GETTING STARTED
Once more an army of freshmen has entered
Michigan's walls-men and women from all parts
of the world and in every walk of life. For the
past few days they have been catching at the rag-
ged ends of our preliminary routine and today they
enter into the real university life. While they are
still a bit unsure of their procedure and somewhat
uncertain of what the future holds for them, a
word about campus work outside the classroom
might not be amiss.
Activity is the watchword of every real Michigan
man and woman. To be in something, to push
some project that will be of benefit to the Univer-
sity and its students is what we are striving to do.
Michigan is a large university-one of the largest
in America-and, as such, is able to provide just
the kind of activity that will appeal to any student,
no matter what his tastes. There are publications
for the literary, glee clubs and the band for the mu-
sical, all the collegiate sports for the athletic, engi-
neering societies for those with technical inclina-
tions, and numberless committees and organiza-
tions glad to welcome those interested in them. En-
trance into any of these forms of activity will prove
of mutual benefit.
If you are a newcomer, remember that you are
welcome. Don't think you are intruding. You
will always be given a fair chance to show your
abilities. Don't wait until you are a sophomore.
Go out for something now. Even though you will
not gain official recognition the first year, you will
be better qualified, by entering into active campus
service at once, to do worth while work for the re-
mainder of your college course.
meaning for those who could learn its values under
such a master.
Fortunately, Michigan was able to avail itself of
Professor Demmon's leadership for an unusual era
of usefulness. To only one other professor in the
University has it been given to influence and in-
struct more than two full generations, and Profes-
sor Demmon's part in the upbuilding of Michigan's
greatness can be counted best in terms of the thou-
sands whose lives were touched by his teaching.
A STUDENTS' PRESIDENT
Michigan's great promise of progress lies in an
understanding co-operation between students and
administration. When there is distrust or dislike
on either side, the University suffers. That neither
of these stumbling blocks is going to appear under
the new regime is the 'strong conviction of every
student who has had the. privilege of meeting Pres-
ident Marion Leroy Burton. The grasp of his
firm, friendly hand is a masonry of good feeling.
Each of the four receptions at the Union this week
will cement more strongly the ties of real fellow-
ship which he has been engaged in establishing
since his arrival in July.
Dr. Burton is a students' president. He has
known and befriended the college man and woman
for many years. Almost the entire time of an in-
terview for The Daily was given up to questioning
-by the president-of what the student attitude
was likely to be on a number of important campus
questions. For the first time, the student is to have
both active and continuous official backing against
the landlady who takes unfair advantage of him.
He is, when President Burton carries through his
present policy, to have a special dean of student
affairs to look after his interests, and not to serve
as a policeman in any sense of the word. The liv-
ing standard of students is to be raised as high as
possible, with excellent men's dormitories as the
first aim. And in all relations with the student
body, careful consideration of individual cases
rather than blanket application of rules is to be the
watchword.
The great moments of students, the times when
they feel compelled to work off their exuberant
feelings over a victory or some other great occasion
in a way their grandfathers would not think of, are
known and appreciated by President Burton. He
has had them himself, and has not forgotten them.
But in all this, the man who is to guide Michigan
in its coming era is no sentimentalist. Nobody will
ever leave his office without getting what the pres-
ident, to the best of his lights, believes is a square
deal. But nobody will ever find any reason to call
him a "sob sister." Michigan needs an executive
who understands the student; it also needs a man,
who can make a far-seeing decision and hew to it,
saying "no" if need be. It has them both in Marion
Leroy Burton.
The student who mocks at traditions and refuses
to respect them will find that the University of
Michigan is also, for him, the University of Hard
Knocks. Traditions are not adhered to because
they are sensible, for sometimes they are not. They
are here because it has been found, over many
years of experience, that they build Michigan spir-
it. Spirit is what distinguishes a university from
a correspondence school.

Life's Fairy Tales
The student heaved a sigh and a groan,
He gave a shudder, a cry, a moan,
Then fell to the floor, his energy spent,
For the landlady hadn't doubled his rent.
Then What?

PROFESSOR DEMMON'S INFLUE NCE
When,the public learns of the death of a useful
man, it counts his loss largely in terms of energy
and will and ability. The hands that could turn
skillfully to many tasks, the mind that could, direct
and plan, the heart that .would hold steady to a
great aim, are hard things for the world, which
needs them, to-replace. But to those who lived
close to the life which is gone, who knew its warm
friendship and its fine qualities of humanity, the
personality must always seem the greater loss.
Around the late Prof. Isaac Newton Demmon,
this circle of the intimate was large indeed, for it
included not only the friends whom a man makes in
the usual course of home social life, but all those
who attended his -classes in the University over a
period of forty-four years. Professor Demmon
had a way of teaching which brought the student
to a finer appreciation of the value of true scholar-
ship. The man himself, with his high-minded loy-
alty to the ideal of best things, was an inspiration.
Those who had never before known the beauty and,
influence of books, learned from him how they
could enter into the life of a man, mold him to a
broader culture and a{kindlier spirit toward his
fellows. English literature came to bear a new

keeps repeating in a loud voice, "The old town
ain't what she used to be."
Dear Noah:
In my home town I was real popular with the
boys but since coming to Michigan I haven't met
a single gentleman. What should I do?
LONELY.
Why not find employment in an arsenal and then
you can always be sure of having arms around you.
The other night while we were out with our
girl she kept singing the praises of some gink she'd
justt met. Finally she came to the front with "I
like Bill because he's always saying something that
I never hear from any one else." To which we
feelingly replied, "What's he been doing again?
Asking you for a date?" And after that several
remarked about what a quiet couple we were.
What, we repeat, has become of the old-fashioned
humorist who used to make the rafters of the opera
house ring with laughter when he pulled this one:
ist cabby-That's an awfully poor looking horse
you have there.
2nd ditto-Yeh. You see I toss him every morn-
ing to see whether he gets his oats or I get a pint
of moonshine and he's lost for 6 days straight.
