Leitzinger Donnell R, Shoffner Henry Whiting II FRIDAY, JANUARY 24, 1919. Issue Editor-Ruth Dailey DOES IT PAY? "Teaching is the most poorly paid profession," is a well known state- ment of fact and one that is becoming nearly as well known is, "The Michi- gan faculty is the iost poorly paid of any university faculty." And the re- sult of this is that Michigan has great difficulty in getting and keeping men, prominent in their respective fields, on her faculty. The "big men" who do stay are those who have become so attached to the University that they will not leave for a salary consider- ation. The fact that Michigan has lost sev- eral of her best professors and is un- able to get other men really capable of taking their places is unquestion- ably regrettable to all Michigan stu- dents and alumni, and should be to the people of the state of Michigan. It lowers the standard of the Univer- sity, for although the new men may be nearily' a good, they are not widely known' and hence their names on the faculty list does not have the same significance for outsiders as did the men who were recognized authorities fn their fields. Michigan was formerly recgnized in the East as the "leading Western university," and in the West it was classed wvith Yale and Harvard. Now we are often referred to in the East as "a pretty good school," "But, of course," the speaker will add, "it hasn't the prominent men on its fac- ulty that some of the Western schools have." And the former prestige of Michigan in the West is also declin- ing. The state legislature has always been doubtful about increasing the University appropriation but in such a case as this where the University is f'n danger of being relegated to second class, they should have no hesitancy. There are thousands of alumni throughout the state who would give their hearty suport to any action designed to raise or keep up the standard of the University. And the rest of the residents of the state would have sufficient pride in the rep- utation of their state university to sanction the small additional appro- priation necessary to increase the sal- aries of its faculty. WE HOPE SO, ANYWAY Of all the- incongruities with pre- vious life that the average college men encountered in the army, two stood out as prominently as society pins on a campus celebrity. They were: Baseball and punctuality. It simply did not seem right to go to a baseball game between enlisted men at which an officer officiated. There were no shouts of "kill the umpire." It simply seemed impossible that when the commanding officer said "seven o'clock" he meant seven o'clock. Not. seven fifteen, or twenty, or thirty, or not at all, as one pleased. Service is a thing of the past. "Pip- ing times of Peace" are with us once FIRST METHODIST CHURCH Tonight at 8:0 "Ahletic Social" Stunts Music Eats Tomorrow, 7:3 P. M. "Movies" 7 Reels Pipe Organ and Singing Students Welcome. baseball was. Baiting the umpire will qualify as at least an eighth of the game. But punctuality? Shades of The Good Old Days, here's hoping that every man who was in the service will retain eternally as a legacy from Uncle Sam the habit of BEING ON TIME. A fine imitation of buying tickets to the "Follies" may be found in standing in line waiting for the elec- tion committee. And again the little blue cards and little blue books are coming in style. The Directory is coming out-yet. Junior Girls Play to Run Only Once One presentation only of the Junior girls' play will be given this year, contrary to the usual custom. Junior girls have been given permission to present the play at the Majestic thea- ter, since the crowd expected cannot be accommodated in Sarah Caswell Angell hall. The play will be given Wednesday night, April 2, directly after the supper to be given by the Women's league. The former custom of giving the play twice in Sarah Caswell Angell hall, once for the benefit of the se- niors, once for the alumni, was aban- doned this year on account of con- flict of dates. RED CROSS ORGANIZATIONS MAY ESTABLISH SCHOLARSHIPS HERE Scholarships in the new public health department of the University will be established through the county Red Cross organizations if the plans of Sidney T. Miller, of Detroit, director of the Michigan Red Cross, are suc- cessful. Letters have been sent to every chapter of the Red Cross in the state proposing that each individual chap- ter raise funds to support a scholar- ship. For the 17 weeks course, only seven and one-half of which must be spent here, the cost will be about $250 it is estimated. Mr. Miller says that the experience of the last few months with the epi- demic has demonstrated the necessity of the well trained nurse. It is sug- gested that the local chapter select a candidate from that community who will be willing to undertake the course if her expenses are paid. All applicants must be graduate nurses, registered, or senior students at some recognized training school for nurses. STATE LEAGUE OF NURSING HAS SIXTH ANNUAL MEETING The sixth annual meeting of the Michigan State League of Nursing Education was held Wednesday in Lane hall. The morning session was given over to organization and a business meeting was held. At the afternoon meeting confer- ences on child welfare, Red Cross, University extension and affiliations were held. Among the several speak- ers was Miss Minnie H. Ahrens, di- rector of the Red Cross nursing serv- ice for the central division, which in- cludes Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, aned Nebraska. In the evening, Major Reuben Peterson of the Uni- versity hospital spoke on the depart- ment of public health nursing. A feature of the day's program was an organ recital in Hill auditorium by Earl V. Moore of the University School of Music. Y" Publication .?l.eets Criticism "The Red Triangle in Peace and War" a recently published pamphlet is the answer of the Army Y. M. C. A. to the criticism which has arisen con- cerning its operationof overseas can- teens. The pamphlet states that the primary policy of the "Y" was to give free service and not free supplies. Nevertheless, the "Y" the pamphlet states, the "Y" has erected almost 2,000 huts, tents and various other buildings to'serve as home, club and church to the men, and free supplies have been distributed to the value of $1,400,000. Besides this, the soldiers have been entertained with programs by noted singers and actors and thous- ands of dollars have been spent on athletic equipment. The charge that the army "Y" has been profiteering by the operation of canteens was investigated and found false. A loss on the operation of can- teens exclusive of the soldiers stores in Great Britain amounting to $332,181 was announced the other day by E. C. Carter, chief "Y" secretary in Paris. "Bomb-proof" jobs for the army "Y" workers was another point dis- cussed in this pamphlet. This accu- sation was answered by stati'stics. Since the "Y" men went overseas with the American Expeditionary Forces nine of its workers have been killed while on duty and "9 seriously wound- ed. In the Argonne fight seven hundred "Y" secretaries were attached to the different units, all of whom remained in the war zone during the netire of- fensive. In concluding, the pamphlet says that "from the demonstrations of the soldiers one would judge that there is nothing but friendly feeling for the Y. M. C. A." r ANNUAL LUNCHEON OF WOMEN'S LEAGUE CHANGED TO DINNER A supper will be given by the Wom- en's league for all college girls and visiting alumnae at 6 o'clock Wednes- day night, April 2, at Barbour gym- nasium. It has been the custom in the past to give a luncheon immediately pre- ceding the afternoon performance of the Junior Girls' play. This year a supper will replace the luncheon, since, there is to be but one present- ation of the play and the meetings of the Schoolmasters' club, to be held here April 2, 3, 4, and 5, will occupy the day time. The date was changed from Saturday, April 5, owing to the fact that spring vacation begins April 4. Red Cross Call Nets 17 Million Statistics show that as the result of the recent Red Cross "roll call" more than 17 million persons are now membe sof that organization.

Victory Loan to be Out in Spring 'Victory Liberty Loan" is the name decided on by Secretary of the Treas- ury Carter Glass for the fifth liberty loan to be issued next spring. To bring, the victors home and to finish the work completely are the two ob- jects. It is hoped by the authorities that every patriotic citizen will either begin or continue to save so that he can buy bonds to the limit. '16 MAN, ONLY ONE OF EIGHT TO SURVIVE SHEL, RETURNS Lieut. Robert J. Snider, '16M, is in the U. S. Base hospital, No. 24, at Pittsburgh, recovering from injuries sustained at Cambrai, Oct. 3. He was inactive in England for about a year after enlisting and shortly after he had been sent across to France, the dugout in which he was stationed was hit directly by a German shell and all of the other seven occupants were instantly killed. The wounds which he sustained were numerous but the one which is keeping him in the hospital this long is a severe laceration of the left chest wall. After graduating here, Lieu- tenant Snider was a member of the medical staff at the University hos- pital. Bootleggers Given Heavy Fines Six bootleggers paid fines of $200 apiece and costs, while one of them was given a 20 day sentence, due to police vigilance Tuesday and Wednes- day. There were 434 quarts of whis- key' taken in the two raids. The li- quor, which was brought to the sher- iff's office, will be sent to the Uni- versity hospital for medicinal use. Honorary Sororities Aid Underclasses Honorary sororities att the Univer- sity of Illinois are forming a personal advisory system whereby undergrad- uate women who are specializing in certain subjects may profit from the service of upperclass girls majoring in that subject.
