UNIUN MLUMI bOU IN
PAIS, SAYS BURILE
American college men in the A. E.
F., officer, doughboy, "gob," and mar-
ine all benefited alike by the work of
the American University Union, ac-
cording to Prof. Philip E. Bursley,
who has recently returned from sev-
en months of active connection with
that institution.'
Provides Advantages of Club
The Uion provided for these men
a hotel embodying practically all the
features of a modern city club. Hotel
charges were reasonable, and accom-
modations were open to all American
university men in the service and
their friends, regardless of whether
or not the institution which they had
attended was a member of the Union.
The Union also supported a can-
teen and restaurant.
Registration System Maintained
Each man who made use of the Un-
ion was asked to register and from
this registration a card index was
maintained, to iake it possible to
locate these men with ease. Besides'
being a bureau of information for
soldiers it was possible to assist
friends and relatives of men in the
service in locating persons they de-
sired to find. The index was so sys-
tematized that if one knew a man's
name and not his college it was still
possible to locate him.
When Professor Bursley began his

work in France there were some 10,000
names indexed. When he left for
home there were more than 25,000.
Work to be Continued
Activities of the Union have slack-
ened since the end of the war, but
there is still some work to be done.
Just what will become of the organiza-
tion when all troops have left France
is not definitely known, but it is pos-
sible it may be continued in some
form.

While the date for the opening of
the Victory loan campaign has .not
been set definitely as yet, it is an-
nouncedtby the Secretary of the Treas-
ury that the drive will begin about
Easter time. -
In order that the importance and
necessity of putting this great $6,000,-
000,000 loan over the top may be bet-
ter realized, a few facts taken from
the "Victory Reveille," a pamphlet is-
sued in the interest of the Govern-
ment loan workers of the seventh
Federal reserve district, are empha-
sized.
Necessity for Loan
New Year's eve, the cost of the war
to America stood at $22,000,000,000.
This money had been raised by taxa-
tion and by Liberty bond issues. Since
the middle of November the Treasury 1
has been borrowing money from the
banks at the rate of $600,000,000 every
two weeks. Before the end of the
fiscal year, June 30, four or five bil-
lion dollars will have been so ob-j
tained.
In borrowing so extensively from
the banks, business is hampered in
its normal activities because of the
lack of credit thus created.
If the Victory loan fails, business'
depression will result. If the Loan
goes over the top as previous Liber-
ty loans have done, the surplus and
savings money of the people will be
massed for immediate Government
use, business will be stabilized, en-
terprise will be encouraged, work will
bge supplied to increased numbers of
applicants. Success in the loan means
prosperity, failure means depression.
The iHgher Patriotism"
Discounting the fact that the people
must support the Victory liberty loan
as a measure of self-interest, they
should support it for the better rea-
son that they voted the bills and
must honestly pay them.
The war is won, but the natioal
honor is still at stake and must be ex-
onerated.
Court Representative to Speak

Days," which is being shown Wednes- I
day only at the Arcade theater.
The story deals with a young girl
whose only love-up to the opening
of the story-is her smart race-about
and her one mania, speed. Cupid,
however, steps in and the racing car
is sidetracked to give place to a mere
man. The story is said to move with
a rapidity which fully satisfies the
speed mania of the young heroine.
NEW LAW PERMITS
STUDENTS TO VOTE
Voting students are included in the
so-called "absent voter" law.
They may be duly registered in
their respective districts by sending
to their township or city clerk a sworn
affidavit to the effect that they are
qualified voters.
N. C. Fetter, secretary of the Uni-
versity Y. M. C. A., urges every stu-
dent to avail himself of this oppor-
tunity. "The women at Ypsilanti
Normal are being organized and we
wish to do the same thing at Michi-
gan. Student suppdrt is to be desired
in combating the amendment to the
prohibition bill from the standpoint
of votes. Their co-operation will help
to strengthen the morale of the aver-
age voter.

AT THE MAJESTIC

A vivacious girl whose father is a
vaudeville performer and, who, when
she determines to go on the stage, is
informed by a theatrical manager that
she .is perhaps the worst actress in the
world, is the central figure of "The
Hope Chest," which comes to the Maj-
estic theater 'Thursday and Friday.
The part is taken by Dorothy Gish,
sprightly Paramount star, who will
be remembered for her excellent work
in D. W. Griffith's "Hearts of the
World," and also in "Battling Jane."
At the death of her mother, Sheila
Moore is bequeathed a "hope chest"
which proves to contain only a shawl,
designed for Sheila when she is to
marry. When her theatrical hopes
are blighted, the girl goes to work in
a confectionary store, where she falls
in love with the owner's son. The
course of this love does not, however,
"run smooth," and it is only after a
series of exciting episodes that matt
ters are happily adjusted.
