It is desirable that college women should arrive at a de- cision and make the necessary arrangements, if convenient, before leaving on vacation. Peace, temperance and better edu- cation were the three main issues which the State Grange advocated in a spirited meeting yesterday after- noon in Hill auditorium. At least one thousand delegates and friends were in attendance and responded heartily to the efforts of the speakers. E. C. Lindemann, state representa- tive for the "Boys' and Girls' Club Work" of Michigan, entered the plea for better educational institutions for the farm girls and boys of the state. He declared that the only hope of the state's agricultural prosperity lay in the boys and girls and unless they were properly prepared to undertake the tasks, the farming industry would fail. Mr. Lindemann illustrated his point with stereoptican pictures of the work of the young people interested in his club work. He also gave figures to show that the boys of the state were beating their fathers in the production of potatoes, corn, and apples; and as a fitting climax to his address, pre- sented the boy who was the chain- pion potato grower of Michigan last year. His final plea was then for aid in the work of educating the young farmers so that the $250,000,000 loss suffered every year in this country by the farmers could be eliminated. Ivan Chapel, a 14-year-old youth from Lansing, represented the tem- perance faction and in a speech won- derfully clear for such a youngster, hurled a challenge at the fathers and mothers present to take steps now to rid the state and the nation of the1 liquor evil. "Do not do this," saidt Chapel in conclusion, "to save onlyE those who have already fallen vic- tims to the drink habit, but to savet the boys of today so that they willt grow up to be suitable citizens of thea country.", In concluding the exercises the I Grange society presented a "Panto-r mime of Peace," which interpretedt "Faith, Hope, and Charity" as differ- ent stages of a mother's love for her9 boy, and how her wish for him wasd that he might be a power for peace,b and an aid to the nation's prosperity. President-Emeritus James B. An-x gell, who was expected to offer the in-b troductory greeting to the membersn of the Grange, was unable to be pres- ent, and so there was no representa-a tive of the university there to welcomed them.b Thursday afternoon the election willa be held to decide the place of the 1916d meeting.

Although granting that the steps of President Wilson towards national preparedness are good, the National Security League does not believe that they are potent enough. Their idea is embodied in the telegram received by the Ann Arbor branch on Saturday, which caused the local executive com- mittee to telegraph back their assur- ances of hearty cooperation. The telegram from the central office in New York city was as follows: "The ' National Security League urges the vital importance of prompt action to meet the emergency caused by the present lamentable unprepared- ness of the nation. It also recognizes that if the various elements of this nation, who are united in a desire for such action, insist too stubbornly on their varying views as to details, the whole movement may be delayed or frustrated. It is gratifying that the present administration so earnestly advocates all measures for national defense and believes that citizens of all parties should lend theirsupport towards securing the necessary legis- lation at the coming session of con- gress. "It renews its repeated insistance that the advice of the General Board and General Staff of the Army should be closely followed in the legislation Conservation of Ene What Electricity Means to You In Your Home The new waiting and fitting rooms are located on the Second Floor near the Tea Room.

For that reason it believes that the naval program announced by the President in his message should be brought to com- pletion more rapidly than is proposed, and as to the army program, it be- lieves that the regular army should be enlarged at least to the very mod- erate recommendations of the Gen- eral Staff, that a proper reserve sys- tem should be established, and that the proposed creation of a citizen army upon which in the last instance the defense of the country must de- pend, should be laid upon a broader, more democratic and practical founda- tion. "Without opposing any of the sug- gestions of the President which he designates as 'essential first steps,' it believes that legislation supplement- ing and expanding these is necessary before the defense of the Nation can be placed upon an adequate and per- manent basis. "Please call members promptly to adopt, alter and amend resolution. We desire referendum judgment of branches immediately on this import- ant subject. Advise us by wire imme- diately." (Signed) NATIONAL SECURITY LEAGUE. A meeting of the executive commit- tee was called at once to pass upon this resolution, and as a result, the following answer was dispatched: "Ann Arbor branch heartily sup- ports resolution as per telegram re- ceived. Partial defense it regards as no defense, and considers that in a matter of such moment none but ex- perts can decide what is adequate and wise. It therefore urges that congress adopt the recommendations of the General Board of the Navy and the General Staff of the Army." (Signed) WM. H. HOBBS, Chairman, JOHN W. BRADSHAW, Sec'y.
