mess hall: "Some Little Bug Will Get
You Some Day."
She Really Likes
the Weather Here
With a happy smile on her youthful
face, her coal black eyes sparkling
with the joy of being alive, her
shapely head nodding blithely with
every step she went across the cam-
pus on the long diagonal walk. It
was raining like it has been known to
do here in Ann Arbor,-pitilessly, ab-
solutely regardless of the guarantee
that comes with our pet rain-coat,
and forming the most annoying pud-
dles imaginable on the walks.
Other living creatures passed her
by in a hurry, anxious to get in out of
the wet. She was dressed in white,
and wore no hat, while all who passed
her were attired in the customary
galoshes, and other dehydrating arti-
cles of clothing.
We did not dare to speak to her,
for her regal manner rather led us
to .believe that a very chilly reception
would meet such impertinence. Be
that as it may, we concluded from her
general manner that she was enjoy-
ing Ann Arbor's special brand of hand
picked weather.,
But she was a duck!
LIEUT. TAYLOR, EX-'18, PLANS
TO RETURN NEXT SEMESTER
Lieut. James M. Taylor, ex-'18, who
has just received his discharge from
the army, is visiting in Ann Arbor,
and states that he will return to the
University next semester to continue
his work. Lieutenant Taylor enlist-
ed in the American ambulance service
some time ago, and was immediately
sent to France. After six months'
service there, he was given permis-
sion to return to this country in or-
der thatrhe mighttenter the ofcers'
training school. He recently received
his commission at Camp Dodge, Iowa.
Urge S. A. T. C Men to Remain at Ill.
University of Illinois has launched
a 'Come Back" movement to bring
those men in the S. A. T. C. back to
Illinois next semester. Mass meetings
are being held for this purpose and
pamphlets, posters, and newspaper
publicity assail the student-soldier at
every hand. Deans of the various
colleges have arranged to be on duty
at specified times, when they will
talk over things with any prospective
or actual registrant in their colleges.

THE R. O. T. C. QUESTION
"Are you in favor of an R. o. T. C.
at Michigan?" we asked the junior
who Is waiting to be mustered out of
the student army. "Yes," he answered,
"for the other fellow."
Then he outlined all the good rea-
sons why there should be an R. 0.
T. C. at Michigan: other universities
have them and Michigan should not be
behind; there may some time be an-
other war and Michigan should be
prepared; college students need phy-
sical exercise and don't take it of their
own accord; the discipline develops
character; a system making the drill
uompuisory and withholding semester
credit until it was completed satis-
factorily would avert a failure such
as the corps was here last year. All
these reasons and more why the next
generation of students should drill
were on his tongue's end, but as for
himself, "Well, this army stuff makes
me antagonistic," he confessed.
This is the situation at Michigan,
even among the men who theoretically
believe in military training and lots
of it. And there are vast numbers of
those whose convictions as well as
feelings cause them to want prepara-
tion for peace instead of for war. If
war ever comes again, Michigan will
be as quick to respond, as loyal to
serve, as eager to do her full part
and more, as she has been in this war.
There has been no dearth of brave and
effective sons of Michigan in the
trenches, on the seas, and in the air,
Sspite of the fact that Michigan men
did nt spend their energies on squads
right during the years preceding the
war. And there never will be.
And now all the strength of the
student body needs to be turned to the
tasks of reconstruction and citizen-
ship. Michigan will not be behind
other universities if she does not di-
veort some of her vitality to military
preparation as they are planning to
do; she will be ahead. 'Militarism
even in mild forms is going out of
date. Minds must be developed as
well as bodies, cultural as well as
practical truths must be learned, and
the present eagerness to get out of the
army and back into civilian life and
the "good old days" is an evidence
that the student body realizes the call
of the times and will only be hamper-
ed by 'military training. Michigan
men, consciously or unconsciously,
want to prepare for peace.
' It needn't surprise anyone if Colonel
Roosevelt should turn out to be quite
a writer. The Inlander, student lit-
erary publication at Ann Arbor, has
accepted a short contribution of his
for the Christmas number.-Wolver-
ines.
If the hop is postponed until after
the second semester begins, those blue
book blues will reign supreme after
Christmas vacation.
The fighting S. A. T. C. lads all got
shot in the arm in the last battle at
the health service anyway.

As Matilda Landers in "Good Night
Paul," Constance Talmadge adds to
another of her now famous character-
izations of screen heroines. She bub-
bles over with infectious enthusiasm,
independence, charm, and youthful-
ness. This star is rapidly making a
type of' these comedy dramas, with
humor predominating. There are
plenty of laughs heightened, now and
then, by a moment of suspense or a
thrilling situation.
Plan Peace Problem Oourse at Iowa
During the next two terms the de-
partments of history and economics,
sociology and commerce at the Uni-
versity of Iowa will offer jointly a
two hour course in problems of peace
