bluebooks from students who come to class on edge
and in some cases completely unnerved because of
a lack of confidence and an uncertainty concerning
the course in which they are. to be examined.
That time should be allotted for the students of
the' University to prepare themselves correctly for
final examinations is not an "idiotic contention,
but a sane belief which results from the knowledge
that university students are not inhuman, and
neither have they memories which retaig ideas as
clearly months after they have been impressed with
them as on the day of the impression.
THE SPIRIT OF POETRY
Unselfconscious joy in life, unembittered accept-
ance of its whilom disappointments, sympathetic
understanding of others' hopes and happiness or
sorrow - this, mayhap, is the true spirit of poetry,
gently leading mhortals along the pathway of experi-
ence toward health of mind and beauty of isoul.
An American state university of learning is a.
very human institution, palpitating with sanguine
hope, vibrant with adventure, surging with effort,
groaning with the travail of acquiring real knowl-
edge, and finally rich with success. It is not any
wonder, therefore, that such an institution should
be instinct with ,the spirit of poetry, or that this
spirit should ultimately find articulate expression in
an established literary publication.
Nevertheless, since the University of Michigan
is relatively young, and since a purely literary pub-
lication is a flowering of mature growth, it is per-
haps not to be wondered at that such a periodical as
WHIMSIES, Michigan's Literary Magazine, has
not sooner come into existence, or has not hitherto
found enduring support.
The story of the modest, even shy, beginning of
WHIMSIES, last year, as an anonymous sheet,
was sketched recently in the columns of The Daily.
Apparently the same quality of modesty prevailed
over social impulse, and 'prevented the editors of
WHIMSIES from publishing a fuller. account of
their domestic development and growth. While
The Daily cannot be expected to appreciate such
diffidence, it prefers not to criticise the delicate sen-
timents of the poets in literature, but in the spirit of
pactical journalism to applaud their constructive
purposes.
As to the degree of accomplishment of those pur-
poses by WHIMSIES, The Daily's magazine crit-
ics probably will make their own interpretations
and render occasional judgments; ahd their read-
era in turn will interpret their remarks and judge
their judgments with more or less discerning minds
and understanding hearts.
Meanwhile even the uninitiate in the higher lit-
erary art are not without some imagination. The
spirit and purposes of the founders of WHIM-
SIES are. widely appreciated. Its fledgling year
manifestly was attended by fortunate auspices, and
its achievements thus far augur well for a pro-
longed and useful life. The Daily wishes Michi-
gan's Literary Magazine' the abundant success
which its high purposes deserve.
Reent discoveries by an English,' scientist indi-
cate that tears are a benefit to the health of the in-
dividual. From this it is evident that even our
greatest villains may be public spirited.

Announcement

A Small Favor
Blue book time is drawing nigh,
The end is now in sight;
Summer time will soon be here,
Mosquitoes then will bite.
Bumps they make on our poor legs,
They seem' to have no care;
Could they but a warning give,
So we would know they're there.

Kill them if you can, my man,
Their death would suit one fine;
Those that bite your shapely props,
May do the same to mine.
Do YouKnow Any Good Ones
We are still confronted with the problem of ob-
taining a set of satsifactory rules for our short
story contest. Any suggestions that you can make
will surely be welcomed. This is urgent because
we are anxious to get -the contest under way as
quickly as possible. We think the following are
plausible.
Manuscripts written, in crayon will not be ac-
cepted.,
Sketches, cartoons, and moving pictures can be
employed to illustrate the story.
Quite Proper
"We have come to stay" would be a fitting in-
scription to place over the gate of any cemetery.

We. are happy to announce that
The R. & W. Motor Sales Con-
parry will represent Packard in-
terests in Ann Arbor. Mr. Wool-
folk is anxious that all Packard
owners and prospects visit their
showroom and service station and
become acquainted with their or-
ganization. Their address is the
Campus Garage at 504 East Wash-
ington Street.
