T SYSTEM TO TEACH
IOENTS ABOUT PLANTS

it Gives Opportunity
Practical Methods
Cultivation

to
of

Learn

Professor H. A. Gleason of the bot-
any department has started a system
to make it possible for many students
to learn practical methods of cultivat-
ing and propagating plants.
Students who have passed or are
registered in courses 7 or 8 in botany
will be given employment in the Bo-
tanical garden, under the supervision
of the head gardner. They will have
actual experience in planting, potting,
transplanting, propagating, and the
general care of plants, both in the
green house and in the garden, and
with ornamental plants, vegetables and
shrubs. Students will be required to:
devote whole half-days to the work.
For this work students will be paid
during the first semester of their em-
ployment, which will be regarded as
a period of apprenticeship, 15
"cents per hour; duringethe second se-
mester, 25 cents, and thereafter
25 cents per hour. The work
will be extended to men and women
on equal terms. Preference will be
given to students at present register-:
ed in the botany department.
During the past year, many students
have indicated their desire to learn
practical methods of treating plants:
as the experience will prepare stu-
dents for conducting school gardens,
which are now an important feature
of school: work 'in many ,places. it'
was not thought advistable by the de-
partment to offer" this work in a
regular course for university credit.
Aigler Calls Ford Vote a Joke
Prof. Ralph W. Aigler of the Law
school, in a communication in the In-
dependent for June 5, repudiates the
idea that the Michigan vote in the
presidential primary for Henry Ford
was regarded seriously. Professor
Aigler asserts that there were but
three candidates upon the ballot: Mr.
Ford, Senator Smith and a Mr. imp-
son, and that men'nvoted for Ford be-
cause he was not a candidate and re-
fused to vote for Mr. Smith because
he was an active candidate.
Professor Aigler also adds that the
Michigan vote might well be taken as
evidence of the value of presidential
primaries.
NOTICE.
At its next meeting, the Board In
Control of Student Publications will
choose business managers for The
Michiganensian and The Inlander, re-
spectively. It is the policy of the
board in filling the positions on the
publications under its control to
award them on the basis of merit to
those who have served in minor posi-
tions on the publications to which the
positions pertain.,
It sometimes happens, however, that
no one who has served on the publica-
tion during the year is eligible or ca-
pable of filling one of the leading po-
sitions for the ensuing year. When
either of these sets of circumstances
arises the board finds it necessary to
consider outside candidates. This no-
tice should not be considered as an
intimation that either of the situa-
tions will arise this year.
All applications for these positions
should be in the hands of Professor
F. N. Scott as soon as possible and not
later than June 7th in order to be con-
sidered. Each application should con-
tain a statement of the experience of
the applicant and should be accom-
panied by the applicant's eligibility
card and any letters of recommenda-
tion which he may have.
BOARD IN CONTROL OF
STUDENT PUBLICATIONS.
INVESTIGATE THIS
If a general statement were requir-
ed we would say that fifty-one years'

observation of the practical working
out of life insurance convinces.us that
the policy which covers the most needs
in the largest number of cases, and
covers them to the greatest satisfac-
tion of the insured, is a policy which
protects the whole period of the insur-
ed's expected active career, and then
becomes payable to him for its face
value in cash should he survive that
period.
Nothing is of greater importance to
the student than "starting right," and
this is especially true of life insurance,
which is now recognized as one of the
most important economic factors of
modern society. It enables the
thoughtful and ambitious student to
begin his career with the guarantee
that even at the outset his premature
death will not cause a loss to those
who have backed him.

dents. Harry' Bacher, 516 E. Madison

THE fact that we are going to remodel our store is an important
event to you men and young men who like smart things to

wear.

It is simply an evidence of the way we are making this

a better business. Remodeling the store is one part of making it
better; another part is to cultivate in our own minds, and in the
minds of our employees, the idea that we shall prosper most when
we serve your interests most.

we serve.

When we sell such

goods, we are doing the best that we can for you in clothes.

The

other goods are of the same high class; they are worth every cent of
the price we ask for them.

It's cheaper for us to take something off the prices and give it to
our customers, than to allow it for carrying and damage to goods.
We will have some prices that you'll like. The qualities of the
goods are just the same as ever.
