Hon. George Sutherland, '82L, has
accepted an invitation to deliver an1
address at the exercises to be held on
Washington's birthday. Dean H. M.
Bates received this word by letter on
-Tuesday.
Holding of exercises on Washing-
ton's birthday is not a new thing at
the University but during the past
two .years, due to the war, it was
abandoned. On previous occasions
such men as ex-President Cleveland,
ex-President Roosevelt, Secretary
Newton D. Baker, and James R. Gar-
field have been the prominent speak-
Editor, The Michigan Daily:--
As a payer of $5.00 for a compulsoryI
membership in the Michigan Union I
would like to know what I will get
in return for the money. I have read
that the purpose of the Union is to
promote the Michigan spirit 'and use
the building as a center of activities.
Do those aid the student in securing
an education? Is it right to charge
$5.00 for Michigan spirit? Maybe stu-
dents can have spirit withott having
a membership card, and probably
there are those who would rather have
their "five spot" in the pocket. The
Union is a creditable institution and
it should be appreciated but its mem-
bership should not be compulsory.

card. Then, through the friendships
that he will make with'those associat-
ed with him, and the experience he
will get through his activities as a
Union worker, he ,will soon find out
that his $5.00 was well invested in-
deed, and when he gets to be a senior
one of his most humorous reminis-
cences will be that of the communica-
tion he wrote as "A Frosh."

London, Oct. 29.-Some of the sol-
diers who served in, the great war are
finding the humdrum life of the civil-
ian too monotonous to endure and of-
fering to risk. their lives in campaigns
anywhere or in any adventure to es-
cape the tedium of office or shop life.
An example is shown in the following
advertisement which appeared in the
London paper recently:
"Young ex-soldier, three times
-younded,,.will risk life for 200 pounds;
tired of life and all alone. Write."
Inquiry disclosed that, the advertiser
was formerly a stretcherbearer in the
Royal Army medical corps, who won
the military medal at Matinspuich and
fater at Ypres won a bar to the medal.
After his discharge he obtaineden-
ploy'ment as civilian clerk in the Royal
Air force.
"I am paid three pounds a' week,"

akte he told an interviewer, but I am
ashamed to 'take it. "For weeks I
have not done a stroke of wrk. Do-.
ing nothing all day is getting on my
nerves. I cannot stand it; I want ac-i
tion. Perhaps Iome cinema firm might
want somebody for a particularly
risky job.
eats Recently four officers advertised
of themselves as ready to enlist in any
ows capacity in any campaign or any
country, provided there was ''some
fighting to be done."
