He should be made to take part in such cam- pus and class activities as go on hereabouts, all to the end that he may leave Ann Arbor, at the end of his first year, with the realization that he is leaving something besides a few odds and ends, tucked away in a corner of some attic. The tap room sings, the freshman advisory com- mittee, and all such institutions are means towards the desired end. But they must have aid, or their influence will never be very great. This business of getting hold of the freshman and ultimately of bringing back with a jerk our unity which is gradu- ally seeping away, is no small task. It calls for as- sistance and effort on the part of every man jack of us. It calls for aid from the man and the seer, how- ever, not the self-seeker and the grinning dunce. Un- less thinking men hereabouts get busy and give that aid,.unless we all take stock of ourselves and of our University and come again to realize what it all means, Michigan is apt to degenerate into a mere institution-and nothing more. COME AGAIN!, Two months ago, Michigan had occasion to we- come into her midst a large number of educators, men and women of professions, and students from other universities, who had come here merely for a summer of additional college work. She welcomed them with the hope that they would see the many good points in our University, in spite of our little weaknesses, and would enjoy their eight weeks spent here. We now have occasion totid adieu to those same persons, and to wish them luck and God speed. We may add, however, that we hope they will leave Ann Arbor with an agreeable sense of appreciation of what Michigan offers to those who come here. The fact that a large part of the student body has been absent, of course, and the added fact that most campus activities are in a comparative state of coma for the present, makes it a bit difficult for the out- sider to get a taste of what we like to call our "Michigan spirit." Nevertheless, we feel that the University is well able to speak for herself as re- , gards the essentials. We have enjoyed the pleasure of- having with us during the summer this large group of persons from everywhere, and we sincerely hope that they have enjoyed being here. When they get away from Ann Arbor, may something of the feeling of the Old Grad come to them-may they want to return to us some- 0 KAH A m T WO0 0 0 L L O 0 G0 K .A H 8 T A HIGH CLASS FOOD Served at CH UBB'S on State St. opposite Lane Hall F L I W E BELIEVE you bank.

M~. its AN LOOK IN THE MIRROR-,-AND LAUGH An old Civil War captain, of venerable age and unusual sprightliness, was once asked how he kept young. "Every morning," was his reply, "I get up, and spend five minutes laughing at my reflection in the mirror." If we college students would take occasion to fol- low this man's policy day after day, we might come to regard ourselves in a much more sane light than we do. Here, in our little one-sided community, where we ourselves are largely the center of inter- est and the master of our own destinies, we develop into all manner of amusing combinations. Witness, for example, the self-important B. M. O. C., the fraternity "high-brow," the campus cynic, and the youthful atheist. Considering our own naive capers with the solemnity of a judge, we surely must cut an amusing figure before our older relatives and friends. "Give them time; they'll get over it," they say of us. We are an overly-sophisticated, comical lot. Why not appreciate the fact-and enjoy it? Others' Opinions GOVERNMENT AND EDUCATION Ignorance and democracy are not compatible. A people's power to control its own destinies parallels exactly the popular comprehension of what its des- tinies should be. These axioms underlie the admir- able plan of The American Legion, with the intelli- gent support of the.National Education Association, to observe Education Day in every city and town in America by conducting meetings in the schools which will emphasize the principle that education is the foundation of representative government. If Education Day had been on Germany's calendar in the years before 1914, her people might have been spared the sterner curriculum that was necessary be- fore a conception of popular government became implanted in the German mind.-The American Legion Weekly. OH, LADY LADY, read this! Though it is a bit early to begin casting slurs on our comical contemp, the Gargoyle, it is interesting to note that one of its past attempts was reprinted in last week's Police Gazette. The fellow who always lays claim to an ability to gallop through his blue books with ease and dis- patch frequently does so on a "pony". We are "c2k"how many of our newly-aged 'round here are going to have nerve enough to go home with those bits of embryonic fuzz on their upper lips. A confectionery store in Detrbit burned recently, and the proprietor was held for an investigation. Wonder what he charged for sodas. "Chicago painted in dizzy terms by rapt orator," squeals a headline. Well, Chicago is a dizzy city. FAILINGS' DINING ROOMS $7.00 per Week-3 Meals $6.00 per Week-2 Meals I.
