STUDENTS AND STUDENT
ACTIVITIES
It has been said that the student
activities are not run by students in
the true sense of the word. If one is
a student in a university, he should
devote his time to study. That is what
he has come for and he ought not
have any time to spare for outside
work.
This is all very well, We do come
to college to learn and to study. We
hope to fit ourselves for our future,
and we think that college will give us
a good founadtion.
But study is not everything. All
learning is niot in books, and if a col-
lege man received nothing but a
bookish education he would find, upon
going out into the world, that regard-
jng certan matters he was at the hot-
tom, of 'the ladder.
It is .the friendships a man cultiv-
ates in college, it is the active interest
he takes in one enterprise or another,
some activity, that will count jtst as
much towards his future.
Of coure one may go too far and
participate in too many activities to
the detriment of his studies. Ex-
tremes are never good. But of two
students, one who does nothing but
study, and one who does not study
quite so much but has an outside
interest, the best chances are for the
latter.
Be a student first, but take part in
some activity, too.,
CERCLE FRANCAIS PLAY
TO BE LIGHT COMEDY
CAST TRYOUTS TO BE HELD THIS
WEEK; FRENCH SPEAKING
STUDENTS ELIGIBLE
"Nos Intimes," by Victoriten Sardou,
is the play which has been chosen by
the Cercle Francais to be produced
April 26 in Sarah Caswell Angell hall.
The plot is a light comedy of a
Monsieur Caussade who takes every
acquaintance as an intimate friend
and confides his secrets to them. Dr.
Tholosan acts as intermediary for his
amiable friend and the many dilemmas
in which he finds himself. An amusing
love story runs through the farce, al-
lowing plenty of opportunity for good
acting.
A list of classes in swimming is

FURNITURE COMPANY RECEIVES

bination high chair and rocker for

The, local factory at present can

Feeling among a number of stu-

more Newarkers to Michigan is need-
ed has crystallized'in the determina-
tion to form such a permanent group.
To unite all students on the campus
hailing from the eastern city in the
furtherance of this aim a meeting has
been called for 7 o'clock Saturday
evening, March 8, in Lane hall. All
Michigan students, natives of that
city, are urged to be there to help
keep up the slogan that "Newark

Just for Me
Keels have spurned the rolling wave
Just for me.
Steam has been a willing slave
Just for me.
Many mighty works of man;
Triumphs of this earthly span,
Outcomes of some spledid plan,
All have done the best they can,
Just for me.
Gods and men have bow'd their knee
Just for me.
They have vanquished land And sea,
Just for'me.
They have shackled nature fast,
Used the glories of the past,
Called upon resources vast,
Made the earth a slave at last,
Just for me.
For across the world has flown
Just for me.
Words, dear-written, yes, I own
Just for me.
All the good of every age
Smiling made itself my page
Bringing me a letter sage
Touched with friendship's gentle gage,
Just for me. J.

THOSE CLASS DUES
A little boy was sent by his mother
to mail some letters. When he re-
turned, he gave her ,the money she
had given him with which to buy the
stamps.
"But ' where did you get the
stamps?" she asked.
"Well," replied the youngster, "I
watched my chance and when no one
was looking I slipped the. letters in
the box without any stamps.''
The same logic is used by a great
many students in the matter of' their
class dues. They think that as long
as no one gets after them for not pay-
ing, there is no use of paying.
But the stamp wil have to be put
on the letter anyway, and the dues
have to be paid before graduation.
Not paying them year by year merely
postpones the time for settlement.
Your class needs the money. Pay
up.
