"I'LL MEET YOU AT SIX"
"So long," says your friend, "I'll
meet you at six."
Whereupon your mind goes through
a process somewhatasfollows:
He said six, he therefore means
six-ten, for he will of course, be late.
Still, he might be later. I'll fool him
and ge~t there at six-fifteen.
It's just as easy to have the "prompt"
But even then you are wrong, for
he outguesses you and doesn't appear
until sx-tenty.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you
have wasted twenty minutes by be-
ing a member of the "late" club, for
this is the University-the training
ground for future life to te sure-
and in the University punctuality is
the, exception that proves the rule.
ff you don't believe this, see how
many get to an eight o'clock by eight
o'clock. -
. It is a bit incongruous though when
you realize we are admittedly forming
our habits now for the time when we
are out in "the wide, wide world."
None of us expects to continue tardi-
ness when he enters business. Why
support the "late" habit?
It's just as easy to be in earn-
est when you say "I'll be there at
six."
And it's a lot more efficient.-Re-
printed from The Daily.
Maj.-Gen. Joseph T. Dickman, com-
mander of the army of occupation,
has been decorated as commander of
the order Leopold I of Belgium. We
are anxious to know how the citizens
of Wapakoneta, somewhere in Ohio,
will receive this news.
A man's house is his castle and
rnto such a castle can be brought
liquor, - ruled the supreme court of
Michigan. The question now arises,
do the air castles of park loafers come
under the same ruling.
It has been suggested that the Or-
der of Schnapps of the Seventeenth
Class should be conferred upon the in-
dividual who struck such a crashing
blow "for life, liberty and the pursuit
of drinking in Michigan."
The presence of the Reds in Berlin
effected color-blindness on the part of
the kaisor, it Is said. But how about
the presence of the blues in Hol-
land?
We wonder if the beer brokers of To-
ledo will water their stock?

If you think it is easy to do this
Inventing of humor and wit
Just load up your trusty self filler
And try it yourself for a bit,
For a wheeze has your heart's blood
on it,
A rhyme the sweat of your brow,
The sickest joke is an unpadded yoke,
Even worse, as you may allow,
So don't grind an axe for the drool-
smithI
Or hope he is thrown in the lake,
Chortle a bit if he don't make a hit,
Laugh brother, for courtesy's sake.
Another reason for the name of this
column. We are liable to lose our
head any minute.
The meanest man in the world is
the one who borrows your fancy vest
and orders grapefruit.
Milions
The Chicago Tribune is collecting
old jokes and paying real money for
them. Think how much the Gargoyle
would be worth.
Avaunt Materialist
It was the Senior Engineer who
asked if Carlyle's Essay on Burns
was a Medical treatise. A few mo-
ments later he asked if Archangel
was one of Noah's daughters.
Tickets for the annual banquet to
be given tonight by the Women's Ath-
letic association are on sale at Bar-
bour gymnasium. Tickets for the
cotillion may be procured there free

Dr. Eleanor Bertine will lecturI att
4 o'clock this afternoon in Sarah Cas-
well Angell hall. The subject of her
lecture will be "Social Morality." This
is the last of a series of lectures giv-
en by Dr. Bertine on this subject.
Girls are needed at the University
hospital to write letters for the pat-
lents, and to read to them. For furth-
er information, call Miss HuldahI
Bancroft at Barbour gymnasium.
Dean Myra B. Jordan will not be
at home Tuesday afternoon.
No basketball practice will be held
today.
Miss Dailey Ill at Contagious Hospitalj
Ruth Dailey, '19, is at the contagious3
hospital, suffering with a slight attack
of mumps.
PHYSICS CLASSES
SHOW BIG INCREASE
Over 100 more students are tak-
ing courses in physics this semester,
than there were two years ago, be
fore the war. The total enrollment in
the physics department is practically
700; a hundred more than the depart-
ment thought would take the course.
This has made necessary the es-
i tablishment of more classes and lab-
oratory sections. It is probable that
more instructors will have to be se-
cured. This is an unusual record for
the department.
Classes have been somewhat up-
set because of this record enrollment,
and only organization has been ac-
complished this week. The physics
instructors expect the department to
be going at full swing by the early
part of next week.
Announces Engagement
Announcement of the engagement of
Chester C. Chopp, '19, to Miss Gladys
Hungerford, of Muskegon, was made
this week. Chopp is a member of Al-
pha Sigma Phi fraternity.
Those who advertise in The Mich-
igan Daily cater to ALL Michigan

Curtain.
Our Daily Novelette
The sky was overcastile and the
good ship Nelly Bly was foundering
in a lather of waves off the coast of
Toledo.
"We can't swim for the waves
Woodbury us," said the first mate.
"The Naptha launch is on the blink
and it appears as if the Colgates of
paradise were in store for us."
"We are crossing the bar," shouted
the captain but Williams will stick for
there's a Life Buoy ahead."
Then the cook appeared from the
hold with a bit of Ivory. Ha, it Floats.
The whole crew immediately pro-
ceeded to wash themselves ashore.
Famous Closing Lines
"Roll your own," said the father
as he pushed the twins about the
block in the perambulator.
