Gaiety Of Spring Is Reflected
In Mirrors O New Compacts

Hayden Talks
On Education
In Philippines
Concentration, Uniformity
Are Stressed In Speech
To Alumnae Club
Prof. Joseph Hayden spoke to mem-
bers of the Michigan Alumnae Club
on "Education in the Philippines" at
a meeting of this group at 2:30 p.m.
yesterday in the League.
Uniformity of education and con-
centration of the system at the hands
of insular authorities at Manila are
the outstanding characteristics of the
system of instruction in the islands,
Professor Hayden stated. This uni-
formity is necessary for a people liv-
ing in the tropics, he believes, and has
developed here a spirit of nationality.
The majority of teaching is for
grades below high school, the speaker
stated; 80 per cent of the people being
in primary grades, 15 per cent in
intermediate schools and only 5 per
cent in high school. All teaching is
carried on in the English language,
he continued, which gives a large
number of persons the opportunity to
become teachers, professional people,
holders of government offices and
clerical positions because of their
command of the language.
The people of the Philippines are
very proud of their educational sys-
tem, Professor Hayden remarked, and
are more willing to give appropria-
tions through the legislature for this
cause than for improvements in
health conditions. There are now
7,000 students enrolled in the Uni-
versity of the Philippines, he stated.
The main purpose of the Michigan
Alumnae Club is the collecting of a
fund for scholarships and fellowships.
All dues are being used now solely
for the G. Carl Huber fellowship. Any
woman who has at any time attended
the University is eligible for mem-
bership in the club.
Mrs. A. O. Lee, president of the club,
introduced the speaker and an-
nounced that Miss Alice Alexander
would speak at the next meeting on
April 4. Dean Clarence Yoakum will
be guest speaker for the May meeting,
she continued.
Engagements
Of Graduates
Announced
A betrothal of interest on the Uni-
versity of Michigan campus is that
of Margaret Thompson, '32, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Thompson,
of Detroit, whose engagement to
Pierre Victor Heftler, '34L, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Victor Heftler of Grosse
Pointe, was announced recently at the
Detroit Golf Club.
Miss Thompson was women's editor
of the Michigan Daily in 1932 and
was voted most popular girl on cam-
pus the same year. She is a member
of Collegiate Sorosis. She was also
active in Frosh Project, Soph Cab-
aret, and J.G.P. Mr. Heftler attended
Dartmouth College and is a graduate
of the School of Engineering and
the Law School of the University of
Michigan.
Another engagement of interest is
that of Miss Blanche Plamondon
Smith, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.
Henry Smith of Detroit and Charles
W. Bishop, '33L, son of the late Mr.
and Mrs. Horace M. Bishop of Detroit.
Miss Smith attended Sacred Heart
Convent and Liggett School. Mr.
Bishop is a graduate of the University
of Michigan and is a member of
Delta Chi and Phi Delta Phi.

Both Small And Massive
Sizes Are Featured In
Pastel Colors
By SYLVIA LANG
The fresh gaiety of spring is echoed
in this spring's intriguing array of
new compacts. Tiny compacts prove
to be popular-one style is very small
and round and made of either gold
or silver on the sides and bottom -
the top being either black or white
with a design in the middle of the
same metal as the sides and bottom.I
The design may also assume the
form of a cameo. A simple adaption
of these compacts is one that is made
of either gold or silver in a lacy form
or the plain compact with a mirror
bottom.
A Yardley compact of gold is des-
tined to become one of the favorites
of the season. It is a double com-
pact, rectangular in shape, with a
mirrored top which slides off reveal-
ing powder and rouge in separate
compartments joined by a hinge. The
convenient and odd manner in which
this compact works encourages one

to keep one's make up always fault-
less.
Delicate pastel colors, which are
invariable associated with spring; are
t:;king a salient role in the new com-
pacts. Coty features a lovely gold
compact lavishly trimmed with
aquamarine on the top and on the
protruding sides. Round or square
yellow compacts are very much in
demand.
An interesting compact is a red
square embellished on top with a
needlepoint design of flowers. An-
other compact ornamented with
needlepoint is of grey outlined in
gold around the sides, and encircling
the top where it opens -the top be-
ing decorated by the needlepoint pat-
tern.
Compacts which are massive in size
:e very much in the vogue this
spring. Large square silver or gold
compacts resembling cigarette cases
are popular. These gold or silver
compacts are also featured in a va-
r jety of quaint shapes. They are,
as a rule, devoid of any ornamenta-
tion, but some of them are relieved
by a small University of Michigan
seal.
Mammoth round black or white
compacts with brilliants around the
sides are very attractive with dressy
aternoon clothes or informal dresses.
A3!though these compacts are very
large, they are thin and give a dainty
appearance. Compacts designed es-
pecially for very formal affairs are
made of either white or gold silk, are
round in shape and are, also, very
thin.
