DE YORE "Your materialism is superficial your nobility of soul is' fundamen- tal. Your greatness rests not in your amazing natural resources, your minerals, oil and virgin soil, but in the energy and enterprise of your people. The American destiny is fraught with high promise."-J. St. Loe Stragchey, editor of the London Spectator, in a radio farewell address to the United States. after a seven weeks' visit. HAPPY NEW YEAR! To many, it is a somewhat pertinent fact, worthy of some consideration, that when we return to the Univer- ity after the holiday vacation, it will be in the year 1926 (A.D.) To the in- different, it means nothing; to thel weary, "another year;" and to the wise, "an opportunity." In spite of he plaints and dire phophesies of the gloomists, the nation is not going on ,,the rocks, the "younger genera- tion" is not speeding on to perdition, nor is everyone making the great trek to Florida . Although, in retrospect, we might look somewhat dubiously on the achievements of the first woman gov- ernor in Texas and the Scopes and Mitchell trials, we can reflect with some merited enthusiasm on some of, the achievements of the past year: the Locarno Pact, the arbitration of the Tacna-Arica boundary dispute, the ..pt action of the League of Na- in stopping the Greco-Bulgarian outbreak, and the internationalization of the student federations of the world. For the coming year, business will probably be on the upward trend- toward a substantial growth and rea- sonable prosperity. The sciences will unoubtedly: continue to make new and. useful discoveries to benefit hu- r'manity. The social services will cer- tainly care for the needy and disabled as far as possible. It ought to be a great year if we make the most of it. 1kappy New Year! ULTDIATUT The entire student body has known for a long time that the liquor situa- tion couldn't go on as it was going tion's policy toward farm relief. In his address, the President strongly condemned some of the proposed price-fixing bills in no uncertain terms . He advanced his own plans, which provided for co-operative mark- eting measures, the formation of a co- operative marketing association, and active aid in the department of agri- culture for the farmers of the coun- try. The administration expected an en- dorsement of the President's policies, but such was not forthcoming,-he apparently failed to convince the farmers of the value of his measures. Consequently, the middle western farm groups are expected to support the. more radical bills to be proposed in the Senate this week. Represent- ative Dickinson, Republican, of Iowa, ;yilljntroduce a bill providing for the use eooyprnment agencies for price- fixing of p'rcouct If which there is a surplus. Senator Cummins, also of Iowa, will propose another price-fix- ing bill, similar to that of his col- league. As a resuit of the administration's policies and their lack of support, there is raised the possibility of a po- litical revolt in the middle west next year, and perhaps a presidential can- didate in 1928. Senator Capper, Re- publican, of Kansas, who is considered by many as the logical leader of this party, believes that only immediate adjustment of freight rates, the secur- ing of reliable marketing information, and better credit arrangements, will put the farmer back on his feet, se- cured, perhaps, by more vigorous leg- islation than that proposed by the chief executive. Certainly the economic status of the farmer should be improved at once. Price fixing would probably remedy the situation only temporarily at best. The President's policy seems the most practical one: co-operative marketing measures, and active aid in the de- partment of agriculture. These, cou- pled with financial relief,-reasonable credit facilities,-would alleviate the l unfortunate existing conditions. The i administration's plan is safe, sane, and practical. Why not use it? CAMPUS OPINION Anonymous communications will be disregarded. The. names of commi- cants wil, howevera. be regarded as confidential upon re(uest PRESIDENT LITTLE To the Editor: It is gratifying to see the fine atti- tude and courage shown by President Little during the few months he has been at the head of the University. In his address at the citizen's recep- tion, he gave voice to the mutual in- terests of citizens and of the Univer- sity, expressing the spirit of co-opera- tion between the University and citi- zens necessary to accomplishing the work the University is supposed to do. His inaugural address was full of sympathy for the students who find themselves on the campus for the first time, bewildered and discouraged by the strange situation, the tortuous, if not the torturing, processes of enter- ing college, and suggeted practical ways of helping them to find them- selves quickly, and to get the idea that the University wants to help them. Now the President is taking steps to help the student body to ridl itself of the activities of the bootleg- ger, emphasizing the duty to uphold the state and nation. President Little is taking advance Ong nome qun e oversaows any ng else. But perhaps you will use this Daily to wrap up your shoes or some- thing, and then when you get home your famnily will see it. Which leads us to think how futile it is to write for a newspaper. Of course a certain amount of people read it, but have ever thought to how many entirely foreign uses a news- paper is put? Wrapping thinks, cov- ering thinks, hiding thinks, and some people even put large piece of it inside their shoes to keep their feet warm. Thus they walk on our labored writ- ing at every step, and no one knows that they are even doing it. Such is life. Someone is always walking on one's greatest efforts, and the rest of the world doesn't even know that they are doing it. * s s ON CHRISTMAS I 'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house You could hear the boys snoring for King Charles give a rouse But in the wee hours from under the phone A vice shouted I'm Irish my name is Ike Cohn. II 'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house By jove you have guessed it: the trap's for a mouse - Now don't take me wrong and don't be misled For Mable had only a pain in her head. III 'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house You could hear the loud stripes on Sophie's new blouse The point of this poem seems only to clear When driving a trolley you don't have to steer. No boys, the headline in yesterday's paper reading "World Court Bill comes to Senate" doesn't refer to our noted Professor of Geology. That gentleman is still right here in Ann Arbor (or Greenland). * * * MISS SNORP LEAVES FOR VACA- TION ON SPECIL TRAN. REQuIRES ThIREE ANM) A HALF ENGINES CANNOT 3AKIE UPPER BERTH Ann Arbor, 1\lich., Dec. 18.-Miss Effie Snorp, whom you must all know by this time, will leave Ann Arbor at 12:35 P. M. today for her home in Northern Michigan. The name of the town is Flyspeck (you can find on anyy map) and the nearest railroad station is Milesaway. The Michigan Central will give Miss Snorp a private train with three and a half engines to take her to Milesaway Because of the narrowness of the berths on the average sleeper, it has been found necessary to construct a special sleeper for Effie. This car is designed along the general lines used in the average bat car except that it The six best musical comedies (in order of interest): "The Charlot Revue of 1926" with Beatrice Lillie, Jack Buchanan, *and Gertrude Lawrence at the Selwyn.

AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER- Comedy Club is presenting Bernard Shaw's comedy in four scenes, "Great Catherine," Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, January 12 and 13, in the Mimes theatre. On Shaw's own admission, it is his single bravura farce, a broad unman- nered and unmoral piece, filled with a slapstick hardly a step above cus- tard pies and lovely ladies. The Catherine he treats is a maidenly woman, a German with a fraulein ac- cent, the dignity of a Juno and the passion of a fishfag. A glorious crea- ture, but a heroine no more than Joan, the Saint, or Candida, the devil.

Practice it daily. Cultvate the habit continually. You will be the greatest beneficiary. But Christmas time, when this spirit of good will is most in the air, and most in the minds of men, is a good time to consider it carefully. Carefully lest when the spell of the holiday spirit is spent, we again neglect good will. For the heritage of good will to the individual is contentment and happiness, to industry it is growth and a good name, to society it is peace and prosperity. Without this saving quality towards his fellows, no individual may consider himself successful. He has neglected his greatest opportunities. He has sold his birthright for a mess of pottage in living for himself alone. He finds himself cold to those finer sentiments of mankind which are a true measure of greatness. Nor can an institution long exist without good will. It is the firm foundation upon which every great industry is founded. It is the power behind governments that makes them strong, just as it is the quality within the hearts of men that makes them great-that makes friends for them. From Bethlehem comes our greatest lesson in good will. Christ taught us. But we soon forget. It is his birth we celebrate with perhaps too little thought to its real significance.
