In the future, however, it will be ci
importance both to the League and
this nation that we assume ou prop-
er responsibility as a member. When
this will come, no one knows. Most
people are of the opinion that the
proper time has not yet arrived. Dr. i
Fisher's ideas on, this will be inter
esting, they will help Michigan stu-
dents to an understanding of the
world situation. The League is the
most important single organ of inter-
national politics today and as such
deserves consideration by the intelli-
gent classes of the United States, rep-
resented by the student body and
faculty of the University of Michigan.
ROOSEVELT AND THE NAVY
Pacificism is not-"alone the love of
f peace; it is not the craven fear which
stirs the coward heart and actuates
it to cling timidly to peace, as Vau-
trin clasped to himself the last few
shreds of his own self respect. Pa-
cificism does not drink the last dregs
of the cup of cowardice.
Militarism is not alone the assem-
blage of armed power, dedicated to
ruin and carnage, subject to the dic-
t tates of a ruthless despot. It is not tl
organized force of annihilation.
Between these two extremes, there.
is a moderate position which people
who love peace, and at the same time
respect their honor can take. Pacific-
ism is in part, the lowly fear Whic'i
kept America from the war -While
her citizens were killed, and her com-
merce sunk at sea. Militarism is in
part the spirit of superb ego which.
sent the Prussian hordes over France
4o devastate the world.
Monday, the United States will ob-
serve most fittingly with Naval De-
fense day, the birthday of the Great
American, Theodore Roosevelt. No one
gave more to the naval power of the
United States than lie, nothing would
be more fitting than to observe the
day on his birthday. It may silence
the foolish objections of the strict pa-
cifist to reflect that Roosevelt stood
for a measure of preparedness and
self respect; it may silence the
pugnacious ravings of the militarist
to reflect that Roosevelt loved and
valued peace. The spirit of the Great
American ought to guide this countryI
in its observances both for peace and
for war, to lead them to an under-j
standing of the just cause of prepared-
ness.

In the course of my own long-
trousered career I have been mistaken
for a book clerk hundreds of times,
often an usher, frequently a grocer,
and once an instructor. All on account
of my disgusting habit of going about
bareheaded. People seem to have an
idea that a person shouldn't appear
in public without an overcoat and a
bowler and earmuffs.

Speaking of a bowler reminds us of
the Romantic Age. (Play presented
at the Whitney theater last night by
the Michigan Drama League, nee Mich-
igan Repertory Theater) The cast was
short .(as someone remarked to me
at the time) about five English ac-4
cents. It's difficult to express phone-
tically, but they all said maryed in-
stead of maddied. For 'married.'
The good lady who played Mrs.
Knowle, in addition to having the
worst accent in the cast, sang her
lines. She missed all her wisecracks
but one, and she positively shouted
that across the footers.

Mr. E. F. Carritt (Chester reminds
us) read a paper the other evening on
the topic "Is There a Moral Faculty?"
There certainly is. What reason has
Mr. Carritt to doubt that it is right
here at the University of Michigan?

"Silas Marner must not know we are
here" hissed Dick Rover as he drew
his two brothers back of the swinging
doors in the tap room. As they crept
from the crowded cafeteria, Dick sat-

their arch-enemy had not discovered
them.

TILE FIRST FACULTY CONCERT
The occasional, faculty concerts,
one-time appearing under the more
dreamy title of twilight recitals, form
a distinctly unique feature of the lo-
cal music. Gradually, more and more,
they have been attracting surprisingly
large houses, and offering in a com-
plimentary nature programs of a very
finished, interesting nature-omitting
for the moment the very worthy, if
not always satisfactory, symphony
concerts.
This year an even more ambitious
schedule than usual is being under-
taken. On November 2, Mrs. Guy Maier
and Mr. Theodore Harrison will ap-
pear in a joint recital, while the or-
chestra has been assigned four dates,
November 16, January 18, March 1,
and April 5. Mrs. Rhead vso, will
doubtless be included in several of the
other miscellaneous concerts, and it
is the general custom to present both
the men and women's glee clubs and
the university band on as many sep-
arate programs.
The concert this afternoon, of
course, becomes a very distinctive
attraction. Andrew Haigh is among
the coming-"rising" is the word?-
or rather, among the impending
IAmerican pianists. He has already ap-
peared in two New York recitals, the
latest on Saturday, October 18, and
the program he is presenting today is
all but a replica of his New York
numbers.
The point is that Mr. Haigh should
be so considerate as to open the series
with his prestige: the concert, nat-
urally, will result in large audience.
* * *
"SPRING CLEANIN'
Sunday night, tonight, there is
opening at the Garrick theater, De-
troit, the most smartly smutty story,
literally in years; Frederick Lons-
dale's "Spring Cleaning," the play that
originally started as "But For the
Grace of God."
The tale deals, pleasantly of course,
with a daintly unmoral, matron and
her very moral husband, infuriated,
as the play progresses, by his wife's
gentle, decadent tampering with rot-
ters and semi demi-mondes. To teach
her a lesscn, and to give a climax to
the second act curtain, he brings the
real article to his wife's fashionable,
very sele,,t dinner-party-what the
modest press blushingly calls "a wo-
man of the streets." There is still a
third act before the final solution ends
this most neatly brilliant satire since
the new morality began.
The cast, too, is absolutely perfect,
Arthur Byron is the husband, A. E.
Mathews the chief cad, and Violet
Heming the wife-oh so wifely. . .
Finally, Estelle Winwood, actually one
of the most suggestively finished ac-
tresses on the present stage, is the
cocotte-and the word is used cor-
rectly this time.
Rover boys, all unwittingly, had been
at the point of revealing themselves
to the villain Marner, whose schemes
for their discomfiture had seldom
failed. And now, as they had become
definitely settled for their college
course, they find the same master
schemer working as a soda clerk in
the tap room.
"What" asked Tom as he sank into a
chaise-longue in a secluded room of
the Union "are we to do now?" Each
of the three intrepid boys realized
that they were faced with a problem.
"Well" drawled Dick in the slow
voice that characterized him when a
crisis, faced the little band "we've got
to face the facts."C
"Yes" agreed Sam who could put
away his prankish ways when danger-
loomed "the facts must be faced.
Tom suddenly sprang to his feet.
"After we left Marner and Warm
to die in the jungle" he ejaculated
they will be more evil than ever."
The prospect only temporarily
stunned the boys, however, and soon
they made their blithe way down the
steps, intent only upon tracing their
way to Van's for a "rolls," which as
the young Sam so aptly put it, "were
a delight indeed."
But to switch our attention to Silas
Marner we find that this crafty fellow
had but consummately feigned his
failure to note the Rovers, and as he
rinsed the soda glasses his thoughts
were already devising plots which
boded ill for the three boys.
