Teminine Verdant
M'ush Show Spii
Out with the green and glaring rib-
bons, you young and innocent maids
of '22. With the absence of green
ribbons, the fateful insignia of former
years for first year girls, the time-old
tradition of freshman distinction must
not be dropped but carried on in spite
of the lack of button material. On the
subject of adopting green ribbon bows
as the class numerals, several of the
verdant maids offer argument, pro and
con.
"But green doesn't go with any of
my clothes," says an elite of the class
of '22.
"Sure I'll wear one, I don't .care
what happens to me," said another
with some real class spirit.
"Hang traditions, then everybody
will know I'm a freshman," said one
who has evidently been fooling the in-
nocent bystanders of her actual status
on the campus.
Whatever they think of the color
scheme or style they must get in the
spirit, and don the bows. This week
will see the girls blossoming forth
with their greenery. It was suggested
that they be worn around the right
wrist, but this is merely a personal
opinion of the latest mode and we mayh
see them being worn around the
ankles, waist, or neck. It is a small
matter where you put 'em but get
them out in the daylight and show
them to the world.
CAMPAIGN OF Y. W. C. A. CLOSES
WITH 879 NEW MEMBERSHIPS
The Y. W. C. A. memebrship cans-
paign conducted last week on the cam-
pus, came to a close with a total mem-
bership of 650 student-members, 379
of whom were taken ig on this cam-j
paign only. All the reports are not
yet tabulated owing to the influenza
epidemic, but it is hoped that there
will be 700 student members, which,
with the honorary membership, will1
bring the total number to 1,000. l
Ruth Jennings, '19, was the generalc
chairman of the campaign and the
sub-chairmens were: Faith Palmer-
lee, '20, Elsie Erley, '18, Laurettat
Gibbs, School of Music, Katherine1
Farrah, School of Music, Katherine
Loveland, '19 Grace Ohlmacher, '21,c
Florence Melcher, '19, Groesso Gaines,1
'19, Gladys Vinter, '19, Gertrude Gunn,t
'19, and Dorothy Durfee, '19.f
Katherine Loveland's team securedI
the greatest number of. members, 561
being taken in. Groessa Gaines' teamr
came in second with 45 members, andr
Gertrude Gunn, third with 40 mem-
bers. All of the 80 workers showedI
remarkable ability, and great credits
is due them.C

OLD GUILD HOUSES
PUT IN SERVICE
MacMillan and Sackett halls, the
Presbyterian church house and guild
on Huron and State streets, have
been temporarily turned over to the
government for the accommodation
of the S. A. T. C. The quartermas-
ter's headquarters are in the rooms
of MacMillan hall, that part of the
building on State street which was
formerly used as church parlors.
This was closed all last year, and
was not to be re-opened this year
had it not been for the demand that
came to the University for barracks
and accommodation for the soldiers.
Sackett hall, which has been used for
a guild house and -dormitory for Pres-
byterian men up to this year, is now
serving as barracks for 75 men, seven
of whom are engineers, and the rest
pre-medics. This part of the build-
ing was also to have been closed be-
cause of the inability of the trustees
to heat it properly and to make the
necessary repairs for its use as a
dormitory.
The Baptist guild house is also clos-
ed because of the same reasons but
now it is being looked over in regard
to opening it for social rooms for the
students in the S. A. T. C. If open-
ed the men will be invited to use it
from Saturday noon to Sunday night,
on general invitation, and it miay eve
be possible to have socials on Satur-
day evenings, to which ladies will al-
so be invited. There are three large
rooms downstairs which will be fine
.for reading or reception rooms, and if
they seem to be in demand the guild
house will remain open as long as
the demand lasts.
Social centers for the purpose of
entertaining the men in the S. A. T.
C. are certainly needed, and the of-
fer of the Baptist church will doubt-
less be appreciated. There are also
tennis courts at the side which are
not in bad shape and could be put in
good condition if the men wished to
use them.
SACRIFICES SELF
TO BE NEAR SON
We have heard a lot about mother
love, but a striking example of the
love of a father came to light a few
days ago in connection with a case
of influenza.
A certain S. A. T. C. man was strick-
en with the "flu." For a short while6
he was quite ill, but now he is much E
better and is far on the road to re-t
covery. His father came to see him,
but the rules would not allow him2
to meet his son. Then the fathera
found out that the son would be re-
leased within a few days, and would1
be put on light work in the Union.e
The father immediately sought andI
obtained a job in the Union as ant
orderly. This placed him under mil-I
itary discipline but he considered it ae
small sacrifice to make for the sake
of being near his son.1

PERSHING SEN S OUT CALL

Of the ministers who attempted to
s.ve the Ia'1 1rom bankruptcy held
the idea that all that was necessary
was to cOminUO the waste and ex-
p-nditu:e widi: greater abandon than
over, thrus ceJincing a skeptical
worj- that the wealth of France was
boundes:: ad establishing her credit
with :ore.gn countries. His effort was
a .slgnat fatiro and plunged his coun-
~try imto groatec depths of distress
thr beore. Iwas a deception, and
kea If t ,failed in the long
run. Even Becky Sharp could not live
on nothing a year forever.
But in he it.cory that a conviction
uf national rower to produce wealth
and expend it freely is a wholesome
reIcctiuu for the enemies of the coun-
try, the old lh ch minister had a
bit of truth, S: billions and more
of American dollars poured out to

a mighty inpreaion on the German

~that they are being spent effectively

"hat they arc uP freely made invest-

MICHIGAN MEN CARRY hONORS
WRILE IN SERVICE OF NATION
Army commissions have been won
by three Michigan men out of a total
of 42 appointments from this state re-
cently announced at Washington. Col.
J. Y. Van Dusen, '96M, has been trans-
ferred from the surgeon-general's
department to that of the chief of
staff at Washington. Thomas Hussey
Heppeard, '18E, has been made second
lieutenant in the adjutant-general's
department. Alex. H. Pearson has
been promoted to first lieutenant in
the ordnance department.
RED CROSS GIVEN NEW QUOTA;
SERVICES OF WOMEN NEEDED
The Red Cross at the Angell house
has started on its new quota of pads.
The entire day is devoted to the com-
pleting of this allotment and no masks
are being made at present. The Red
Cross expects to have this' quota fin-
ished by Nov. 15, although such hopes
are doubted unless more girls turn
out to work. A request is made that
the University women show their pa-
triotism by offering their services at
the Red Cross.
Huge Megaphone Erected at Ft. Riley
Fort Riley has erected a huge meg-
aphone on a stand to enable a field
bugler to sound reveille. By the use
of the megaphone to augment the bu-
gler's tones, the one instrument is
sufficient for the entire camp and its.
notes carry equally as far as those of
the regimiental band.
hen the last note of the retreat
has died away the band plays "The
Star Spangled Banner" as the flag isl
lowered and the strenuous day at
camp is officially over for the sold-
iers.

1. PETIT ADDED TO
DEPARTMENT HERE
1V. Jean Petit, who was recently
added to the French faculty of the
University, arrived in Ann Arbor,
Tuesday. Difficulties of transportation
prevented earlier arrival. Prof. Ar-
thur G. Canfield, department head, has
been keeping the classes organized
until M. Petit, who was secured
through his efforts, could reach here.
Classes will be taken over by the
French professor immediately. The
French faculty feels that it has se-
cured a decided addition in M. Petit
who served in the French army and
whose wounds disqualified him for
service. He is a widower with one
child, a daughter, who will make her
home in this country.
NORWEGIAN FREIGHTER SAVED
BY CARGO OF SWOLLEN GRAIN
An unusual salvage of submarine
warfare is that of the Norwegian
steamer, Kongsli, whose -.cargo of
grain swelled to such an extent on the
inrush of water through the ragged
hole torn in her side by a torpedo
that the hole was clogged up and the
water prevented from flowing in and
sinking her.
The vessel was torpedoed about 15
miles off the coast of Holland and
was later towed to Yumiden, near
Amsterdam, where it was put into dry"-
dock and her hull repaired.
The captain and his crew had aban-
doned her as soon as possible after
she was struck by the torpedo, be-
cause she had listed to a dangerous
degree. A party of fishermen finding
her abandoned clambored aboard to
discover the trouble, They were
amazed to find that the ragged hole
on one side and hull plates torn loose
on the other by the force of the ex-
plosion, had been , effectively plugged
by the swollen grain.

The postal service is having grave
difficulties in locating some of the
men in the S. A. T. C. The men gave
their addresses when registering but
have been put in barracks since and
some of them can not be located for
some unknown reason. 4 special de-
livery letter came to the post office
yesterday for Morris Shuberg, ad-
dressed "In care of the Infrmary,
U. of M," from his father, in New
Britain, Conn. With the help of the
army officials the post office was still'
unable to locate the man.
F Farmer DIscovers Coal Saver
Lancester, Pa., Oct. 22. - A coal
substitute has been found in lime-
stone, and proved to be a success, by
a Lancaster county farmer, Christian
H. Habecker, of Rohrerstown. By
crushing the stone into nut size and'
mixing it with the coal, he kept his
house at a temperature above normal
all last winter. The mixeure gener-
ally consisted of two-thirds coal and
one-third limestone, but at times he
used one-half limestone and the re-
sults were just as good.
The stone should be mixed with the
coal just before putting it into the
furnace, as there is danger of explo-
sion from gas, if mixed in the bins.
This discovery will prove especially
beneficial to farmers who can use the
lime released from the stone for a fer-
tilizer.
'Germans Cruel to American Prisoners
The Hague, Oct. 22-Correspondents
learn from first-hand evidence that a
captured American whose body was
full of shrapnel, was forced to work
for the Germans behind the. front1
line. Other reports state that the
Americans are made to do all the dirty
work in the prison camps.
Russians in the German camps are
supposed to have received over-doses
of morphine and cocaine to solve the;
problem of death by starvation. '
