RESOLUTIONS FOR
ANELLADOPTED
Student Council Passes Memorial for
Late President-Emeritus at f,
Recent Meeting
VOICES S T U D E N T SENTIMENT
Resolutions on the death of the late
President-Emeritus James Burrill An-
gell were read and adopted at the
meeting of the Student Council held
recently. The eicomium'is as follows:
"Life's race well run,
Life's work well done,
Life's crown well won,
Now comes rest."
Whereas, the Omniscient Father of
all has seen fit to call from his earth-
ly labors our venerable and revered
President-Emeritus, James Burrill
Angell;
And whereas, the long life of this
great and good man was so rich and
complete, so pregnant with heroic
servkce both for the country which
he loved and particularly for his fel-
lowmen whom he sought to enlighten
and aplift by his untiring efforts in
the field of education;
And whereas, his long service for
our Alma Mater, the University of
Mihigan, whose growth, ideals and
success were ever uppermost in his
mind, was largely responsible for the
pre-eaiinent position which today it
occupies in the educational world and
endeared him to the present student
body of the university and also to the
thousands of other young men and
young women with whom in his cap-
acity as teacher and president he be-
came associated;
And whereas, the passing of this
noble Christian gentleman, this hon-
ored statesman, this great educator,
has filled with grief the hearts of all
who knew him and we can not but
feel keenly the loss of a man of such
inestimable worth, yet though he has
passed from among us we feel that he
still lives enshrined in all our hearts
and his noble life and sterling char-
acter will be a perennial memory and
inspiration to all of us;
Therefore, be it resolved: That the
student body of the University of
Michigan, through the student Coun-
cil as its representative, extend to
the family of our late Presient-Emeri-
tus, James B. Angell, our profoun.
sympathy in this, their great bereave-
"met;
And be it further resolved: That1
these resolutions be given to the fam-
ily of our late President-Emeritus, that
they be published in The Michigan
Daly and The Alumnus, and that they7
be made a part of the permanent re-
ords of the Student Council.

CHEMICAL ANAYSIS PROVES
BETSY ROSS CANDIES BEST
Report Results of Test by Rockford
City Chemist
There are many kinds of candies on
the market today, all advertised as
being pure and fresh, but very fewr
that will stand the acid test of rigid

chemical analysis. The Betsy Ross
Candy Shop. 600 E. Liberty St., have
always claimed that they sell the best,
freshest, and most delicious candies
to be had anywhere' at any price.
They have backed up this claim by
having their entire line subjected to
chemical analysis and they are inY
receipt of the following report of the
examining chemist.
Rockford, Ill., March 14, 1916.
-I have carefully examined each va-
riety of candy and find no starch or
other cheap filler in a single instanceh
In fact I find only the best and fresh.
est materials used in making these
candies.v
I have no hesitancy in commending
this candy to discriminating people
who desire the best in the confection-L

GRADUATE FORESTERS
SURVEYTIMBER LND
Michigan Men Give Suggestions for
Perpetuation of Woods, Dur-
lng Spring Vacation
Timber land belonging to Regent
Harry C. Bl4kley4 which a govern-
ment inspector of forests stated was
the second best in the United States,
was surveyed by six graduate forest-
ers during spring vacation.
Mr. Bulkley had appealed to the for-
estry department to suggest plans for
the preservation of the forest and as
a result the party, under the direction
of Mr. Pottinger, instructor in the for-
estry department, took a valuation
survey of the woods, which are sit-
uated a few miles from Northville.
The results of the survey were along
the lines of suggestions for the per-
petuation of the woods and for in-
creasing the right amount and qual-
ity of wood to be expected from such
land.
This survey will be repeated by each
post graduate class and may become
a part of the curriculum of the de-
partment, If the plan is successful
other forests in the vicinity of Ann
Arbor will be inspected so as to raise
the to itheir highest efficiency.
BUSRAKCAPAGNERS TO
STARTCANVASSSUNDAY
Y. I. C. A. Workers Will Attempt to
Raise $650 for Support of
Mission in Arabia
The annual Busrah missionary cam-
paign of the university Y. M. C. A.
will be started with a mass meeting
in Hill auditorium next Sunday eve-
ning at 7:00 o'clock. The campaign
will last until the following Thursday,
and during this time a committee of
nearly 300 men and women will at-
tempt to raise $3650 among the stu-
dents for the support at Busrah, Ara-
bia, of the three Michigan mission-
aries who are giving their lives to
medical work at the hospital in Bus-
rah.
The campaign work has been divid-
ed up among 18 committees with a
captaina th head of each committee.
Each captain will have charge of
15 men. There will be two commit-
tees of women consisting of 49 each.
On Sunday morning there will be a
breakfast between 9:00 and 10:00
o'clock in Newberry hall for all mem-
bers of the campaign committee. Dr.
Paul Hafrison, who was for a num-
ber of years a medical missionary in
Arabia, will speak at that breakfast,
telling of the importance and need
of missionary work.
There will be dinner on Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday
evenings at the Methodist church for
all committee members. Prominent
speakers will talk on each occasion.
Students who had experience last
year in Busrah campaign work will
he asked to work again this year as
their experience is needed for this
year's success.
A feature of the campaign will be a
'adder situated at some prominent
lace on St te street, the ascent of
vhich, b e figure of an Arabian
nan, will mark the increase in the
size of the budget.]
One of tieacts noted by the campus
posters is that Dr. Van Vlack, Michi-
;an's doctor in Arabia, treated 11,0001

persons during 1915, while Dr. Cum-
:nings of the..university health serv-
ice treated less than one-third of this
number.
The women of the Y. W. C. A. are
planning to do' a large part of this
year's campaign work. They have
promised to raise $1,000 out of the
required $3650.
W ilder Speaks Sunday
Word has just been received by
Mr. W. H. Tinker, secretary of the
Y. M. C. A., that Dr. Amos P. Wilder
has been secured to speak next Sun-
day evening. Dr. Wilder will take
the place of Mr. Fletcher Brochman,
who was to have spoken but was re-
sently obliged to cancel all lecture en-
gagements on account of ill health.
Dr. Wilder was formerly consul-gen-
3ral of Hor.g Kong and Shanghai,
China, and is now the financianl rep-
resentative of the'tale mission.
THIS WILL INTEREST YOU
Where it is necessary for a student
o make a loan to enable him to finish
,is education, he will find it easier to,
do so, if he can give a policy of life
insurance as his security that the
loan will be paid in the event of his
death before he has been able to pay
it off out of his earnings. Let us talk
it over. Harry Bacher, District Agent,1

Student States Editorial Article
Be "Misinterpretation of
Facts in Case"
WRITES IN JUSTICE TO 11O

to

BBB

F. A. Klann, '17, who, together with
Prof. W. H. Hobbs of the geology de-
partment, was the object of a severe
editorial diatribe by the editor of the
Platform, a national magazine sup-
porting the claims of Dr. Frederick
Cook to the discovery of the North
Pole, made the following statements
when interviewed yesterday:
"Professor W. H. Hobbs has called
my attention to an editorial in the
Platform in which my communica-
tion to The Michigan Daily of Febru-
ary 22 was quoted, or rather, mis-
quoted in order to reflect upon Pro-
fessor Hobbs.
"I do not agree with Professor Hobbs
in his views on preparedness-in fact
I take exactly the opposite view of
that held by the local preparedness
advocates-but I do not feel that such
a mis-statement of fact and such a
bald perversion of the true situation
should remain unchallenged. Be-
cause of the publicity given to the
article in yesterday's Daily and be-
cause Professor Hobbs deemed it ad-
visable in justice to him, I make this
explanation.
"It is true that on several occasions
I had heard professors discuss pre-
paredness in their classrooms, and I
know of several students who have
had similar experiences. This was
what I deplored in my communication
of February 22. In no case was Pro-
fessor Hobbs involved.
"I have heard Professor Hobbs
speak on the preparedness issues but
always outside of the classroom. I
do not now take, and have never had
any work under Professor Hobbs, and
I do not know of anyone who has
heard him discuss preparedness ini
his classroom.
The statements of the Platform,
seem, therefore, to be founded uponi
falsehood, or a perversion and misin-
terpretation of the facts in the case."

New Haven, Conn., April 19.-Co-

them an 8 to 6 decision over the Yale

Eli batsmen completely at his mercy,E
allowing them but six scattered hits.
Besides this, he secured three safeties
out of five trips to the plate, his single

A traveling stock company is no
longer an aggregation that presents
inferior plays. It is quite the reverse.
The productions made by Arthur
Chattertoa, have been considered what
is undoubtedly the only opportunity
of seeing the truly famous plays, ar-
tisticaily presented at prices within
the reach o- all.
Tonight he will present that well
kr'own comedy drama "The Gam-
blers." This is one of the biggest of
the New York successes and it has
played in all of the principal cities in
the country, but this will be the first
time that Ann Arbor has had an op-
portunity to see this wonderful play.
It will be g en at both matinee and
night shows.
WILSON NOTIFIES GERMANY
TO (CIIOOSE IMMEDIATELY BE-
TWEEN ABANDONMENT OF
SBDMARIINE WARFARE AND
SEWVERANCE OF DIPLOMATIC
RELATIONS WITH U. S.
(Continued from Page One)
are indications that Germany might
agree to do this.
T WO CONSTRUTIONS POSSIBLE
Count von lBernstorff has an engage-
ment with Secretary Lansing tomor-
row and probably will make a final
effort to avert a diplomatic break by
reopening negotiations along those
lines. Officials here said this afternoon
that negotiations might be reopened
provided Germany immediately de-
clares and effects an abandonment of
its submarine warfare before these ne-
gotiations were undertaken.
In other words, if Germany will
agree to hold its submarine campaign
in abeyance while it is negotiating
with the United States, there would be
no disposition upon the part of the-
United States government to press
matters unduly, but it was made clear
that an immediate cessation of Ger-
many's submarine campaign was the
only contingency on which the matter
could be reopened. There is grave
doubt here whether the imperial gov-
erment will agree to this and if it
is refused, a break seems almost in-
evitable.
BERNSTORFF PESSIMISTIC
The word "immediate" in the presi-
dent's demands is likely to be the
outstanding feature so far as Germany
is concerned. Count von Bernstorff
has not, of course, had time to learn
officially his government's views, but
he understands well what Berlin's at-
titude will be. Ile is understood to
despair of any immediate cessation of
the submarine campaign unless Great
Britain in the meantime relaxes the
rigour of the blockade. Germany is
willing to declare a truce in submar-
ine activities in order that this ques-
tion may be discussed and settled with
the United States provided Great
Britain will take similar action in the
blockade. But the German govern-
ment is unwilling to permit Great
Britain to continue tightening the
blockade while it is . temporarily

forced to abandon its campaign of re-
prisal.
The seriousness of the situation lies
in the fact that Germany, according to
authoritative information here, is not
willing to give up its submaiine cam-
paign against merchantmen and Presi-
dent Wilson apparently is unwilling to
accept any further proposals until Ger-
many has first complied with his spe-
cific demands that the imperial gov-
ernment "immediately declare and
effect a change in the present methods
of submarine warfare."
Two Ballots Today in School Election
Two ballots will be used in the
school election to be held in the high
school from 2:00 o'clock until 8:00
o'clock this afternoon. One will be
used .to decide upon the bonding of
the district to the extent of $235,000
for school woirk, and the other will
suggest seven different ways in which
this money can be used. All tax-
payers are eligible to vote upon this
issue.
Last Wrestling Semi-Finals today
Kerwin and Weske meet in the last
match in the wrestling semi-finals at
3:00 o'clock in the gym this after-
noon. The two heavyweights have
been showing good form and a close
battle is anticipated.

BOOKS WORTH READIN
"THE MAN OF PROMISE"-By Wil-
lard Huntington Wright. - New
York: The John Lane Co.
"The Man of Promise" is Joseph
West, the son of a professor in a
small western college. Early in life
he feels that he is going to do and
be something great, He breaks away,
from the ideals and traditions of his
parents. But many women, begin-
ning with his -nothe_, come into his
life to prevent the realization of his
purpose. With their conservatism
they fasten themselves upon him and
drag his ambition and his fire into'
the depths of emotional debauchery
from which he has not the power to ex-
tricate himself. The story ends with
his complete relinquishment o hisj

early ideal and his cynical acceptance
of the ideals and necessities of ordinary
life.
Mr. Wright seems to mistake the
vague iconoclasm of youth for the
spark of divine fire. He has taken a
fragile, evanescent fabric and tried
to make of it a bridge of life. One
wonders at his surprise that it should
break down. The story lacks stabil-
ity and sureness because it is vague
where it should be decisive and con-
crete where it should be sketchy.
