On Tuesday Mlay ,13, the voters of
the campus go to the polls in the an-.
nual all-campus lections At that
tne the Ni±1 of the student body will
be expressed in black and Nvhite.
A fter Tuesday the "die is cast," so
to speak, and if any candidate does
not possess the qualifications neces~-
sary for off'ice holding that fact should
be taken into consideration before andi
not after the elections.
Careful thought should be given
by student voters to the capability of
the mecn nominated for office. The
nominatons are made early enough
so that definite opinions of the candi-
dates may be formed. The campus
elections are of vital interest 'to ihe
individual student. lie should re-
gardi the act of votling as an obliga-.
tin and a duty; a means to elect
to office the men best fitted for the
position irrespective of any partiev-
Campus politics are in many wrayvs
similar to 'nation'al' politics; the miass
of the voters go to the ballot boxes
with no definite views or choices: of
their own, controlled by the dictates
of a. few. Then,' should any malad-
ministration occur there is at once a
wide spread clamor. It would Nhl
more to the point, if the voters were
to study the situation beforehand and
then cast their ballots in a judicious
mranner.
The lack of interest is attested to
by the number of students voting in
past elections. Twenty-five hundred1

emm~~lectioln and i t is n11al'y fo. i

TAXISG. toiEIGN WOij sDS
Word, comes from abroad that tlu14
Italian Government has levied a tax
on the 2oimmercial use of 'foreign
words. Apparently Signor Iussoli 1ls
Government desires to discourage 'the)
use of foreign_ expressions in Italy}
and hopes to accomplish its Purpose
b'y this impost on all foreign expres-
sions used in signs, in names, and in
commnei'ial correspondence . If'an
Italian landlord,, for exampt4,, calls
jhis house a "grand hotel," he is taxed;
but "grandi aTerghi" is immuie froma
taxation 'Tf a man wants to go into
buisiness tia a "tailleur" or 4~ "Eng-
lish tailor" lie must pay a tax; butj
if he is content to become R. "sarti"
he goes scot free. And so on through
the list. Naturally the question arises
whether the church is going to be)
taxred on its Latin.' It seems co be
a _process of Italianizing the Italianis.
EXTREME NATIONALISM
The action of Italy is a good ex-
ample, of the epidemic of nationalism
that is sweeping over a great part of
the world. Nations are shutting them-
selves up in a kind of inhospitable
nationalism. The tiniest state must
have its own idiom and its indigenous
literature, not a -word of which can
be read outside its frontiers. Even
the Turks, it is said, have banned
foreign signs in Constantinople, and
ro~oit:Such is ~yl{i
Yesterday afternoon we were read-
ing the Horseshoer's Journal over in
the Library-one of the many fascin-
ating periodicals that come in every
week.
Some gug, had written to the editor
demanding proof 'that he wo td be:
financially better' off if he took the
course in horse-shoing at Coinell;
he seemed skeptical of the Journal's
assertion ,that a man with a certificate
that he h~ad received a. C or better in
Ilorseshoing 1 anjd2 could make more
money than: a ma'not' so' blessed. In
proof of his contention, he cited the
case of a 'friend' of his who.- had taken
the short course and had' then' come
home only to find that his competitors
had cut their prices to a point where
he couldn't find a single customer,
certificate or no certificate.' The- Jour-
nal answered-hihn thus:-
"To reach the conclusion embraced
by our correspondent he done so, no
doubt, unmindful 'of Ithe fact that
tribute was being paid to ignorance
and denied knowledge. We doubt
very much if the one referred to as
having,; taken the course at the Cor-
nell school experienced what corres-
pon dent claims he did, unless it was
due to his own want of tact or in-
tellect, in handling his patrons.
Thus summarily does the editor of
the I-orseshoe'?s Journa~l 'dispose of
the foes of education.
What a claim to fame has Dexter.'
In every road show that has played'
Ann Arbor since the dawn of history,
Dexter has been the tank town that
the leading comedian has dragged
in to fill the place in the' manuscript
'where the. librettist, writes 'name Hof
gag town'. In New York is is' Passaic,
N. J. In Detroit it is Iiamtramck.
In Ann Arbor it is"Dexter. And after
all, that is something.
