THE NEW REPORTER
The discerning newspaper reader
A remarked in the last year or two
great change in the kind of news
inted' He has seen that the trivial
d the sensational has been supplant-
by the interpretative and inform-
ve. Articles on taxation, for ex-
iple, contain references to funda-
mtal principles of economics where,'
Pore the war, representatives of the
ople would have been quoted in
rtisan attacks. He has seen that,
ien partisan attacks were made in'
e national senate or house of rep-
sentatives, the reporter makes it
n that the news service he repre-
ats entertains nothing but disgusta
r such fulminations. The reader has
served that military movements arey
alyzed by experts; that the history
battle areas is given, and pre-war
'itings of commanders are printed in
tail, that more adequate understand-
g of present strategy may be had.1
The reader may rest assured that
e change, like every other change
newspaper policy, is made because
e public wants that change. In
rt, the public has demanded it; in1
rt, the newspapers have experi-1
nted and the public has liked the1
periments. It is axiomatic that
wspapers print what the public1
es, otherwise they would not retain
air circulation. The best a news-
per can do if it wishes to survive
to try to present high grade news1
such manner that the public will
e it. This is done by strong news-
pers.

it
probably could not keep an audience
of bankers,; radio-telegraphers and
truck drivers still in their seats for
two minutes. It is the art-yes, art
-of a newspaper writer to so present
whatever subject falls to his lot to
write, that every newspaper reader
will be interested in it. To arouse
universal interest is the final test of
newspaper ability.
JIt may be necessary to say a word
as to the social status of the modern
newspaper reporter. His pay equals
the earnings of the average profes-
sional man-physician or attorney-
and he is received on the same plane
as other professional men. At the
close of the last school year about a
dozen graduates, men and women, ob-
tained positions on good newspapers
and nearly all of them have made
good and are glad they chose journal-
ism as their careers. The field is as
open to women as to men, and women
are not subject to the handicaps they
encounter in other professions.
REMEMBRANCE
The test of sincere devotion is re-
membrance. .By remembrance of
those who have offered themselves for
the supreme sacrifice, America honors
her heroes. Stars of gold reflect un-
selfishness and bravery, while service
flags tell of those who left comfort-
able homes to protect the flag, which
had in times of peace protected them.
A granite stone near State street
catches the attention of thousands
who pass by it, and impresses upon
them the remembrance of the class of
1862. A tall steel flag pole on the
campus flies Old Glory in honor of the
Michigan men who fought to free lit-..
tle Cuba. Today the present genera-
tion in the University owes something
to every young man who laid his books
aside and joined the army of freedom.
As in other universities throughout
the nation, students have left Michi-
gan by the hundreds to enter the var-
ious camps for training, and to these
loyal men we should be only too hap-
py to pay the debt of remembrance.
The official paper of the University
of Michigan wished to have its part in
this and so we are asking every stu-
dent to send in whatever information
he possesses as to the career in the
service, adventures on land and sea,
and present whereabouts of Michigan
men. Everyone is interested in the
doings of the men whose class num-
erals are preceded by the "ex," as a
sign of their sacrifice of a high good
for a higher one. The help of the stu-
dent body in securing thisnews is
necessary and will be appreciated.
Michigan has given much in men,
money and sacrifices of precious
things in her academic life, and will
not hesitate to give more. But while
we strain to do our part here, let us
keep in touch with the men who are
doing it elsewhere against greater
odds.
THE KHAKI BAND
The army mechanics, known official-
ly as Section B, S. A. T. C., have giv-
en the campus a material indication
of their interest in and loyality to the
University. Their band was sent on
Chief of Police O'Brien says that
an "Indian maiden" (silent patrol-
man), will soon be placed at the cor-

walk around her in circles trying to
find a place to buy a cigar.
