FREDERICK L. EELER DIES OF HEART DISEASE AT HOSPITAL THE JUNIOR HOP COMMITTEE Frederick L. Keeler, 47 years of age, state superintendent of public instruc- tion, died yesterday morning at St. Joseph's sanitarium in Ann Arbor, as the result of a prolonged attack of heart trouble. Attending physicians were aware of the seriousness of his condition, they: say, but did not anticipate his death so suddenly. Superintendent Keeler had spent the past few months in the southern part of the country, in hopes of regaining his health, and had re- turned to Michigan to attend educa- tional meetings being held here. He was a candidate for re-election to the office which he held at the time of his death, and his name appears sn' the ballots of the election to be held Monday. A widow and two children survive him. His late residence was in the capital of the state. One daughter, Miss Marion E. Keeler, is a student in the University, residing at Martha Cook dormitory.

OF 1., CUSTOMS STREN THENED EACH YEAR (By Pem Har11 As early as 1841 when the Univer- sity of Michigan was formally in- augurated and the original freshmen class of six verdants matriculated, the institution began to acquire a distinct individuality. One by one certain cus- toms and precedents were established which came to constitute the category aofvenerated traditions, crystallied in fthat characteristic trend of thought, expression, and purpose - Michigan -Spirit. Although necessarily neglected dur- ing the time of war, the more typical and well established customs are again observed and are surviving the period of transition and change. The more serious traditions are returning in- tact, the more frivolous slightly al- tered. Michigan spirit is still pres- ent, broadened and dignified in pro- portion to the extraordinary and grave individual experience of the past two years. Scholarships, Accepted Cati Viewing scholastic supremacy as the ever accepted goal about which all traditions have been woven, there is now preserved in these old customs and precedents a rather complete cat- alogue of the developed ideals of the University. Anyone who has been in Ann Ar- bor in early June and has witnessed the night at Observatory hollow when the big bonfire illuminates the wind- ing line of yearlings being transform- ed into sophomores, has seen and felt the most impressive of all Michigan traditions - Cap Night. The splendid fellowship displayed on this occasion combined with the annual swingout and class sings of the parting seniors may be taken as examples of a loyal comradrie just as the devout impres- sivenessof the great convocations may be said to typify Michigan in a mood of reverence and dignity. Such concrete representations as the Union, the Student council, and other timely and active campus organiza- tions show the ever present spirit of - progress and democracy which has it-_ self become traditional. Activities Numerous The recognized need of some re- laxation from steady application to academic pursuits and the subsequent adoption of an athletic program, pub- lications, the Union opera, and even the J-Hop itself, all now traditional, denote a broad and well balanced standard. The monster mass meetings, the spring and fall game, Black Fridays, the code of laws for freshmen, and countless other of the customs that are commonly brought to mind by the word "traditions," serve or have serv- ed their varied purposes. They are constantly changing in some degree to meet new needs with the specific aim of uniting more firmly that great body of students already so well suited for a natural unity. In this manner present Michigan Spirit is constantly stimulated and to Michigan's future are handed down the most striking opinions, doctrines, and practices of Michigan's past. Eighty per cent of the guests in 1916 came from the state of Michigan. Take this Prescription to The Sugden Drug Comfpally You will know it is filled correctly.
