Funds for French Memorial to Be
Raised by National Campaign
As a fitting sequel to the gift of the
Statue of Liberty to the United States
by France in 1885 comes the announce-
ment of a national campaign for the
purpose of raising funds to erect on The
site of the first battle of the Marne a
colossal statue to serve as America's
gift to France in commemoration of
the victory won there in 914.
In the same manner as the various
Liberty Loans were apportioned, the
national committee has divided the es-
timated cost of the memorial at $250,-
000 among tbl different states. Mich-
igan's quota is $7,000, of which $250
has been assigned to Ann Arbor.
Small Subscriptions
Since th entire sum necessary is
comparatively small, it has been de-
cided that individual subscriptions be
limited to 25 cents, in order that the
gift may really come from the Amer.
41can people as a whole arld ot be the
'donation of a small minority. This
procedure parallels the method by
which funds were raised by the French
for the Statue of Liberty, the limit at
that time having been placed at one
franc.
_ MaeMonnies to Design Statue
Frederick MacMonnies, the distin-
guished American sculptor, is now
working on sketches of the memorial.
MacMonnies is well known in France
as well as in America, having been
in that country during the war, at
which time he gave his studio near
RECOUNTS EXPERIENCES
AMO LABRADOR FOLK
DR. WILFRED T. GRENFELL DES-
CRIBES MISERABLE CON-
DITIONS
Experiences among the fisher folk
of Labrador was the subject of Dr.
Wilfred T. Grenfell's lecture last
night in Hill auditorium. The lec-
ture was 'illustrated with colbred
slides.,
On Dr. Grenfell's first cruise in this
territory, he and his staff made a sur-
vey and analysis of the various dis-
eases of the coast people. The pre-
ponderant cases were found to be tub-;
erculosis, and infantile paralysis,
with acertain amount of scrofula,
beri-beri, and blindness. During the
first year the doctor's work was car-
ried on among 30,000 of these hospit-
able and simple folk.
A system of non-sectarian hospit-
als, co-operative stores and schools
which, Dr. Grenfell says have done a
great good for the poor folk, have
been introduced on the sparsely set-
tled coast.
The scenery of the Labrador and
New Foundland coastsrwasydescribed
as rivaling that of Norway.'
Both Dr. Grenfell and Dean Victor
C. Vaughan, who introduced the
speaker, emphasized the need of funds
with which to carry on the work.
Those interested are requested to
send and contributions to M Evans
at Lane hall.

ible for membership in the club.

Ann Aror Sees
Aurora Borealis
Two years ago when the sky was
colored there were dire predictions
among the pessiniistic that the world1
would end; the optimistic declared
that the war would end.
Last night both classes of men had
the chance towitness the phenomenon
without trying to connect it with any
event to come. They recognived it as
the Aurora Borealis.
That interest was shown in the
lights was evident, for although the
lights were observednat about 7
o'clock, numerous phone ,calls con-.
tinued to come in to the office. Tele-
phone calls also carried questions,
some asking if the lights really were
the aurora and others asking what
caused the illumination.
The most plausible theory is that
the emanation causes an ionization in
the 'rpper strata-simple, isn't it?

"U fM rolm eig flyChaotic, "Says Burton to Alumni

President-elect Marion L. Burton
paid 'a flying visit to Ann Arbor Sun-
day afternoon, being ain the city only
from 3 to 6 o'clock. He conferred with
President Harry B. Hutchins on re-
pairs and alterations to be made on
his new home in the Angell home-
stead.
Doctor Burton came to Ann Arbor
from brand Rapids, where he ad-
dressed Grand Rapids Alumni asso-
ciation at their annual dinner which
was given in his honor. Doctor Bur-
ton said in part:.
"I will say at the outset that there
is no danger of Minnesota convincing
me that I will be happier in Minneap-
'olis than in Ann Arbor, as I have told
them that I am determined to marry
the girl, and I will. The University
of Michigan attracted me first because
of its 40,000 former graduates who can
be counted upon to lend their powerful
influence to the support of the insti-
tution.
"Problems Cijaotic"
"The problems at the University of
Michigan, I must confess, are delight-
fully chaotic," he continued. "There
are financial conditions to meet. Sal-
aries must be raised. We must be able
to compete successfully with the in-
dustrial organizations which are at-
tracting our professors by larger
wages. I am confident that we shall
be able to face the legislature soon
'and successfully ask for larger
funds."
Dr. Burton then told of hi. concep-
tions of what must be taught at the
University.
"The first essential of education is
an active mind. We must iear down
all barriers and in some way prick
and goad the minds of hundreds of
under graduates until they fairly glow
with an almost insatiable curiosity
for knowledge which will aid them in
grappling with the problems of to-
day.
Accuracy Needed
"Our schools, as never before, must
demand. accuracy. From the stand-
point of American life/as a whole, the
problem involved is fundamental.
Superficiality is an American vice.
Historically speaking, we have been a

must be aroused. Our duty, as edu-
cators, is to place a higher value upon
the art of teaching. The results' to
be secured are tw-fold. First, we
mustehave students who study. That
is to say, students who are actually
concerned about their understanding
of the truth and life. Secondly, we
must have teachers who teach. That
is to say, those who recognize that a
human being is one of the final val-
es of life, and, therefore, actually
proceed upon the hypothesis that the
thing which counts is not the quantity
of material presented, but the actual,
positive, avkening of . the human
spirit."
Prof. Ralph W. Aigler of the faculty
athletic board of the University was
the first speaker. His address took
the form of an explanation of the Uni-
versity's athletic showing the past
year.
Regent Benjamin S. Hanchett, of
Grand Rapids, welcomed Doctor Bur-
ton to the city, and said, in doing so.
that he was welcoming him to the
State of MTehigan for the next 25
years.
