Sophonisba Breckenridge Speaks
New Profession at Final
Women's Vocational
Session
of
TODAY
ABBY MARLATT DECLARES HOME E
ECONOMICS ESSENTIAL STUDY
Luncheon Brings Conferenco to Close;
Leaders Hope to Duplicate
Gathering
"Effective social service involves a
knowledge of the new social relation-
ships and the exercise of new forms of
hospitality and kindness, which may
be less glowing and satisfactory than
the old kinds, but which are now rec-
ognized as essential. Social service is
a definite and new kind of profession,
with a definite and new kind of tech-
nique." This was the thought devel-
oped in the talk on social service giv-
en by Sophonisba Breckenridge, dean
of the Chicago School of Civics and
Philanthropy, at the final session of
the Vocational conference yesterday
morning., Miss Breckenridge outlined
methods in the theory and practice of
social service pursued in the institu-
tion she represents.
Abby Marlatt, director of the home
economics department of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, said, in speaking on
the opportunities in this field open to
college women, that the economy of
the home is a thing fundamental in
the life of the nation, and a problem
that must be recognized and met in
the new ideal of collegiate education
for women. Miss Marlatt explained
the openings in the fields of business
administration, and the professions for
which the knowledge of home econom-
ics is essential.
Miss Maude Kelsey, national field
secretary of the Student Volunter band
of the Y. W. C. A., spoke on the new
scope of the Y. W. C. A. activity in the
work of social service, and outlined
the opportunities there. Catherine
Reighard, '15, president of the Wom-1
en's League, presided at this meeting.
She expressed hopes that other confer-
ences of a like nature will follow in'the
future.
Brief talks by Dr. Elsie S. Pratt,]
Mrs. Max Winkler, Dean John R. Effin-
ger, Judith Ginsburg, '15, Miss Mar-.
latt, and Miss Kelsey characterized the
luncheon, given yesterday morning for
speakers, guests and university wom-
en, which closed the conference.
The national civil service comnis-
sion, though unable to send a speaker,7
has forwarded literature on work in
that field, which will be placed, with
the material on. other vocations and
catalognus of vocational training in-
stitutions now in the possession-of the
titeague, in a permanent vocational li-1
brary in Barbour gymnasium.

to Secure Scenery of Original

efforts of the management in this di-
rection are successful, according to

of production will be made. until there
are further developments.

pleted with Sanger and Jordan Com-
pany, of New York, to lease, the scen-
ery used by the original "Pomander

MEMBERS TO SLEEP ELSEWHERE
Fire, probably started by a defective
chimney, broke out in the third floor
of the Delta Chi fraternity house, 733
South State street at 2:00 o'clock yes-
terday afternoon, causing a loss of
nearly $2,000.
Practically the whole third story was.
destroyed by the flames, and the great-
er part of the furnishings and decora-
tions on the second floor was seriously
damaged by water. The fire was dis-
covered by a pedestrian. The flames
had gained rapid headway, and it was
only through the swift work of the
students in the house at the time that
the whole building was saved from de-
struction.
As the dormitory of the house Is in
the section affected by the fire, men
living in the building were compelled
last night to take refuge in neighbor-
ing rooming houses and fraternities.
It is expected that the work on repair-
ing and remodeling the upper floors.
will begin early next week.

dances, and probably the same orches-
tras as were employed in former years,
will be retained.
The committee will also decide on
the engraving company which will do
the work on the programs. The privi-
lege of taking the flashlight of the
block "M" will be granted to one of
the local photographers, who has also
offered to provide souvenir booklets
for the guests.

1910 FOOTBALL SQUAD LOSES
SERVICES OF STAR HALFBACK
Martin Galt Leaves College. to Enter
Business at Portland, But
May Return
"Mart" Galt, star half on the 1913
Varsity, has left the university to enter
business in Portland, Oregon, and,
while there is a bare possibility of his
return in time to play next fall, it is
more than probable that the 1915
eleven will lose the services of the
veteran half. According to members
of his family, however, there is no pos-
sibility of his return to Michigan.
Galt's loss will be keenly .felt this
fall, for the Ann Arbor veteran was a
star of whom much wes expected in
1915. After starring on the 1913 Var-
sity, Galt was expected to be the main-
stay of the team last fall. Injuries
kept him out of every game, however,
but it was hoped that he would be in
shape to come back in the coming sea-
son.

unity. He has lectured on this sub-
ject, both in America and in Europe.

cago because of his wide interest in
civic affairs.
'MEET TO HEIGHTEN
TRACK ENTHUSiASM
Past and Present Stars Will Address
Big Athletic Gathering
Tuesday '
REAL GRIND BEGIN, TOMORROW
With track work well under way,
a meeting has been planned for 7:15E
o'clock Tuesday night in the lecture
room of the physics building, for the
purpose of arousing more enthusiasm
among the men, and to bring o.ut a
larger number of candidates. Track
Manager W. B. Palmer will preside.
Realizing that the turnout.for track
work at' Michigan is far below what
it is proportionately in other schools,
the meeting has been arranged to
arouse, greater interest among those
now out and any new men that may
be present. Coach Farrell and Cap-
tain Smith will speak for those active-
ly engaged in track work. "Hap" Haff
has also been placed on the program
and "Chink" Bond, last year's inter-
collegiate 100-yard champion, has
promised to come out from Detroit to
address the gathering. Athletic Di-
rector Bartelme, and Intramural Di-
rector Rowe will also speak.f
Beginning Monday, the fastest times
and best records made in the different
events in the gym will be posted, so
that the men can see exactly where1
they stand. This plan was followed
out last year with considerable suc-
cess, and is to be repeated.
According to present plans, Coach7
Farrell has announced that the real
grind would commence tomorrow.
This past week has served as more or
less of a limbering up period, follow-1
ing the rest during the holidays.
Although the track schedule has not
been announced as yet, both indoora
and outdoor dates will be made pub-E
lic within a few days. More than 500
letters were mailed yesterday to track
men in college who are expected to
turn out at Tuesday's meeting. Captain1
Smith has stated however, that anyone I
interested will be welcome.1
