TREAT PLAN UP TO GIRLS
MEN FEAR BEING CONSIDERED
PIKERS; FALSE PRIDE HINDERS
SAYS STUDENT.
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
The writer was pleased to read re-
cently in The Daily, that the, price of
a ticket or the location of a seat at
a show, was immaterial to our fair
co-eds. If this statement represents
the opinion of the majority of the
girls, it certainly is an encouraging
sign. The experience of many of the
men would hardly bear out this state-
ment. If both parties could be brought
to view the matter sensibly and avoid
all false pride about the expense of
entertainments, it would make our
social life far more enjoyable.
I for one am sure that the men are
more than willing to meet the girls
half way on this matter, but have been
prevented from doing so, largely by
false pride and fear of being thought
of as a "piker." It is up to the girls
to right the matter by discouraging
useless extravagance.

THE PERSONAL ELEMENT
If a student were to meet a profes-
or on a train, and in the course of
n hour's ride or so the professor
hould happen to discourse on the
Ibject in which he is an authorty,:
ae student would probably feel high-
The Guillotine
Isles of Greece! Isles of Greece!
Where burning Sapho loved and sung,
Where grew the arts of war and
peace,
Where Delos rose and Phoebus
sprung,
Eternal summer gilds them yet
But all except their sun is set.
You have as yet your Phyrric dance
Where is your Phyrric phalanx gone?
Of two such lessons why forget
The nobler and the manlier one,
And, Oh Greece, must thy lyre divine
Degenerate into hands like mine?
-LORD BYRON.
No, dear reader, this is not a lunch
room epic.
Today the Senior Engineer asked us
if Lars Porsena was king of Sweden.
Yesterday with our own eyes we be-
held a co-ed inside an honest to gosh
pair of rubber boots. We told a
friend about it but he said that he
saw one with a diving helmet. How-
ever, we think that was a lie.

*Instructor's Note-(We ave ten
thousand dollars' worth of govern-
ment trick navy insurance and need
every bit of it.)
One thousand dollars was loaned
to nine girls at the meeting of the
committee on loan scholarships, held
Monday in the office of President H.
B. Hutchins. Scholarships are still
available. Other girls who need finan-
cial aid should apply to Dean Myra B.
Jordan immediately.
The loans varied in amount from
$50 to $200. All the applicants were
seniors with' the exception of one, a
junior. The loans do not bear intei'-
est until the date of maturity, which
is in most cases a year after gradu-
ation.r-

ly honored that he had been .able to
be a listener. He would most likely
repeat his experience to his Yellow-
students with pride and self-satisfac-
tion, and a feeling that his store of
knowledge had been vastly increased.
"Why, Professor So-and-So told me
bimself that-" and the' story would
be reheated again and again, with evi-
lent gusto on the part of the narra-
tor, and equally evident relish on the
part of the listeners.
But this same lecture given in the
classroom, in a regular course of lec-
;ures, would simply be classed as
something on which notes had to be
aken, in order that quizzes may suc-
cessfully be passed in the future. The
personal element is lacking, and the
lecture becomes merely a part of the
lay's work.
If a student would consider that
he personal element is present even
n the classroom, if he would make
himself believe that the professor is
alking directly to him, and not vague-
y to the world pt large, he would get
nuch more out of the lecture, the
ourse would become more interesting
Lnd alive, and both the professor and
he student would be more satisfied
with each other.

Births Lead Deaths In Clerk's Record
According to the city clerk's record
for the month of February the city's
population is on the increase, the
month's births and deaths list show-
ing 54 births and 42 deaths. These
records cannot be taken as a fair cen-
sus as they include the University
hospitals list.

home. It was beautiful both
314 S. State St.
Ann Arbor
:utside and in, and it was admired by
a great many people. Some of the
people liked the home so well that
they asked the owner if he would let
them live in it for a time, and be-
ing a generous sort of person, he said
he would.
So they came to live with him and
share his beautiful house and all the
things it contained. They liked the
furnishings, so they went about de-
facing them in various ways.
One would write his name on some
painting that he thought wi. espe-
eially good; another would play
Iuoits with the Victrola records b' -
cause he liked them so well; anothe
carved his initials on the grand piano,:
o show his appreciation of the won-
derful music it was capable of pro-
lucing.
Impossible, you say? Absurd? One
wouldn't do those things? Just go over
o the library any time and look over
some of the books that have the im-
prints of the reader's own person-
ality stamped upon them.
