SPIRIT VERSUS INCLINATION
This week-end a large percentage of students
migrated to parts unknown-probably Detroit or
its near vicinity. This general exodus caused a no-
ticeable lull and a prevailing quietude that dead-
ens everything. It may not seem a queer thing-
that students h-ike to get away. Bpt in a sense it
is peculiar because Michigan offers a variety of op-
portunities for activity over the week-end.
These may not compare in one way to the at-
tractions of the outer world, but they are surely
elements of a good time; and it is quite possible
that a fey years from now you and I will look back
and remember rhost clearly some simple, idle event
that occurred at some spare moment. Spare min-
utes are often the most impressive minutes. Those
things that appear to be only passing phases are
really atmosphere-the vital, breathing part ©f col-
lege life. Why make. the university just a work-
shop? Why not spend the play time there too?
There are many other, reasons for disobeying
your inclinations of course, which sound half se-I
rious, half humorous. You may have some little
studying to do, and it is surprising how time away'
from the university environment is genuinely
wasted. The man who does part of that necessary
work over week-ends has more chance to devote
himself to activities outside the prescribed curri-
culum, during the week. If he rests a little over
Sunday he is saner and more alert to the matters
that arise and to which he can put his hand: Only
a .few exceptional people can burn the candle at
both ends.
The interested man is exerting himself alongj
lines which he will never regret-can never regret.
While he who flees college at the slightest chance is
apt to wonder at the end of the year, where all
his time and. money have gone, and what schooling
amounts to anyway.
Prof. David Friday declares that the cry about
"the poordown trodden farmer" is all a myth.
What about the poor, down-trodden landlady, pro-
fessor?
Ann Arbor's local informs us that the Episcopa-
lian convention in Detroit will revise the Ten Com-
mandments. Let's hope that they escape the fate
of Wilson's Vourteen Points.
Have you answered the question in the opening
sentence of the Michigan Union book, "Will You
Do It?" which says "Did you come to college this
fall to be a knocker or a booster?"
There is only one Maize and Blue for Michigan
students.

tickets are left In the last, rows of

Russell Carter, head of the public
school nmusic department, will address
the Michigan State association Oct.

The attendance at the University
School of Music is the greatest this
year in Its history. The enrollment
is 60 per cent greater than that of
last year. It is estimated that the en-
re enrolmen for the year Includ-
ing the Summer session will reach
the 700 mark. To provide ample fa-
cilities it has been necessary to re-
sume the operation pf the annex.
Mail orders for the Extra Concert
series are being filed in the order
o freceipt. Prices for dhe series will
be, $3.50, $3.00, $2.50, and $2.00. These
course tickets are cheaper than the
other series because they are entirely
separate from the May Festival se-
ries. The coupons for the Pre-fes-
tival' co ~se lessen the prlcet of the
May festival tiets, but the, extra se-
ries will have no connectioni with any
other course %ofconerts, thus en-
abling the 'School of Music 'to offer1
the concerts at a cheaper rate.
Professor Addresses Toledo Chemists

address before the Chemical society
at Toledo, yesterday. He took as his
subject, "The Fixation of Atmospheric
Nitrogen."

On The Other' Hand
Concerning"Raiment
The New-Comer says:-
Last week, Bill Jones spent sixty bones
On pensonal adornment:
Bill rooins with me, so you can see,
How that would cause forlornment.
For I must save what chink I have
To spend on food and shelter,
While Bill can throw his father's dough
Around quite helter-skelter.
Sometimes I feel I'd rather steal
Than wea'r this store-bought clothing;
I look a fright-the very sight
Fills me with utter loathing.
Today, Bill said, "What's in your head?
Why mind a little' lying?
My dad I wired 'More books required,'
And he came through a-flying.
Your folks will do the same for you;
Just pad your memorandum.
A little more won't make 'em sore,
When your account you hand 'em."
Howevermuch I hate to lie.
And know it is unlawful,
My trousers feel like bags of meal-
Too wide, too long, too awful!

The Old-Time replies:-
Quee circumstance !-a pair o' pants
Costs this New-comer's reason;
I didn't know that wool would go
Sb high as that this season.
Concoct your lie, and get it by !
The breeches! Go, and win 'em! Y
Yot'll look so cute in your new suit-
And feel so happy in 'em!

Student-"Are you sure they have a line ?"
A. A. C.-"They don't need a line in order to
be busy."
Japan denies she threatened to back the Cossacks
in an attack on U. S. which brings to mind the
story of Rastus who "wasn't going to lead any
lions around, 'cause he had good common sense."
We have heard of monarchs guiding the "ship
of State," but to King Albert goes the honor of
being the first to control the throttle of a locomo-
.tive.
