not remember names does not realize that he is
simply failing to take a practical interest inethe
other people around him. If he can complete a
college course he surely has memory enough to re-
call a name if he applies himself to the task. Iff he
has wit enough to talk and get along well with peo-
ple, he has sufficient genius to properly recognize
them. It is only indolence and neglect that really
cause anyone to forget names.
It seems to be a truism that the most active men
and the men with the largest associations are the
very ones who do remember names.' It is doubt-
less because they are applying themslves along this
line, have developed the easy method of liking peo-
ple and therefore being liked, have found that the
art of remembering names is just as worthy an ac-
complishment as is remembering Shakespeare.
When the fellow approaches us calling us by
name we listen to him. When he calls us "Say"
or "Hey you" we wonder if he has any very defi-
nite knowledge at all. The way to good fellowship
is sur ly through remembering names. And the
way to good business is by remembering names.
Therefore a course in remembering names might be
the mos tpractical one in which you can school
yoursel .

DEPENDABLE JOURNALISMr
with increasing irritation and a great dealj
:mpt that we at Michigan greet each echo
an aspiring reporter supposed to be a tre-
Sscoop--the yarn regarding the ouija board
igan.
a certain naivete, not born of charity, sev-
our contemporaries have bit at the cub's
yr to find themselves the dupe of a colorful
e. They have expounded upon the evils o
ism as manifested in the "ouijaic" activ-
ich are "rapidly displacing the dance and
ie at Michigan as a menace to undergrad-
demic standing." And they have "fer-
oped that 'ouija prostration' will not be vis-
in them.
gards the so-called "authorities," for this
ble story, we have been unable to locate
them. In fact, all the evidence uncovered
earch has pointed to the directly opposite
on-that ouija boards and similar contriv-
e a noor investment as far as local dealers
:erned and that the past-time has revealed.
its promised deeper significance to those
know what it is.
he fact remains that one more "story" has
ded to that imposing list which tends to
e profession of journalism as a profession
n and the newspapers of today as betray-
heir readers' confidence. Those who re-
his particular piece of "news" indirectly
itut th mselves with escape via "passing
c." Those, however, who are our nearest
s and are consequently responsible for the
.nception. however humble it might have
ist look in vain for an exit.
in the face of such occurrences, the press
r bewails the lack of complete confidence
e government places in it, is it to be won-
at they are greeted with jeers of derision?
ex-President Taft spoke with reason when
o us that there are certain occasions in the
life when wide-open publicity cannot safely
.ained. Until the press can supply a -rea-
guarantee that the news it prints is based
:ts, it must remain content with restricted
from governmental sources.
er words, until a minority faction will con-
the ethics of dependable journalism, the
-ofession must suffer in consequence.
REMEMBERING NAMES
f the common propensities that often
to over-indulgence is the habit of forget-
ies. "I cannot remember names"-says
ess diplomat, thereby attempting to excuse
o everyone. And he goes away from col-
the habit of forgetting how to greet peo-
±rly.
ord "habit" may be rightly applied to this
1 am restless * * in my soul dwelleth illusory
shadows.
My turbulent spirit can find no haven of rest,
It tluttereth about blindly groping * * *
1 feel like one forever condemned to walk on an
abyss.
I awaken and find the shadows fled and the music
gone.
My soul hath grown very small and shriveleth in
my body.
It no longer looks out * * it rattles around.
Inside my body it begins to look like a crab in a
crevice
Staring with bulging eyes at the place wherein it
finds itself.
Yes, Clarice, we know it's awful but this column
must be full even though nothing else is.

UNION MIMES COMMIITTEES
SEEK 1921 OPERA BOOKS
Will Call Meeting of Student Writers
In Near Future
A time limit of some month late in
the spring, after which no books will
be considered, will- be set for the sub-
mission of 1921 Union opera books, ac-
cording to present plans of Mimes and
the Union.
In the near future a meeting of stu-
dents interested in writing a book,
will be called. William A. Leitzinger,
'20, general chairman of the opera, and
a imember of the book committee, will
explain in detail the type of book de-
sired and the mechanical features In-
volved in writing a book.
Mimes appointed a committee at a
,recent meeting to work with the book
committee in getting the books at an
earlier date. Such a policy will en-
able the Union to have more time for
revising the works of the students and
to give suggesetions.
FIRST ALT.NTS OF YEAR.
DISCUSSES RECENT EVENTS
The first 1920 issue of the Michigan
Alumnus has made its appearance.
An editorial on "Our New Presi-
dent," states that the choice of the
Regents in electing Marion LgRoy
Burton as the fifth president of the
University has been a most acceptable
and happy solution of a difficult pro-
blem. The editorial also gives a his-
tory of the new President's. life.
Some of the other editoria1's deal
with the increase in salaries, the Un-
ion's difficulties, the R. O. T. C. and
the Chimes.
The opening of the present year
marks the 50th year of co-education
in the University, and the article
"Fifty Years of Co-Education," tells
of the discussion which preceeded the
action of the Regents in allowing wo-r
nen to enter the University,
