Lantern night, the occasion which
means to Michigan women what Cap
night means to men, will occur in con-
junction with the Freshman pageant,
May 24. According to tradition, this
event signifies the official advance of
classes, the seniors passing on their
lanterns. to the juniors, the juniors
giving their h-oops to the sophomores.
Because of the excavation for the
building of the Women's field house,
the procession will this year be mod-
ifieti to suit the field available, while
it may be necessary to seat the au-
dience on temporary bleachers, in-
stead of in th'e natural amphitheater
as in the past.
Margaret McNally, '27Ed, is general
chairman of Lantern night activities.
She will be assisted by (he following
committee chairmen; programs, Eve-
lyn Ogborn, '28; hoops and lanterns,
Louise Rittenhouse, '27; properties,
Gladys Appelt, '28Ed; songs, Louise
Cody, '30E1d; publicity, Mary Louise
Murray, '28; decorations, Arlene Uns-
worth, '28; patrons, Lucy Seeley, '28.
Definite plans have not been complet-
ed, but the usual program of events
will be essentially followed. After the
usual picnic supper, the Freshman
pageant will take place followed by a
dance drama given by upperclass wo-
men.
STATISTICS SHOW
HATS UNPOPULAR
Nine out of ten women prefer not
to wear hats to classes! This start-
ling admission came from the test!-
mony of more than 60 women who
were interviewed' on the subject. And
yet, in spite of the feeling against the
custom, they all do it.f
In fact, out of the 60 women in
question, only four demon'strated
their disapproval of wearing hats by
actually leaving them at home. Most
of them felt that the practice was
harmful 'from a health standpoint to
the hair, but nevertheless put their
independence in their pockets and
conformgd to the unwritten law. Only
one girl in 30, wears a hat because !
she likes to!
GLEE CLUB GIVES

Members of the University Girls'
Glee club entertained the Freshman

nished the entertainment. The fresh-
man girls gave a cantata and 'the
University glee club responded with
songs from the tour. Refreshmen s
were served later at which time Geor-
gia ;Vandewalker, on behalf of the
freshmen, presented Miss Eunice
Northrup whose engagement was re-
cently announced with a carved sil-
ver vase.

Suddenly I was conscious of a jolt,
and was saved from falling only by a
firm hand, 'Well, Miss Mary Gorown',

Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Dear Mr. Sink:
Ann Arbor, Michigan, has made itself nationally famous by the great
music festival that is held there each year under the direction of the Uni-
versity School of Music. 1 The festival is to be held again this year with as
great an array of soloists as ever before, this being the thirty-fourth annual
event. The musical director is Earl V. Moore, the orchestra conductor
Frederick Stock, the children's conductor Joseph E. Maddy. The soloists
are Rosa Ponselle, Betsy Lane Shepherd, Lois Johnston, Ernestine Schu-
mann-Heink, Sophie Braslau, Elsie Baker, Armand Tokatyan, Arthur
Hackett, Lawrence Tibbett, William Simmons, James Wolfe, Lea Lubo-
schutz, and Ernest Hutcheson. There are to 'be four days of music-
May 18 to 21 inclusive.
It is by such accomplishments that America is made musical. Music
in the great cities of the country is limited in its appeal, limited in its influ-
ence. It arouses no such inspirational influnece as does a festival of this
sort. The daily musical offerings of New York or Chicago have far less
effect on the emotional side of those who attend them as to these festival
performances, where there is a festive spirit as well as a spirit of veneration
for the composer, for the artist, and for art as an animate and important
thing.
There is something' in the human mind, or in human sentiment, that
demands a place or a thing of worship. Each of us Inogs for his own little
Mecca of thought or ideal. Such festivals, as these held each year in Ann
Arbor satisfy this need and awaken in many visitors, and perhaps in many
who are unable to' be present, the first conception of the meaning and delight
of this great cultural and emotional influence we call art. The Ann Arbor
festival does more than 'merely give a few programs of music executed by
great artists-it places a new cog in the wheel of spiritual, mental and moral
progress in America, the importance of which cannot be over-estimated.
