Lewis Maryellen Brown WEDNESDAY, JULY 16, 1924 Night Editor-ROBT. G. RAMSAY in years to come, stand out as the first buildings of the Univeristy. Tradition, insofar as it involves buildings, is in its infancy here. The Union, the libraries, the new Law club, and the Women's League; these will be the centers of Michigan tradi- tion in the future. Imagine for a moment the tap-room of the Union after a hundred years, the library shelves ater a century or so. If you can visualize these it will not be hardto see wherein our future love of the past shall lie. A FAST AG7E 22 V 'p fl ti 9 ti s TOASED OLL - I DON' LIKE IT We reiterate, we don't like it! It may be unethical to mention it here, when we have to contend with peo- ple who just will interrupt the pro- fessor in the middle of a really in- teresting lecture to ask some dumb question entirely irrelevant to the topic under discussion, we just can't stand it. The. dear Prof. was exas- perated, the class was pained, and we were boiling. This sorta thing has gotta stop. 11 Text Books and Supplies GRAHAM'S Both Stores "To those who are desirous of knowing what gives them pleasure but do not quite know how to set about it I have no better advice to give them than that they must take the same pains about acquiring this diffi- cult art as about any other, and must acquire it in the same way -this by attending to one thing at a time and not being in too great a hurry." "Proficiency is not to be ob- tained here, any more than else- where, by short cuts or by get- ting other people to do work that no other than oneself can do. Above all things it is ne- cessary here, as in all other branches of "study, not to think we know a thing before we do know it-to make sure of our ground and be quite certain that we really do like a thing before we say we do." "Sometime you will feel you have done right. Anyway ere long you will know more about it. But there must have been a secret treaty with yourself to the effect that the decision was provisional only." -SAMUEL BUTLER. - "It seems to me," remarked the oldp gentleman, "that the young people ofv this generation are afraid of them-g selves." The present generation has been charged with everything ranging from corruption to insanity, but here was a new one-we are afraid of our-s selves.- The philosopher continued, "You can easily notice that the man ort woman of the present hates solitude.s They all seek crowds, They are afraid to be alone with themslves for even1 a minute."t Perhaps there is some truth in thel accusation. Solitude for the average intelligent man or woman brings witha it self-communion and induces a rath-c er critical self-examination. We are9 living in a fast age. Look at the frontN page of the morning paper; what at feverish panorama it unfolds! Inter- national complications, political meet-1 ings, and a dozen calamities in a single day are reported in the pagest of the press. Yet the seething crowd keeps on in heedless hurry without a single moment of deliberate thought.f A valuable habit to acquire is thet setting aside of an hour a day for tranquility and mediation. An hour in which a man can retire to some sec- ret place and there take stock of hisI resources, revise his aims, relocate his goal and gather new vision onf men and events.p CONCEIT Conceit is like love or hunger, iti attacks all men. An aeroplane jumpst across a continent between dawn andr dusk; a ship as big as a small cityi crosses an immense tract of water1 with speed and safety; a bell ringst and a voice thousands of miles awaye is heard clearly and distinctly; a dy-t namo does the work of a hundred men,t a train laden with the produce of a( nation rushes over the country to feed the teeming cities. Small wonder1 that man is conceited. Through his, intelligence and inventive research lie has made many marvelou,s things, and some of his creations are little short of miraculous. Take, for example, the most intri cate product of human mafacture, a battleship. Hundreds of tons of steel and other materials have been fabcated into a Thon ter of unbeliev- able complexity. It has huge bulk and great speed. It is capable of combat- ting the elements, and its vitals are protected by, heavy armor. It is equip- ped with guns that respond likethe thunder of the Olypians and deal death and destruction; and it seems almost animate. But this marvel of human manufac- ture is after all a mere mechanism. Compared with the simplest of na- ture's children. It is simplicity it- self. Sooner or later this human made monster will reach the end of its utility and nothing will be left of it but a mass of dull, inanimate wreck- age. While even the smallest crea- tures that crawl or swim or fly pos- sess the power of procreation and can pass on their life and character- istics to their children. There is a gulf between the battleship and the insect that the human brain will nev- er bridge. What we know is but a thin film of oil on the ocean of knowledge. That should reduce conceit by a notch or two. Apparently some students believe that there are too few cement walks on the campus. They are always tak- ing short cuts. HEALTH SERVICE OPEN The privilege of the University Health service will be extended to all students of the University Summer session. The Health service is located at the corners of Washtenaw and Volland ave- nues and will be open from 9 to 12 o'clock daily except Sundays and from 2 to 5 o'clock, Satur- days and Sundays excepted. All students who care to take ad- vantage of it are given free med- ical service. Physicians are available at all times by calling the Health ser- vice infirmary, University 186-M. Podunk Papers Please Copy We notice that the WGSCD ran a story yesterday which told all about Dean Kraus visiting the "biological Station" in Kentucky. For the edifica- tion of them as don't know it, we may state that the aforementioned station is located in or near Cheboygan, Mich., and that the Dean hasn't been to Kentucky this summer that we know of at this writing. What we started to say was that after the error appeared in The Daily, our esteemed contemporary, the AA TN, ran the same story last night without changing it. Journalistic mot- to: "Confirm your news." That or Poison St. Here's to you, Taman: I have a sorrowful tale to unfold to you. It is all about a friend of mine. At least he was afraid-but ah! how little we know for what friendship will stand. We went out to the lake-the Michigan Summer Dummy wasn't there-he was afraid I would accuse him of his office again -and we went in one of the collegiate Fords. It didn't have a back light, the front fenders were gone, the left hind one was tied on-there wasn't a top-the transmission rod was loose, and the differential was cracked. We ran out of gas because the gasoline tank leaked, and the water all boiled out of the radiator every 3-4 of a mile. We ran into a ditch because tlJe lights went out-and I broke three ribs and one neck in going over a slight elevation called a bump. It took us three hours and 45 minutes to come in from Whitmore. When I disembarked I remarked to him that as a friendly tip I advised him to trade his Ford for a dog, and shoot the dog. And I haven't seen him since!

These rolls are three quarters of an hour late, and -he'sroring around cussing us out in general. We like that, it makes us feel so humorous. We've never been in a worse mood to put out rolls this year. Aside from our rage at the in- terrupted lecture, we have a tooth- ache. Address all letters of sympathy to Taman, Michigan Daily, City. Last Sunday we went fishing. We fished all day and caught a nice string of fish and a sunburned neck. We set out in a boat and watched the motor boats go by and drive the fish away, and cussed and had a won- derful time. As a matter of fact, we haven't had so much fun since Gaylord slipped on the stairs and lost his dignity. Our genial host ana hostess showed us a regular time and we had a big fish dinner to cap it all off with. * * * The other day we got a letter from somebody who volunteered the infor- mation that we needed a philosopher for the col and offered to take the job at least temporarily. We has mis- laid the letter, so we can't publish it, and ;we Ajisl4 to apologize to the writer thereof and ask him or her to send in some more some time soon. * * * Today's Helpful Hint: When in doubt, park. Taman. Small bricks of a chemical sub- stance that will burn; even under water have been put on the market in Germany. Now that we have a lot of new buildings are we going to get a new set of students? It's a long lane that has no turn- ing. It's a long Summer that has no end. And it's an unusual semester that has no blue-books. IRVING WARMOLTS, 0. S. C. Chiropodist and Orthopedist 707 N. University. Phone 2652 I.- FOR QUALITY PRINTING SEE - rr.Ar 6etter irnaeJons 711 N.

(Mack's, second floor) Ii I! 11 III It-i (i mmmw w AFTER A WHILE Smythe has often wondered wheth- er Michigan knows what tradition in the broadest sense really means. The strongest ties between the present and the past in all institutions of learning comes through the struc- tures which house the activities of generation after generation of stu- dents. Here we have nothing which re- vives memories of the pioneer insti- tution of the '40's and little which even arouses thoughts of the latter portion of our first half century of existence. Too true, we had our Uni- versity Hall with its wings, long out of date. They were landmarks of a former period, yet they mean nothing to us. They were cold, ugly struc- tures devoid of any sentimental at- tachment of the past-except age and ivy. Then Smythe asks himself wny it is that there are no appealing evid- ences of the past here at a school almost a hundred years old. He finds the answer in the fact that Mich- igan is just building her campus for the first time, that it has never been really built. Permanence and beauty have only been among the motivating. influences of planning the University for the past fifteen years. Alumni Memorial Hall was the first structure to em- body the qualities which will some day mark it as a landmark of "old Michigan." The buildings which are going up so rapidly on the campus ,Will weather the strains of time and I To Be Successful You Must SAVE! How many men do you know who are piti- fully trying to cover up the dependency of their declining years with the shabby remnants of their better days. It is a sad commentary.on present day life that so many men are deprived, in their age, of the fruits of the toil of their youth. Two things are responsible. One the re- markable prevalence of get rich quick schemes and the sale of worthless securities. The other is the lack of appreciation by the individual of the necessity for saving a part of his income. Both of these insiduous evils the banks are constantly combating, but without your cooper- ation they are helpless. You can provide for yourself and incident- ally aid in the good work the banks are doing by each week laying aside a portion of your income in some responsible financial institution. The habit is easily formed. You'll enjoy watching your balance grow. There is no other way you can assure your success in the measure in which the world measures success.
