He goes about repeating rumors that he has heard off- hand, giving them out as fact before he has tried to investigate. His \ remarks not only are aimed at professors and courses but they also hurt Michigan spirit in athletics and other student activities. He seems to be imbued with the incurable fault of crit- icising existirg things destructively with never a thought about a possible correction. The essence of growth is true criticism, but when it comes in the form of passed-on gossip it does more harm than good. We hear altogether too many remarks about activities, games, and what not, by men who, we know, would not pass oh such astounding news as fact if they understood a little better the activ- ity, or had a little more to do with the professor or his course. It is time to begin to foster a better campus spirit by getting rid of the not necessarily. disloyal, but thoughtless, student gossip. Let's do our part toward making Michigan stand among other schools as a place where the students are that type of men and women, who prove their University cal- ibre by refusing credence to rumor and propaganda. -AT-i BOTH ENDS OF TqE DIAGONAL WALK GOLF SUPPLIES .

While not disputing the accuracy of the observations of the famous invent- er, still it is felt that possibly he did not take into consideration some of the other factors which give the college graduate a "head start". The question of ignorance is not all that is to be taken into consideration, for it is certain that upon investigation everyone will be found in various' stages of ignorance upon various subjects, of which Mr. Eidson's tests are an infinitesimal, part. The big deciding factor in success is not how unin- formed one is but how quickly it is possible, to as- simulate the amount of information necessary to overcome this lack. That the college man has a distinct advantage in .accomplishing this task has been amply confirmed by the observations of a great many keen-sighted business men, who ,for this reason give preference' to this, type, of man. While it is undoubtedly to be deplored that a great many college men are strik- ingly uninformed on a great many special sub- jects, still it is a proved fact that by acquiring the ability to comprehend and assimilate readily they entirely vindicate the'cause of college education. In view of the number of office girls winning re- cent beauty contests, an awakening of the "home forces" and a stricter censorship of hubby's pri- vate stenographer selections may be expected.

Your conviction 'was the best, "Varium et mutabile semper femina est". It satisfied most of the sophomores to say "Give 'em hell, twenty-three", but one, more ferocious than the rest, with grim, determined jaw, and as- perity written upon every line of his visage, uttered the harshest invective conceivable, "Give, 'em Tay- lor's Economics".
