EIE SPIRIT OF THE FACULTY
ever the faculty of the^ Univer-
of Michigan showed it had the
Michigan spirit - the spirit to
d to duty under all circumstances
Is showing it now. The student
rshould show the same spirit.
re is great danger that the stu-
5 will lot realize that their duty
le University is to grasp and keep
y bit of Michigan spirit that the:
absorb in the course of their mil-
r and classroom instruction. Oth-
se the great blight of the profess-
1 man, the blight of mteralism,
fall upon them..
len the formation of the S. A. T.
iras proposed, it was thought by
bge men that' its purpose was pri-
[ly to instill Into young men, be-
they went to war, a desire to at-
a University, so that they would
6n after the war. Whole heartedly,
y adinistrator and faculty mem-
threw himself into the project.

3. A. T. C. is for military purposes
The University is to be used as
of those California orange grad-
to separate the perfect from the
than perfect human material; to
ate commissioned and non-com-
loned officer material, or to -pick
nen capable of being trained to do
essional stunts; to accomplish
ific re ults in war.
is plan is necessary under war
amstances. The faculty recognize
necessity and they see their high
dards of peaceful years smashedk
far, and they never so much as let;
gelid quiver. They buckle to their
duties and when they had time
ream, their dreams of re-estab-
ng the high scholastic and ethical
dards of bygone days related only
LO fture.
e student should not imagine that
. ethical and ,scholastic stand-
" have no practical, workaday im-'
nce. Any professional man, train-
a a high classv university or col-

e he acquired while at his school-
was one of the principal essent-
of whatever success he may have
ned. The schools indicate a spir-
at spurs pioneering, progress, ser-
rather than gain only. However
ping and material a professional
appear, it is safe to say he would
aich worse, were it not for the
s that seeped Into him during his
ollng.
rther, even if a man Is 'so profic-
in professional studies that the
a leaves him at the University to
i his course, he will not receive
same, broad, well-proportioned
lng that he would receive in]
a times. Then, when he enters the

lings at high speed, not to in-

fic results that will be his guid-
hought all his life.

and to preserve the desire to

.tiously to catch while here the
t of love of science and of ser-
and of service that the faculty

AMALGAMATION
ring the last three centuries, mil-c
upon millions of immigrants, or#
ims, as we may call them and as
really are, have been coming to1
rica. Coming first from royalistt
and, religiously intolerant, tot
on Plymouth rock, then from
ord-ridden Ireland, from kaiser-1
ed Germanky, from the czar's Russ-
isgoverned Italy, and the brawls
ones came these numerless disunited
pilgrims of many races.
But today the pilgrims are going
back side by side, shoulder to should-
er in united companies, wearing the
uniform of freedom, one and all Am-
ericans. Thousands are returning to
Europe all singing the same songs,
and marching under the same flag.
We see the product of the great melt-
ing pot. Yesterday they came separ-
ately; today they return inseparably.
Yesterday they came as pilgrims; to-
day they return as crusaders.-
It must be a novel experience for
the professor to get to class five min-
utes early and find his class waiting
complacently for him. Under these
circumstances, he will probably de-
cide that Sherman may have been a
bit off after all.
Now that the Russians have disap-
peared from the headlines, Austria-
Hungary obligingly steps into the va-
cancy, furnishing a melee that puts
the whole gang to the eastward to
shame.
Next to deaf and dumb language
the easiest, not to say the most popu-
lar, way to carry on a conversation
while wearing a muslin rag is by
means of the semaphore code.
If the subs don't get the latest news,
what a warm reception they will re-
ceive at their Zeebrugge "home!"

,SENIOR SOCIETY TO AID RED
CROSS AND BELGIAN RELIEF
Senior society held its first meeting
this year Thursday ight at West-
minster club. The members discuss-
ed plans for succeeding meetings and
suggested various ways of helping
:the Red Cross and Belgian relief, by
knitting squares to make a blanket,
making shirts out of stocking tops,
sewing for the Red Cross and any
other work that offers itself.
The day of meeting was changed
from Monday, as it was last year, to
Thursday and the members are look-
ing forward to making these bi-
monthly gatherings a time for draw-
ing themselves out of the shell ofj
routine and limited interest, to learn
more intimately what other girls and'
other houses besides their own are
doing.
A special meeting will be held at
lMartha Cook dormitory next Thurs-
day.

U. OF M. GRADS TO TAKE WAR
COURSE AT U. OF TORONTO
Anna M. Lloyd, '18, and Helen
Hugmphreys, '16, have volunteered
their services for reconstruction work
in the Military Schol of Orthopedic
Surgery and Physiotherapy at the
University of Toronto, Canada.
The course offered extends over a
period of four months, and is under
the direction of Captain Bott, of To-
ronto university. It includes gymna-
slum work, massage, vocational re-
construction, and the application of
mechanical appliances, and will en-
able those who take it to teach para-
lyzed muscles their accustomed
functions ,and to restore shell-shock-
ed men to useful positions in society.
While theyFrench and the English
have already been awakened to the
necessity for surgical reconstruction
work, there is only one school on this
side of the ocean where the science
of remaking broken and shapeless men
is being taught and studied. The work
at Toronto is- purely voluntary, and
those who have completed the course
are used not only in convalescent
hospitals here, but may also be sent
abroad. Permission to attend this
school may be obtained through au-
thorities in both Washington and
Canada.
Alice Lloyd, '16, Miss Lloyd's sister,
is now taking a nurse's training course
at St. Luke's hospital in New York
city.
Escaped Jail-bird Apprehended
Charles Hale, who escaped from the
county jail last Tuesday night, was
brought back yesterday afternoon. He
had been arrested at Hamberg for
vagrancy and lodged in jail at How-
ell. When questioned he told differ-
ent stories, one of them was that he
was from Toledo, and the other that
he had broken jail from some little
town. The officials became suspicious
and called up the Washtenaw county
sheriff. The turnkey and a deputy
lefa for Howell about noon and return-
ed with their man about 4 o'clock.
It has not yet been decided what
shall be done with him, but it is lia-
ble that he will be bound over to
circuit court.
Snider, '17E, Dies of Pneumoni
Wheeling, W. Va., Oct. 18.- Word
has been received of the death of
Francis McFarland Snider, Michigan
'17E, on board the United States
steamer Von Stueben as a result of
bronchial pneumonia., developing from
Spanish influenza. He enlisted in
August, 1917, and his death occurred
one day before the transport touched
the overseas port.
The rumor that IlI-kept barracks or
similar laxities in the military life of
the students' army training corps are
responsible, for either deaths or t
spread of the influenza, was officially'
denied yesterday by Capt. B. C.
Vaughan, who, as commanding physic-
ian, has charge of the training de-
tachments here. He affirmed that the
strictest surveillance is kept over the
mEen, and that all new cases
of the disease are cared for as quick-
ly as they are reported. No one who
has had illness, no matter how mild
'the form, is allowed to go on duty be-
fore ten days or two weeks have elaps-
ed. The one or two instances of viola-
tion of this rule which have occurred
have been the result of misunder-
standing on the part of the company
commanders.
Captain Vaughan stated that the
facilities for onvalescing soldiers are
of the best type possible, Ann Arbor
having opened its homes in a number
of instances to afford personal care
and cheerful atmosphere for the re-
cuperating patients. In addition to
this, and the official infirmary on In-
galls street, a new infirmary 'has been
opened on State street which will ac-
commodate a large number of men. As
the' men recover, they' are taken to the
Infirmary occupying the Michigan Un-
ion dining hall, where a doctor is in
constant attendance.
It is the physician's opinion that the
epidemic of influenza is decidedly on
the decline. Up to a late hour yes-
terday afternoon, no new cases had
been reported to: him, although a few
convalescing patients had contracted
pneumonia. He stated that the mil-
itary authorities! were doing every-
thing possible to protect the afflicted
men during the critical period immed-
lately following the influenza.
Regarding the closing of the Uni-
versity, Captain Vaughan said that it
might. have proved a very excellent
measure at the outbreak of the epi-
