Parker, head. of the department of ,ineering, to, resign his position on the is 'very much loved Alma Mater". arker goes, however, from a high po- field of edufcation to an equally high eld of commerce. does Professor Parker stand among in his profession,. but he has through °rvice and able efficiency brought the ,ineering department of the University place among the other 'such depart- ,hout the country. With his departure il sustain a genuine loss not only in ed of one who has done so much -to prestige of his institution, but also in ho has been a prominent factor in fos- er relationship between the faculty and PULt ACROSS T IE OCEAN. The well-known saw has it, "You can't teach old dogs new tricks", but if reports of thos who have recently returned from England can be believed it seems that the Yankee influence over there is fast proving an exception to this proverb. For they.as- ,sure us that the British bulldog is rapidly catching on to many of the tricks taught him by his Ameri- can cousin. Bond Street is daily taking on the appearance and atmosphere of Broadway and the Strand 'is legin- ning to march to the syncopated music of the Bronx. The American hustler is not looked upon as the pilgarlic he used to be, but beneath his light- hearted air the stolid Englishman is beginning to see a system and efficiency which he himself could adopt to great advantage. His afternoon tea, his four o'dock cricket match, and .his saunter down Paternoster Row he is beginning to find make se- rious inroads on his day's work. In fact so much does the Britisher appreciate the business methods and social customs of the American that before en- tering his son into business he is in not a few cases sending him over here to see America first. America is looking on all this with amusement and pride. It has taken the conservative inhabi- tants of the sea-girt isle a long time to see much in American life other thin superficiality and sciolism, but that they are now "coming rdund" can hardly' be doubted. The presence of our doughboys in England and the way America delivered the goods during the. war are perhaps the chief reasons for this change in opinon. And, while Americans cer- tainly would not like to see their British cousins adopt any of their bad tricks still would it not give satisfaction and relief to watch the sons of Albion learn how to tell a good jotke right? THE MICHIGAN :DAILY staff of "B. M. O. C.'s" sis scheduled to meet a team from the gar-' goyle, ga rgyle, gargle, - or however-you-spell-it,-- at nine o'clock this morning. THE DAILY'S ex- tra edition, announcing a victory over the gurgle, will appear on the street at eight fifteen this morn- Michigan's position this year in spring athletics hangs in the balance today as her track team meets Chicago, and her kbaseball nine encounters Illinois in the first of a week of battles on the road. Sit tight, Michigan! lie Telescope - IOTHERS S AY: MIDI-VIcTORIAN "FLAPPERS" (The New York Times) But most to you with eyelide pure, Scarce witting yet of love or lure; To you, with birdlike glances bright, half-paused to speak, half-poised in flight; 0 English girl, divine, demure, To you I sing! -Austin Dobson. Far more blessed than "Mesopo- tamia," the word "Mid-Victorian" evokes the picture of perfect female propriety. Then simple innocence and innocent simplicity characterized the English girl. Unsophicticated, una- dorned, shrinking, apart, she was al- ways standing with reluctant feet where, and so forth, as in the poem. Why must The Saturday Review snatch the reverend periwig from the poll of Mid-Victorian virtue? That journal reprints an article on "The Girls of the Period" that appeared in 1868. It was written by Mrs. E. Lynn Linton, a clever and once well-known novelist and essayist, a vigorous journalist,' She laments the vanish- ing of "the fair young English girl of the past." Gaze and shudder at that celestial damsel's shameless succes- sor: The girl of the period is a creature who dyes her hair and paints her face -ds the first articles of her, personal religion; whose sole idea of life is plenty -of fun and luxury; and whose dress is the object of such thought and intellect as she possesses. . . The girl of the period has done away with such moral muffishness as considera- tion for others, or regard for counsel' and rebuke. . . . If a sensible fash- ion lifts a gown out of the mud, she raises hers midway to her knee. . . Talking slang as glibly as a man, and by preference leading the conversation to doubtful subjects. So the happierage of.gold was brass to billous eyes; and in the most high, and balmy state of prunes-and-prisms the daughters of men capered and felt (Contiued on Page Seven) ' GET '',NSIANS TODAY Michiganebsians may be had today in the basement of the General Library, at the east J driveway entrance.

Due to our recent success in obtainig a method for removing the crane from the Clements library, we. have decided to aid the rhetoric department in conducting a short story contest. We believe that the failure of the one conducted by Chimes was caused by the fact that the reward was too small. Therefore we are offering to the winner the Presi- dency of Hill Auditorium.
