itig a little, exercising a little judgment, or what is
commonly callel "horse-sense," many a student
will bother someone else with an endless line of
questions 'that are entirely unnecessary.
In reference world, exact pages must be assigned.
The student would never think to look in the index
for the topic he knows the class is discussing. If
he desires information, he never tries to think
where he might inquire to have his question an-
swered. If a room for which he is looking is listed
as 300, he will not figure out that it will probably
be on the third floor.
Many will say that these are exaggerated cases.
They are not. One of our representatives had oc-
casion the other day to direct a number of students
to a meeting. The room was numbered 318. Any
number of persons asked on what floor it was .o
cated. And they were upperclassmen, 'many of
them.*
A "Think" campaign could appropriately be in-
augurated on our campus. No doubt we are no
worse than many other people who are supposed
to have "heads," but we have become accustomed.
to having things served to us morsel by morsel.
Maybe we are out of. the habit of thinking.
COLLEGE, MEMORIAL FOR WAR SERVICE
The prompt response of the colleges and univer-
sities to the demand for men, not only for active
service abroad but for work in scientific and me-
chanical fields, has been widely cominented upon.
We have not at hand data as to Michigan's repre-
sentation in the war, through students and alumni,
but know it was highly creditable to the institution.,
Be that as it may, there is a general disposition to
honor the sacrifice of these who served, eben to the
giving of their lives, in some suitable fashion.
The feeling, in most cases, is that the memorial
should have no obvious utilitarian purpose but
should rather appeal to sentiment and patriotism
and serve to develop a deeper fellowship with the
men whose ideals are thus perpetuated.-petroit

There is -to be a bike race from Milwaukee to
Detroit. Would think that they would employ a
faster means of locomot.ion in getting out of Mil-
waukee nowv that Bevo reigns triumphant.
In Greybull, Wyo., a city employe while burning
brush cleared from a new street discovered a bottle
of "Old Crow." Who said "fire water" wasn't an
appropriate name?

Editor, The Michigan Daily:
France is waiting 10 years to build
a memorial to her soldier sons. Wh1y
the., hectic rush at the University of
Michigan? The kind of a memorial
we want is not selected and built in
a day. {It would be better to honor our
soldiers only in spirit, than to erect
something unfitting- and entirely in-
adequate. I doubt if such a memorial
can be selected and built. through the
medium of student communications,
and student enterprise. It is too big
a job, and too important.
Therefor, I suggest that the Stu-
dent council appoint a committee, to
include faculty men, and the commit-
tee be given power to look into the
situation, make its selection, and act
to give the University of Michigan a
memorial that will in the fullest meas-
ure express the appreciation and hon-
or we feel toward our Michigan sold-
iers. The Daily might Well also start
a competition in ideas, to give the
committee something to work on.

Hof to Write Humor-No. 3
Take the old dead grandmother joke and put
the element of surprise in it at the end, a la 0,
Henry, and you get a perfect "whiz" of a story:
Employer-You want to get off tomorrow?
Grandmother's dead, I suppose?
ffice Boy-No, sir, me brother, who, was born
blilid, has his sight and wants to see me.

"Mr. Vice, The Queen!"
Vice-President Marshall is to receive the king
and queen of Belgium. If they can't get the pres-
ident, they will, as it were, have to use the vice in
a pinch.
A Burmese woman doctor claims that it is possi-
ble to restore life to the dead and that the patient
comes to life with better features than before. If
such is the case, then we can only echo, "Oh Death,
Where is thy'sting."
There is no doubt but that the strike of the soft
coal miners is one of the hardest things this coun-

Sixteen thousand cigarmakers are out onstrike

hemp market is not known.
Women are advocating that the word "obey" be
omitted from the marriage ceremony. If they do,
married men vill have to look elsewhere for exam-

to their little sons.
Glancing over the pictures in Dr. May's office of
the football teams of the. early '90s inclines one to
the belief that the barbers must have been out on
a strike about that time.
