Those who attend parties nowadays do so, apparently, because they really like this form of sociability. What is more important, they do not emphasize the absurdities in dancing to anywhere near that extent which called forth se- rious objection several years ago. Dancing has gone through a process of rationalization, and locally it now stands in something like its proper as- pect. In the meantime, the world goes on whirling through new steps, and plac- ing a ludicrous stress upon the types of dancing. And in smaller colleges and western colleges, there is still more or less of a mad scramble to beat one's neighbor to the acquisition of a uniquely-named step, without much regard to the grace of pleasure of the performance. Evidently Ann Arbor has had its fill of the naughtiness of the dance; it is now enjoying the mod- ern steps more for what they are, than for their ill-scented history. manipulation of the laws of bolts. Rag picking is becoming a substan- tial profession. The Kermess girls must have had cold feet. But don't miss the Kermess miss, mister. At the Majestic. Some good songs make the musical comedy, "This is the Life," rank with the average show which has -appeared at the Majestic this year. Two songs "We Take Our Hats Off to You, Mr. Wilson" and "Dancing Mad" are the features, and retrieve what would oth- erwise be a mediocre play. ,.-' The regular weekly party of the Women's League in Barbour gymnasi um at 4:00 o'clock this afternoon, will take the form of a "The Dansant." There will also be some exhibition dancing.

Just as in the Spanish-American War, "A Hot Time in the Old Town" became the favorite song of the American soldiers, in the European war, a popular ditty has become the favorite war song of the soldiers of the Allies. "IT'S A LONG, LONG WAY TO TIPPERARY" has sprung into world- wide popularity. It is whistled, sung and played everywhere. We also have "Tipperary" on the Victor Record, both as a song and a band number.

Cheer up, Charley, old horse. The bunch knows you're all right, and, you know, even "Maullie" has his troubles! One prof suggests that if cigarettes were made one-eighth of an inch shorter, more classes might be able to begin on time. Among those who will be sorry to see the students go, the regrets of the campus squirrels will perhaps be most sincere. One keen observer notices that por- tions at Union membership dinners vary inversely in size with the num- ber present. Why not a petition favoring the dis- patch of all the blue-books to the far- away, distressed Belgians? The "I-saw-a-robin-yesterday" cho- rus will soon be getting in its deadly conversation.
