In the midst of the excitement of
the first days of college and induction
into army life, students seem inclined
to forget that another patriotic duty,
less spectacular than entrance into the
service, is imperative at this time. The
Fourth Liberty Loan campaign, in
which the citizens of the country are
asked to. lend the largest amount of
money ever requested by this govern-
ment, is now in full swing throughout
the land. There is no need to ex-
plain the need for this loan. Enough
has been said in the other campaigns
and in the daily press despatches from
the front to put the conviction into
every American mind that the more
dollars that go into the service the
quicker the big job wil be done.
In coming to Ann Arbor after the
campaign has begun, it is probable
that some students have already sub-
scribed in their home towns. But the
majority have not done so and in the
rush of events they are letting the op-
portunity to make their subscriptions
voluntarily slip by. Every person in
the University should feel a special
obligation at this time, when so many
men are cheerfully foregoing the ad-
vantages of education that the men
aand women of the future may develo
their minds under a system of civiliza-
tion instead of kultur. And the men
of the students' army training corps,
who are being sent to the University,
fed, clothed, and housed by the govern-
ment, can do no less than put their
wages and the money which would
otherwise have gone to support them
in college to work for the power
which provides for their military and
academic training and at the same
time fights the battles in which they
are not yet prepared to take a part.
The amount so far subscribed by the
students is shamefully low. Some-
time during these next few days, settle
matters with your conscience by going
to Newberry hall and subscribing
every dollar you can squeeze out. Put
your shoulder to the wheel before
you're asked to do it. Be a student
volunteer.
KEEP YOUR HEAD
The University has experienced
more revdlutionary changes in the
past few months than have come to it
in many years before. Conditions in
some departments and in most ordin-
ary student activities border on the
chaotic. As one University official
puts it, "Things are in such a state
that one must either laugh or cry."
And like a wise man, he laughed.
Transforming Michigan from the
quiet easy-going institution of learn-
ing and leisure which the older stu-
dents on the campus remember, to the
alert, heel-clicking military camp
which it is now in the way to be,
is, like the building of Rome, not to
be done in a day. The galloping course
of events of the past summer have
forced these changes into a period al-
most as-short, and the inevitable re-
sult is confusion.
But there is no need to make con-
fusion more confusing by losing your
head and running a temperature be-
cause of the uncertainties of your pos-
ition. You may not know where you
stand, but neither does the man on
the deck-of a destroyer; he may be
on top of a rapidly ascending torpedo.
You may not know what is ahead of
you but neither does the Yank in the
trenches; a bursting shell may be
his immediate prospect at any mo-
ment.
Bear in mind that the system is go-
ing to be in working order soon and
meanwhile, laugh, don't cry. And keep
Not the least of the advantages of
going into khaki is that you don't have
to worry about whether your regis-
tration card is in your other'suit while
the slacker hunt is on.
It isn't often that a pied want ad
produces as cheerful a combination as
"Wanted-A' colored porter forup-
right piano." Mahogany to match.
"Ah, now I'm through with bolts
and bars," gleefully shouted the par-
doned convict. "So am I," sadly mur-
mured the S. A. T. C. man.
The proper street costume nowadays
consists of anything you may happen
to be wearing, trimmed with a Liberty
Loan volunteer card.
Soldiers To Use
HallForLounging
Memorial hall has been converted
into a Hostess house for the use of the
soldiers and their friends. It is evi-
dent that they appreciate the work
of the Collegiate Alumnae associa-
tion, as the writing room is well oc-
cupied every evening. Stationery is
supplied by the Y. M. C. A. and the
K. of C. and stamps may be purchased
at the desk. Orderlies are always at
hand to serve the hostess in charge.
In this way she can readily get in
touch with any of the men who have
been called for.
The comforts of library and sitting-
room have been supplied. Magazines
have been collected from the people of
Ann Arbor and fraternities have re-
sponded generously with the loan of
their furniture.3
During the summer months Barbour
gymnasium was used as the Hostess
house. Tables were provided and cof-
fee served for a nominal sum, that the
men might enjoy the contents of lunch
baskets that friends or relatives
might bring out. Entertainments
were given in Sarah Caswell Angell
hall, while the gymnasium itself was
used for band practice and the like.
THEOLOGIANS HEAD

A series of four lectures will be
given by prominent theologians un-
der the auspices of the Wesleyan Guild
of the Methodist church. The first lec-
ture will be delivered by Dr. Walter
A. Jessup, president of Iowa State

known educators in the country. Dr
Jessup will speak next Sunday even-
ing at 7:30, the subject to be'announc-
ed later.
On Nov. 3, Dr. Edgar P. Hill, pres-
ident of the McCormick Theological
Seminary of Chicago, will deliver an
address. On Dec. 1, Dr. Harry E. Fos-
dick of the Union Theological Semin-
ary, New York City, will speak in Hill
Auditorium at a Union service, in
charge of the Ann Arbor Federation of
Religious Workers and the Y. M. C. A.
The speaker is furnished by the Wes-
leyan Guild. Dr. Chas. A.' Barbour,
President of the Rochester Theologi-
cal Seminary, Rochester, N. Y., comes
to Ann Arbor on Dec. 8. All of the
lectures with the exception of Dr..
Fosdick's will be given in the Metho-
dist church.
WOMEN'S ORGANIZATIONS WILL
ENTERTAIN FRESHMAN GIRLS
Freshman girls are to be welcomed
to the University at a get-together
party to be held at Barbour gymnas-
ium, Oct. 4, under the auspices of
the Women's Athletic association and
the Women's league.
The new girls will be entertained
from 4 to 6 o'clock in the afternoon
with dancing and other forms of
amusement and-the president of the
Athletic association hopes to have
every member of the new class pre-
sent.
A drive for new members will be
started at the meeting and it is ex-
pected that the membership, which
now stands at 200, will be greatly in-
creased. More than 175 new members
have joined this year.
King's Daughters Convene This Week
Nearly 300 delegates are in the city
to attend the 20th annual convention
of the King's Daughters of Michigan,
and a still larger number is expected
today and Friday. The sessions are
being held in the Congregational
church and are presided over by the
state president, Mrs. James Nelson of
Detroit. President Harry B. Hutch-
ins gave an address of welcome to the
convention at its opening session.

ENGINEERS' SUPPLIES
The initial meeting of the first year
women was held in Sarah Caswell An-
gell Hall Tuesday afternoon at 4a
o'clock. About 200 (freshman girlsz
met with Dean Myra B. Jordan, for
the purpose of learning rules and tra-
ditions of the campus.
Dean Jordan made several official£
announcements concerning the girls1
and their relations to the dormitoriesx
and league houses., She said that pos-
itively no rooms may be changed with-
out consent from her office and that
the book of house rules which wasI
drawn up and passed upon by the girls1
last year is binding on all university
women. While it is frequently thought
that a certain number of bolts are al-!
lowed in all classes, Dean Jordan de-1
nied this plan of absence and said
that all absences must be passed up-
on by the attendance committee which
will meet on Mondays and Thursdays
in the Registrar's office from 10:30
to 11:45 o'clock. Absences resulting
from illnesses require a slip from the
health service. Too many unexcused
absences subject one to probation, ex-
pulsion or loss of right to partake in
campus activities.
Freshman Activities Limited
In respect to campus activities Dean
Jordan said that freshman women are
limited to activities in the Women's
league, Freshman glee club, and war
work, which will be organized later'
for all college women. She announced
that no classes may be dropped or
changed without a card of permission
from the Registrar's office and that
the permission of the instructor of the
subject is not sufficient. She urged
the girls to support and subscribe for
the Michigan Daily, Women's league
and the Y. W. C. A.
All freshman girls whether or not
they have received formal invitations
are invited to a reception to be given
by Dean Jordan in Barbour Gymna-
sium Monday at 3:30 instead of 4
o'clock, which was formerly announc-
ed. Following the reception the first
year girls will be entertained at din-;
ner by their junior advisors. In clos-
ing Dean Jordan announced a new
secretarial course which has been add-
ed to the college curriculum and ad-
vised all those who were interested to
consult her before choosing their work
for the second semester.
Urges Care for Health
Dr. Eloise Walker ofethe health
service gave a short talk telling of the
advantages of the medical service and
urged the women to consult her even
on what seem to be the slightest ail-
ments. The health service is open to
women every day from 10 to 12
o'clock and 2 to 4 o'clock. In regard
to the epidemic of Spanish influenza
she said that it was a new name for
old-fashioned grippe and may be eas-
ily avoided by keeping in general
good health. She also advised the
girls to be more careful about wear-
ing inappropriate wraps and suggest-
ed that they not wear hats, coats and
overshoes while in classes, as that is
the cause of minor ailments during the
winter.
Miss Marion Olive Wood, director of
physical culture, gave a prospectus
of the gymnasium work for this year
and described the four outdoor sports
to be chosen by freshman girls. They
are a.rchery, field hockey, tennis and
military marching, which it is expect-
ed will be very popular this year.
These sports will start w thin a week.
She announced that all Freshman are
required to attend five hygiene lec-
tures given by Dr. Walker and one on
posture given by herself. Health
cards were issued to the girls with
which they could tabulate their per-
sonal condition as to sleeping, exer-
cises, etc. Such a card completed
gives the owner one honor point in
the gymnasium. This system is ex-
pected to be an inducement to the
girls to be more heedful of their
health.
PROF. W. H. HOBBS TO GIVE
SERIES OF WAR LECTURES
Freshman girls who have not receiv-
ed invitations to Dean Jordan's party
and the junior advisor supper Monday
night, should see her secretary today
in Barbour gymnasium.
All sophomore women must register
for sports before Friday noon at Bar-
bour gymnasium. Locker tickets
must be secured immediately.
Junior girls who will serve Mon-
day night at the junior advisor sup-
per are asked to report immediately to
Marguerite Chapin, '20.
Freshman girls who have missed
their medical examinations at the
health service are to report at once
to Barbour gymnasium.
Freshman girls and new women may
secure freshman hand-books from the
Y. W. C. A. in Barbour gymnasium.
Sophomore women should register
at once for heart and lung tests.
DEAN 1JYRA B. JORDAN MAKES
RULING ON CLASSIFICATION
Considerable confusion about col-
lege credit having arisen since the sub-
stitution of term classes for the two
semesters, Dean Jordan has offered an
explanation to University.women. All
girls who have 24 hours or over are
entitled to the rank of sophomore. A
minimum of -54 hours is required for
junior classification, with a minimum
of 84 hours for seniors.
Homeeops to Hold Formal Opening

pathic Medical school will occur at
3 o'clock, Sunday, Oct. 6, in the Home-
opathic hospital lecture room. Dean
Hinsdale will deliver an address on

Physician of the Future."
