-mie"--are splitting this week at thie Bonstelle
Civic Theatre ingDetroit with three New York
favorites heading the cast of the former and Rob-
ert Henderson, director of the theat're, playing
Prince Patiomkin in the latter.
Geoffrey Kerr, remembered in Detroit and Ann
Arbor for his excellent work in "The Animal
Kingdom" and "There's AlIways Juliet," is giving a
dashing and distinguished performance as Cap-
tain .Bluntchli, "the 'chocolate soldier" of "Arms
and the Man," while Violet Heming is charming
and capable as ever in her interpretation of Raina
in the same play.
Ernest Cossart, lead character man of the New
York Theatre Guild, has made Raina's father
probably Shaw's funniest and most rollicking
character. Puffing and stewing and steaming
through a part that calls for a type of comedy un-
tisually hearty and robust for Shaw, he is suc-
ceeding in stealing most of the bouquets for him-
self this week. "Arms and the Man" is a thor-
oughly enjoyable satire; it is being played by a
peculiarly well-cast and intelligent company.
The Bonstelle's presentation makes "The Great
Catherine" just the riotous, bumptious farce that
Shaw intended it to be. The unrestrained ro-
mances of the famous queen and the exploits of
the drunken prince represent a humorous study
of which only Shaw could have been capable.
"Arms and the .Man" is being shown Wednes-
day, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Feb. 13, 15,
17, 18, and 19, with a matinee on Saturday, while
"The Great Catherino" will be presented ThUrs-
day, Feb. 16, matinee and night, and Sunday, Feb.
19, matinee. The latter play is being preceded by
"The Twelve Pound Look," by James M. Barrie.

The word "hygiene" comes from Hygeia, a,
Greek goddess, said to have presided at the temple
to which people went for relief from illness. While-
science rather than religion is the basis of present
day health work, the classical origin of the word
makes "hygiene" an acceptable term for its pres-
ent use.
The word is variously defined, but represents,
the application of several sciences and arts to
man's welfare in the preservation and promotion
of health.
It is of considerable practical importance to
determine just what is the basic problem of hy-
giene. There is much to suggest that hygiene is
principally concerned with helping man adjust
himself to unnatural, artificial situations. This
unnatural condition in which man finds himself
is the state of present day life as opposed to the
biologically more natural life of lower animals or,
man in the most primitive existence from which
he has evolved. In short, hygiene is much con-
cerned with helping man to use his intelligence
better to handle certain unfavorable products of
civilization. Much that man does in response to
the necessities of civilized life is at the expense
of a physical and mental constitution "designed"
or developed for much different circumstances
of living. The biological adaption of our bodies
has been much behind the developments of civil-
ized life.
It is a rare extremist, who is so enthusiastic in
the "return to nature movement" as to suggest
that we give up our civilization voluntarily. It is
probably a much wiser man who advocates that
we take advantage of our increasing knowledge;
And use it to help us in making the best possible;
adjustments to our admittedly unfavorable situa-
tions.
While civilization is recognized as responsible
for social strains at many points, the province of
hygiene may be fairly limited to even common
sense considerations of physical and mentalt
health.
Without attempting to be more than suggestive
the following situations may be listed as problems
of hygiene resulting from the demands of our
1. The over refinement and artificial prepara-
tion of our foods.
2. The prolonged periods spent in-doors under
conditions of artificial over-heating and exclusion
of sunlight.
3. The prolonged periods of nervous strain and
long distant fears, incident to modern life.
4. The reduced amount of physical activity.
5. The extreme demands upon the use of the
s eyes for near vision, starting at very young ages.
6. The social demands for control of the repro-
ductive function for from ten to twenty years be-
yond biological maturity.

URINQ the recent examination pe-
riod more than one student was,
cisheartened to find that the library shelf con-1
taining reference books for a certain course be- it'
came miraculously bereft of important volumess
on the day before 'the examination. These booksc
reappeared a day or two later, obviously having
Ieen taken out during the important period in
violation of library rules.
The library staff makes a certain effort to pre- a
vent such occurrences by removing much-wanted
books to a shelf behind the desk, but it is bothc
impossible and undesirable to keep the accurate,
and complete check on books which would be
necessary if these practices were to be effectually
prevented.
one of the greatest conveniences of the library
is the reference books on the study hall shelves
which may be obtained by the simple process of
reaching for them. Substitution of any other sys-
tem would involve tiresome delay, much extra z
Work on the part of the librarians, and would robz
the reference shelf of much of its usefulness. I
It is unfortunate that there are a few studentst
on the campus who are selfish enough to abuse j
5o outrageously a privilege which is granted main-r
ly for their convenience. They would protest, andt
rightly, if the cumbersome rules of some libraries
were enforced here, but they show small appre-
ciation for the liberality of the present system.4
One wonders again whether there is any founda-
tion on which to build an honor system among;
such students. "Honor among thieves" doesn'tt
help the rest of us.
A Catch-Phrase,
Cures The Depression...
WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST has
W decidedto cure the national de-
pression by a patriotic sounding catch phrase,
"Buy American."
Not that Mr. Hearst is sincere. He knows that
"Buy American" means "Sell American" and he
knows that this would plunge our nation .into a
depression that we might not come out of for*
scores of years.
The outcome of the "Buy American" policy
would be that foreign markets would all even-
tually be closed to American goods. This would
put our manufacturers into a slump from which
they might never recover.
'In depression times, restrictions on trade be-
cause of nationalistic principles do not constitute
a cure, they constitute Poison.
No, Mr. Hearst is not sincere in advocating his
patriotic catch phrase. If he were, he would buy
the paper on which his newspapers are printed in
the United States, instead of in Montreal, Can-
ada.
But the expression is patriotic and it boosts the
street sales of the paper and every street sale is
three cents.

First, with the exception of Russia and Japan
;here is not a single nation in the Orient that
can boast of real independence.
Secondly, the Orientals from Northern Africa
o the most extreme boundaries of China areI
eginning to realize the unhappy situation that
hey have gradually drifted into under the pres-
sure of two workihg forces; namely, internal so-
cial disorder and external exploitation. With this
realization naturally grows general discontent.
Consequently the whole Orient today is pulsating
with energy.
Now I ask: What is the duty of Oriental stu-
dents before this unprecedented wave of unrest?
The most laconic answer would be, to guide and
direct that energy. Instead of this, however, what
do we see? Japan tearing at the heart of China.
China renewing its youth and accumulating its
immense forces for a counter attack on Japan.
India busy with its non-violence movement.
Arabia still dreaming of a world-wide Muhamme-
dan empire, with the res ult that seventy-five
million Muhammedans in India are not giving the
necessary support to Gandhi. Mustapha Kemal
believing that by exchanging the Arabic alphabets
to Latin ones he would succeed in convincing Eu-
rope that Turkey is no more the home of "terrible
Turks." The most heterogenous display of energy
that history ever recorded.#
While this display of energy is an indication of
life it must be remembered that a nmisdirected
energy may cause further disintegration. For ex-
ample, in the long run China's patience will over-
come Japan's nervous disposition. And the so-
called League of Nations has already hinted atj
making Manchuria a mandate. Perhaps Russia
and America, or Germany and Italy will be in-
vited to assume mandatory power over it-of
course provided they are willing to do so.
Briefly this might happen.. Further disintegra-
tion, more exploitation. More exploitation, more
imperialistic capitalism. Worldwide imperalistic
capitalism, worldwide revolution.'If I were elo-
quent, I would say God help the human race!
Let' Oriental students remember, the murdered
may be as guilty as the murderer. And we, by
pr-ostituting our countries, thereby making them
an open field for competition, are merely inviting
exploitation, increasing friction, and adding fuel
to a worldwide revolution. History is not blind.
What then must we do? The answer is simple.
We should fence our yard and keep people from
fighting over it. We should close our doors before
Western capitalism, and in doing so help the
Westerners to readjust their economic civilization.
Private enterprise has no end of ambition. Having
exhausted the natural resources of the West it
will now begin preying on the resources of the
Orient. By allowing it to spread we are merely
standing in the way of the hoped for adjustment.
Today capitalism is at the crossroads. Check it.
fHelp the Western civilization to readjust itself.
There are many good things about the Westen
civilization. We should- not stand by and watch
it crumble.
'Three courses of action are open before us: tc
fight capitalism with the force of our culture, b3

NATURE IS GRAND
She has individuality,
A friendly personality,
A sort of nice banality
That makes you like her way.
And she dates with regularity
And dances with dexterity
And chatters with celerity
Of subjects light and gay.
But don't mention sociology
Or try to talk cosmology
Or even plain psychology;
She'd so much rather play.
It's too bad, for her mentality
Is surely a reality.
She's proved it with finality-
She got twelve hours of A.

HOLIDAY
As far as we have been able to find out, all
this business about the Governor declaring
this week a legal holiday is just a fake. No-
body but the bankers are getting a vacation,
and they've been on one ever since somebody
set the gasoline can too close to the stove
down in Wall Street about four years ago.
Anyway, closing the banks has given us a
chance we've been waiting for for a long time.
We never have any money anyway, but now
we can holler just as loud as anybody else
about being short of cash. Comstock, the
Great Leveler.
We've got it all figured out. According to
the papers, they are bringing 350 secret serv-
ice men to Michigan this week, so now it's
a cinch that they only closed the banks up
because there were rumors that some of them
had some real, honest-to-gosh cash in their,
and the under-cover boys are here to check
up.
