Night. Editor-B. P. CAMPBELL KNOW YOUR UNIVERSITY policy would prove to be of considerable benefit. Determining who among those taking these tests are really industrious students lacking ability, and who, on the other hand, are behind merely because of a lack of proper interest or because of too great a distribution of their energies over fields foreign to their University studies, will probably be the principal good which these examinations will ac- complish. TURNING OLD LEAVES The old U. of M. Daily, files of which are still kept at The Daily office, is interesting in the ex- treme As a means of gauging the changes which have occurred at Michigan in the last thirty years. The new "Thirty Years Ago" column, which ap- peared for the first time before the holidays, wil carry the htmorous comparisons of life "then and no'w" beginning with Friday's issue. It is strange reading for us when we learn that in the school year 1890-91, there had been four violent deaths in the student body, one of which was due to a town and gown battle. The students of that day were solemnly advised by The Daily that the only time they had any right to be on the streets was while they were hurrying to and from classes. Immediately thereafter it sarcastically or- dered the students to lock their doors, in order to " bar out the town ruffiians. So it goes throughout the whole file. The student cheering of i89o was so poor that The Daily car- ried an editorial on the almost criminal actions of a few students who insisted on making use of the "U. of M." yell at football games or class rushes. We are further informed that on one day only seven football men turned out to practice due to a rain. "A ladies' society as broad as the University itself is to be organized on Saturday evening for the co-eds of our institution" is another tickler. The old files give something of an idea of the life and attitude of the students of those days, and show the philosophical manner in which they at- tempted to ridicule and belittle their troubles. To be sure the language they use sounds quaint and labored to us, and many of the points they sress would pass almost unnoted today. ' Perhaps thifty years from no.w our diction and our emphasis will seem equally ridiculous to Michi- gan students. And perhaps, even as we can take a' lesson or two from the past even while we laugh at it, the future campusites will see good traits in -us of which we are today unconscious. The Telescope Help!

In the "good old days" the boys used to sing with much pathos, "I'll Ne'er Forget My College Days." Nowadays the girls sing with even more feeling, "I'll Ne'er Forget My College Nights."

Burton told us in his message in The Daily just before the holidays. He urged us to "empty our heads (if need be) and take a real vacation." The serious student was advised to take time off from his studies and enjoy two weeks of genuine relaxation. "Great !" said we to ourselves. And having read, we went to our last classes, where no small number of us were assigned re- ports or research of various kinds which, to be done right, would take away from us many needed hours of rest during the "time out" period. Ours was not to question, but obey. With some natural ran- cour we went to our homes, where a goodly share of us attacked our stints half-heartedly, desiring with all our might to do something else which prom- ised more relaxation and let us forget books. A few of the super-conscientious did it up right. All honor to them; but, after all, weren't those the wisest who let schoolwork cut into their holidays the least possible part of the time? Or if not the wisest, at least the most normal? Is there any rea- son why a student should feel any extraordinary enthksiasm in carrying out tasks which cheat him of the time granted him to rest? Doubtless, until the day when there are positive rules to the contrary, a few instructors will con- tinue to think and practice the idea that study is an undiluted pleasure, to be attacked with zest, in va- vation as well as in the school semester. Human nature does not bear them out; for no matter how much the scholar, professional man, or business man may like his work, he finds that every so often he must take a rest - an absolute rest, with a change in the material of his thinking as well as in the volume of it. Having done so, he comes back with more energy and efficiency for his next round at study, practice, or business. Positive action by the administration, prohibit- ing the assignment of any vacation work whatever, and leaving the matter of review up to the individ- ual student, seems the best solution. President Bur- ton will then be able to see his definition "a time to vacate" put in practice. MENTAL TESTS FOR PROBATIONERS Following the trend of present-day psychology, the University has now adopted the plan of giving mental tests to all students who are on probation, for the purpose of determining why they have been unable to keep up in their studies and to discover whether such persons are mentally capable of main- taining the standard of university work. Although psychlogical tests have become more or less of a fad in recent times, it would seem that this new NEW TERM - JANUARY 10 .

I like him very much but feel rather embarrassed when out with him any place where he has to remove his hat. What can I do? Worried. Why not take him down to a Main street music store. I see where one of them advertises, "Old bows rehaired while you wait." The other night when we were out with our girl we were durn fool enough to ask her for a kiss. Drawing herself up proudly she said: "I want you to know that my Dad said he would kill any man he ever caught kissing me." At her words, we shuddered involuntarily but finally managed to gasp: "Gosh, I don't see how your Dad can ever sleep nights." Looking puzzled she asks, "Well, why shouldn't he sleep nights?" a After removing the chair which stood between us and the door we replies: "Oh, just from thinking about all those.men he's had to murder on your account." She always darned her hose with silk, The holes were quite extensive, The price of silk was very high Which made them darned expensive. - Exch.
