REFORM ADVOCATES TO
CONENE IN PITTSBURS
Rev. L. A. Barrett Preaches Sermon
On "Christian Citizenship"
Sunday, Dec. 5
Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 26.-A
national convention, carried from
a common center to Ann Arbor, and
thence to the uttermost parts of Am-
erica by simultaneous services, is an
innovation in scientific organization
original with the National Reform
association, which opens its fifty-third
annual convention in Pitt.burg, Pa.,
on December 5.
Christian citizenship is the keynote
of all the work of the National Reform
association and to carry the message
of the convention to those who cannot
attend at Pittsburgh, all of the most
distinguished clergymen of America
have been invited to present Christian
citizenship t9 their congregations on
December 5th, as an integral part of
the great national movement.
The Rev. Leonard A. Barrett, of Ann
Arbor, has been asked to preach a
special sermon on the general theme
of "Christian Citizenship," on Decem-
b~r 5, .and thus the spirit of the conven-
tion and its world-wide message will
be brought to Ann Arbor.
The"convention will continue-
through three days, ending December
when the Rev. Dr. S. ParkestCadman,
of Brooklyn, N. Y., ,one of the most
eloquent men in the country, will
speak on "Christianity and Patriot-
ism."
Hon. Frank J. Cannon, the first Un-
ited States senator elected by Utah,
will discuss "The Mormon Kingdom,"
and will introduce Elder Vernon J.
Danielson, of Independence, Mo., who
comes to expose the innermost secret
of the Mormon heirarchy.
Dr. John K. McClurkin, of the Shady
Side United Presbyterian Church,
Pittsburgh; Mrs. Lulu L. Shepard,
president of the Utah W. C. T. U.; Rev.
Henry Collin Minton, of Trenton, N.
J., president of the National Reform
association; Rev. Dr. James S. Mc-
Gaw, of Los Angeles, Cal.; Bishop
Edwin H. Hughes, of the Methodist
STUDENT RA PS FACULTY
CLAIMS ACTION IN DEFEATING
POETRY CLUB PLAN NARROW
AND ARROGANT.
Editor, The Michigan Daily:-
The communication of Mr. Adams
in Friday's Daily in regard to the
faculty's attitude on the Poetry club
emphasizes forcibly their attitude, in
general, towards undergraduates.
Ever since I came to this univer-
sity, I felt gradually growing upon
me the fact that there was too much
faculty control over students and stu-
dent organizations. That the univer-
sity is our Alma Mater should not be
construed to mean that the faculty
body act in the nature of an ever-
present parent whose consent must
be secured for our every act and who
feels that he must ,mold us all in the
same educational pattern, at the
same time attempting to squelch all
originality and individuality among
us. But such, it seems, is often the case.
It seems, also, that the student body
is placed more under high school
disciplinary regulations than they are
given the freedom of action which be-
comes a higher institution of learn-
ing. If students lack reliability and
responsibility, they surely will never
get these admirable qualities if it is
constantly demanded of them that
they hang on to the apron-strings of
an arrogant faculty.
It is indeed a pity that the origin-
ality and initiative of earnest stu-
dents, who have the interests of' the
whole student body and faculty at
heart, be so rudely frustrated. If
the university stands for one thing, it
st:nds for broad-mindedness; yet this
recent action of members of the fac-
ulty, who should in no wise lose sight
of this purpose, reveals the fact that
in their narrowness they are defeat-
ing this very end. Rather than de-
feat a plan such as was that of the
originators of the Poetry club, they
should welcome it with open arms
and give it all encouragement.
If faculty sanction cannot be had
for this admirableproject, let it as-
suredly go on under student aus-
pices. Michigan ought not to be de-
prived of this splendid opportunity
of intimate acquaintances with the
best contemporary poets and prose
writers, merely because some mem-
bers of the faculty feel childishly ag-
grieved because the idea of inviting
these representative men of letters
to our campus did not originate with
them. If art is "made tongue-tied by
authority" let thosedearnest students
of literature loose its tongue so that
we may hear the living voices and;
see living forms of these literary ar-
tists.

Huston Brothers Install New Humidor
'.Huston Brothers have recently in-
stalled a large, new, sectional humi-
dor at the back of the cigar counter in
their State street billiard hall. The1
humidor extends the entire length of'
the counter, and is divided into sec-
tions.
Underneath are long drawers for
cue racks, and shorter ones for sur-
plus stock. The whole is finished in
mahogany and white, and presents an
attractive appearance.

WILLIAM H. TAFT ADVOCATES
UNIVERSITY FOR PEDAGOGUES
Rochester, N. Y., Nov. 26.-Conver-
sion of the United States bureau of
education into a national university
for school teachers was advocated
today by ex-President Taft in an ad-
dress before the New York Teachers'
Association.1
Mr. Taft criticized the system of
education in the United States as
being inefficient and superficial. He
suggested that the federal govern-
ment might, through a system of in-
spection and criticism, aid the states
and cities in bringing about a higher
standard in respect to teachers and
methods.
If there is one thing on earth which
we would rather do than anything else
on earth, it is to get you there when
you are in a hurry. Stark, 2255.
