MORE FRENCH OWAN
Eight of Thew Received by Local
Branch; Want More Comfort
Bags
Eleven more French orphans have
been taken in the last five days by
the Michigan D. A. R., bringing the
number adopted by the state chapter
up to 37. Eight of these were taken by
the local branch which leads the state
in this matter.
That more combfort bags are .much
needed and wanted, is shown in a
letter recently received by Mrs. W.
H. Wait from a soldier who said he
would rather have a comfort bag
than anything else anyone could furn-
ish him. Mrs. Wait is glad to give
the patterns ol- the bags to anyone
wishing to make them.
The knitted equipment for the men
on the Paul Jones is coming in rapid-
ly. Already 40' sets have been re-
ceived and 20 more are needed.
Although many clippings have been
received more are needed. Magazines
which are most popular with the men
are: Cosmopolitan, McClure's, Judge,
Punch, Life, Vogue, Vanity Fair, and
Saturday Evening Post. Anyone hav-
ing stories from these may send them
to Mrs. H. D. Armstrong, 709 Chucrli
street, who has charge of the work in
Ann Arbor.
3ICHIGAN HISTORICAL COM-
MISSION PLANS BIG WORK
As soon as ten subscriptions can be
obtained, an important work is to be
undertaken by the Michigan Historical
Commission through the University

a complete set of the Detroit Gazette

the file in Burton Historical Collec-
tion in Detroit, supplemented from,
numbers in other libraries. The ac-
tual photography will be done in Ann
Arbor, probably in one of the labora-
tory buildings, by the photostat pro-
ces and will be offered to subscribers
bound carefully and substantially in

Eat Potatoes and Save the, Wheat
"We've taken the potato trench so
let us follow the example of the allies
and reverse it by using potatoes all
winter to save wheat and other foods.'
That's the word which has been sent
out by governmeht officials. With
the potato crop yielding enormously,
and- the demand for wheat conserva-
tion increasing, potatoes, which dur-
ing seed time were boycotted, no«w in
l'arvest time are urged.

PAT-CHES
sXEUNTI, AU RESERTORIBUS
(We who are about to depart, bid
you farewell.)
We leave the weeping and the ad-
vice giving to Ye Editor in Chief.
It's taking a chance, but read what
he says in his final valedictorious ed-
itorial on the opposite page.
NEVERTHELESS
Our thanks to the boys and girls
who have helped us with suggestions,
criticisms, and who have taken our
carefully labeled Jests with such good
feeling. Also to those who have toil-
ed regularly through the Collum-es-
pecially to the man on Thayer who
read it aloud to the lady on the porch
tast Saturday evening as we were
passing. "Thank goodness, there's one
real reader," we breathed.

When no one else can.
THE WISE STUDE
Once upon a Time, there was a Wise
Stude who went to Summer School.
"It's a Pipe," le said. "You don't
have to Work. Just Attend Classes
and You'll Get Yours all right." So he
bought a Pair of Flannels, a Panama
and a Gross of Bicycles. Ie knew
all the Dolls by their first names and
the Waiters by their steps.
When Exam 'Week Rolled Around
he just attended Classes as Usual.
MORAL
He also Got His.
The Laws complain that there'll be
no place to go but classes and the
post office next week. Another rea-
son for being a Lit.,
We saved exactly $4.75 by not know-
ing earlier that you can rent cars
with or without drivers. That's our
balance on hand, but it's too late now
to spend it for we leave before this
goes into Le Fevre's hands for dis-
tribution to the brain-wrecked public.

WORK-
Who wants work in his
home town during the rest of
the year?-Phone 1326-J
And yet there is some joy in life,
For though the hour is late
I can't forget the fun I had
In keeping that last date.
And so I guess I'll make this verse
As happy as can be.
Oh, girls may come and girls may
go--
If they go with -P. A. T.
