Jane Addams Suffers Breakdown Chicago, Ill., Dec. 1.-Jane Addams is seriousyl although not critically ill, in the Presbyterian hospital, stricken Monday night after an especially ac- tive day. She was taken to the hos- pital today. Until careful observation can be made, the exact nature of Miss Addams' illness cannot be determined, so it is believed to be a sort of physi- cal breakdown, caused by the strain of uninterrupted work. Lansing; Mich., Dec. 1.-As soon as the order can be filled by the firm that is in charge of the work, 10,000 neat little buttons bearing the slogan of the campaign that the state board of health is making against tuberculosis in Michigan, namely, "Health First," will be placed in the hands of the state health workers for distribution in the public schools. The health campaign in each county includes addresses to all the school children, and as soon as the buttons are ready for delivery, the pupils will be given an opportunity to display them on their coats and dresses. In this way it is believed the good health talks will make, more of an impression on the children's minds and the pupils will better remember the advice given by the health workers. Hastings, Mich., Dec. 1.-So much were the doctors of Hastings impress- ed with the free clinics that were held here during the "Health First" cam- paign conducted by the state board of health that they have decided to hold free clinics of their own once a week from now on. Each doctor in the city will give his time free of charge during certain hours of the week for this purpose and during those hours persons suspecting they may have tuberculosis can come in to be examined without charge. The finding of more than a hundred cases of tuberculosis in Barry county has prompted the doctors to take this step. They believe the free clinics will do much to help stamp out the diseases by causing people to come in for ex- amination when the disease is still in its early stage. First Year Laws to Hold Class Dinner Plans have been completed by the social committee of the first year law class for a class dinner to be given shortly before the holiday vacation. Arrangements are also being made for a dance, to be given the beginning of next semester.. EDISON COMPANY IE ] FELLOWSH OF $00 Company Puts Work in Charge of Prof. A. E. White, Who Performed Other Experiments for Firm Six hundred dollars have been given to the chemical engineering depart- ment of the University of Michigan by the Edison Illuminating company of Detroit to support a fellowship during the present college year. The Edison company maintains sev- eral very large power plants which it operates in accordance with the high- est principles of scientific manage- ment. In common with all other oper- ators of power plants, it has occa- sionally been subject to serious acci- dents and delays on account of the failure of boiler tubes in service. The company now plans to make a careful study of the proper specifica- tions for boiler tubes and disseminate the information gained for the general public. Realizing the superior facili- ties which the university affords, the Edison company has asked the chem- ical engineering department of the university to make a careful exam- ination of a number of tubes, some of which have failed and some of which have done excellent service. The metal will be subjected to careful chemical and microscopic examination to deter- mine whether it has the proper chem- ical composition and has been proper- ly manipulated by the manufacturers. Its properties will again be tested af- ter a new heat treatment to determine whether a different procedure in man- ufacture might have improved it. The work will be in charge of Prof. Albert E. White, of the chemical en- gineering department, who was suc- cessful in a previous investigation for the same company on brass condenser tubes. At the time when Professor White undertook this work on brass condenser tubes, the failures at the Edison company's plant averaged five tubes a day for each condenser. New specifications were recommended by Professor White and as a result of their enforcement there have not been as many broken condenser tubes in a year as there were in a day forrierly. The fellwship will be held during the coming year by Mr. Harold F. Wood, of Manistee, Michigan. Mr. Wood graduated from Ferris Insti- tute in 1911 and from the University of Michigan in February, 1915, with the A. B. degree. He completed the chemical engineering course at the University of Michigan at the close of the 1915 summer session, receiving the degree of B. Ch. E. He had been ap- pointed as a graduate assistant in chemical engineering at the university but resigned this to accept the new fellowship. There are now five fellowships in the chemical engineering department1 supported by organizations which take this broad-minded -and public-spirited' attitude. The university on its part is glad to cooperate in the solution ofE such problems of general interest,1 provided that the results of the In-t vestigation may be freely published by it. 1,000 FARMERS TO M1ET HERE SOON Grange Association to Hold Annual Convention in Ann Arbor This Month EVERY GRANGE SENDS TWO MEN More than 1,000 farmers from all over the state will attend the con- vention of the state Grange Associa- tion to be held here on the 14, 15, 16, and 17 of this month. Every grange inthe state of~Mich- igan will send two delegates to the convention. In addition to these there will be a great number of people who attend the grange meetings for edu- cational purposes. The object of the grange is to bring the farniers into closer relationship, and to solve prob- lems which trouble the agriculturist The grange provides the only source of entertainment that the farmer. re- ceives. Throughout the long winter months when travel is difficult and communication practically impossible, the grange meetings serve as the only social gatherings in which the isolated farmer can take part. The grange is a secret organization, and the meetings are not public. The membership in this body is limited to farmers. The convention meetings will be held in Hill Auditorium. On Wednesday evening there will be an open meeting to which the public is invited. A musical program, includ- ing an organ recital, will be given at this session. On Thursday evening the visiting delegates will be tendered a reception by the university authorities in Alumni Memorial hall.

What the faculty gains in agree- ment as to the desirability of training, it loses in the variation of opinions as to how the system should be applied. Of the 134 who favored training, only 120 believe that it should be compul- sory. In all, 84 votes were cast against making the system compul- sory, one member stating, "We want nothing compulsory in America except the exterpation of the hyphen." In favor of voluntary drill, 31 votes were registered; while 115 were counted against the proposal. Many stated that they would favor voluntary training only if the compulsory sys- tem should fail. I I Is L r I CITY NEWS Despondent, Kills Self. Despondency over the loss of his job as stenographer with.. a firm in Chelsea, was the cause of the suicide of Clarence J. Chapman, ag'ed 25, who ended his life Tuesday evening, by the gas route, at the home of 'his par- ents, 318 E. Catherine St. Young Chapman retired as usual in the evening and although disheartened over the loss of his job, he gave no hint of his intentions. When he failed to appear at the breakfast table yes- terday morning, his mother instituted a search for him with the result that she found him in a front room of the second story, lying on the floor uncon- scious, with his head near an open gas jet. Physicians worked for hours in an effort to revive the spark of life still remaining, but their efforts were fu- tile. As soon as it was ascertained that the young man was dead, Cor- oner Sam Burchfield was called who pronounced death the result of a sui- cidal intent. Mrs. Chapman said her son had carefully planned the suicide since he had closed all the windows and doors leading into the room. The room he chose for the act was in a part of the house little used-and where he stood the 'least chance of being observed. Issues Tax Receipts City Treasurer George Sweet was very busy all day yesterday, issuing tax receipts. Since it was the first day on which taxes could be paid, the treasurer and his staff of assistants did not expect to be very busy, but re- ceipts aggregating a sum equal to a week in last year's collections were issued. Rappold Brought to Trial Emil Rappold, who attempted to take his own life in the county jail, Sunday night, was arraigned yester- day afternoon before Justice of the Peace Doty, on the charge of carrying concealed weapons. Itappold waived the preliminary ex- amination, was bound over to the cir- cuit court, and committed to the care of the sheriff to await trial. Tom's in Print Again Tom Lovell, the poet and cobbler, when he learned of the engagement of President Wilson to Mrs. Norman Galt, composed a poem together with a let- ter of congratulation which he for- warded to the executive offices. Yesterday Mr. Lovell received a let- ter from the secretary of, the presi- dent which read as follows: "Dr. Tom Lovell, Ann Arbor, Mich., "My Dear Sir:-The president has asked me to thank you warmly for your kind message of congratulation which he heartily appreciates. "Sincerely yours, "J. P. TUMULTY, "Secretary to the President." Y. A. C. A. FILLS f MANY QUEER POSITIONS (Continued from Page Four.) work. As far as can be ascertained, only three students have left school be- cause of inability to get satisfactory jobs. Secretary Lovejoy believes that there are enough opportunities in Ann Arbor to earn money and that no stu- 'dent should quit because of financial difficulties. Considering the growth of the bureau during the last two years, the eventual aim of the department would seem to lean more and more toward vocational guidance. Under this plan a student will be able to obtain advice and statistics about the different voca- tions and find which one he is best fitted for.

A third favored universal military service under the auspices of the government. Several expressed the belief that credit should be given for drill work, and one mem- ber voted for the Swiss system. AfterI voting against training, one writer adds, "The United States government should do it and not spoil its univer- sities."
