Howlett began, young people out for a good time have found an added zest in breaking some convenient rule not regularly enforced; another, that the actual cases of immorality are small compared to the num- ber of rule-forgetters; still another, and most ii- portant of all, that rules broken innumerable times without any apparent attempt to punish individual cases or any authority willing or able to take the responsibility of such punishment, soon lose their force as compellors of conduct. Why, instead of cutting off Michigan's oldest and greatest social event and hurting the good name of Michigan in newspapers the country wide, could not the committee have considered human na- ture and put the thing squarely up to us as a ques- tion of honor, saying: "You have, for various reasons, failed to realize that obedience to these rules is a matter of honor; you will be given your chance to keep or lose the Hop, and if you fail there will be no Hop in 1922 ?" In the future, the accentuation of the honor side of the Hop, plus the setting up of a student and faculty committee which will be no shadow, but deal directly with violations, is feasible and shoul( by all means he adopted as the basis for a return of the Hop. THE CHINESE SPOTLIGHT The pleasure-seeker and the humanitarian alike wil be reached by the appeal of tomorrow night's entertainment in Hill auditorium; for, no matter how important the phase of aid to the starving Chinese may appear in the reasons for the produc- tion, the show will stand on its own feet and would find a very large audience even if placed purely on its merits as a money's-worth amusement. The Chinese Spotlight is a vaudeville production whose cast has been drawn from the best stage tal- ent of Michigan, both Oriental and American. A musical act which will reveal the origin of jazz is promised, while to the "fussers" upon the campus, the moon mandolin should offer seductive attrac- tion. This act, together with four other equally amusing ones, forms a program which the partici- pators have labored ha'rd to oring up to a high standard of art. For this reason the lovers of pleasure for pleasure's sake will find it to their best interests to be present at the Zpotlight. The ears of any to whom the pleasure side offers insufficient inducement can certainly not remain deaf to the appeal sent forth by the millions of starving Chinese whose suffering is aggravated by the crowded living conditions of their country. It is for the aleviation of their hunger that the pro- ceeds derived from the performance will be used. It is for the preservation of life that the profits are destined. Whether from a love of pleasure or because of the knowledge that the small sum which is required for the purchase of a ticket will help keep some un- fortunate free from hunger, or both, Michigan should fill every seat in the auditorium tomorrow night.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 19, 1921. Night Editor-T. W. SARGENT, JR. HONOR AND THE HOP Can honor be considered apart from time and place, in as abstract a way as a geometric formula? The Committee on Student Affairs announced Saturday in its indictmert of violators of Hop rules in the past, that it "views their conduct as dishon- orable and demoralizing to the student body." The assumption set up against the morals and the honor of Michigan students was severe enough in itself, even considering the careful exceptions made of members of Hop committees and law-abiding Hop- pers; but when news dispatches had, as is their wont, forgotten the exceptions and added embell- ishments of their own, the coast-to-coast opinion of Michigan took a big drop in the ticker. Was the committee's statement justified? Doubtless there are many men who, trained and bred to listen to the voice of conscience in every act, really are face to face with the question of honor or dishonor in everything they do, and guide their lives accordingly. We may assume that the members of the Hop committee are such men, or at least that they hold others to be; for not once, in the course of their argument do they go deeper than the bare outer facts and try to guide the remedy by knowing the cause. The statement that rules were broken was true, but the students, who live close to the reasons underlying the unfortunate events which caused the discontinuation of the Hop were rightly surprised and disappointed that no consideration had apparently been given these rea- sons in the solution of the problem. Honor doubtless ought to be a thing apart, its dictates obeyed by all on pain of punishment; just as human boings doubtless ought to be perfect. But the first is no more possible in this world than the second. One and all, with the exception of the crass materialist, the criminal and the imbecile, we have come to recognize that honor must prevail as the rule of our dealings. But every day, either be- cause we are thick-skinned and through our im- perfections cannot see that a thing is a question of honor: or because desires flood over and drown the voice that warns of wrong; or because timeworn ideas and rluts of thinking have made us so mud- dle-headed that we can rush into dishonor without losing the least self-respect, we break our creed and can only be broiight to time by having the matter dut squarely and fairly up to us. Then, because we drecognize and obey the dictates of right conduct as coneets we take stock of ourselves and change our mode of action. But the Hop committee, seeing things not as they are but as they would be if perfect. never gave us this chance. Assuming that all violations of the Hop rules were direct matters of dishonor, they passed clean over the essential fact that in most cases no such broad indictment would be justified "I never heard that you couldn't smoke cigarettes in the booths," is one comment that is frequently heard -- and the fact that a great many neither read the rules of the Hop nor realized their sig- nificance is just one of many facts not properly considered.

We Wish to Announce the Opening of Our Our Daily Novelette I Campus Branch Together they sat on the mossy bank of the lit- tle rivulet. From afar came the sweet guttural croaking of the crocuses; they watched the little bullrushes rushing wildly by on their way to the sea. Spring had indeed come. IT Yet as they sat there, side by side, he made no move to slyly place his arm about her waist. Occa- sionally she would look up at him, and allow those beautiful, trusting eyes to rest on him. An un- quenchable flame of love burned in their depths ; even he was not blind to it. III He wondered if she, too, had guessed his secret; was aware of the fact that he loved her also. He looked at her and at the look he saw mirrored in her eyes, he held out both his arms. Withra bound she was in' them. Almost roughly he crushed her to his bosom. Few things are more beautiful in life than the love of a true man for a good dog. Our idea of frenzied finance is trying to get $.io on the dollar in a deal with Doc or Schmuck.
