It's true that we're looking for the "right" solution to problems confronting us now. As we seek world peace, we talk perennially of "permanent" peace, but rarely do we obtain even the degree of sta- bility in the world which marks off a long era or epoch in history. Conditions are constantly changing, new forces are emerging to dispel our dreams of permanency, and yet, political candidates are constantly proposing foolproof, cure-all solutions to our problems. Both major political parties are guilty of such boasts. How can we tell when candidates are hiding their real intentions behind im- practcial boasts that just "sound" good? The fundamental error lies in our approach. First, we must re- alize that permanence is only an illusion. What happens is this: we reach out for a perfect and permanent solution, then, if we realistically analyze the consequences, we wonder why we fail to achieve even a temporary stability. This struggle for permanence has brought us a galaxy of pro- posals in the international field, ranging from treaties that bind nations in regional alliances to wider federations for world govern- ment. Secondly, we must make use of the tools of time, faith and a constant effort to improve. Time gives a problem the benefit of a rational solution. Faith, whether it be in a God, fellow mankind, or both, helps one to continue in spite of obstacles. And the effort to improve insures against static complacency. Man cannot give up hoping and working for a permanent solution to problems that beset him and still retain any purpose in his life. But, neither can he, in reaching for the impossible, forfeit the possible. Thus, when we try to decide which of two competent and intelli- gent men can best carry out the job of president of our country, it might be better to look beyond the name-calling, the impractical boasts and "permanent" solutions. Rather, a close examination of the personal and party ideals for which each candidate stands might provide a good test of what he could and would do. But, such an eval- cation will not be permanent.

Store Hours: Monday thru Saturday 9:30 to 5:30 A By BOB BALL Th Volunteer Services Depart- ment of the University Hospital of- fers an opportunity for students J C=O t~h and townspeople to bring patients a touch of the "outside world" and friendship during their stay in the Hospital. Giving a few hours of their time in the several services about 200 students alone contributed a total of 12000 hours last year. The majority of patients at the Hospital come from towns outside Ann Arbor, leaving family and friends behind. Although patients receive the best of professional care, volunteers can perfrom many "extra" personal services. Friendly Services When a student offers his serv- ices as a volunteer to the hospi- tal, he assumes a part not only in giving friendly services to the patients, but the added satisfac- tion of understanding the hospital itself, its many functions, prob- lems and services. Student volunteers are required to give 3 hours per week for one semester to a particular service, About eleven services are pres- ently organized by the Hospital, though one of these depends on older adults only. As Chaplain Assistants, volun- teers either staff Sunday Chapel services for patients or contact new hospital patients during the week to inform them of these serv- ices. Protestant, Catholic and Jew- ish volunteers contact patients of of their own faith. Students may volunteer to as- sist in amusing children in the Children's Ward. Often combined with other serv- ices, the Feeding Service volun- teers assist patients who have dif- ficulty in feeding themselves. Volunteers in the Hospitality Service visit with patients on nurs- ing units and do personal services; for them, such as reading, writing letters, and shopping. In the patient's library, volun- teers take the book and magazine carts to the patient's bedside and distribute magazines to the Out- patient Clinic waiting rooms. Physical Therapy Volunteers also help physicall therapists in the gymnasium and occupational therapists in their shop. Students or adults interested act as teacher's helpers in wards, the school library, the workshop and classrooms and escort children to and from the playroom and the ward. School recreation volunteers aid the Recreation Leader to plan and provide programs and parties for various units and by taking the game cart to the patient's bedside. Lastly, adult volunteers assist the Board of Public Health Nurs- ing Association by helping regis- ter and prepare babies for medi- cal examination in the Well Baby Clinic.
