What am I paying that five dollars a year for?" - or, on leav- ing the taproom, "I paid as much for that sundae as I would down town. What's the idea?" This type of comment became too common last year, and has at times been noticed this semester. If the Union charged in the manner which its en-' vironment and service justifies, members would be digging a good deal farther into their jeans than at present. Last year the Union made us a present of around three thousand dollars besides paying $25,000 to student employes in wages. But the dribble of funds must be met by somev regular offset, or in time special assessments will be in order to pay off accumulated debt. Endowment funds for this purpose are a neces- sity: The best method-for raising them is provided throngh the life membership payments. At pres- ent all such payments are turned directly into the building fund; and once that has been filled, every life member secured will be providing for future maintenance. This means not only that the an- nual drives for life members must continue to bring nearly all Michigan men into a life bond with the Union; it means that every .one of us who is al- ready a life member must see to it that that annual installment check is mailed the day it is due. We are the Union; when we have come to real- ize the problems of our great organization as well as the advantages we can get out of it, then those problems will have been solved. THE UNIVERSITY LEGION POST The charter for a University post of the Amer- ican Legion is expected to arrive at Ann Arbor within the next. few days. The purpose of the es- tablishment of such a post at Michigan is to enable service men to remain active in the Legion through- out their college years, and to bring together men of equal education and a common outlook upon life, so that an effective organization may result. Every service man in the University, regardless of, whether or not he has already signed up with his home outfit, is expected to join this post. Transfer from one branch to another is a simple matter, and when service men leave Michigan they can be eas- ily switched to the American Legion post of the locality in which they reside. Judging by the number of sharpshooter medals which shone in the Armistice day parade, there's going to be a big dearth of turkeys in Ann Arbor after that Rifle club shoot Thanksgiving morning. The wearing of the toque is a Michigan custom, adhered to by seniors, juniors, and sophomores as well as freshmen. Let's show our colors. Evidently news of the general decline in food commodities has not as yet reached Ann Arbor boarding houses.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER, 24, 1920. KNOW YOUR UNIVERSITY More than nine thousand patients from all over the state are treated each year in th University hospital which is to be moved into a new three mil- lion dollar building as soon as construction work is completed. The new building will be one of the finest structures of its kind in the country and will accommodate six hundred patients when put into use. THE PROBLEMS OF THE UNION "If the Michigan Union were a men's club lo- cated in Detroit or any other -large city, member- ship dues for it would be around a hundred dol- lars." Not only the manager of the Union, but every man who has had experienec of such organiza- tions elsewhere and realizes the unique privileges which are ours through our great men's club, will subscribe to that statement. We have a meeting- place, to begin with, which in beauty of design and arrangements for comfort is hardly to be excelled anywhere, and is 'not as yet equal at any other university. We have a place where we can entertain and house our relatives and our alumni friends when they visit us at Michigan, and do it in a style on 4 par ith the finest hotel facilities. Previously private rooms, an such hotel accommodations as Ann Arbor affords, were our only resource. We possess an organization whose watchword is service along many lines - excellent eating fa- cilities both in the main dining room and the tap- room; billiards, bowling, dancing, musical activi- ties, the Opera, spotlight, minstrel show, free wire reports of games and elections, even a barber shop. Within a short time one of the best college swiming pools in the country is to be added to the list. The Union does its best to make all these activi- ties self-supporting, calling upon the regular annual (not life membership) dues to help out. That this aim is a practical impossibility is easily seen from the fact that many of the activities mentioned are necessarily gratuitous, while others have shown a deficit in the financial statement just issued. These have to be maintained out of the profits from the paying departments. In addition, there is a gen- eral adminstrative expense item which for last year totaled $49,567.16, and which ate up all the rest of the credit balances plus all the annual membership fes, and still left the Union some $3,000 to the bad. This general expense item included all the costs of the operating department - hire of porters and doormen, salaries of officials, house supplies, phone, taxes, interest, and other smaller items. With these facts set squarely before him, it is difficult to conceive how any member coud walk out of the billiard rom, for instance, with an ex- pression like this on his lips: "They charged me DETROIT UNITED LINES In Effect Nov 2, 1920 Between Detroit, Ann Arbor and Jackson (Eastern Standard Time) Limited and Express cars leave for Detroit at 6:05 a. m., 7:05 a. m., 8:10 a. m., and, hourly to 9:10 p. m.
