Shortly after the war started he resigned his po- sition went to London and was appointed director of recruiting offices. In 19I8 he was made min- ister of reconstruction. Because of his keen in- sight into matters of state, his diplomatic ability, and his knowledge of people, and not as the result of a political pull, he is now serving as ambassador to the United States. The graduating student can learn a great deal from a man who knows so much about the life and problems of one attending a university, who knows what the university student must cope with when he leaves his Alma Mater, whose knowledge of and friendship for the American people is prob- ably not surpassed by that of any other foreigner. HOW ABOUT DEBATING? Every so often we hear someone ask, "What's the news on Michigan debating? Why don't we hear more about it ?" The question is timely. We give much time and enthusiasm to boosting athletics, especially football, and we are .ever anxious to win some-, thing. This is highly commendable, for it helps to improve the college spirit; but while we are in for competition, why can't we develop a little prp- nounced anxiety to beat somebody along intellectual lines as well as athletic? Debating is one of the forms of strictly intellec- tual competition which might be encouraged by the entire student body, but is not. A handful of stu- dents regularly attend the meetings of debating so- cietiqs and take part in the meets, but most of us. seem to have little -interest in this orm of activity ; and, if we do attend, we seem to-do so with the ex-' pectation of being bored for the period of an hour or more. The result is that the big men, and often the best debaters, on the campus have not lately turned out as they should, have not taken part in the work of the societies, and debating has fallen off in importance. Oratorical work and the preparation for con- tests of this sort are helpful, however, and should be encouraged. Such a pronounced lack of interest in one of the activities which makes most toward personality, culture, and the faculty of leadership is, in University men and women, nothing short of deplorable and, even with all the rest of our outside interests, there seems to be no good Feason why we' should not give debating the support it deserves. It's odd but true that a student gets off more old correspondence just before he goes home for Christmas vacation than he does in a whole semes- ter What are you doing to make this Christmas a genuine Yuletide for the poor children of Ann Arbor?

NightEditor-T. W. SARGENT, JR. KNOW YOUR UNIVERSITY The University of Michigan Extension division was organized in 1911. At the present time one hundred eleven faculty members deliver three hun- dred lectures a year, reaching every county in the state. The twelve bureaus send out reading rat- ter, supervise high school debates, care for the pub- lic health in case of necessity, offer regular univer- sity courses for full credit, and loan the services of faculty men to municipalities where their advice is invaluable in determining the course of public projects. THE EXTENSION SERVICE Not many years ago' there were whole counties in Michigan where the University of Michigan was a fague institution "out there" which sometimes broke into the news columns because its students had committed some new asininity. Now all of that has been changed, largely because of the serv- ices rendered by the University of Michigan Ex- tension division., The three main purposes of this division were to acquaint the people of the state with their Uni- Versity and its work, to give the faculty a more adequate conception of the problems of the peo- ple, and to make use of the University facilities to the greatest possible extent in aiding the state to solve its problems. We may well be proud of the success of these three measures under the administration of Profes- sor Henderson. Our faculty members have in their trips about the state become human beings'instead of names to the people. The University is no longer something intangible. It has become the place where Professor So-and-So hold his classes. 'Oh, yes I know him. We had a long chat to- gether the' last time he was down from Ann Ar- bor." The professor on his side has in these chats come to know the people, too, as human beings and to appreciate the conditions under which they live. The whole thing has been put upon a human basis as opposed to its preceding institutional character. In addition to this the towns and cities of the state have been given sthe benefits of the work in the .University laboratories and of the technical skill of our instructors. The. University has become to some extent the workshop for the state of Michigan without in the least decreasing its efficiency in its primary func- tion, the instruction of Michigan students. This undeniably is a worthy achievement. SIR AUCKLAND GEDDES Classes graduating from the University of Mich- igan deserve the best that is to be had in the way of commencement exercises, and it is probably with this end in view that the authorities obtained Sir Auckland Geddes, British ambassador to the United States,'to deliver the commencement address. Before the war Sir Auckland Geddes was active in educational pursuits, serving as president of Mc- Gill college, Montreal, Canada. While acting in tltis capacity he was able to study the different types of men and women found on every campus mingle with them, ascertain their problems, and, S CHUBERT DETROIT S0. .HERNDON presents CHRISTMAS WILL BE HERE IN THREE WEEKS Your thoughts are already turn- ing towards those Yuletide fes- tivities to coime.
