"WHY, YOU HAVEN'T SACRIFICED
AT ALL"
J. Fred Lawton, pep dispenser, told
the students at Hill auditorium yes-
terday that they were the best cheer-
ers he had ever heard.
J. Fred Lawton, booster of the United
War Work fund, mercifully forebore
to comment on the sums these cheer-
ers had contributed to help the sold-
iers and sailors in France and in
home cantonments.
J. Fred Lawton, loyal Michigan
alumnus, did not make the nasty, per-
sonal remarks he might have made
concerning the lack of 'civilian men
students and women students in the
audience.
The student soldiers were there,
and it is they who have contributed
what has been contributed by the
University to the War Work fund.
The student soldiers, that is, many of
them, can show where they pay $6 a
month for insurance, $10 a month for
their Liberty bonds and are constant
contributors to community entertain-
ments, all on $30 a month. There
are many student soldiers who have
not contracted such expenses and
have not contributed to the United
War Work fund, however. The sold-
iers should consult their own con-
sciences and ask if they are living up
to the spirit of the high oath they
took on entering the service of Un-
cle Sam.
Now let us come right back to the
women students and the men civilian
students.' There is no disposition to
browbeat or to bully the woman or
the man who is straining every re-
source for the bare necessities of at-
tending the University. They are,
this year as in other years, kept by
circumstances from contributing to
current campus activities. They are
showing a spirit, in attending the Uni-
versity at all, that makes it reason-
ably certain they will in future years
contribute greatly to the welfare of
their communities.
But the man civilian who spends
money on his non-essential pleasures;
whether those pleasures be books or
trips to Detroit; dances or expensive
cigarets, while neglecting or refus-
ing to contribute to the welfare of the
men who testified to their willingness
to lay down their lives to keep him
safe at the college and at home after
the college, is not a good Michigan
man, let alone a good citizen; is not
a good influence among his associ-
ates or in campus activities and should
be made to feel his status. Every stu-
dent who loves his country and -his
University and respects manhood
should shun that student. He is a
parasite. He takes all and gives noth
ing.
The girl student who will not deny
herself to give comfort to her broth-
ers is not a good type. She will be
a slacker all through life. She is of
the type that gives satirists material
for their lampoons on womankind.
There is still time to take Michi-
gan beyond the goal of $40,000 and
bring this year's students into stride
with this year's students at other uni-

just ask yourself how the students at
other universities did it. If tley can,
Michigan can.
MIukiGANIZED CHEERING
Conspicuous by its absence at the
Syracuse game Saturday was the un-
ited, collective cheering which in
former years has literally rocked the
stands of Ferry field. True it is that
there was a good deal of cheering, but
it was given half-heartediy and not
with the usual spontaneity. The ,north
and south bleachers this time !failed
to vie with each other in producing
the most effective yells.
That the disagreeable weather at-
tending the contest is responsible for
this deficiency serves as a weak ex-
cuse; never has climatic inclemency
been known to dampen the fires of
Michigan spirit. Recall the Nebraska
game, played in a downpour of rain,
as proof of the constancy of Michi-
gan's ardor.
Does the reason live in the fact that
Michigan resents having a freshman
cheer-leader? It is, indeed, regrett-
able that Michigan should have to
look down to the freshman class for
leaders; but it is a necessary step
so long as upperclassmen shirk their
duty and fail to accept the positions
which are theirs by right. If they
step in and assume the leadership,
Michigan will instinctively rally to
their support; but if they keep them-
selves aloof and allow freshmen to
hold the reins of power, then Mich-
gan must overco'e her class pre-
judices and stand behind the fresh-
men. At all costs, we must maintain
the old spirit of Michigan and not
manifest our petty jealousies when a
rival team is opposing the Varsity.
While the team was almost "suffic-
ient unto itself" lastSaturdayand
needed little help from the stands,
there may come a time when the Wol-
verines require the moral and vocal
backing of every student in the
bleachers. Let's prepare for .that
eventuality and resolve to bring Mich-
iganized cheering back into its own.
Our impression from the tales of
those who have been there is that the
chief ally of Germany 'was not Aus-
tria nor yet the devil, as Tommy At-
kins believes, but rather the small
entomological celebrity who so con-
veniently rhymes with duty.
With the ex-Al-Highest fading
away into a background of Dutch
blue, It is the turn of the Bolsheviki
to keep up the good work of making
the world hot for democracy.
Telling an S. A. T. C. man how to
employ his leisure time profitably is
like trying to sell tooth paste to a
canary.
Does Michigan want to be cellar
champion in the War Work Big Ten?
VOCATIONAL CONFERENCE DATE
REMAINS AS FORMERLY FIXED
Because the date of the visit of the
French mission at the University was
wrongly announced it will be possible
to hold the vocational conference Nov.
21 in Barbour gymnasium as had been
planned. The dates that the mission
is expected here are Nov. 26 and 27.
Personal conferences are to be held
as was planned and all those wishing
appointments with Dr. Ruben Peter-
son, Miss Marion Peterson, Miss Mar-
jorie Delevan, or Miss Helen Davis
are asked to notify Alice Comlossy,
'21, before Thursday.

25 BIBLE CLAS SES
MEET IN BARRACKS
An- approximate attendance of 400
was reported at Bible classes held
at the various barracks on Sunday.
Twenty-five classes were held in the
barracks, although there are still 10
barracks unorganized due to lack of
,leaders.
The men in the army classes are
studying "The Soldier Spirit" and the:
naval unit classes are using "The Mas-
ter's Way." The latter text is the
one used at the Great Lakes naval
training station, where there are from"
10,000 to 15,000 men in the classes.
Classes are led by University fac-
ulty men, high school professors, and
citizens. More classes will be form-
ed just as soon as leaders can be
found.
There will be a dinner given the
leaders and enlisted men who have
been elected presidents or secretaries
of the classes at 5:30 o'clock Friday
of this week at Lane hall. Mr. D.
W. Teachout, who has charge of the
Bible classes in the camps of the cen-
tral war department will speak at the
dinner.
It has been estimated that there are
about 150,000 men in Bible classes
throughout the country.
Child Welfare Car Resumes Tour
Detroit, Nov. 19.- The "children's
special" car, making a tour of the
state in the interests of child wel-
fare work under the direction of the
women's committee, Aational council
of defense, will resume its schedule,
leaving Jackson Nov. 17, following
the interruption caused by the influ-
enza quarantine. The car left Grand
Rapids Oct. 1 and had made only 19
of its scheduled 65 stops when the
epidemic temporarily halted the tour.
More Books Needed for S. A. T. C. Men
Books are needed for the libraries
in the recreation buildings provided
for the army and' navy men stationed
in Ann Arbor. Only fiction and works
of a popular character are in demand
at present. They may be left at the
Library or, if a messenger may be
sent for them, call University ex-
change, Librarian's office.
Woman Editor of Iowa Alumnus
Mrs. Grace Smith, an instructor in
Greek, was recently chosen the edi-
tor of the University of Iowa Alum-
nus. Mrs. Smith is the widow of Prof.
A. G. Smith. She is a contributor to
magazines and one of her recent ar-
ticles appears in the Classical Journ-
al.
