ENTER FiffSHiIEN Nothing is of greater a*,. to the advancement of "A Greater Michigan" thap the interest which students take. In campus activities. It not only brings about a more active campus life and a stronger and more efficient organization of the studonts on the campus, but brings the students en- gaged in such act'vity into closer touch with the University and makes Vhem better and more loyal alumni after they have gone. But campus activities atre not some- thing that can be taken in small doses. They must be entered into whole heartedly, and with interest that is only surmounted by interest in schol- astic enterprise in the University. And they must be entered into from the first. It does little good for 'the junior or the senior to signify his in- tention of working on the publica- tions. A man who has already spent j several years on the campus has littleI chance of °ga'ning a place on the foot- ball team. It is upon freshmen that the duty of taking up the work rests, for to them, and them alone can it re- suit in tb n :'o,.. a ,;e .,n fCt'Poll V"lii Bt ie ,t i a-, <' At .'. i- i~r !S1-. ta(E' r ijytt ip1 in V c," a miaber of students wtio are engaged i i campus activities will explan their I q Beres of acti v I ix and tell the first year men the opportunities that are offered through work in the various departmeints.

The purpose of this meeting is to Introduce the class of. 1927 to that~ sphere of' college life, campus activi- ties. They will be told what there is to do and how they can do it. They will be instructed and encouraged, to the end that campus 'activities may grow stronger and that Mchigan may be "A Greater Michigan."

We can only say that judging from these reports the female class of 1927 must be a most extraordinary aggre- gation of nifty nymphs. We found this printed' on a post- the other day; it strikes us, further- more, as a worthy cause which should have the support of every student: I, the undersigned, would like to be- come a member of the Faculty Nursing Association, and do hereby pledge $1 a month fromn October to June inclu- sive in support thereof. (Signed) ................. However, it was not signed. We have noticed, of late, a deplora- ble effort on the part of the faculty to assure their students that aquiz sec- tion is not a quiz section, but a dis- cussion section. If this continues, lectures may soon degenerate into re- itals, classes into pedro parties, and lab sections into pot-luck suppers. "In Mieoriam."w Well!

At any rate the reason reported to haive been (de- cisive against the western grip, in our opinion, ought not to have out weighed the reasons for it. The loss of three (ays of study rather than one, considering how hardj the boys have to work at the AademyvI~ ought not to be considered so sri- ouis, as to counterbalance the ld vantages to the army and to the coun- try which bringing the toam west promised. The army needs the benefit of publicity. It needs to be sold to the people as 'apossession of ours to, be proud of. An American who doesn't get a wholesome thrill out of seeing cadets march on the field is lacking in something lie needs badly. It is anj inspiration to see the clean cut, virile young Americanism of the army eleven and a reminder that West Point is an American school like any other varsity or college or academy a part of our American life, inherently and repre- sentiat'vely Amercan; not a thing apart biut, on the contrary, at the veryI heart of our American scheme. Regular soldiers fr quenilyv com- plain . that the American public does; not know the army. It has boon1 largely the fault of the army itself, and this decision against the Chicago; game is an illustration. The chance toI come west should have been seized, not refused. It was a chance to 'put. West Point into the imaginat'on of the west as something other than a school for soldiers, for specialists in war, a-chance to make the west think of West Point as a great institution of education, a citizen maker, which -t is. The army authorities should real- ize that the little army obstructionists are strong in the west and that the army is~ seldom visible 'to the eyes of the western, public. Until recently when it was visible it was likely to be badly represented unless there was trouble. The army of today needs toi b~e advertised for what it and brought home o us all for what it is- as representative and inspiringly American an institution as we possess.

By SMYTIE ROBIN IIooDM1ODEII N VERtSION A Paris jury rendered a verdict re- cently which bi g.5 out :a point thai we H v o g * n e o d s u s Ayoung m an working in the offices of ~the American E~xpress company dis- appeared last February with $0,000 of the firm's money. Ie was arrested several months later and put on tr'al' last Saturday. The (defendant frankly! confessed that he had taken the money from time to time to the amont charged and had spent it on his swee.- heart* and in having a good time. The prosecuting attorney demanded se- vere punishment, but the attorney fo the defendant made a speech delar- ing tht youth, would be youth andi' then described the American [Express company as "an enormously richi con- cern which had made much money exploiting people on French soil, which had made millons win exchangeI speculation at the expense of the franc, which' did not sufficiently watch its employes, else the young moan could never have taken so much, and finally! as a company which had too much money anyhow." That sounds like the old (lays in merry E~ngland when Robin Hood and his jolly men infested Sherwood for est., robbing the rich and giving to the poor. But the main purpose in citingI this story is to call attention to the inefficiency of the- present jury sys- tem. The above example is rather far fetched and comes from another country where the system of law is somewhat different, hut it serves. to illustrate the psychology of the aver- age jury. The jury of today is composed of a mixture of sentiment and old-fogyisnm. It is inclined toward sob-stuff, uin- acgui~nted with legal procedure, and unable to understand legal language. Lawyers, thanks to their careful training, seemingly are able to refrain from drawing against a dlefendant all adverse dedIuction because of the color of his eyes or the cust of his coat. To the layman jury, on the other hantd, this is app to, and in fact very often does, prove to be a (deciding factor.

For instance, here are some of the secret abracada- br'as of E. C. Simmons, whom we be- lieve to be the high mogul of the Keen Kutter hardware business. H-e says: Among thme rules that governed me in by boyhood or younger days 3were the following: I never was a clock watcher. Work came first with me, always, and everything else was secondary in the highest degree. I never asked for an increase in compensation. (Do you suppose he means a raise?) I determined that I would command it by results, in- stead of asking for it or crying for it. . . . Many a time one single bad habit will standl in the way of a man's progress in life and cause him to be a failure. (Follows -a story of how 'lie refused a bright looking young man a position because he had seen himt smok~ing.) Therefore I say to you boys, if you have any bad habits-cut them out. If you don't cut them out, and don't succeed,- in life, blame your- self---it will all be your fault. As the jacket on the book says: The secret is out-and no average young fellow can bring up any hard luck story if he fails to attain the highest success.
