Druids, senior lit honorary society,

itiation the newly-elected members
were banqueted at the Union.
The initiates are as follows: H. M.

"Compulsory Military Training" will
be the subject open for general discus-
sion at the first Forum of the year
to be held at the Union at 7:30 o'clock
tomorrow night. Harry D. Parker, '16L,
will have charge of the meetings this
year, and plans to have all the import-
ant camp-us questions discussed during
the year's programs,
The Forum will last but for one hour
and any student on the campus can
express his ideas on the question be-
fore the Forum. Informality will be
the keynote of the meetings.
The idea of a Forum was inaugu-
rated by the Michigan Union last year,
because there was no plae in student
affairs where vital and pressing cam~-
pus problems could be discused.
It is planned to hold a meeting of
the Forum every week until spring
vacation. Speeches will be limited so
as to allow all those present who de-
sire to speak ample opportunity to give
their opinions on the problems.
SENIORS DEMAND TO HAVE
PHOTOS TAKEN FOR YEAR BOOK
List of Michiganensian Photographers
Posted at Various Points
on Campus
Posters have been placed upon the
various bulletin boards about the cam-
pus announcing the names of the pho-
tographers authorized by the Michi-
ganensian board to take the pictures
of members of the senior class. In
designating the official photographers
as early in the year as they have, the
management of the Michiganensian is
catering to the demand of the seniors
to have their pictures made in time
for use as gifts at Christmas, and also
to aid the students in avoiding the ne-
cessity of sitting for their portraits
during the rush of work in the month
of January.
The editorial staff is desirous of se-
curing snapshots of student life and
activities, and as many personal pic-
ttures as can be obtained will be run
in the publication this year Photos
of men and women prominent about
the campus are especially desired.
Believing that the women of the uni-
versity have not been represented in
the year book as they should be, the
management of the annual this year is
willing to devote more space than ever
before to stories and pictures of inter-
est to the student body in general and
to the women in particular. It re-
quests only that the women of the
university supply the necessary infor-
mation by means of communications
or personally to the members of the

staff.

NEW YORK'S MAYOR SURViVES

500DRESH ITS "ATTNO
FIRST REGULAR SSEMBLY
Dean Efnluger Gives Words of Advice
to First Yeaar Literary Class
at Meeting
"Don't try to invent a new tradition.
Remember that there were others here
before you," was the advice by Dean
J. R. Etinger to nearly 500 members
of the freshmen literary class as-
sembled together yesterday afternoon
in the new science hcildi Jg audi-
torium.
"You are coming into a settled com-
munity when you come to Ann Arbor,
and the same rules of the world that
you knew at home apply here. There
are, of course, some special things in
the college code; for instance, don't
show too much familiarity with the
members of the faculty, by sitting on
the table or desk while addressing
them. Remember that you are in a
college world."
Yesterday's meeting marked the oc-
basion of the first assembly this year
of the 1919 literary class, and from
the unusually large attendance it
looks as if the assembly plan would
meet with favor this year. Both Dr.
J. F. Scott, who has charge of the
assemblies, and Dean Effinger were
enthusiastic at the size of yesterday's
gathering and the interest shown in
the assembly plan. A second assembly
will be held sometime in December, at
which time another speaker, probably
a member of the faculty, will talk to
the first year men and women.
Dean Effinger yesterday emphasized
the developihent of Michigan spirit
and said that it was accomplished
through deparmental rivalry. Michi-
gan spirit, in its true sense, he said,
means the observance of campus am
university traditions. Class loyalty
was, he declared, an indication of loy-
alty to the university and he urged
the class to turn out at the class as-
semblies and meetings.

WHAT'S GOING ON

!

States will have a secret service to
match that of any European nation
within the next twelve months.
The need of such a branch of gov-
ernment, in whose service would be
included men in all walks of life, ac-I
tually engaged in business or the
professions or trades, as is the cus-
tom in Europe, was made obvious by
the activities of the Teutonic agents
here who are said to number 3,000:
To make possible the creation of
such a secret service congress will be:
asked to appropriate a sum reachingr
into the millions.

Out of 15 instructors and professors
approached in the chemistry depart-
ment thus far, 13 have signed up for
life memberships. The system of can-
vassing has been organized on such a
basis that those in charge feel certain
'that the best results will be obtained.
Plans are now in order to make a
"round-up" in the local campaign,
which is under the supervision of D.
R. Ballentine, '16. A canvass of the
town was made several-wveeks ago,
but the committees feel that another
campaign will be well worth their
while.
