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. C A i . 1Fi J' TWO STORES Vooksand Suplies for all Collegess Both Stores ,4w* Both Ends of Di onal Walk I .

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 We nominate for the presidency of the Royal Order of Oil Cans last year's freshman who for fear everyone won't know he's been here before 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.
