Issue Edito.- L. McManis:
BUSINESS-LIKE READING
One of the great lessons that a Uni-
rsity education should teach us is to
able to read searchingly. Usually
ten we read . we take the attitude
at the printed is infallible, and
ough we may think differently from
e writer, we are afraid to disagree
cause it is down in black and white.
llege taining should erase this at-
ude.
What we should rememberis that we
yve the privilege of thinking for our-
Ives. An author may be right, or
ong. But w'e should decide for our-
Ives. College training should do this
r' us.
What we should do is to be able to
3k out the best books, and then be'
le to read them intelligently. Read-1
g a poor book is worse than wasting
ne. It is misusing it. We should
st of all get a good book to read,
en pick out the best in the book for
ture reference. The bad points
ould be relegated to thebscrap heap.
Intelligent reading is like intelligent
.ything else. Pick out the best, and
scard the poor. It's like a business.
the business of reading is conducted
ong good business-like lines, the re-
Its can be nothing but satisfactory
d uplifting.
THE CAMPUS-AND YOU.
We are going to have a "campus
autiful."
The building and grounds depart-
ent has been working for the past
onth raking the lawns, cleaning up
.bbish, trimming trees and bushes,
d doing everything in its power to
lfill the ideal of a beautiful campus.
Michigan is at a disadvantage in
is respect, because of the crowded
ndition of the college buildings
evertheless, the buildings and
'ounds department has taken what
tle space there was left for lawns,
id has succeeded in resurrecting the
mpus.
What the department has done is
ily a start. It is now up to the stu-
nts to help by not walking across
e lawns, picking at bushes, or throw-
g waste paper in any other places
:cept the receptacles at different
>ints on the campus.
It's worth. while-for you-and
Mme. Catherine Breshkovsky, "little
grandmother of the Russian revolu-
tion," who will lecture under the au-
spices of the Oratorical association
at 8 o'clock Tuesday evening, April
29, in Hill auditorium upon the sub-
ject, "Reclaiming Russia," will reveal
the manner in which the bolshevist
forces have wrought widespread ruin
and desolation in her country and will
touch upon means of restoration and
alleviation of present evils.
It is Mme. Breshkovsky's firm con-
viction that Russia, with her bound-
less resources in men and raw mate-
rials, has a most promising future In
sight, provided that the Allies aid in
reconstruction.
To Make Special Appeal
Mme. Breshkovsky will make a spe-
cial appeal for funds in behalf of
4,000,000 bereft Russian children, made
homeless orphans by the great war.
In an interview given to a represen-.
tative of the Pond Lyceum bureau,
which is managing Mme. Breshkov-
sky's present lecture tour, she said:
"My country suffers at the present
time most incredibly for the want of
the most necessary objects and mate-
rials. I am anxious to start immedi-
ately with our work of establishing
industrial settlements for the chil-
dren made orphans by the war.
Care of Children Necessary
"The future of Russia depends in
measure upon the proper education
and upbringing of these many chil-
dren. If left to take care of them-
selves as best they may, it is not im-
probable that they will create future
menace and serve to poison not only
Russian institutions, but the institu-
tions of Europe as well."
Mme. Breshkovsky believes it to
be the bounden duty of all nations
professing democratic ideals, to lend
a helping hand in order that the little
orphans may come to exert in future
years an influence for good rather than
for evil.
Campus Flag-Pole
Will Rise Soon
Wind and weather permitting, the
flag-pole should rise again in all its
glory ere many days have passed.
Word has been received from Detroit,
where the top length of the pole has
finally been secured, that it is to be
shipped Saturday or Monday at the
latest. It is already and ready to be
raised.
According to Mr. Edward C. Pardon,
superintendent of buildings and
grounds, three or four days will have
to be allowed for it to reach Ann Ar-
bor, due to frieght conditions. It will
then require three or four days to
make ready to assemble the pole, and
another day for the actual work. It
would, however, be too dangerous.,to
attempt to, raise the staff in a wind,
and it cannot be done in a rain-storm.
But at the outside, in two weeks time
the flIag should fly over the campus
again, and the diagonal should bask in
the light of the friendly campus moons,
of an evening.
SENIOR LIT OFFICERS ASK
IMMEDIATE ORDER OF CANES
A request has been made by the
senior literary officers that all senior
men order their canes before Satur-
day noon, at Wadham's on State
street. All orders must be in by that
time so that the exact number may be
ordered from the makers.
The treasurer of the senior lits will
afford every member of the class an
opportunity to pay his class dues the
first three days of next week. Defi-
nite figures as to the amount that
must be assessed each one are now be-
ing compiled.
REMARKABLE RUGS INCLUDED
IN EXHIBITION AT UNION
Elevenhundred knots to the square
inch is the record construction of a
six foot, ten inch by four foot, two
inch rug in the collection now being
exb~hib1 at the Union. Another one,
made for the Shah of Persia 50 years
c core Columbus sailed for America,
t -rve only on great state occasions,
suci as royal weddings, was finally
carr iP- to Europe by a British mer-
chant.
The art of making these rugs was a
passion with t!ie Persians and Armen-
ians in the olden days, one small rug
being the life's work of an entire fam-
ily. Secret methods of making these
masterpieces descended from family
to family and were jealously guarded,
But now this art is lost, never to be
revived.
UNPAID STUDENT
PLEDGES WANTED
Pledges amounting to more than
$5,000 for the United War Work cam-
paign remain unpaid at the present
time.
Although some of this delinquency
is due to the fact that the S. A. T. C.
disbandment caused many to leave the
University, the majority of the unpaid
pledgeswere made by students still
in school.
Since Michigan is behind in the com-
pletion of its quota fox this fund, stu-
dents are requested to make prompt
payment at Lane hall.
Engineering News
In recognition of their services on
the Michigan Technic, watch fobs have
been presented to members of the
staff who have worked on the paper
during the last two years. F. W. Par-
sons, 20E, managing editor; W. F.
Tschaeche, '20E, business manager;
and A. F. King, '20E, former advertis-
ing manager, were awarded gold fobs.
The following men were presented
bronze fobs: J. T. Dickenson, '20;E
D. W. Hunter, '21E; S. N. Lawson,
'21E; T. R. Gustafson, '21E; H. P.
Sharp, '21E; and R. K. Corwin, '21E.
Letters continue to come into the
engineering college offering positions
to members of the graduating class.
A letter of this type has recently been
received from the Four Wheel Drive
Automobile company of Clintonville,
Wis., requesting applications from
men desiring to enter the engineering
salesmanship field. Copies of the let-
ter have been posted on the various
bulletin boards in the Engineering
building.
Stiles Curtis Smith, ex-'19E, return-
ed to the University for a short visit
Friday. He expects to resume his work
in the engineering college, next fall.
The total number of students, at-
tending the Colleges of Engineering
and Architecture, is 1,270. This is
about the average attendance during
the second semester, but during the
first semester the attendance usually
is, about 1,500. This difference in the
two semesters is due to the fact that
many students drop out.
Tennis courts are ready for use and
girls who have signed up to enter the
tennis tournament are advised to be-
gin practice as soon as possible. Girls
may find out who their opponents are
by calling Emma Riggs, '19.
Girls interested in doing summer
club work under the auspices of the
Y. W. C. A. will meet in Barbour gym-
nasium at 4 o'clock Monday after-
noon. Lois Defries, '21, Floribel El-
lis, '20, and Emily Loman, '19, will
address the meeting.
Junior baseball practice will be held
at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon on
Palmer field. Regular attendance is
imporant, although the season is far
advanced, since no practices have
been held, on account of the weather.
A 10-mile hike to Ypsilanti will be
taken Saturday afternoon. The hik-
ers will meet at 1 o'clock Saturday
afternoon at Barbour gymnasium. All
girls should bring lunches with them.
Iota Sigma Pi meeting at 1:15 to-
day. Room 303 Chemistry building.
Michigan Dames Meet Monday Evening
The regular fortnightly meeting of
the Michigan Dames will be held next
