NIAGARA0 FALLS TRIP
LARGES1T IN HISTORY
T e most successful Niagara Falls
excursion since the institution of that
trip as a regular feature of the Sum-
mer session, according to reports of
students who made the excursion, was
made last week-end under the direc-
tion of Prof. William H. Hobbs, of
the geology department.
The party made the trip from De-
troit by boat to Buffalo and by rail
to the falls. Seventy-five took the
trip, the largest number in its his-
tory. The gorge trip was made,
stops being included for the study of
geologic formations and the scenery.
The night illumination of the falls
was observed from Goat Island, and
many of the party took the ride on
the Maid of the Mist past the foot of
the falls. The accuracy with which
the trip was planned and carried out
lent much to the pleasure of those
who made it.

sale goes to the support of the Fresh
Air camp which is conducted by the
Students' Christian Association for
the benefit of the poor boys of De-
troit and boys in the juvenile courts
who have no other opportunity for
an outing. A site of 170 acres at
Patterson Lake was given by busi-
ness men, friends of tiea novement,
and provides an unusual vacation for
the city boys. Over five hundred

a period of two weeks. Thme third
unit of 130 boys left yesterday morn-
ing.
The University Fresh Air camp is
now in its fourth year, thcugh this
is only the second year at its pres-
ent site. It has always been support-
ed by the students of the Univerity.
"Send a kid to camp" is the slogan
during the campaigns and authorities
in charge of the work of the camp are
desirous of a ready support on the
campus this summer. Last year,
$264 was raised in the one day drive.
It will be necessary to raise $300
this year if the work of the camp is
to continue.
The camp is under the supervision
of University men who give up their
summers to lead the boys. An under,
taking of the Students Christian As-
sociation, it has grown to be one of
the outstanding services of the Uni-
versity to the people of the state.

JOURNALISM CLASSES
TO VISIT DETRIT NEWS
Classes in the fundamentals of
journalism and in news editing under
E. G. Burrows, of the journalism de-
partment, will make a trip through
the offices of the Detroit News this
afternoon. The trip is conducted as
part of the work in these classes.
The classes will assemble at 3 o'-
clock in front of the News building
in Detroit. The various processes in
the printing of a metropolitan daily
will be observed.

manner, Prof. W. F. Colby, of the
physics department, yesterday after-
noon lectured to an interested audi-
ence on "The Theory of Quanta."
In the course of developing his
topic, Professor Colby brought out
the difference between. the average be-
haviour of a large number of people
or objects and the behaviour of any
scientific individual. He stressed the
point that while a generalization of
behaviour may hold good when ap-
plied to a large enough group, n.o in-
dividual part of the group necessar-
ily acts in accordance with this gen-
eralization.
An example of this is the averagel

"expectation of life" predicted and
used by insurance companies. No
one person lives precisely this pre-
dicted length of time, but when the
duration of life for a number are av-
eraged, it is exactly the predicted
figure.
Professor Colby then showed that
it was quite possible that the same
idea applied to some of the so-called
fundamental laws of science, that they
are only generalizations of the be-
haviour of the immense number of
small parts, or quanta, that seem to
make up a visible body of matter. He
said that these same theories could be
applied to energy also, although this
is a more difficult conception.
Summing up, the speaker said that
this idea of quanta had tremendous
possibilities-that perhaps space, time,
and events do not take place contin-
uously, but in a series of disconnect-
ed steps. He said, "These ideas
are certainly going to be disconcert-
ing to'our old established theories of
1 energy and motion."
