Ie Done in More Liberal
Branches
According to a new ruling of the
literary department, students may
become candidates for a B.S.
degree by electing a new chem-
istry course containing 52 hours of
work. Under the old group system in
the literary department, whereby a
student could not take more than 40
hours of one subject, it was impossible
to secure a B.S. degree in chemistry,
without transferring to the engineer-
ing department. There it was neces-
sary to take such subjects as drawing,
shop, etc. The new course allows the
student to take such work as German,
rhetoric and similar courses as a
broad foundation for his technical
training.
Although the bulletin announcing
this new course did not appear until
late in the summer, more than 70 stu-
dents have already registered as can-
didates for a B.S. degree in chemistry.
"RUSSIAN NIGHT" PLANNED AS
FIRST COSMOPOLITAN SOIREE
Prof. C. L. Xeader Will Talk on
Russia in the Present European
Crisis
Russian night, the first of a series
of international nights to be .given
under the auspices of the Cosmpoli-
tan club, will be held Friday night,
October 9. Talks on Russia and musi-
cal selections of Russian origin will
comprise the program.
Prof. C. L. Meader will speak on
Russia in the present crisis. le will
give an account of the Russian pro-
gress in the last 100 years, and will
show the effect the war will have on
this progress. Professor Meader will
repudiate what is sometimes termed
the "Slavonic Peril." A. Moissif will
talk on the Russian people and what
the European conflict will do to help
them. Mr. Moissif believes that what-
ever the outcome of the war a new era
of freedom for the Russian peasant
class is dawning.
Albert Slusky, accompanied by Allan
D. Stanchfield, will render several se-
lections from Chopin. Another feature
of the musical program will be Miss
Nora C. Hunt, of the school of music,
who will sing Russian folk songs.
The place and time of the meeting
will be announced later.
MORE MEN THAN WOMEN SIGN
FOR'GRADUATE WORK THIS YEAR
Number in Department to Date is
Greater Than at Last
Registration
Contrary to custom, more men than
women are registered in the graduate
department. Out of a total of 206, but
57 are women. While the total enroll-
ment this year to date exceeds by 48
that of this time last year, it does not
equal the enrollment at the end. of
the first semester of the year 1913-
1914. Since graduate students come in
at all times during the semester, how-
ever, it is expected that last year's
record will be surpassed by February,
1915.
MICHIGAN MOVIES 'WILL BE

Damies and Nickles Plan to Stage
Uiversal Football Drama
Here
Daines and Nickles, State street
photographers, are members of a syn-
dicate Nvhich supplies 189 newspapers
with football pictures. Their service
shows views of various Michigan men
in action on the gridiron. It is their
plan to stage a football drama on the
order of "Strong Heart," which is to
be presented by the Universal Film
Company in all parts of the country.
Michigan football men are to take the,
parts in this play.
According to Mr. Daines the movies
of the Michigan initiation last spring
and other campus events will be shown
everywhere by the Gaumont Film
Company, of New York City. More
than 300 feet of football film have just
been sent to this company. Important
events during the college year will be
taken and the films shown throughout
the country.
Students Feel Effects of War
The Michigan Union employment
bureau has sent letters to all married
members of the faculty asking employ-
ment of any nature for students. The
demand for work is greater this year
than ever before and the bureau is
making every effort to supply it. Many,
students will be able to support them-
selves during the first semester but
may have to leave school at that time
if work cannot be secured.

COLUMBIA 'CLAIMS,

Graduate Students There Are Said to
Represent Largest Number of
Universities and
Colleges
*tARVARD AND MICHIGAN COME
SECOND AND THIRD IN ORDER
Former is
States;
Columbia Jniversity draws graduate
students from a larger number of col-
leges than any other university ac-
cording to figures given by The Colum-
bia Spectator. The 2,300 graduate stu-
dents registered in the departments of
law, medicine, and pure and political
sciences represent 160 colleges and
universities. Harvard's graduate de-
partments lay claim to a representa-
tion of 106 undergraduate schools and
the University of Michigan comes third
with 57.
Of the 474 men in the Columbia law
school 249 are residents of New York,
102 hail from New England, 55 from
the west, 40 from the east, exclusive
of New York State, and 26 from the
south. The school of niedicine, in
which 370 men are registered, has 217
representatives from the Empire state,
52 from New England, 39 from states
near New York, 32 from the south and
30 from the west.
The statement goes on to say that
on a percentage basis 90 per cent of
the men in te graduate schools at
Michigan come from west of the Mis-
sissippi and the remainder almost en-
tirely from New England. At Har-
vard the west seems almost entirely
unrepresented, the graduate schools
drawing men from New England and
Atlantic states. Graduate students
from the south are divided between
Columbia and Vanderbilt, the latter
claiming the majority.
Mathematics Club 'Will Organize Soon
Plans are now being formulated to
reorganize the Mathematics club with-
in the next two weeks. The purpose
of this club is to create interest in
mathematics outside the classroom,
and all students who have taken, or
are taking analytical geometry, are
eligible to membership.
War Has No Terrors for Auto Men
The European war and many post-
poned trips to Europe are said to be
responsible for the selling of more
automobiles in Ann Arbor recently
than at any foriner time.
