The necessarilyendorse n the communica- Commencement time, and all that goes with it, is the most inspiring time of the year, especially to those undergraduates who witness the af- fairs of the week. And mixed in with the hilarious, the bombastic, we find the really serious ceremonies of the week. To those who are graduating, these ceremonies should be of the utmost significence, and these people should. take pride in keeping them as dig- nified as possible. It is well for them to remember that this is their Com- mencement, their graduation, and that it can mean much or little to them, as they choose to make it. Any untimely actions on the part of the graduating seniors can only mo- mentarily injure the University, but the individual may suffer for many years in the eyes of his classmates. If we were in Congress we would probably vote ourselves a raise about this time. OTED LL IVRTTTEN EN 4""",,ROUTE This, Ladies and Gentlemen, is be- ing written on the Wolverine, going East. We think it ought to be a pretty fast column. It covers a lot of ground, at any rate. We haven't the slightest idea when this will reach Ann' Arbor, or if it will, or when it will run if it does reach there, but that adds the* necessary spice to the work. Unfortunately there are no fascina- ating people on the train at all. Mostly leather salemens, who are dis- cussing politics. It's good that Cool-, idge can't hear them, too, or he wouldn't sleep for a week. There's not much about him these gents don't know,.and they are not afraid to say it either! * * * S I Subscribe to The Summer Michigan DAILY '1 Banners, Pennants, Jewelry, Memory lilt S.

This is true of most great institutionsof learning; The ;university has profited much from these ties of sentiment despite the fact that little or nothing has been done hitherto to unite scattered alumni clubs for systematic service in behalf of the alma mater. But still mtre might be accomp- lished, and it was a happy thought that ld up to the first triennial con- vention of University of Michigan clubs now in session in Detroit. The benefit from such conventions ought to be large. Graduates returning periodically to the campus will get fresh stimulus. The university will be able to count on a more active sympathy and on more generous sup- port whenever a good cause needs help. That good causes are not lack- ing, is proven by the business agenda of the first gathering. And they will multiply as the years pass and the university expands. ALL "ARTS ME'l AT DARTMOUTH (The Boston Evening Transcript) Hereafter, President Hopkins an- nounces, students in Dartmouth Col- lege will either become bachelors of arts or bachelors of nothing. There will be no further insistence at Dart- mouth on the idea that simply be- cause a freshman comes to Hanover without having studied Latin for four full years in high school, he- must of necessity be required to become a bachelor f science. Such a boy, says President Hopkins, shall no longer be required to specialize to any extent in science unless he personally, and of his own free will, desires to do so. He may, if he prefers, follow all the courses of a cultural nature which he is fitted to undertake. Conversely, the mere fact that a boy has studied Latin for four years in high school will no longer be deemed at Hanover a sufficient reason for hampering him in any wise in the study of science during his college years, if it be truly the sciences which he prefers to study most intensively. Upon hearing this announcement, there will be some echoes of maoning raised by classicists of the "last- ditcher" variety, but in general the decision made by Dartmouth will be welcomed as a courageous act of can- dor. If a college really believes in the value and merit of its instruction in all departments of the faculty- whether literary, political, or scien- tific-why not let it express that faith by granting one degree 'to all men who study those departments, regard- less of the question whether thirty- three per cent of their courses are in the field of science, or only twenty- seven per cent? There may be some traditional grounds for questioning whether the one degree so given should 'be the B. A.-since the B. A. has always been especially associated Tin the past with the study of Latin and Greek-but there should be no room for questioning the right of Dartmouth to renounce further con- fusion of its educational aims by a complicated attempt to discriminate between bachelorhoods of arts, and resolutely to declare that hereafter it is only the latter which the college will grant. Dartmouth has taken the position that it is the cultural ideal which it puts first, and that cul tural ideal is best labeled by use of the B. A. degree. Dartmouth will gain in achievement by thus clarify- ing and simplifying its aim. What this country needs, we gath- er, is a committee of leather salemen to run the Government. They seem. to really know just what is what and why. We should think that the Pres- ident would ask them to come to Washington and help him out every now and then. But that's just it. Now is this committee ran the coun- try things would be done. Gee, whei we grow up we're going to be a leath- er salemon, and really iknow what's g oing on! Special music by the choir. vested. Cold Drinks 1'f '1 40% DISCOUNT ON O PEN 9 . There was a fire across the street from where we live the other day. It was a fair fire. Of course there are two distinct ways of judging a fire. From the box office angle and from the owner of the house's angle. There was nothing spectacular about this fire except the chief's car, and a lady with a yellow hat. ° As a social affair it was quite a success. At first niost of the onfook- ers paid strict attention to the fire, but when the smoke died down a bit (so that it was no longer visible) people began to collect in small groups and talk things over. Inas- much as their hadn't been a fire since the week before last they had a lot to talk about, and long after the en- gines had gone they were still stand- ing there talking. "See you at the next fire" one would say to the other as they departed. Of course it was not a very formal or high hat fire because it was early in the morning, but several new types of suspenders were displayed to the awe-strucken public; there were also several new models in house aprons and kimonos. -* * * LEATHER GOODS, NOVELTIES CORRESPONDENCE STATIONI GRADUATION SUGGESTIONS Ladies and Gentlemen's Dressing Cases and Hand Bags..........$3.50 Up Writing Sets .... .$3.50 Up Bridge and Game Sets......$3.50 Up Purses and Bill Folds.......$1.00 Up Diaries..........'.........$.00 Up Cigar and Cigarette Cases and F Incense Burners Book Ends Gift Mottoes Graduation Cards M.

First of all there is nothing in either of the glaisses. There is no smoke coming from the girls cigar- ette. The background is very poor. The girl. has no ear upon which to fasten the earing.

Jamgotch I Collection Never was there an assoitment of finer pieces both modern and antique in gorgeous designs and colors. This interesting collection of Mr. Jamgotch is noted for its beauty. The rugs are in varied sizes but from the smallest to the largest size they are each fascinating in design. Moderate Prices! Ordinarily it would indeed be impossible to bring such an unusual collec- tion of rugs to Ann Arbor for such moderate prices, but Mr. Jamgotch has managed this feat this time by virtue of his experience and knowledge, so we feel obliged to point out to you the unusualness of this event.
