Apparently one of the mnust activ
art seasons in recent years is no
in its making, a review of the exhi-
bits which have taken place in Anl
Arbor during the present semester
indicates. It is also clearly shown
upon investigation that there are(
three organizations connected witha
the University which have been
particularly instrumental in bring-
ing about such a season.
These three organizations wich
ave been active in this line are the
University division of fine arts, the
Ann Arbor Art association and the
1chool of architecture.
'Te first one, the division of fine
arts, has sponsored four exhibition

The session will be followed by a
luncheon at the Union, at which
President Alexander G. Ruthven
will be the guest of honor.
Yesterday's program, also at
Starkweather hall, carried out the
first feature of the convention plan.
In an address by William Albee on
"Direct Mail Possibilities" the vari-;
ous alumni secretaries were en-;
lightened as to a "field that is of+
interest to every alumni group.
Following this meeting was a
banquet, after which Mrs. and Mrs.
0. J. Stahl and Mrs. and Mrs. T.
Hawley Tapping entertained all
delegates at the Union.
The pressure of the World war,
and the years of exile since have
brought many changes in the for-
mer ruler of Germany. Before the
war his features were sharp, his
mustache dark and pointed, and
his face bespoke ambition and
power.
Today his face shows traces of
age. His whiskers are grey and
some of the fire has gone from his
eyes.
But despite his 72 years the ex-
kaiser still is in good health and
his mind is keen.
The day is well-filled for Wil-
helm II. During the last year he
has concentrated his study upon
Although he never has flown in
an airplane, the ex-kaiser keeps a
close watch on aviation develop-
ments. Every ocean flight is close-
ly followed by him.
When he isn't studying religion
and archaeology, or bending his
thoughts toward proving that Ger-
many wasn't responsible for the
World war, the former monarch
chops wood, works in his garden or
takes a hike.
While he formerly worked at the
woodpile only during good weather,
Wilhelm now takes his exercise
daily. Recently he provided himself
with an oil-skin outfit that defies
rain and snow.
And looking like a North Sea
ship captain at work at his wood-
pile, the former ruler presents a
striking contrast to the Kaiser Wil-
helm of pre-war days.
Iowa's bill for operating its pub-
lic school system has increased 500
per cent since 1900, according to
the state superintendent.
Viceroy Lord Irwin
Decides to Release
Gandhi From Prison
(By Associated Press)
NEW DELHI, India, Jan. 23. -
Viceroy Lord Irwin, it was under-
stood here today, already has made
a decision to release Mahatma
Gandhi, the imprisoned Nationalist
leader. Only the details of his re-
moval from Yeroda prison, Peona,
so as to avoid a public demonstra-
tion, remain to be arranged.
The Mahatma was arrested last
May 4, more than a month after
he had led a group of All-India
National congress volunteers from
Allahabad down to the sea at
Dandhi, where they manufactured
salt in defiance of British law.
He had hoped for arrest earlier,
believing his incarceration would
align divergent elements behind
him in the passive war for inde-
pendence but for many ,weeks the
British government arrested his
aides and left him alone.
