It is amusing to note how short-sighted are most
attitudes upon the matter of practicality. Interested
in some certain line, anything outside of its limited
area looks impractical to the enthusiast. A man may
become so intent upon the details that are in the
foregroundof his chosen profession that he for-
gets the big background, he needs. That, of course,
is just what many subjects in general education
give-background and balanced ' schooling for
thought. And therein lies their practicality.
The questions, "What do I really enjoy? What
sort of work can I do best?" cannot be answered
adequately until many subjects or branches have
been touched upon. Choosing a career too often
rests upon a radical modification of these ques-
tions, such as, "How can I make money most eas-
ily?" or "Where have I got a pull?" And these lat-
ter ideals too often are used to determine the prac-
tical.
Specialization is a great thing; but it is apt to
furnish only one tool. What if someday that tool
should become brokeu? The remedy is to have other
tools sharpened and ready for use.
Have you made up your mind yet as to what an
appropriate memorial for- :Michigan soldiers who
died overseas, should be?
Yes, we know we're wrong about Chicago's dis-
puting the championship with Michigan last year.
There is only one sure way of drinking pure
milk-by demanding the pasteurized product.

Missing in Action
As we were walking down the street,
We met an old-timer
Who sobbed on our neck .
And said he missed
The good old days
When a student was a stoodent,
And not a mere book -fiend;
He missed the time
When imitation of a sponge
Was the mark of a he-man;
He missed the day when drinking tea
Was a confession
Of mental weakness.
And there are those
Who miss the time
When the boardinghouses
Served six kinds of meat a day
For four dollars per.
Hash.
But as for us,
We don't miss any of those
Pre-army joys.
We still continue to miss
More classes than thle Attendance Committee
Will permit.

The Man in the Green Coat paused speculatively
before the window of a jewelry store on State street

Thin Paper Edition
The set is printed on"Thin Uni-
versity Bible paper'," and suff-
ciently opaque to prevent the
type from showing through, and
with body eiough to make it
easy to leaf. The volumes are
Almost as convenient to handle
as the average magazine. Sev-
eral styles of binding are avail-
able.
Special Library Binding
For Schools and Public Librar-
ies the set is bound in genuine
Library Buckram,according to
specifications from the Ameri-
can Library Association. This
bindingis the most durable and
satisfactory for use in schools
and libraries.

SPECIAL attention is given toth
great War in Europe under thdt
heading in the last volume of the
set. As' soon as possible after the
complete War History is available, we
will publish a special War Volume,
and on request will supply it free to
our subscribers. This gives everyone
the encyclopaedia for immediate use
and provides for the complete War
History later on without extra pharge.
