BUILDING FOR HARMONY
sewhere in this issue is published a communi-
n ;which refers back to two editorials printed.
tly in these columns. The tone of the letter
ests that possibly the article entitled "Our Ul-
rian Campus" really did not set forth the idea
ded as clearly as it might have, but, on the
ary, appeared to uphold the notion that beauty,
>dern building design, necessarily must be sac-
drl to utility.
is to be hoped that this was not the general im-
ion given out by the writer of the editorial, for
was not the intention. Obviously, beauty need
crificed to utility very little if at all in the mat-*
f architecture. Admittedly,however, many of
tructures here fall far short of the final ideal
the standpoint of design ; too often they are
and utilitarian to the point of barrenness.
igan is a common offender in the realm of
tectural complexion, and her buildings more
once have been likened to factories.
t an even greater fault may be found with the
ss policy of Michigan's designers in the past,
it they, being disunited on the subject of arch-
ral forms, and apparently leaving out of con-
Ltioh. the matter of harmony as well as that of
y, have cluttered up our campus with a litter
tildings of all types, species and dscriptions.
-esult, frankly, is a conglomerate jumble. Wit-
for example, the variation of style between
aw, Natural Science and Chemistry buildings
lill auditorium, all grouped qpite near to-
r; witness also the lopsided effect produced
e small, Greco-American figure of Alumni Me.
I hall, with the towering spirit of the Renais-
directly opposite. The general appearance
-se than motley: it is incongruous.
: Michigan has little excuse for being incon-
s from the standpoint of her architecture.
institutions, notably the University of Chi-
n the West, have settled upon definite archi-
al forms which serve every purpose for which
were designed. At the same time, Chicago's
ngs stand out, not as separate structures, but
.utiful units of a majestic whole.
y cannot Michigan, in working out her plans
e future, aim somewhat toward the ultimate
neint of a similar ideal? Though variety is
>jectionable, some general harmony of tone
our buildins is greatly to be desired. After
f we reject beauty, we choose ugliness; and
fended years, as tihey pass, will not accept the
of a supposed necessity."
OUR LITERARY MAGAZINE
msies appears this month with the sub-title
igan's Literary Ma'azine," and with an edi-
statement which indicates that this is the field
igazine intends to occupy. We know of no
why it should not. Certainly it is literary.
'es no articles about student life; it contains
g which requires the campus angle for un.-
mne.~

it twe eaitors o tils magazine are in earnest in
their endeavor to establish at Michigan a little pro-
totype of the great literary magazines of the coun-
try, then their undertaking is to be commended.
They have set themselves a gigantic task, and their
progress should be watched with interest.
Perhaps we should all reserve any hasty judg-
ments we may have formed concerning this enter-
prise, until the magayine has had a greater chance
to speak in its own behalf.
FICKLE NESS IN TEXTS
A certain number of professors hereabouts have
a most curious and annoying habit of changing their
text books nearly every semester, even when the
courses offered remain essentially unaltered from
year to year. This tendency is particularly notice-
'able in courses where the text book has been pre-
pared bythe professor himself, though. it is by no
means confined solely to them.
The apology usually offered for changing text
books is that the course must be kept up to date,
but it is doubtful if the excuse is entirely a legiti-
mate one. Naturally, if th work in any depart-
ment is to assume the most modern aspect, an oc-
casional chanve in books must be made, but the
practice of switching from one text to another can
be overworked so easily that it hardly deserves en-
couragement.
For the student who is able to buy new books each
s-mester and who is academilly inclined enou h
to keep all of them, a 'chauge in texts makes, little
difference. But, in the case of those who must con-
sider every penny in order to meet expenses, the
inability to sell a used volume may result in needless
fin-incial difficulties.'
We do not ask that members of the faculty use
the same old text year after year. whether it suits
their purposes )or not, for some changes would be
decidedly welcome at any time: we merely sugest
that they would be doing us a distinct favor if they,
would endeavor to avo-d undue fickleness in their
choice of books for class work.
WANTED: A NAPOLEON
History repeats itself. The militant, man-defy-
ing Amazon of history has any number of worthy
descendants on the Michigan campus. Proud, aus-
tere, haughty, upright of carriage and portly of
bearing, they have formed themselves into a mil-
tary organization, and drills, maneuvers, sham bat-
ties and staff consultations. - all are held on the
campus, where the admiring populace may.see and
wonder.
Lately the drills have taken the form priicipally
of field hikes and sham battles. Weapons and am-
munition are not required, for the method of of-
fense consists primarily in trampling through en-
emy entanglements. "Company front, and give no
quarter!V" is the cry of the Wolverine Amazon
army. Cowering males are at a loss to combat the
tactics of such an organization ; and so they stand
in the street while their bellicose partners. in co-
education smile and continue their drills. But his-
..ory repeats itself.
"Why doesn't he propose?" is the title of a spe-
cial cepartment on the uwomen's page of the De-
troit Free Press. To attempt the answering of an
unanswerable question relative to the heart-peram-
bulations of Mere Man is a difficult problem - but
then, our near-by metropolitan contemporary has its
own idea of how best to keep and hold its circula-
tion.
Why is it that no ambitious undertaker has ever
thought to setup shop at the turn in our little cam-
pus speedway, immediately in front of the Union.
That section of townshould offer a good field for
traders in coffins.
While we are all talking about improving the
beauty of the campus. why not move the lunch
wagons off State street?

LISTENING VERSUS TALKING
(Colorado Silver and Gold)
Mifitary men forced to be near field
;uns when they pour, forth their' fire
.earn to open their mouth to protect
their ears. Less can be heard when the
nouthi is open, they say. It sounds
reasonable, and the idea can be ap-
plied to the campus. Some people
have their mouths open all the time,
tnd consequently hear/little. Rather
should they have their ears open all
.he time, that they may learn.
Much is to be'granted, it can be ob-
served by watching the biggest men
and women, by saying little and lis-
tening a great deal. It is truly sur-
prising how much one can learn mere-
ly by taking in the utterances of oth-
vrs. At that we find that persons who
,ak the most are likely to say the
least. The most cherished words we
receive are from the friend who setd-
om talks. Many difficulties can be
avoided by listening when one has the
urge to speak.
