PATERNALISTI, TORANNY
Seemingly as a result of sensation-
al charges made recently by a former
student at the Unkersity of Illinois,
bat riotous and questionable parties
had been held on mxany 8pecial foot-
ball trains, the announcement has
been made by the Unlivesity of Chi-.
cago that there will be no miore spec-
ial trains from that institution to in-
tercollegiate co tests. 'This action,
although very ely taken with the
purpose of removing one f the bad
influences in college life itChicago,
so closely akia to being paternalis-
tic tyranny that the method used
seems doubtful of attaining any de
gree of success.
The authorities who instigated this
ruling seemed to overlook the fact
that misconduct on these trains is
only the indication of a "disease" and
that i il be impossible to cure that
disease by merely removing the symp-
toms. The root of the disorder must
be kii' I Wbore it will be possible to
assure pro"r and gentlemanly con-
duct on the part of students at all oc-
casions. If students cannot go to foot-
ball games by special trains, thereby
securing the advantage of greatly re-
duced railroad rates, they will find
ether means of transportation, means
in which there will be even more in-
centive to "run wild" than there
w uld be on a train limited solely to
students. The use of the automobile
will be increased and the temptations
and risks attendant to such trips will
give the "disease" even more oppor-
tunity to increase.
Possibly there have 'een special
rains on which the conduct of the
students has not been eactly what it
should have been, but this is the n=-
ispalrather than the regular occur-
ire ce. If such things are to happen,
thi y Ill take place despite a faculty
y an on special trains. In addition,
much moi' can -beaccomplished, at
least in a much more pleasant way,
by-an-attitude on the part of the fac-
ulty of giving brotherlyadvice, of
"e Iin tle cent to remove his
faults, rather than by attempting to
dominate the student with a paternal-
istic regulation.
EASIER ORIENTATION
A commendable step has been taken
by University officials, as one phase
in thq task of "humanizing" educa-
tion by initiating the advisory system
are strange, bluebooks hold unlimited
terrors, and many courses are in
fields foreign to the freshman. It is
little wonder that the incoming stu-
dent is unable to acclimate himself to
his new environment and meet the
demands that are made upon him,
during the week when he needs his
soundest judgment for the selection of
courses. But the most serious results I
may not appear until perhaps the
fourth year' of residence, when the
student discovers that he has erred in
his choice rand is about to enter the
world unprepared for the business or
profession, to his liking, or that
through inadequate knowledge of vo-
catons and no guidance during his
firat and second year, he has prepared
hhself for something that will a11
ways be distasteful to him.
So the new system is doubly lauda-
ble. Anything that puts within a
freshman's reach greater knowledge
of vocations and the courses of the
University so that he will be free to
choose in the wisest manner, and that
will simplify the complicated method
of registration so that he is sooner
able to orient himself, is worthy of
the most respectful consideration of
faculty and students alike.
TAKING THE STICK
OUT OF "PUNCH"
An unexpected result of prohibition
in America has cropped up in Eng-
land in the action of "Punch," Eng-
land's "pleasant jester of Fleet
street," which has closed its columns
to all liquor advertising beginning
next March. This action stamps the
famous humor magazine as the pio-
neer exponent of anti-alcoholic jour-
nalism among the English dailies
and weeklies, which have been serv-
ing the brewers and distillers, at a
huge yearly profit, since 'the begin-
hing of periodical advertising.
Although accused of "biting the
hand that fed it," the management of
the paper has signified its intention
to absolutely forbid liquor advertise-
ments in its columns after the pres-
ent contractshhave expired. The be-
ginning of the end of widespread pub-
licity given to strong drink in Eng-
land seems to be heralded by this ac-
tion, which is indicative of a changing
sentiment in England regarding alco-
holic beveages.
Such a radical change of policy is
seen by a correspondent of the "Man-
chester Guardian," one of Britain's
foremost dailies, as follows: "Punch's
ehange of policy will certainly be a
great surprise to the public. "Punch'
has suffered a great change since its
start, when it was a licensed Bohe-
mian tilting at everything, especially
the vested interests. In mid-Victorian
days it became "Mr. Punch," with ev-
ery middle-class virtue, and in our
own day it has become rather donnish
in gay and fashiepable ways. . . . I
drink is to be abolished from
"Punch's" advertisements, is it alsc
to be abolished from its humor?"
When one considers that for over
eighty years, this humorous periodica
has' been the purveyor of information
regarding the selling of liquor to al
parts of the world, its recent action
is of no mean consequence. Certainly
it is at least an indication of a move-
ment toward sobriety among the pub-
lishers in England.
SERVICE-PLUS
The rewards of holding political of-
fice are usually so fleeting and trans-
itory that it is generally a sense o
duty which keeps many of the frner
men in public positions of responsi-
bility. Such seems to be the case wit
Governor Alvan T. Fuller of Massa-
%husetts, who, in addition to serving
as an able governor of the state, has
consistently refused to draw salaries
due him from the political offices
which he has held.
The books of the Massachusetts
State 'treasurer's office show that Gov-
ernor Fuller has never cashed any
checks which have been made out t(
him while serving as a representa-
tive in the state legislature, a con-
gressman, as lieutenant governor, o2
as governor. This sum now amounts
to more than $50,000.
Few men are financially able to em-
tlate Governor Fuller. Fewer stilt
would do so, even were they substan-
Vially situated. Governor Fuller does
not "point with pardonable pride" al
his stand. He modestly states thai
he considers it a duty every man owes
to his country to render public serv.
ice and that he himself deserves nc
particular credit. Governor Fuller
places himself in the peculiar bul
praiseworthy position of rendering
"service-plus" to his 'tate:
After whooping it up over a lasting
Franco-German friendship, foreign
minister Stresemann confidentially
tells the home folks that its all th
bunk and that France really started
the war.

spe'ak for themselves, but a word
must be said here about the frosh.
It seems that the stores are offering
pots in different sizes this year, so
that the well-dressed frosh will be
able to get a bonnet that suits his
particular head. The next thing from
the clothiers will be feathers and fan-
cy designs to be worn on the pots.

BULLETIN TO FROSH
Frosh may well look with envy at
Kalamazoo college, where the frosh
this year were treated to a 15-minute
period of hazing under the watchful
eyes of the faculty. And then they
are to walk in peace the rest of the
year. American colleges are getting
to be so wild and uncivilized.

Speaking of mistakes, we ought to
explain one in yesterday's column.
The letter about the pretzel benders

dark and sinister name that we hasten

one, before 1. T. hunts us up with a

ion concerts and those of the Extra
Concert series are anihounced and
contain the usual group of great and
near greats, the Detroit Symphony is
still a feature-and Talley and Mayes
will sing. At a glance the outlined
program contains a really unusual
group of celebrities, and the box office
success of 'everal of the concerts is
assured.
The Choral Union concerts are as
follows:
October 18-Frieda Hempel, sopra-
no.
November 5-The English Singers.
December 13-Detroit Symphony
Orchestra.
January 17--Miarion Talley, sopra-
no.
January 31-Fritz Kreisler, vic-in-j

AN UNDERGROUND R. R.
It's kind of hard going for the frosh
this first week. Even if they can sur-
vive the first week'saassignments and
lectures, there is always the Soph
Peril. A revival of the old "under-
ground railroad" would be welcomed,
we are sure. As we 'remember it,
barns used to play an important part
in the passenger equipment of this
first subway, but probably the Eco-
nomics building would serve the same
purpose, and has the advantage of
being centrally located on the cam-
pus. U hall, also would do, and we
have a sneaking idea it was part of
the original railroad.

WE GOTTA DECORATE 'EM!
If buggies become popular, the in-
genuity and inspiration that went into
the painting and decorating of the liz-
zies would not be lost to the world.
Such an art must be preserved. Just
to prove that this profession can ex-
tend its labors to include buggies,
ROLLS today begins (a series of
"BUGGY GRAMS." What's yours?

December 4-Roland Hayes, tenor-
January 10-Russian Cossack choir.
February 21 --Detroit Symphony or-
chestra.
Frieda Hempel who has been a Met-
ropolitan prifia donna for 19 years
can be expected to attract an audience
drawn to the magic of her name and
to the memory of the molten soprano
voice that has for yeiars been one of
the featured Metropolitan attractions.'
Hempel of today may be a different
woman (extensive concert work is a
bad sign) and the years may not have:
been kind, but it is certain that she
will be well received. It will be diffi-
cult to duplicate Schumann-leink's
success.
Marion Talley appearing on Jan-
uary 19 presents no publicity prob-
lem; a fortune- has been spent on that
alrea4y, and she' s eaIly the best
known of the Otto Kahn prodigies.
As to her merit, whether she willl
ever be a great artist, whether she
has a voice, and what she will do
with it, that must be left to eddy in
her wake. Marinelli at last year's
Festival remarked that she had ruined
her voice in an attempt to sing Elsa;
Sundelius, also Metropolitan and per-
haps jealous asserted that she was the
only friend Talley could boast at the
Metropolitan; Ann Arbor's vote can
not be cast till after her appearance.
Fritz Kresler is too national a
character to need either advertise-
ment or criticism; he will pack the
house. Both as a personality and art-
ist he has one of thewidest circle of
friends the largest following of any
musician 'in the country. He is an
expert technician -although perhaps
not as great as Heifetz-and has an
abundance of expression and tone.
Roland Hayes has furnished mate-
rial for too many a thesis on the arce
problems not to be known, and his ,ap-
pearance in Ann Arbor has been
awaited for years. He has been called
the world's greatest tenor, the proph-
et for the New Negro and his mother
was born in slavery. These facts
have gained him international 'reputa-
tioft and have made him a fortune.
His strength lies in the beauty of his
voice and the novelty of his program:
negro spirituals, plantation melodie~s
and classical 'selections. Certainly
one of the greatest singers of the cen-
tury, his appearance on the roster o'
artists marks the Choral Union and
Extra Concert series as exceptional--
perhaps the best in the history of th
organizations.

THE DETROIT TREATERS
At the New Detroit Opera House.
commencing Sunday night, Octber
3rd for one week only prior to the
opening at the Illinois theater in Chi-
cago, Alexander A. Aarons and VIn
ton Freedley will present "Tip-Toes"
direct from a season's run at the Lib-
erty theater In New 'York city. The
cast headed by Queenie Smith, who as
a personality is one of the most inter-
esting eading dalies in American mu-
sical comedy, and bar Marilyn Miller
is the most popular, is the same a F
that of the New York show and pos-
sesses a dancing ensemble that is the
best from Broadway.

The very large increase in our business for the past six years
i'dicatcs that you have told your friends what unusual service is to be had
r Rir's Pen Shop. You have done both your friends and us a service.
Rider's Pen Shop is not an ordinary pen counter like all the
rest. It is a service shop equipped with ever.ything needed to supply your
nnediaite needs, with thousands of parts for replacing breakage, and what
is must essential, qualified, skilled pen makers always in charge; the only
penmakers to be found in the state. "Knowledge is power." "A little
learning is a dangerous thing." This is as true as applied to your fountain
pen needs as to human surgery.
We know pens' and in our selection of merchandise are not
;uided by flashy colors, extensive advertising or seductive guarantees. In
the selection of merchandise we take into account three important factors,
r-',od writing quality, appearance and durability, and protect you from the
Ialls of buying pens that do not rneet these req uirements.
We skillfully repair your old pens and make them as good
as their condition will permit and do it in 24 hours or less.
We make a good allowance for your old pen in exchange for
one of our Rider 'Masterpens, our own nake and a general favorite among
studcits who can afford the best; a pen which holds from 5 to 12 times,
as much ink as other pens, has unequalled writing quality, will outwear
se veral pens of any other make, and most important is serviced by the
