"SMALL TALK"
dame Curie - who is being urged to abandon
trip West because she is "completely tired
by the "small talk" of her American hosts in
netropolis, is not the first to have faced un-
ssfully the crossfire of bromides, platitudes,
gown-talk which bewilders and benumbs the
er out of his element.

THE COLLEGE MAN'S INCOME
According to the income tax report of the 1911
class of the University of Chicago, the college man
after his graduation is not as poorly off as he is
often thought to be. In the case of these gradu-
ates of ten years ago, the average income for the
men is $5,762.51, and of the whole class, regardless
of sex, $4,509.75.
From this it would seem that the college man is
much more capable of attaining comparative suc-
cess, financially at least, during his first few years
of business than the starter vho lacks the advan-
tages of a thorough education. The case proba-
bly, however, is illustrative not only of the fact that
the college man is better fitted for his life work,
than the individual of less training, but also that
the very inherent qualities of enthusiasm and "go"
that put him through school in the first place'have
caused him to put forth his greatest possible effort
during the first few years of his life as an alum-
nus.
Hard work can do more than anything else to
make a success of a man, especially when that man
is well fitted menally to carry on the line of en-
deavor he has chosen. The trainng is what college
gives to him; the ability to use it and to put forth
his utmost effort can come only through natural
tendencies and a will to do. Nothing but ten
years of the hardest and most enthusiastic kind of
work can bring up an average standard like that
displayed by the graduates of 1911 of the Univer-
city of Chicago. 'tIoil is what the man about to
graduate must look forward to with detrmination.
THE ALUMNUS CITIZEN
While in college, university men and women are
prone to consider that the big opportunity for serv-
ice to their alma mater occurs during the under-
graduate years, when by their work and ability
they can give their institution a high competitive
standing in athletics, studen't activities, and schol-
arship. It is true that perhaps the first test of what
a school amounts to is made by balancing up these
important indications of worth. But without de-
preciating their paramount importance in the least
it can safely be said that undergraduate accom-
plishments do not tell the whole story; and that the
college man's opportunity for service isn't cut short
by graduation.
One real test, after all, of the value of attending
a university is how well it fits one to face the prob-
lems of life. For this reason every institution if
learning is judged to a large extent by what its
graduates do in the world and what kind of Ameri-
can citizens they are. Michigan's fifty thousand
alumni have set a high mark in this kind of service.-
To live up to the highest professional standards and
better them if possible is a duty of the graduating
seniors as well as keping in touch with their alma
mater. They must always keep the ideal of "the
best" - Michigan ideal - before their eyes.

The Philosophical Fan
The other day at the ball game
An ardent fan was yelling at the batters,
.Make dandelion wine,
"Make dandelion wine",
And when we out of curiosity asked him
The idea of his seemingly irrelevant remark,
He answered that he wanted the batters
To hit the ball so hard that it would land
Way out among the dandelions,
Crush them,
And thus make the dandelion wine.
Arent' some people deep thinkers?
Today's phosphorescent talcum powder is
awarded to the fellow who is afraid to pay fifty
cents for a gallery seat for fear he will fall out
into the orchestra and have to pay two dollars
extra.
Our most faithful "contrib", L. H. L., has submit-
ted to us the following satire upon her own deli-
cate sex.
Mary, Mary, slightly airy,
How do the fashions go?
Piled up hair, and shoulder bare,
And vertebrae all in a row.,
We had to get out our own text book to verify
the last line.
Quoth Eppie Taif:
A strange demise was that
Of Henry Sledd;
He went to sleep one night
And woke up dead.
