Ann Arbor's obbler Poet Full of n-
thusiasm; Writes Another Spec-
tacular Poem
Fumblingethrough his pockets, nerv-
ous and over-joyed, Ann Arbors poat-
cobbler, Dr. Tom Lovell, approached
one of The Wolverine's cubs yester-
day with what he terms "the big story
of the summer." Three distinct letters
formed the basis of that assertion,
according to Tom.
The first of these, it was found,
came from Madame Shuman-Heink,
the second from Governor Sleeper's
secletary, and the third from a nurse"
in England. All of them, it appeared,
recognize Dr. Lovell's poetic ability
and praise his popular hit called
"Good-bye Sweetheart."
The inspiration of the letters has
driven Tom to his pen again, and he
believes that the poem appended be-
low is by far his best.
Autumn Leaves Will Soon Be Falling
Autumn leaves will soon be falling;
Beautiful, summer days all gone;
The birds will have ceased their.call-
ing
To each other in their sweet song;
So let us then keep all the roses
While roses are still found with you
Who have them in your gardens,
Soon to fade away from your view.
THE WOLVERINE
A STUDY IN CONTRAST
A farwell scene midst much ap-
plause,
A fine young fellow to the wars,
Great honor done! '
A parting 'neath a wintry sky, j
A widow's prayer, a tear-dimned
eye,
An only son.
A safe return, a father's pride,
A host of friends from far and
wide,,
A mother's joy!
A figure still and stern in death,
A widow's feelings finding breath,
"O God, my boy!"

When the corner stone was laid for
the new Michigan Union building
which has been so aptly named, "a

democracy," a copper box was placed
in it in which held a varied collection

For the third time the T-N informs
us in a tag-end "So the soldier had
the police-woman arrested for inter-

"Where's June, Henry? I never see
her with you any more."
"No. She's gone."
"Where to?"
"We were out driving in the car. I
went in to get some ice cream cones.
When I came out she was gone."
"What happened to her?"
"I don't know unless the radiator."

MARINE RECRUIT MISTAKES
ORJIERS OF HIS SUPERIOR
Port Royal, S. C., August 15.-Un-
der the watchful eye of a quartermast-
er regeant some United States marine
recruits were being fitted into uni-
forms, today. One recruit was ob-
viously awkward and nervous. He was
endeavoring to fit his "number blank
feet" into a pair of "number eight reg-
ulation shoes," and experiencing much
difficulty.
"Come on-shake a leg!" growled
the sergeant, impatiently, da
"I tried that, but it didn't do any;
good," ventured the prespiring recruit,
tugging manfully to accomplish a
hopeless task.
The sergeant gave it up in dis-
gust. "Shake a leg," in the parlance
of the United States marines, means,,
"Hurry up."
