"Self-government for a student-
body is a relatively new idea. Where
traditions' have had centuries to en-
trench themselves before this modern
theory was heard of, the attitudes as
to the collective responsibility of the
student-body for its own welfare'dif-
fer surprisingly from those that Amer-
ican students take for granted' The
absolute individualism of the Euro-
pean university where government is
represented by student 'clubs', rather3
like the independent city-republics of
the Middle Ages, illustrates one ex-
treme; while the English university 1
which locks its men in at night and
patrols the streets with proctors gives,
a form of paternalism very far re-
moved from an American's idea of
self-government,-but apparently un-
objectionable to our English cousins.-
"In co-educational institutions the1
questions out of which systems of self-1
government arise are more likely to,
be felt acutely by the women than
the men. At least self-government in
a definite form has more often begunI
among the women students and hast
found more elaborate developmentI
among the women than among men
throughout this country. Its chiefc
difficulty with either sex, or both, has
h:een a great indefiniteness as to itsi
limits. As the student-body is not re-I

tem of government throughout the
world has an economic basis, it is evi-
dent that the university as such mustj
have some responsibilities not those
of the students, the query being justj
what these are and where the two sys-
tems of government meet. It makes
university life rather like that once
enjoyed in the debatable tract between
New York state, Massachusetts and
Vermont before an acknowledged
boundary-line had been fixed between
them.
"At Michigan an interest in self-
government was late to develop. The,
year 1914 saw the first written consti-
tution for women, and this was a body
of agreements applying only to those
who were interested and who volun-
tarily joined the Women's league. It
represented the most thoughtful and
socially-minded women, but it un-
doubtedly represented a minority and
these were free to make what rules
they pleased since such regulations
only applied to the women studentsf
who 'belonged.' But about half a,
dozen years later the Regents approv-
ed of the request of the Women's
league to make menibership in its
ranks automatic, a part of being a wo-
man-student at Michigan; and as a

Mr. Fuller has continued

OR eight weeks during
July and August. we offer you
an opportunity to put class
room theories to the test-to
acquire under trained sales-
men a business experience that will
be invaluable later on-and last, but
nowise least, a chance to bring the
emaciated bankroll to its former ro-
bust state.
This summer as in previous years,
Woman's World-a magazine enter-
ing 1,325,000 homes monthly-invites
ambitious college men to enter its
subscription sales organization, to
work shoulder to shoulder with sea-
soned veterans, to learn the thrill
that comes with getting a prospect's
- name on the dotted line and to reap
the cash rewards that industry and
ability invariably bring.
The work is dignified, intensely in-
teresting and keeps you out in the
open. No other branch of modern
business offers such large or such
quick returns as does the sales de-
partment. This 'is a real oppor-
tunity and we will help you make the
grade.
A letter or postcard will bring you'
full details without obligation, to-
gether with a booklet of letters from
other college men in our employ.
Write promptly, please, as units are
now being filled.
