The great war did not put an end to the world's misery, although it may have relieved our own particular present share of .it. And the duty of helping the other fellow, no matter how far away or different from ourselves he may be, is as urgent and as worth while in the performance as ever, and, like washing one's face, it cannot be done once and for all. We of the University of Michigan have celebrated the close of the world tragedy with noise and jubilation and feelings of thankfulness. We are go- ing back to the life we love, the Uni- versity of the old days, instead of try- ing to live the impossible dual exist- ence of the student-soldier. We and our families are planning the biggest and merriest home-coming we have known in years, and there will be no end of fellowship and gen- erosity and Christmas self-forgetful- ness-among ourselves. We are tell- ing ourselves that we wouldlike to extend our happiness to the whole world. Now comes the Red Cross and offers to make real what would oth-' erwise be a passing emotion of bene- ficence. Will we, Michigan students, by shortsightedness or carelessness, fail to take the chance when it comes to us, 'to help put a little of Christ- mas into every day of the year for the needy of the world? We are not true Michigan men and women if we do. They tell us that the German White Book is to be published in two or three volumes. Experience with the Mich- iganensian leads us to expect not more than one, however. Repairing fraternity houses and lawns demonstrates that there was no truth in the rumor that S. A. T. C. stood for Saturday Afternoon Tea Club. Eci or FEdi1tor Edito: Editor Editor Editor Editor editor id A. Gaines.....Advertising' Manager L. Abele.......Publication Manager . M.

M. C. A. at the hospital under the shadows of King's college, Cambridge, where vounded men from France are treated. In one ward certain of the patexns who have had very serious, septic wounds are having the water treatment. To look at these men one night think they were lying comfortably in ben propped up with pillows. They are really sitting in bath tubs in wat- er to their waists. A constant stream of water with a temperature of niney- eight is kept running through the tub, purifying and cleansing the wounds, which have no oter dressing. A kind or magnified lap-board covers the top of the tub, and is min turn co- Bred by a long, bright p atch quit. And thereth m >en sit on air cushon leaning against air pillo es, da a: night, sometimcs for-weeks at a time. Only the most serious cases are put into these baths, n:en who otherwise have little chance of recovery and none without the amputation of a limb. But never yet has a case so treated been lost. "It's beastly unconiforable the first week," said the record case of the ward, a British Toninmy who was for 11 weeks in the bath. -"Your ls ache, and you have the jyiatr rush. But in a week, at most, you get over that, and then it is imore comfort- able than being in bed. In fact, after they put you back in bed you can't sleep for a while, it's so hard. The American Y. 2l. C. A. has been sending these men "movies" twice a week. A screen has been arranged at one end of the hut and there all the screen favorities play their parts while the men sit comfortably in their warm tubs And when the show is over all they have to do is to turn out the lights and go to sleep. T. W. C. A. WILL NOT VA C A T E1 llAmRiOLR (T M UNTIL 1919 It was decided yesterday that the Unversity Y. W. C. A. will remain at Barbour gymnasium the rest of this year. The expense of moving would be considerable, and the two N omen's organizations have worked so well together the past months, giv- ing mutual support, that it was deem- ed advisable, if not better, for the Y. W. C. A. to remain where it is. The space in the gymnasium that the Y is .occupying is not needed for other purposes at present and the location has been exceedingly satisfactory. There will be no lunch room con- nected with the Y. W. C. A., the Inn at Lane hall serving that purpose. It is under the direction of the S. C. A. and is open to both men and women. When the Y inn- was moved from Newberry to Lane hall last summer it increased its function and the of- ficers of the University Y. W. C. A. think it unnecessary to have another one at Barbour gymnasium. O)FFICERS TO LEAVE WIIE l ALL DISCHARGES ARE CHECKED OFF No orders relating to the discharge of the S. A. T.

Praft Boards Assist Returned SoldIersl Annapolis, Md., Dec. 17.-Local anid district draft boards will maintain informal organizations after Jan. 1, 1919, to assist employment bureaus in seeking work for returned soldiers, Secretary Baker )said in an address today at the governors' cenference here.

A. T. C. I !n the opinion of many the S. A. ''. C. was more or less of a failure, while in that of perhaps as many others, it was a success And a suc- cess it was, in that it accomplished its purpose, which, according to a letter from the war department, was to allow college students to continue their scholastic work and at the same tine prepare themselves along mili- tary lines, so that they would be ready when needed by the government, and tl- supply officer material. The last of these it did without question, as many men had left for -olicers' training camps and were do- ing the work very creditably. Others had already been chosen, in fact, were all ready to leave for such camps, when the armistice was signed. In addition there were many who would have been recommended for later camps. As to whether the men, were able to continue their scholastic work there is some questin. Undoubtedly, at first men were cmpelled to miss a large number of their classes, but this was due more to the influenza epidemic than to the military organi- zation. As the epidemic subsided and arrangements to fit the new condi- tions were made, the absences from classes diminished and more time for study was allowed. After Influenza disappearedthe work of the S. A. T. C adcome to coincide well enough with the academic so that it was sel- dom, necessary for a man to miss glasses more than once in 10 days, and it was usually possible for him to attend part of his classes even on that day. Whpn the compulsory study rule went into effect, men did not com- plain of too little time to study, but too much. Even for four or five weeks before this the men had sufficient time during the day to themselves to prepare their scholastic work if they !0 "hoie. It was even demonstrated by cer- tan men in the S. A. T. C. it was possible, if one had suf Icient desire, to keep up with college work and not neglect military duties. Now that the men are discharged most of them agree that they are at least glad to haye gone through the experience and will always look back upon the time spent in the S. A. T. C. with pleasant memories. As a permanent institution, it is clear that the S. A. T. C. idea is an impossible one, but in an emergency it served its purpose. THE CHRISTMAS ROLL CALL With the slogan of "All you need is a heart and a dollar" the Red Cross begins today its Christmas Roll Call campaign. Some time before you go home you are going to be asked to join this organization, which more than any other has alleviated the hor- rors and suffering caused by the great war. Perhaps you have joined the Red Cross before, and perhaps you have supported it generously by con- tributions while the war was on, but your mxership may have run out, Grand Duchess Anastasie of Meck- lenburg-Schwerin says that Germnany blundered. Now the kaiser is sure to commit suicide. Better make those payments on your bonds. Then when you read the announcements of the fifth loan you "won't be bothered." SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA TO BE ORGANIZED AFTER VACATION Efforts will be made to' re-estab- lish the Symphony orchestra imme- diately after the Christmas holidays. This is not a strictly student organi- zation, since any person in any way connected with the University may secure a place in it if they have the requisite ability., Students who wish to try out for it should bring their instruments with them after the holidays as a call will be made for material directly upon the re-opening of the University. The symphony orchestra, along with many other activities, had to be abandoned this fall because of war time conditions. Now that things are more normal those who had it in charge . in former years believe that it can be successfully organized again. In former years it has made success- ful appearances at the twilight con- certs of the School of Music. Former Botany Instructor Here Dr. A. H. W. Povah, former in- structor in the botany department of the University and now assistant pro- fessor of forest-botany in New York I State College of Forestry at Syra- cuse, spent yesterday in Ann Arbor.
