be elated over the prospects of Mich-
igan history which it is in his power
to make.
That partial hesitation which re-
tards the step of the freshman as he
sets out for the first time bedecked
with the traditional head gear, hardly
adequate to protect the self-conscious!
newcomer from scrutinizing eyes, will
soon be replaced by a sentiment ofI
class unity and a full comp~rehension
of tradition. It is not within the pow-
er of anyone to force the spirit of
Michigan upon the men of '27. Only
through the complete and voluntary
realization of the customs and atmos-
phere which are so vital to universi-
ty life can freshmen be made to ap-
preciate the significance of being a
Michigan man.
Universities have often been (lefined
as "institutions of higher learning".
While there does not seem to be any
'peculiar significance in this state-
ment, the term "institution" is not
merely another way of saying "place".
Organization and group feeling playj
an all-important part in the main ten-
anice of such an institution as this
and the root of these is found in the
traditions which have survived and3
expanded with the passing (f the'
years. Initiation into the customs
of Michigan means merely absorption
into the great crowd of men who are
Michigan's best claim to honor.

The New Army.
The outstanding event of the week's
domestic news is not found in the
pages of the press but that does it) no
way decrease its importance. This
week witnesses the mobilization of the
Grand Army of the Republic. The
whole thing is being done with tie
drums and fanfare of war, without the
fervor of patriotic speeches or other
signs of military preparations. It is
a quiet process and yet effective. All
the colleges in the country this week
open their doors to students number-
ing well into the hundred thousands,
and it is to this sort of army that not.
only this county, but the whole world
is beginning at last to turn. It is not
an army of squads and battalions, or
guns and cannon, or of other destruct-
ive military accoutrements, but rath-
er it is, or strives very earnestly to
be ,an army of intelligence and of
trained minds.
Education, though it be cussed, dis-
cussed and laughed at( is nevertheless
the greatest hope of the world today.
Education can, overcome or at least
mitigate all the ills that the world at

OASTE~ ROLL
The big contest is all off.

want to know what you're going to
call that column?"
We said "Yes."

It seems that the simple sap th t
was chief before this one had a dozen
or so cuts made,-al reading "Toated
Rolls". Thinking they'dl wear out, you
know. And we still have ten of them
left.
And the business manager-than
whom there is no more parsimonious
ape on the face of the earth--refuces
to pay for a new and artisth-2 head
piece until we have worn out the old
ones.
Anyone with suggestions on how to
Iwear out zinc cuts will be welcome at
this office between four and five in the
afternoons.
Well, we save fifty cents on it, any-
how v...
lThis morning the tightwad business
staff was hard up and asked us if we
wouldn't go out and take subscriptions
to the G. C. D.(greatest college daily,
ye know) and we-picturing to ourself
a line of people, pens in hand, waiting
patiently for their turn to sign up-
saidl we'd help out.
So the bus, gmr. gives us a armful
of papers and about a million blanks,
all different colors in case they also
wantedl a subscription to the Campus
Mind or something like that. We start-
edl out very peppy, hunting for a stra-
gic sales headquarters.
The thing that spoiled all our ardor
was an elderly gent coming up and
asking if we had a Free Press.
"Shave With Cuticura Soap.
!The New Way Without Mug," says
an ad in Ann Arbor's only afternoon
paper. This invention would seem to
eliminate all the trouble from the old
chore.
And have you seen Wagner and com-
pany's little brochure entitled "Michi-
gan in Action", with a picture of the
new lit building right underneath?
r. THE HENDECA-HERON.
Bertha was a moron. So one day
she went out into the meadows to
pluck dandelion greens for some salad.
Arriving at the meadows, she plucked
and she plucked and she plucked, until
her little aching fingers could simply
pluck no more. When she had finished
plucking, she sank to the ground and;
proceeded to count her dandelion
stems. To her surpise she found that
she had gathered a total so surprising-
ly large that she could do nothing but.
gasp for several minutes. She had
enough to make 70 feet of salad! She
rose to her feet and flung her arms
about in a wild paroxysm of joy.
When this fit of ecstacy was reaching
its climax her eyes chanced to light
upon object standing not far away
with ts tail toward her. It was aI
missioner Roy Asa Haynes has put a
stick in the prohibition issue in this
country which will make it go to the
heads of many good people. His letter
to a congressman asserting that it is
the intention of the government "to in-
terfere as little as possible" with the
right of the farmer to make cider,
will act upon public opinion much as
the yeast acts upon home brew.
The prohibition commissioner de-
cides that the farm districts, which
are dry in politics, may be wet in prac-
tice, andl the city districts, which are
wet in politics, must be dry in prc
tice. It is quite all right for President
Coolidge to have a cider press on his
Vermont farm, but illegal and immoral
for him to have a barrel of grape juice1
fermenting in the White hlose cellar.
It is the same theory which decides
that wet Madison street without any
beer cannot provide honest jurors to
try a liquorcase, but that dry Lake
county with cellars full of apple jack
may do so. It gives the gentle rustic
14 per cent cider, and the rough city
roustabout 14 cent milk. The rustic,
no doubt, will feel that that is profit- <
able to all concerned, and will votef
for those who make it possible. It is
a noble arrangement-politically. It
adds the almost. unanimous dry vote
of the actually wet country to the
scattered dry votes of the theoretically
wet city. It promises to continue the
present Volstead at indefinitely
through the efforts of wets who voe
dry and of drys who drink wet. It
makes the head swim.
Seriously, it strips the last pretense
of consistenecy, of iorality, and of
ethics from the practical workings of
prohibition cause, which is to say
from the Anti-Saloon league. 'It runs
the league up the street, for all to see,
in the habiliments of a bartender
handing out hard cider and a blessing
to the good dry voters, and butter-
milk and a curse to the bad wet vt-
ers. For that much we may be thank-
ful.
Perhaps, after all, Mr. Haynes is not
the yeast in the home brew but thel
sheet gelatin which ;precipitates teI
sediment and renders the cloudy clear.
AMERICANITS ON PJi()IITTON
In a discussion reluctantly entering
upon an appraisal of the. success of
American liquor legislation, the ILou-
(Ion Spectator recently published an
article entitled "Prohibition and the
American Youth" which has called
forth considerable protest f r o n
staunch Americans who hate to see
the hammer used on a worthy insti-
tution. T1he author of the much dis-
cussed paper, one "Americaum,
praises the attitude of the British
student toward self-imposedtepr
ance, stating that the "drinking ao--
eties" of former days could not eis-jI
dure the growing sentiment against
