Calling the attention of the stu-
dents to the' fact that we are entering
a new year of university training,
marking for some of us the beginning
of our college career, President Mar-
ion L. Burton made use of beautiful
similes and forceful, direct oratory in
winning -the hearts of those present
in sizing up the tremendous mass of
problems confronting students at this
time and then proceeding to grasp the
kernel of the situation with his topic
"Take Your Choice."
4e pointed out the germ, of edu-
cation as an active mind jworking,
making choices, making the best of
all the gigantic mechanism at its als-
posal but at, the same time standing
out as something individual, with
characteristics and ideals upon which
rests the very essence of the thing it-
self.

UNIVERSITY LETS GO HOUSES
USED FOR STUDENT ROOMS
Four houses which were taken over
by the University last spring to se-
cure'ground for new University build-
ings have been rented for the year to
landladies taking student roomers in
order to help solve crowded rooming
conditions. The houses accommodate
a total of 56 students.
Two of the houses are located on
East University avenue, one is on
Church street; and the fourth is on
South University avenue. The price
of the rooms ranges from $2.75 - to
$4.50, the average price being approx-
imately $3.
"A choice is inevitable," he stated,
and then proceeded to show how the
choices that the students made were
instrumental in determining tkeir
character, principles and ideals, and
most of all themselves.
On the eve of the new semester,
marking the eighty-fifth year of our
University's history; President Burton
delved to the heart of,,.the temptations
that would present themselves to the
students within the near future and
with perfect frankness that completely
won over the audience called to at-
tention three impoitant and critical
choices which must be faced.
Three Choices
In the first place he spoke of the
choice between good and evil touching
on the tenptations that would be of-
fered including failure to make the
best of opportunities because of purel
laziness, drunkenness, and the temp-
tation 1hich he called the sin of ir-
reverance.
Without assuming the 'air of one
who is reprimanding, the President
reduced to absurdities the arguments
sustaining overindulgence in what he
termed college life, and in clear,
forceful terms pictured the present
day college student as a man who,
though faced by the necessity of
making choices and living in the face
of eternal consternation and conflict,
could nevertheless pick the path of
his choice and still look himself in
the face and say to himself that he
was a real man.
The, second great choice which he
touched on was the choice that is al-
ways confronting us in selecting from
the good things that are around us.
To emphasize the immensity of this
particular problem he cited the fact
that it would 'take 50 years for a stu-
dent to complete all the courses offer-
ed in the College of Literature, Sci"
ence, and the Arts and that the prob-
lem confronting all who pursue that
course beginning today was to pick
the best four years' work.
"Make Weak Points Strong"
This choice was not limited entirely
to the college curriculum but was ap-
plied to the individuality of the stu-
dents and the product which they were

October 22, the date when Michigan
meets Ohio State in the season's first
Conference football struggle on Ferry
field, has been set aside as a home-,
coming day for all alumni of the Uni-
versity, and plans are already under
way to make the occasion one of the
outstanding events of the school year.
With the hearty endprsement of
President Marion L. .Burton, Angus G.
Goetz, '22M, president of the Student
council, and Emerson Swart, '22E,
president of the Union, are making
preliminary arrangements for the
homecoming. The Interfraternity
council will also co-operate.
Want Alumni Back
. Every effort will be made to biring
as many alumni back to Ann Arbor as
possible on that date, and to m'ake
them feel that their connection with
the Jniversity is still as strong as in
their undergraduate days. Fraterni-
ties are to be asked to arrange their
l annual house homecomings for the 0.
S. U. game.
The formal opening of the new sta-
dium is scheduled for Oct. 22, andt
the governors of Michigan and Ohio
have accepted invitations to be pres-
ent with their staffs for the cere-
mony, according to an announcement
made from the Athletic office. How-;
ever, the block "M" is to be used on
the date of the Minnesota game in-
stead of at the 0. S. U. game.
Speeches Arranged f
President Burton will probably ad-
dress the alumni during the home-
coming and other prominent speakers
are to be secured, although no defi-
nite program has yet been formulat-
ed. Many leading newspaper men ofr
the state will be in Ann Arbor at the
time attending the third annual con-t
vention of the University Press club
of Michigan.
While large' numbers of alumni1
have always been enthusiastic visitors
at the football games of other years;,
this is the first formal attempt to set
aside one day during which they will
be the guests of the University andt
the student body.t
Will Enforce Postag'e Rules .
Puttiig notes and letters in laundry
boxes and other packages must cease
immediately or the offenders will have
to face the consequences, . according
to the warning just issued by H. J.
Abbott, Ann Arbor post-master. In
the future authorities will open one
package out of every*10, selected at
random from the mails. When such
notes are found the offender will be
compelled to pay' the first-class post-
age rates.
Chicago, Sept. 26.-Leaders of the
Big Four brotherhood of all afilliat-
ed railroadaunions tonight declared
that they had little doubt of railway
employes voting for a general strike
,rathem: than accepting a rate reduc-
tion, but'have announced that the
conservative council of the leaders
might prevail against a walkout.
General chairmen of the brother-
hood of the railway trainmen began
counting the 186,000 strike ballots of
their men, and it is expected that
next Monday officials of the brother-
hood of locomotive engineers, order of
Srailway conductors, brothethood of lo-
comotive firemen and engine men and
brakemen's unions of North America
will meet to count the strike votes of
their 259,000 members. .
The question as submitted to ' the
men carried a vote for or against "a
strike unless the wage reduction
qudstion can be settled in a manner
satisfactory to the general previous
committee representing the class of
service in which I am engaged."
