'he true theory of education is'
guiding of ignorance by intellig-
Sinto knowledge. Its true aim is
development of each individual to
be point of highest excellence."
can Andrew Fleming West of the
uate school of Princeton univer-
answered his own question, "Is
e a true story of education" in a
ire delivered last night in the Na-
1 Science'auditorium. Dean West
been dean of the graduate school
rinceton since 1901, and is con-
red one of the greatest authorities
he country on the subject of edu-
on.
iree theories of education are the
theories according to Dean West.
first is that education should be
erialistic. The making of a liv-
is certainly important. the materi-
idvantages of an education must
be overlooked. It is the cardinal
ciple of our civilization. And yet
making of a living is not half as
ortant as the making of life worth
e. -"Life will be worth while when
student understands the world in
ch he lives," he said. For'the pro-
understanding of thsi world and
great problems, the student en-
iters. three spheres of education.
he first is mathematics, physicsfi
nistry and biology. The student
ild know the basic principles back
le running of this earth, he should
erstand the elements that make
he universe, and he should under-
.d life and its beginnigs."

EDITORIAL
THE SUMMER SESSION
During the summer months the Un-
iversity provides for the citizens of
the state a college session equal in
quality, if not in scope to the program
of the regular year. In addition spe-
cial features such as excursions are
added, which are not possible during
the regular term, due to inclement
weather.
The lecture program of the Summer
session is one bof its most noteworthy
features. Men of acknowledged
achievements in, science and letters,
authorities of the business and com-
mercial world, and leading lights in
the sphere of drama and music are
here to tell summer students the in-
teresting aspects of their respective
occupations. Their lectures are not
technical, they are the popular, com-
prehensive phases of earnest endeavor
in fields which are admittedly worthy.
Th summer lecturer does talk "above
the head" of his audience.
There isf 'an obsolete contention
which occasionally still prevails, that
the Simmer session is the paradise of
"flunks." Quite the reverseof this is
true. The Summer session is a time
of "doubling up" An work and double
speed is an uncomfortable pace for
the laggard. The University Sum-
mer program is two months of dilig-
ent work combined with additional
pleansant features that are made pos-
sible because of agreeable summer
weather adid a beautiful college town.

Speech in Answer'to Lord Birkenhead'
in House of Lords
Debate
London, June 28-(By A.P.)-Mar-
quis Curzon, Secretary of Foreign Af-
fairs, made a long and important
statement in the House of Lords to-
day in reply to Iord Birkenhead who
called attention to the seizure by the
United States of liquor on British
vessels,
The Secretary declared that there
was no chance of Great, ,Britain agree-
ing to the proposal that United States
authoriies be given the right to search[
vessels for liquor within the 12-mile
limit. The government,. he added,
was fully alive to the importance of
the case, and all canoes of diplomacy
will be utilized to find an exit from
a situation which ought not to be al-
lowed to continue.
Lord Curzon explained: that it was
a very difficult and delicate matter
raising ta grave issue in both Inter-
national Law and policy.
Great Britain's legal position, ac-
cording to its legal authorities, Lord
Curzon said Is as follows:
"There are two recognized princi-.
ples of International Law which pre-
vent us from, contending tiat the
United States committed a violation
of international law in forbidding
foreign vessels to bring liquor with-
in its waters. The first is that for-
eigners trading with a country must
comply 'its laws. The second is that
every soverign independent state is
supreme over the persons and pro-
perty within its dominions including
ships in its territorial waters.
"However, On many matters th1e
practice has grown up that a state
should not exact compliance with its
own laws even though a ship is with-
in its waters, but leaves such qunes-
tions to be regulated by the law of
the flag state." This however, is in-
ternational practice, rather than in-
ternational law, and accordingly the
practice from it leads to a breach,

Residents of Ypsilanti, celebrating
the one hundredth year of their city's
existence during the present week
tore down an ancient log cabin, a
landmark of the community for the
last century, moved it from its old lo-

cation, and rebuilt it in a centrally
located spot in order that it might
lend atmosphere to the occasion. The

Rotary club tearing down the old

Human Skin And Bones Found
By Workmen In Excavating

While liquor seizures are arousing
the, animosity of European nations,
a most unusual and extreme case of.
adherence to the Volstead three-mile
provision has occurred In the Hawai-
ian Islands. Stopping in Honolulu to
take 'on coal, the Japanese line, Korea
Maru, was releived of 267 quarts of
liquor which she was carrying sup-
posedly for medical purposes on her
journey to the United States, the of-
ficials leaving only twenty-five quarts
aboard the vessel.
Inasruch as the liner did not actu-
ally dock in the islands for any length
of time, the seizure of this cargo was
not only discourteous and intolerant
as ,ave been the seitures in .ether
ports, but more than that, an indis-
criminate imposition upon the rights
of a foreign vessel.
The Chicago Tribune in a recent ed-
itorial looks up the entire situation as
assuring the United States of a se-
cure place in any world conflict which
might ensue in the near future. Speak-
ing of the doubt which exists in some
people's minds regarding the possi-
bility of our gaining access to such a
war they say:
"We think that if the United States
keeps on sticking pins in other na-
tions we may view the future optim-
istically. It will be a world war and
prosperous, disliked Unle Sam, with
his pockets full of money, everybody's
creditor and chattel mortgage broker,
will be in it-aloe on his side, mak-
ing the world safe of Volstead."
Certainly the position of America in
international affairs will not be very
advantageous if the popular and con-
stitutional freedom of other nations is
not in some measure respected on the
high seass. This country has tackled
a tremendous problem In trying to
establish absolute prohibition, not
realizing that the first steps which
came with and immediately after the
passing of the eighteenth amendment
were but nibbles at the bait. We have
not struck the hook yet, but when we
do, it may drag us through a sea of
trouble that the instigators of the
first "dry" campaign up in Maine a
half century ago never dreamt of.
Mount Etna is spurting in an epi-
leptic fit. It would be a good thing
to get a few epileptics working
among the: earth's population if they
would spurt anything that could kill
the evils of the world as easily as the
lava stream demolishes everything it
comes in contact with.

I TRYOUTS WANTED FOR 1
I SUMMER DAILY STAFF I

The Ford Motor company, one of the
largest factories in the world, and
producing a daily output of more than
4,000 cars and employing 55,000 men,
will be visited by Summer session
students tomorrow morning, the par-
ty leaving tSate and Packard streets
at 8 a. m. on special D. U. R. cars.
* Special guides who will take charge
of the factory tour will meet the party
at the company's oflices. The various
departments in this vast "city of ma-
chinery" to be shown the visitors will
include: tool construction department,
the employment bureau, the Ford von-
veyor system for motor and final as-
seoinbly line where from the chassis
to the final delivery the "growing"
machine never leaves the traveling
belt, cutting and sewing rooms for
upholstery, and the great main crane-
way used for storage and having a
67,000 feet floor area.
From this point the group will pass
through the noisy, beehive crankcase
department to the power plant, the
last lap of the journey. These power
engines, nine in number, and housed
in a many-windowed, white-tiled
structure, are, capable of ,generating
sufficient energy to supply a "city of
500,000 inhabitants with water, gas,
electricity, and ice, and of producing
heat enough to supply the entire busi-
ness district and all the public build-
ings."
those of a human being, Russel C.
Hussey, instructor in geology, and
paleontology, stated last night that the
presence of hair and skin on the bones
indicated that they had been buried at
a comparatively recent date. One of
the theories that teh bones were those
of an Indian of the last century was
also sent glimmering by Mr. Hussey,
who said that the bones could not pos-
sibly belong to the Indian period if
skit was found attached to them. He
stated that he would examine them to-
day,

human bones, skin and hair, which
were unearthed by a atea mshovel.
Wild conjectures were indulged in, un-
til the arrival of Coroner Sam Burch-
field who dismissed the "murder" and
"mystery" theories with the opinion
that the bones were the remnants of
the work of students in the Medical'
school.
Although the bones have not been
positively identified by an authority as
After luncheon, arranged for by
the director of the trip, the students
who wish to see the ned Detroit pub-
lic library, occupying the spacious
block between Woodward and Case
avenues will be conducted through
reading rooms, departmental rooms,
through. the stacks, and have explain-
ed to them the artistic features of this
municipal center by one offthe Detroit
librarians. This white marble edifice,
finished but two years ago, cost
nearly $3,500,000 for site' and con-
struction. It has a capacity of 800,-
000 volumes and holds at the present
tipne close to 500,000. Its artistic
beauty places it in the front rank of
America's libraries: its classic design,
its mosaics and murals, and its stain-
ed glass windows, being objects of
universial praise.
For this trip, as with other excur-
sions of the summer, members plan-
ning to take it should leave their
names .in the Summer session box,
room 8, University hal, not later than
this morning. Adequate transporta-
tion annot be secured unless this is
done.
