$10,000 FROMPAYMASTER
Only 70 Minutes Required to Pay Off
Entire Body of 700
Men
Approximately $10,000 was paid out
to the members of the second train-
ing detachment Tuesday afternoon.
The men lined up on North Univer-
sity avenue in front of the North
University avenue Ann Arbor Saiings
bank branch at 3:30 o'clock.
The entire number of 700 odd menj
were paid off within 70 minutes, mak-'
ing the remarkable record of paying
off one man in every six seconds.
Only one window was open, and one
clerk handled the entire amount.
A number of the men were surpris-
ed to find out the small sum they re-
ceived for their month's wages, but
they forgot to figure the allotments,
and the war risk insurance, which
took practically one-half of the reg-
ular pay.

I Had a Little Pony
I had a little money,
I put it in the bank,
I lent it to the government
To help buy a tank.
I saved stamps, I saved food.
I did without my candy,
Because I thought it very good
To have a bond handy.

SHUSH! ! A deep mystery. There
are reports going the rounds to the
effect that, the summer school di-
rectory might not appear until late
in the season, or at least until we
are packing our things for home, due
to the fact that it can't be printed un-
til late, and the prohibitive prices
in other printing shops. It would be
a pretty good suggestion for the b.
m. to request students through his
cols, to phone up the office if they
want to find out the telephone, ad-
dress, and home town of their girls
or beaux. How's that for service?

HOSTESS HOUSE SHOWS

Many inquiries have been made re

the hostess in charge the exact hou
when they expect to return. In thi
manner the smallest amount of con
fusion is avoided.
As to the entertainment schem

they know if they are to be in th

entertain get in touch with the per
