RE.
AND

Although its primary function is to
serve the faculty and students of the
university, the university library in-
cludes in its field of service all of
Michigan. In the words of its bulletin,
"it serves as a reference library for
the people of the entire state, in the
sense that its resources are placed at
the service of those citizens who de-
sire to carry on research work, those
who are engaged in the learned pro-
fessions, or those who are seeking
special information which cannot be
obtained from local libraries."
To the limit of its facilities the ad-
ministration of the library is attempt-
ing to place the possible service of
the university library at the command
of the people of the state as well as
the people of Ann Arbor. Those in
charge of the bibliographical depart-
ment answer questions relating to
books in the library and gladly fur-
nish such aid as they can. Special

opened by the Victorian Trio in "Pop-
ular Selections" which have very little
music. Hally and Nobel, in a comedy
novelty, "She Fell for Him," have
some humor but little 'music. Cadets
ade Gascogne, operatic and ballad sing-
ers, present three good classical se-
lections which are well renderer.
Smith, Cook and Branden in "The Mil-
lionaires," feature some excellent toe-
dancing. Joe Fanton's "Awakening
Athletes" do thrilling "stunts" on the
rings.

"Nine o'clocks" will begin at mid-
night next week.
"How absurd!" you say.
No, it is not at all absurd. When
you go to your "nine o'clocks" Mon-
day morning, ,one of the clocks at the
observatory will register a few min-
utes past midnight Tuesday morning.
And those in charge are not crazy,
either.. It is just the way they figure
time.
About everybody you meet thinks
that standard time is determined by
observing the relative position of the
earth and the sun. This is what we
were all taught to believe. One day
not long ago, Mr. Paul Merrill, assist-
ant at the observatory, enlightened a
Daily reporter on this matter.
Standard time is not determined by
direct observation of the sun. Not

even "sun" time is determined that
way. What the astronomers really get
by means of their telescopes is known
as siderial time, since it is determined
by the position of the stars. Observa-
tion of the sun is neither so conveni-
ent nor so accurate. "Sun" time and
standard time are both figured out
from this by a series of mathematical
calculations. Only one day in the
year do solar time and "star" time
coincide-March 21. The siderial year
is one day longer than the solar year.
The actual length of time, however,
is exactly equal, since the siderial or
"star" day is four minutes shorter
than the solar day.
So now, if you fall asleep in your
"nine oclocks," tell your professors
that midnight is the time for sleep.
not for recitations.

Discuss Opening of Credit ReIations
With London Banks
New York, Nov. 4.-Men prominent
in the financial world met at the Na-
tional City bank. here yesterday to
discuss questions relative to the for-
eign credit situation. The main .pur-
pose of the meeting was to determine
upon the establishment of credits with
London joint stock banks and other
British institutions
After the close of the meeting one
of the bankers who attended said that
the entire situation was discussed in
a general fashion and that it was
probable that loans to London banks,
possibly directly from New York in-
stitutions, would now be made.

ClASSiCAL CLUB-
Drawings of bombs and cannons,
many of them of the type used in the
present European war, are to be found
in a ifteenth century mianuscript in
the Voynich collection, which has been
On display in Memorial hall this week.
The illustratiuons sho the various mil-
itary devices of th time, one of espe-
cial interest being the water clock
used in the Roman camps to mark the
time when the sun had set.
"I have searched thirty years for
this water clock," said Professor Kel-
sey at a meeting o'f the Classical club
last night, "and now that I liave found
it I am having a stereopticon plate
made of it, and olier drawings for
use in te universily."
Mr. Voynich also spoke informally
to the club, dwelling at length on the
famous Grotto manuscript, the water-
color sketches of hich were probably
designs for fir. coes.

arrangements are made to defray the
cost of exhaustive work on topics re-
quiring a great deal of research.
Special aid from the university li-
brary is obtainable for schools and li-
braries in connection with public de-
bates. The university library realizes
that the state library at Lansing is
better equipped to give aid to wo-
men's clubs with reference to their
programs than it is. The university
library is prepared to make loans to
state libraries and individuals, as well
as organizations, of books not readily
obtainable elsewhere.

EXCELLENT PRO6RM IS
PRESENTEDAT CONCERT
ART ISTS GIVE ABLE RlEPRESEN-
iTA TION OF SCHUBERT'S D MINOR
QUARTET AT FACULTY CONCERT
Faultless technique, combined with
rare ability in musical interpretation,
1 were demonstrated by the quartet of
artists who played the Schubert P
minor quartet yesterday afternoon in
Hill auditorium. Each movement was
delightful, perhaps most of all the
Presto, while the Allegro movement of
the introduction offered the artists the
bst opport-unity to demonstrate their
Lcchnical si~l and polish in ensemble
,laying. '!The variety of the themes
aid the subtlety of their recurrence
in a new and varied form makes the
Andante movement a chef d'oeuvre in
the field of compositions for the string
q'"a"tet. Infinite happiness plays in
he harmony as well as in the rhythm
of the Presto movement. That is prob-
ably the reason that this is the favor-
ite with most audiences. The artists
yesterday were quite successful in
their interpretation of this latent ele-
inent of the part, and the audience was
ot slow to appreciate.
With his song program Mr. Wester-
nan 'captivated his audience with the
;irst number of the Schubert trio
group. rUngeduld," by reason of its
vionderful passion, most moved the lis-
teners. His most pleasing selection,
howoer was Liddle's "Open Thy Win-
dow," exactly suited to his voice. Mr.
Westerman gave a delightful interpre-
tation to this exquisite song.
Miss llamilton accompanied Mr.
Westerman with her usual sympathy
for the mood of the singer.
'almet Miners Receive Third Bonus
Calumet, Mich., Nov. 4.--Employees

Decrease in Grain and Flour Receipts
Chicago, Nov. 4.-Total grain re-

creases of receipts as compared with
