USE THE FRANCHISE
Michigan women are exercising the
mple.te franchise for the first time
is year. Already the fact that only
lout five hundred women have reg-
tered in Detroit is being cited as
.gnificant. All eyes are on the new
pters and the indifference so confid-
atly expected by mild anti-suffragists
rid hoped for by violent ones seems to
e holding, full sway.
Comparatively few University stu-
ants can vote. Age and citizenship
a other states are the two chief bar-
ers. But those, both men and wom-
a, who have reached their majority
ad who can possibly get to their
ames, should feel their responsibility
ad not allow carelessness or procras-
nation to deprive themn of their priv-
eges. Registration for the primaries
ust be made before Feb. 11 and for
te election before March 5. If you
>end this winter in the expectoation
voting in the spring, you will grow
irprisingly intelligent concerning:
io issues involved, and you will de-
elop a sense of citizenship without
hich no person, however loaded with
agrees, is fully educated.
TO THE THOUGHTLESS
In spite of war an unusual amount
building has been going forward on
id about the campus this year and
te natural consequence is that "the
Impus beautiful" is a merry quip in-
ead of the ideal it should be. The
amense amount of labor and its at-
ndant disorder, necessary in the
ilding of the new Library at the
art of the campus, have given the
hole exterior of the University an air
incompleteness and confusion. The
mporary buildings put up to meet
ie war needs may have added great-
to the efficiency of war-time Mich-
an, but they cannot be said to in-
mease ,the picturesqueness or respose
t the campus in days of peace. Per-
tps these outward disarrangements
ere not inappropriate to the days of
renuous effort and mushroom change
.rough which we have passed, but
e are now entering upon an era of
ower, more natural, growth and as
>on as possible the physical as well
the spiritual scars of war should
sal.
The fact that much confusion and
isightliness have been unavoidable
as had a tendency to make students
tireless. Since the ground about the
ibrary has been a mass of heaped
ibbish and material, the habit of cut-
ng through it has done no particular
Irm, but there are other parts .of the
tmpus where the extension of this
abit is ruining the sod with irregular
ad unnecessary paths. Heels sharp
id otherwise are getting a vast deal
damage done in this warm weather
hen there would be a January thaw
there were anything to thaw. ,An-
hr evidence ofrheedlessness is con
ained in a report from the magazine

show a spirit which should be below
the level of the University man or
woman.
During the war it was America first,
so much so that the lesser rights of
the University were gladly neglected.
But there need be no slacking of pa-
triotic or world interest, because we
once more strive our utmost to make
the University and its surroundings
what they should-be.

The S. A. T. C. didn't get a chance

12, was the anniversary o t o u Ohern
Michigan's "big" cold wave of last

to 13 degrees below zero. That cold

News! Here's Tip
For The Tipplers
The county jail has entered upon
a period of renaissance and reforma-
tion.
This bald statement may seem as
improbable as the presence of elec-
tric fans at the North pole, but it is,
nevertheless, a true and trustworthy
statement, made by an impartial ob-
server after careful inspection of that
institution from the correct stand-
point with respect to the bars.
Indeed, so great is the change in
the formerly much respected and
highly avoided county cooler, that the
forthcoming revelations in this article
may divert many customers from the
local polic channels, and cause a
shifting of the crime center from Ann
Arbor to the surrounding country,
where the sheriff and his deputies
convey the wayward ones to the very
acceptable quarters on Ann St., W.
But to business.
The happy guest In the Washtenaw
county grilled reception rooms fares
on the following menu: stew or po-
tatoes and meat, rice, vegetables,
bread, and coffee au matin, tea a la
unit. Nay, more: he is forced to suf-
fer neither the bovine sameness of
butter, nor the beety grind of com-
I mon sugar: in place of ,both he is pro-
vided with a delicious novelty in the
form of a high concentrationof pure
molasses.
The reception room, lobby, or ro-
tunda has suffered, or rather gain-
ed, a quite marvelous transforma-
tion. There is steam heat of the high-
est quality, unimpeachable electric
light, businesslike calendar instead of
struggle-on-the-cliff lithograph, un-
carved desk with blotter, and a pleas-
ant deputy, telephone for convenience
of importunate seekers of bond and
bail, excellent oak chairs for the
escorted customers. The only un-
pleasant fixtures are the keys to the
bedrooms, carried to your door with
a personal serviceunequaled at the
Ritz. They. are sizable keys, well
suited to billy duty if need be.
The sheriff has a very definite pro-
gram: "Strict enforcement of the
law and economical, adinistration
for the benefit of the county."
Twelve guests, secured at no end of
pains, are now enjoying the facilities
as a result of stretching out that
epochal date, May 1, 1918, and finding
that it snapped.
NOTED PREACHER TO LECTURE
AT FIRfT METHODIST CHURICH
Dr. Lynn H. Hough, a noted college
preacher and professor in the Gar-
rett Biblical institute at Evanston,
Ill., will speak at the next Wesleyan
Guild lecture to be held Jan. 26, in

Speaking Peoples and the Future of
the World."
Doctor Hough, who has spoken here

popularity among the college students.
Last September he was sent on a spe-
cial mission to England, where he lec-
tured in practically all of the large
cities.

ROADS IN COUNTY
BEING IMPROVED
The travelling of Packard street for
four and a half miles between this city
and Ypsilanti which was completed
recently finished the second improved
road between the two cities. Two and
a half miles af asphalt pavement will
be built shortly outside of the city
Huron avenue.
The county road commissioners
built 19 miles of gravel roads and'five
miles of pavement during the year of
1918. Many stretches of road are to
be built next year including a two mile
stretch from Whitmore Lake south to-
ward this city. This improvement will
complete an excellent drive between
this city and the lake.
Roads built in the county during
last year cost $190,000 of the county
good roads fund, while $65,000 of state
award money was also used.
ARCHITECTURAL CLASS GOES

liam H. Goodyear of the Museum of
