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 posted in Barbour gymnasium. Eight members are allowed to a class. Girls may register by signing the schedule posted in Barbour gymnasium.

FURNITURE COMPANY RECEIVES CONTRACT FOR TOTAL OUTPUT Another boom in the city's manu- facturing progress was reported Thursday when the Ann Arbor Furni- ture company accepted a contract to supply a large retail house with their entire output of "Baby Grand" com- bination high chair and rocker for an indefinite period of time. The, local factory at present can turn out 100 chairs a day but plans for the enlargement of the factory are already under way. You will :,ways flnd satistactilon by adveritsing in the Daily. --Adv. Boost Michigan Says Newarkers THE "STANDARD Stands Alone When purchasing a New Jersey Bring City Students Plan More Students to Ann Arbor to Loose Leaf Note Book Feeling among a number of stu- dents from Newark, N. J., that a per- manent organization for bringing, 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 Knows How." 1161 SCHOOL TO DEBATE WITH LANSING FRIDAY "Minimum Wage" will be the sub- ject to be debated tonight by the Ann' Arbor high school team and a trio from Lansing high school. The con- test will be held at 7:15 o'clock in Pattengill auditorium of the school. Mr. J. E. Thornton, Instructor of Eng- lish in the University, has been coach- ing the local team. Ann Arbor's negative team is de-' bating the same issue at Lansing with the affirmative team of that school.} Advertise in The Daily.-Ady. dqyn't stop short of the "Standard"-- It positively has no equal-Ail sizes, and everyone guaranteed.

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. Historians will probably entitle the chapter dealing with the contro- versy between the Irish and Lloyd George, "Bricks and Brains."
