Wife of Late
Prof. Spaldi"g
Passes Away
Word was received from be
Angeles yesterday that Effie r
Spalding, widow of the late Prof.
Volney M. Spalding, died March:
29.
Prof. Spalding was appointed a
member of the University botany
department in 1876 and was
chairman of it at the time of his
resignation in 1904.
Mrs. Spalding had been residing
in Los Angeles for 30 years prior
to'her death and had been an as-
sistant professor of botany at the
University of California.
Prof. Spalding in 1881 gave the
first formal instruction in the
United States in forestry at the
University and was active in or-
ganizing the forestry department
in 1903. Following his resignation,
made necessary by poor health, he
continued his studies in Arizona
until the time of his death in 1918.
Mrs. Spalding was 86 at the
time of her death. The body will
be brought to Ann Arbor for
burial.
Hospital Planning
Problems Aired
The special requirements and
details to be considered in the op-
eration of a veterans' hospital pre-
sent difficult problems to the
architect, H. Eldridge Hannaford,
Cincinnati architect, declared yes-
terday at the Conference on Hos-
pital Planning here.
Addressing the 75 hospital di-
rectors, administrators, consult-
ants and architects attending the
first meeting of the three-day
conference, Hannaford compared
the average 38 days hospitaliza-
tion of the veteran to the usual
9 day stay of the civilianes
Consideration must also be given
to the fact that women constitute
only about two per cent of the pa-
tients in a veterans' hospital, he
said.
In thunderstorm clouds, there
mnay be violent vertical air cur-
rents moving sometimes more
than 200 miles per hour.

sanding who have completed their
roup requirements and have at
3ast a B average, the Honors
rogram offers the opportunity to
.udy a subject of wide general in-
grest outside the usual depart-
:ental concentration programs.
"Planned to familiarize students
'ith some of the best expressions
f human thought, the Honors
rogram attempts to provide them
ith a disciplined way of thinking
vhich will be of use in meeting
nodern problems," Prof. Arthos
explained.
eactivated i4 Fall
The Honors Program, initiated
n 1939, was reactivated last fall
ifter a war-time interruption.
Studying politics and ethics, the
present group has concentrated on
he reading of Plato's The Iliad,
The Republic, and The Apology,
Aristophane's Clouds and Aris-
totle's Organon and Politics.
Next year the group will con-
inue with the reading of St. Au-
gustine's City of God, Shakes-
peare's Henry VI, and Hobbe's Le-
viathan. They will also include a
study of Locke's Essay on Human
Understanding, the Federalist, the
American Constitution, P o i n -
,are's Foundations of Science, and
Dewey's Human Nature and Con-
duct, in their program.
Meeting together once a week to
discuss their readings, the students
work in groups of six with a tutor.
Individual conferences with the
tutor are also held.
Critical Papers Assigned
Brief critical papers analyzing
the readings and comparing the
ideas of the various works are as-
signed from time to time. During
the second semester of the senior
year the students write a long es-
say on some subject pertaining to
their earlier study.
With the tutorial study group
constituting one-third of the stu-
dent's program each semester, two
courses are prescribed in addition,
and the remainder is freely elect-
ed.
Students desiring to enter the
Honors Program next fall may ap-
ply to Dean Charles H. Peake or
to Prof. Stanley Dodge.

CIRCUIT JUDGE
Judge Payne's record throughout seventeen years judicial service in Washtenaw
County is absolute proof that he possesses in an unusual degree the three essential
qualities of a good judge-
PERSONAL INTEGRITY -JUDICIAL TEMPERAMENT-
ADEQUATE LEGAL TRAINING
A graduate of the University of Michigan Law School, he holds the degree of
Juris Doctor as evidence of his superior preparation in law.
Fortified with several years of successful experience as a practicing attorney, Jay
H. Payne has spent the\major part of his adult life in our judicial service. As
Municipal Judge in Ann Arbor he has done an outstanding job, always enforcing
the law strictly and fearlessly but ever dispensing justice humanely and impartially,
with equality to all, and without regard to the color, creed, politics or social position
of the persons appearing before him.
"To do the best judicial work, or even to learn the best methods for
doing it, years of research and experience are required. Many judges do
good work from the beginning of their service, but as in other work, all
can learn to do better work in the hard school of experience.
The policy of advancement from a position of lesser responsibility to one
of greater, such as prevails throughout industry and other fields of
human activities, should apply to our judiciary."

A Personal Statement from
Judge Jay H, Payne,
As my campaign fot promotion to the Circuit Court comes to a close, may I
express my sincere thanks and appreciation to the many fine people of Washtenaw
County who have assisted me on a voluntary and purely non-partisan, non-political basis.
I have not sought the active help of any clique or group, nor of lawyers, law
enforcing agencies and others having daily business with the courts;
Since I have insisted that every cent spent in the campaign come from my own
personal funds, I have been unable to employ highly paid campaign personnel or use
other expensive campaign method
The tireless work which has been done for me by many, will ever remain in my mind
and heart as proof that no man can have greater wealth than friends who are true.
Thank you sincerely from the bottom of my heart.
JAY H. PAYNE.
