"PREPAREDNESS "
A household word in every home these days and a nelitting slogan in the matter
of clothes.
The scarcity of good woolens is considerable more than a mere scare, it is a most
decided reality. .
We have rushed in our complete stock of Spring fabrics, owing to their constant
rise in price, and are earnestly urging all our customer-friends to place their orders
now before further advances, and while the choice patterns are to be had.
There is every argument in favor of your buying now and no argument against it.
WE ARE PREPAR E )
AND YOU SH-OUID) BE.

LIFE BOATS-A POSSIBILITY
The recently published report of the
joint committee composed of the city
officials, the Eastern Michigan Edi-
son company, and the student council,
looking toward a greater degree of
safety on the Huron, is a great piece
of constructive work. Had this been
done several years ago it may have
meant the saving of at least two lives.
It looks as though the student coun-
cil has become a body which is work-
ing for the welfare of the student body,
which has become a power that hus-
ties and accomplishes, and which
means more than a debating society.
There are others who might have ini-
tiated and carried through the reforms
for the river dangers. The Boat club
or one of the campus societies could
have taken the lead. They have failed,
partly because of lack of dispatch,
but still they can do much in co-op-
erating with the council, the city, and
the Edison company. Real student
government is exemplified in the men
of the council who engineered the Hu-
ron safeguard movement through the
inertia of civic, corporate and student
officials.
Women's Organizations
Some changes have been made in
he Junior Girls' play committee. Helen
Champion has been appointed assist-
ant to the chairman; Hazel Giddings
has been made property manager to
fill the vacancy left by Albertine
Loomis; and Margaret Long is cos-
tume manager. The other members
of the committee are Margaret Rey-
nolds, chairman; Ruberta Woodworth,
publicity manager; and Anita Kelley,
business manager.

WAKING UP THE COLLEGES
(New York Sun)
Colleges are supposed, and they pre-
tend, to fit young men for life in this
world, not for existence in some uto-
pian realm yet undiscovered save in
the dreams of idealists. Discounting
fairly the charges brought by critics
too exclusively practical, the fact re-
mains that college education in this
country, without surrendering what
is praiseworthy in its idealism, can be
improved in no other way so much as
by being brought into closer touch
with business life.
Colleges, perceiving the need, have
failed to create the opportunity for
its satisfaction. The first practical
effort comes from outside the faculty
room. The National City bank of New
York, in placing before Yale, Harvard,
Princeton, Columbia and other uni-
versities of the East, and half a dozen
state universities in the West, a care-
fully planned scheme of co-operation,
has rendered both to education and to
business in this country a service as
promising of benefit as it is extraor-
dinary - though perfectly simple-in
its conception and detailed program of
execution.
Modern business demands special
training. College education, whether
justly or not, is increasingly held in
esteem as a credential for candidates
for places of trust and responsibility.
But the college man going into busi-
ness loses time, not necessarily in un-
learning what he has learned, but in
orienting himself to the new environ-
ment. The City Bank's plan is devised
with the prime purpos of bridging
this gap. It calls, in briefe. t sum-
mary, for the sending of pick-!d stu-
dents, in two summer vacaticas nad
for six months of the senior year, to
this city, to work and study in the
banking offices, the bank to have first
call upon the services of the best men
after the period of training. Courses
in banking, foreign exchanges, credit,
economics, commercial geography and
modern languages are to be given. It
is proposed to begin this summer, with
selected students from seven of the
most prominent Eastern universities.
Both educators and business men
will watch the working out of this
plan with interest and, on one side or
the other, some misgivings. But the
colleges have agreed to give credit for
the work done toward their degree,
and the bank is to provide Instructors
to supervise the students' -pogress
from the messenger department, check
desk and mail desk, through the in-
tricacies of collection and bookkeep-
ing to the higher felds of "credit and
new business," auditing and foreign
exchange.
The colleges will wake up, the bank
will gain, other businesses may profit-
ably follow suit; and bright lads at
school will be blessed with exceptional
opportunities to accelerate the hard
proces of "making good."

COMMITTEE IN RULING ON CASE
OF ACHI
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
I was considerably surprised at the
contents of Mr. N. S. Hardikar's let-
ter appearing in yesterday's Daily. On
the surface it seems that Mr. Hardikar
should be better informed than to raise
he questions he did. Since Mr. H rdikar
took Mr. Achi as a specific example, I
will do the same. Personally I admire
Mr. Achi very much and do not intend
this to be considered personal in any
way.
Mr. Achi was the first person in the1
university excepting the secretary of'

r
his school to know that he was ineli-
gible. He also knew that it was his
duty to ascertain his eligibility on his
own behalf and on behalf of the Re-
vue. Mr. Achi also knew that it is
an inflexible rule that ineligible stud-
ents are not allowed to participate
in student activities. Why did he not
go to the manager of the Revue and
give him that information so that ade-
quate preparations could be made?
The managers of the Revue are men
all experienced in student activities
and are well aware of the temper of
the eligibility committee. Why did
they not submit their list of partici-
pants as soon as the marks were pub-
lished, as did the management of the
Michigan Union opera.
Withdut trying to seem unfair it
appears to me that the management
willfully let the matter of eligibility
slide until the last moment, hoping
that the committee would make ex-
ceptions for the success of the Revue.
Such practices are not attempted by
other organizations and I do not
think that Mr. Hardikar can honestly
accuse Dr. Vibbert or his committee1
of any unfairness. If Mr. Hardikr
wishes to criticise, he will find -his
subject in Mr. Achi, the other mem-
bers of the cast who were declared in-
eligible, and the management. Had,
they done their duty, the eleventh
hour change would not have been
necessary. .

FALSE CHECK IS PASSEL) FOR

That one worthless check was passed
in ,paying for tickets for the All-Na-

fraudulent checks have been passed
here within the last few weeks was
the statement made yesterday after-
noon by Chief of Police Frank Par-

first discovered to be false. by em-

being made.
