THE MAY DAY FETE
A review, by Marian Welles.
Russian music, at once western and
oriental-visions of peasants in holi-
day attire, folk dancing, Wagner-
program was complete. Joseph Sain-
ton told all about it and Ethel Lewis
and E. Bruce Metcalf proved that it'
was true.
Mr. Sainton gave first a sympathe-
tic biographical sketch of Richard
Wagner. He pictured the great mu-
sician as we like to think of him: an
idealist, a free spirit, careless of con-
ventions, forsaking his friends and
yet living on them. Then Mr. Metcalf
sang Wagner as we like to hear him
sung. His interpretations were sin-
cere and deep. He brought out the
refined volume that an artist finds in
Richard Wagner.

AT BOTH ENDS OF THE DIAGONAL

Many complaints have been laid ata
the garage door as to the troublest
brought on by the rapid increase int
automobiles. But the most recent is
more unusual than most of them: that
the asuto has been the cause of thet
scarcity of game fish. It was brought
out recently by the war department,t
which was defending itself against a
charge that its dams were depleting ,
the fish supply.
Much can be said for the truth ofl
the assertion that the auto, by bring-
ing the lakes and streams within
easy reach of many persons, has re-
duced the numbers of fish. Whereas
formerly it was necessary for the'
sportsman to journey for half a day
to reach the fishing grounds, now he
can get there in a few hours. Then,'
too, the popularity of traveling out to
summer cottages every night from the
office has sounded a death-knell for:
the fish.
However, there is the fact that, for
many, golf clubs have been substitit-
ed for bamboo poles. And also, many
who formerly spent the day waiting
for a thrill from fishy depths, now go
out and find them in dodging other
auto drivers. At any rate, the war
department has provided a servicable
and authoritative alibi for the luck-
less Isaak Walton.

"ONE O'CLOCK"
the time of the quiz, and let us choose
for the characters.:
Assistant Professor Angelo B. Swill-
snitcher.
Mr. Andrew J. Fork-who wants to
talk all the time-and say nothing.
Mr. Simon N. Nife-who would like
to keep quite as possible.
Miss Sadie Spoon-who thinks she
knows enough to talk a great deal.'
Mr. Hiram L. Plate-who, would
like to get the prof. started on some-
thing else.
Miss Minnie Cup-who knows noth-
ing but doesn't even know that.
'Mr. Eli C. Napkin--who is given to
slumber in class.
And eta.us take for the topic under
consideration, the electoral college.
The roll has been called, and then:
Ass. Prof. Swillsnitcher:

consider the Electoral College, er Mr.
Plate, has this college any actual
power?'

presently but first
Plate: But I can't answer that un-
less I know, -
Prof: (evidently rather experienc-
ed) Very well, that is what I wanted
to know, Thank You.
(Plate continues object by loud
whispers and pantomime to the effect
that it is all a jip, and that he knew
that stuff cold but.)
Prof: Miss Cup, would you answer
the question?
Miss Cup: Yes sir it has a great1
deal of power. It elects the presi-
dento of the United States....
Prof: But has it any power of
choice? Has it the right to decide
which--
Cup: Oh, yes, there are usually
two or three candidates and the elec-
toral chooses one. It has the power
of choosing one of the three.

college chosen?

A STUDENT ENTERPRISE
SUPPORT IT
A year ago, Dr. Alexander Meikle-1
John, one-time president of Amherst
college, and hailed as the liberal lead-
er of a new movement toward renais-
sance in the American educational
system, appeared in Ann Arbor. With
his earnest attacks upon the "conven-
tions" of present-day education wide-
ly heralded in the press, he stood for
the time being near the focus of stu-
dent attention,- and an audience be-
yond the capacity of Hill auditorium
sought the opportunity to hear the
man who expressed sentiments col-
lided so sharply with the venerated
customs of the past.#
Today, Dr. Meiklejohn comes again
to Ann Arbor. This time he comes as
the first speaker in the series of four
lectures which have been arranged
by the Student council as the Univer-
sity's first effort to promote Sunday
convocations for discussion of non-
sectarian questions believed to be of
vital interest to students. His sub-
ject, "Students and Their Religion,"
Dr. Meiklejohn will, no doubt, develop
in the manner so characteristic of
him. He may say things of which all
do not approve; he may advance
thoughts which he himself will freely;
admit appear highly impractical; but
above all, his addiess, if it follows
the Meiklejohn type, will be one cal-
culated to stir the so-called student
lethargy into serious thought.
At many colleges, especially those
of limited enrollment, Sunday chapel'
is an established part of the school's
program. Students attend in a body;
they listen, sometimes to men of
eminence; and, at least occasionally,
come upon a new viewpoint of ques-
tions which often form the center of
student discussions. Such a plan willi
be Inaugurated today at the Univer-
sit; upon the success of these serv-
iees during the next four weeks will
depend its continuance next year.
Surely, the Convocation series merits
active support.
HAVE YOU NO INTEREST?
If there is anything commendable in
hn institution, that institution is worth
supporting. Student government is!
no exception. If there is anything
worthwhile about student government.
