Yost China, and the Island of Yap offered complexities which tended to make their final settlement unlikely. But in the first month of thesession most of the great international questions have been disposed 01 in a manner highly satisfactory to the leading pow- ers and to the world at large. Secretary of State Charles Evans Hughes' plan for the limitation and reduction of naval arma- ments, the maintenance of the status quo of naval bases and fortifications in the western Pacific, and the holding of a ten year naval holiday was favor- ably received almost immediately by the principal powers. By this plan immediate reduction of the fleets of England, Japan, and the United States must take place, when details are arranged. As a substitute for the Anglo-Japanese alliance, the re- newal of which might cause serious international perplexities, a pact was signed by the four leading powers which among other things makes provisions for the calling of conferences whenever a breech of relations between two of the constituencies is cited. By a diplomatic fete the controversy center- ing around the Island of Yap has been settled on terms advantageous to the United States. America and her nationals will be accorded the same cable rights and facilities on the Island as are possessed by Japan. In addition to those mentioned numer- ous accomplishments of less momentum but of no small importance have been scored to the credit of the men assembled at Washington. All of which should tend to indicate that the con- ference is one of action and 'not one in which "words, words, words predominate" as Rudyard Kipling incorrectly prophesied it would be. THE WONDER-WORKER Time, the wonder-worker. Three years ago innocent people were looked upon with suspicion, if not actually deprived of their property, because they were Germans. Today a combine is being formed to ship raw materials to Germany, which is to be made into saleable prod- ucts by means of the cheap labor obtainable there, and then dumped back on the United States, with no loss, we hope, to the philanthropic promoters of the ambitious scheme. Ernst Harzmeyer, a teutonic tar, has been pre- sented with a British medal and loving cup by the British consul at New York for his "gallantry and humanity" to a shipwrecked crew abandoned on the North Atlantic in 1914.

CHRISTMAS Throughout six stages of man, weathering all the vicissitudes and disillusionments of life, Christmas remains ever cherished in the human heart, and its sparkling halo of romance fades only with the ad- vent of that last stage of all - complete oblivion. To the college youth, with life and two weeks of vacation in front of him, Christmas looms particu- larly alluring. It means to him not only that glor- ious day when the star-crested evergreen graces the front parlor and the Yule log breathes a cozy warmth from the crackling hearth, but also a fort- night of complete relaxation from the "cares and responsibilities" of University life, spent in the midst of family and friends. It means the renew- ing of old ccmraderies, and for some - we trust - the making of fresh love affairs. Youth is san- guine; and Christmas is the exquisite expression of its spirit. Today the exodus begins. Some students will stay in Ann Arbor. Regardless of this, it may be said, and without discredit to Michigan, that all approach the temporary suspension of scholastic activities with a sigh of relief. Even the opera stars are anxious to get on 'the road. They long to realize that date in Bay City, or the rendezvous at Indian- apolis. And the remainder of us will not hesitate to board the rolling stock headed for our native lands. Go to it, men and women of Michigan! Make the coming two weeks extend a brimming cup of joy wherever you may be. Forget all about your books, if you will, as you scatter to different cities, different states, and different regions; but remem- ber one thing - your University. Leave Ann Ar- bor as far behind as you like, but take Michigan with you. Boost Michigan. Talk Michigan, think Michi- gan, dance Michigan, - until others may learn to know, as you know, your University. With you rests thefuture of Michigan, with you the caliber of man and woman who will stride her campus in the years to come. Others can be enthused only through enthusiasm; they can realize only through your realization. Then let the curtain rise! May the drama of Christmas be a fantasy of joy whose music charms the hearts of all! But as the men and women of Michigan make their entrance into the setting to play their part, let them bear one thing in mind. There is a difference between boosting and boast- ing. Michigan wants the boost. MORE THAN WORDS When the present conference on the limitation of armaments opened in Washington last month the problems confronting the delegates assembled were so complex and grave in their nature that the in- telligent element of the public was dubious as to just what would be accomplished. Practically all of the powers had interests in the Far East which would have to be safeguarded in connection with any decision on a limitation.of either naval or mili- tary armaments.

Must be the Chimes; they sound no rare At eight o'clock this Friday morn. What was that cry which cut the air And rang so deeply in my ear? With happiness its tones declare 'Tis o'er, the last class of the year. What was that shriek which pierced the air And banished every pout and frown? It means the end of text book care, It means that trains are leaving town. We've waited for the engine's scream, We've craved the loco's roar, We've longed to realize the dream That out o' here we'd tore. So if the meanin' of this rhyme Dont penetrate yer dome, We'll tell yeh now, it's Christmas time, An' we are goin' home. You can bet your boots that 95 per cent of the men who go around wearing galoshes have respect- able sized holes in their shoes. A Reverie I look on the near-saloon And the near-saloon looks on me, - And musing there an hour alone I dream that men might still be free. -Iconoclast.

He got an awful fright; But she didn't mean Watuhe thought she meant, - Whth huh h enShe turned the parlor light. e- Ima Dyspeptic. To the Patient Readers (With apologies to Moore) Tis the day of vacation; for a good many miles All around our white campus you'll see naught but smiles, For the long weeks of waiting have finally passed, And the days of vacation have rolled 'round at last. So good-bye, gentle reader, the best of good cheer For a real Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year ! -~Vee Dee. Famous Closing Lines "Ah, the Yule log," muttered the engineer as he packed up the slide-rule for his only Christmas as- signment. ERM.
