THOSE ARDUOUS DUTIES
It yet remains for some acute student of political
science to devise a satisfactory system of democ-
racy that will ~be all benefits and no burdens, or
even one that will free the citizen from the petty
annoyance of voicing his opinion on public ques-
tions once in a while and writing his name on bal-
lots a few times a year. This prayer of a long suf-
fering electorate for a self-running government that
will please everybody is still unanswered. Even in
college elections which are nearest the fountains of
science, students must, if they want things to' go
right, attend class-meetings and vote.
On our own calendar and during this present
week there are several occasions when it is the duty
of each of us to give a little of our time for gen-
eral political welfare. Next Friday all class offi-
cers except those of the freshman lits will be
elected.
At the beginning of the year, a class in college is
an uncertain quantity. It can become really nota-
ble or it can listlessly drag through the year, a bene-
fit to nothing and nobody. What it develops into
depends first, on the interest of those in it and
second, on the kind of officers it chooses for itself.
The kind of officers elected is by no means of the
lesser importance. Who will be elected will be de-
cided in a great measure at the class-meetings to
be held before the Friday ballot, when nominations
will limit the number of candidates. Therefore
everyone feeling concern for his class-and this
should be everyone in the class - should be on
hand when the names are proposed to see that good
men are put up.
Voting has been made so easy lately that is no
reason why anyone should fail to express his opin-
ion during the coming election. A little time at
meetings and a record ballot Friday will insure all
the classes a good start for the year.
BACK THE BAND
With two of Michigan's hardest games of the
1921 football season, the Wisconsin and Illinois
contests, to be played away from home, plans are
now being made for the raising of money to send
the band with the team to both Madison and Ur-
bana. One scheme suggested by the committee in
charge of arrangements is to conduct a band
bounce in Hill auditorium in the near future; an-
other is to send the players to Chicago, there to
give a concert under the auspices of the Chicago
_ alumni; while it is also suggested that a consider-
able amount of decidedly usable cash might be ob-
tained if buckets were passed through the stands
at the Ohio State game.
To make the two trips possible, some $7,ooo will
be required. If Michigan is to make the best show-
ing possible on the fields of her sister universities,
the Varsity band must go along to help the travel-
ing Michigan rooters supply something of the Mich-
igan spirit which at Ann Arbor would be so much
evidenced by the forty or fifty thousand rooters in
the stands. This means a considerable expenditure
of money, which some one must contribute.
The members of the band are a hard-working lot,
and deserve all the recognition and reward that can
be accorded them. But, more than that, Michigan
needs and deserves the support of the band at
every athletic contest in which she takes part dur-
ing the year. It is up to us of the student body, by
contributions at the Ohio game, by attendance at
the Band Bounce, and by every other means possi-
ble, to send that aggregation bth to Wisconsin and
Illinois to encourage the Michigan team. If we ail
to do so, we shall be lagging behind in our duty to
the University and to ourselves.
THE TAXICAB ORDINANCE
At last all question of disputes over taxicab fares
in Ann Arbor has been done away with and a re-
currence of former arguments has been made im-
possible by the ordinance, passed by the common
council of the city last August, regulating fares and
stipulating the exact amounts together with the time
at which they shall be charged. The measure will
come as a relief to students who have never been
exactly clear as to just what is the city ordinance
governing the matter stated, and who have suf-
fered overcharges in the past through ignorance of
the law.
Under the new ordinance, from 5 o'clock in the
morning until it o'clock at night the single fare
shall be 35 cetns; from ir at night until 5 in the
morning, it shall be 50 cents and each stop en route
to the destination shall be charged for at the rate
of t5 cents. It is important, too, to notice that the
ordinance is based upon central standard time. Stu-
dents will doubtless save themselves any argument
with drivers in the future by keeping the provisions
fthisnew law well in mind.
FRIENDSHIPS AND SUCCESS
Abraham Lincoln during the span of his life was
endowed with practically unlimited power over the
energies of a nation whose integrity he was attempt-
ing to preserve. But the septer of authority which
was his, and the immense responsibilities which it
{ involved, did not cause him to neglect his friends
and his own supreme importance did not lessen in
his mind the value of those comrades whose ears
had not resounded with the clarion of fame. In
spite of the stupendous sphere of his accomplish-
meits it was Lincoln who said, "The better part
of a man's life consists of his friendships."
The ideal of success and the ambition to achieve
are requisites without which no individual can
hope to obtain his full share of life. But in pur-
suing the course of one's career it is only too easy
to he kind to all associates and steadfast towards
none. Such comradeships cannot stand the test of
time with its disintegrating influence. A few tried
and true friends, as well as honestly earned ene-
mies, are the marks of a thorough success. The
faithfulness of his friends to him, and his stead-
fastness towards them are the real tests of a man's
noility of character.
It is such a spirit towards life which prompted
the late Judge Hugh Stewart of Chicago to in.-
scribe in his will the following words: "Although
I am not endowed with much of this world's goods,
it has pleased God, however, liberally to endow me
with many friends whose friendship and association
I have enjoyed more than I ever could worldly
wealth."
