PLUS VALUE RECEIVED Although we are constantly put to the test of sup- porting worthy causes on the campus, we should not become immune to the call for support whenever it is asked. And again we have a call from a well- qualified organization to a worthy cause. In, our Michigan Union, as everybody knows, there is an unfinished reading room; unfinished be- cause heretofore funds have been lacking for its completion. But now an.honest effort is being made to raise the necessary funds, not by subscription, but by giving full value for money received - not char- ity, but support is asked. . The "Veterans Memorial Committee", consisting of the combined service organizations on the cam- pus, is attempting to raise the money and finish the reading room so that it may be dedicated to Michi- gan heroes who died in the -war. By a series of dances, movies, and similar productions, it is hoped that the quota of fifteen thousand dollars will be procured during the coming year. So far five hun- dred dollars have been added to the budget by two dances on one week-end - but that is only a start. This evening at Hill auditorium the committee is offering a moving picture production of the highest class in an attempt to further this campaign. They solicit our attendance, but it should not be neces- sary to urge us to come, the movie will be well worth the slight admission charge and satisfaction is guaranteed. So let us remember a cause, plus value received, and show our support by forgetting other places of amusement along with studies, and by being at Hill auditorium tonight. But in the case of such concerts as those by John McCormack and Edward Rechlin, leaving during the last few minutes of the concert is almost inex- cusable. There is of course always the possibility that an individual may have an engagement which will not wait three minutes, but such cases are far between. In very rare instances does one plan to spend an evening at a concert and at the same time have another engagement which necessitates leav- ing two or three minutes before its close. However, the most downright maddening phase of this development was particularly noticeable in both the concerts referred to, when people sat in their seats -and actually applauded the artist after his closing number, and then when he had kindly returned and favored them with an encore, left be- fore it was finished. Such an act is utterly inex- cusable, and displays either the most deplorable lack of breeding or indeed absence of ordinary common sense. Ann Arbor and the members of the University pride themselves egotistically on their musical ap- preciation, and with greatest sang-froid talk Chopin and Bach and Beethoven, but if such occurrences as have been so numerous of late continue the boasted reputation will soon become an object of deserved ridicule. UNTYING REAL KNOTS Another problem of technical education, that of combinng the practical with the theoretical, ap- proaches solution through the offer of the Western Electric and Manufacturing company, volunteering to make available for students the actual problems which arise in the every day conduct of the busi- ness. In addition the company will have one of its best men, who happens to be B. G. Lamme, its chief engineer, and one of the foremost designers of electrical machines in the country, devote part of his time in reviewing the answers to these problems as they are worked out by students. Here is an opportunity for the student to harness his technical knowledge to actual problems, to ap- ply his mastery of theory to the practical questions which must be met every day in a large. industrial concern. More than that it will give the student a Glose insight into what the difficulties which con- front a manufacturing concern actually are, and will allow him to think out his solutions for these dif- ficulties with an assurance that he is thinking to some purpose. There is great satisfaction in setting one's teeth in some knot which actually demands untying. The problems, according to an engineering pro- fessor, show a striking interest in fundamental the- ory. This fact is a direct proof that the emphasis laid on theory by the technical school is not mis- placed, and it is sure to set forth the actual value of sound training in fundamentals to every student who attempts to solve any of these problems. TO BANISH THOSE BLUES Thanksgiving is over, Christmas but a few weeks off, and a a result the holiday spirit of festivity and idleness seems to have gripped the campus. The only gloom in the path of the joy seekers is the fact that mid-semester examinations are in our midst. However, a let down at this period might carry with it dire results. Instructors are reluctant to ac- cept the alibi of being overburdened with invita- tions to parties or similar excuses as satisfactory explanations for poor blue books. It is merely a question of doing the work or of suffering the consequences. If you have permitted your work to slip now is the time to concentrate and bring it up to standard. If you have done good consistent work this is no time to rest on your laurels. It is easy to be a victim of the holiday lust for. pleasure. But a little scholarly effort sandwiched ,in between good times will serve effectively to ban- ?sh the blue book blues.

Tom Lally, Representative On Grand Circus Park DETROIT I ;,[ I I LEAVING CONCERTS EARLY A practice as senseless as it is exasperating is that indulged in by altogether too many Michigan stu- dents and residents of Ann Arbor, namely, leaving concerts and other programs in Hill auditorium a few minutes before the close of the final number. Not only is it annoying to those who come for the jurpose of listening to the program, but it is also a direct affront to theartist on the stage, as the acous- tic properties of the auditorium are such that the sound occasioned by the slightest disturbance is greatly magnified, and in the case of an artist of temperament such an occurrence is often, to say the least, unfortunate in its results. The practice just referred to was especially no- ticeable in the recent McCormack concert and in the organ recital Thanksgiving day. On both oc- casions a number. of people in various parts of the auditorium rose and left either just preceding or actually during the final number. No matter how boresome a program may be, when an individual is perfectly aware that the next number is the last, it is only a matter of common courtesy to his fellow- sufferers to endure the remainder of the program. i y Just one of our "Shoe Specials" °: Bockton-plain, conservative last Oxford $8.25 Bal. $8.60 They were $16.50 ALL SIZES I Dear Erm: Dear Paul: Can a tan gent believe in sines?
