TO PUT-IN-BAY
Students Will Have Points of Interest
About Island Explained
Leaving early Saturday morning unA
der the direction of Prof. I. D. Scott,
of the geology department, an excur-
sion party will imake the trip by boat
from Detroit to Put-in-Bay, returning
to Ann Arbor that evening. While at
the island, the members of the +party
will be conducted on an exploration
trip through the various caves there
and will have the geological signific-
ance of the formations explained to
there.
The island is interesting from an
liistorical as well as geological point
of view, inasmuch as it was here that
Admiral Perry came after his victory
on Lake Erie. This event is commem-
orated by the recent erection of al
monument, from the top of which may,
be had the most excellentrviews. t
Students, and their friends, who
would like to make the trip are ask-
ed'to communicate as soon as possible1
with either Professor ..Scott of Prof.E

D RELATIONS
DE BYLEADERS
Each adviser will be given the
names of four freshmen and will be
gxpected to have these men call on
him at reasonable intervals, in order
that he may be able( to watch the
progress they have made,, and toi ad-
vise them if need be. He is to in-
struct the freshmen in'the tradjtions
and ideals of the University, and to
answer their inevitable questions con-
cerning the ways of the place.
Work of Each Slight
The work of the adviser is compar-
atively slight, according to the com-
mittee. It will talie up pfactically
none of his time, and yet it will be
one of the most important and funda-
mental tasks on the campus. It will
be the real duty of the adviser to see
that his freshmen gain the idea that
they have a real friend on the campus,
one- who has their interests at heart.
It is for him, moreover, to see that
his freshmen are made to understand
that they are wanted at Michigan,
sand, most important of all, that his
men get a square deal in every way.,
The committeemen are working on.
the assumption that if a, man is given
a square deal he cann6t help becom-
ing a real. believer in the absolute,
worthwhile quality of Michigan. Real-
izing that he has a friend, the first
year student will feel it incumbent
upon him to work for a greater Mich-
gan, and that he has a free chance to
become the best kind of Michigan
man.

NG ADDRESS
LTTE OF POLITICS
Viscount James Bryce, in the open-
ing address of the Institute of Poli-
tics, now meeting at Williams college,
at Williamstown, Mass., Saturday night
took up the development of interna-
tional relations as begun in the days
of ancient peoples and as continued
to the present day, when "they have
been shattered by a desolating war
and not resettled by any real peace."
"Broadly speaking," he said, "in-
ternational relations are what the
leaders of peoples make them, be-
cause under every political institution
that has ever been devised the many
are led by the few."
Two National Relations
Viscount Bryce went on to explain
that there' are two relations in which
nations stand to one another-that of
war, and' that of peace, and that our
present aim should be to understand
what may have , been the causes of
war and what may be the sources of
peace. Two fundamental propositions
must be remembered in the course ;,
an inquiry, into the relations of na-
tions. One is the' dependence of a
nation on other communities, and
subject to no control save that of
public opinion, and the other is that
the prdpect of improving the rela-
tions of states, and peoples to one an-
other depends on the possibility of im-
proving human nature itself.
He gave it as his opinion that a
sound and wide view of. national in-
terests, teaching the peoples that they
would gain more by the co-operation
of communities than by their conflict,
may do much to better those rela-
tions, but in the last resort theques-_
tio is one of moral progress of the
individual men who compose the com-

"The Garden City movement belongs
to a distinctly modern civilization,",
declared the Rev. Dugald MacFadyen,
of London, England, in a lecture on
"The Garden City Plan in England"
at the Natural Science auditorium last
evening. "It is an attempt to create
a town of the proper size, and with
the proper spirit so that it will make'
man's life better and more ,worth
while," he added.
"Good government," 'the lecturer
.continued, "can be administered ,only
when the size of the ci-ty is limited.
Cities like London and New York do
not command the same degree of civic,
pride that a smaller one does."
20,000 Proper Size
Dr. MacFadyen answered the ques-
tion as to what is the proper size of
a town in the words of Plato, who said
"the town of best dimensions should
have 5,040 houses." With four living
in each house, this would give a popu-
lation of about 20,000 or approximately
the size of Ann Arbor.
'The biggest problem before these
town reformers, Dr MacFadyen point-
ed out, is the question,of how to make

Camp .Program
More than 60 federal board students
in the University are expected to at-
tend the Veterans' Vacation camp to
be' held at Fort Sheridan, Ill., shortly
after Summer school, the exact date of
which will be decided upon at -a meet-
ing of the Gun and Blade club~ to be
held at 7:30 o'clock Thursday evening
in room 318 of the Union.
The students plan to travel by spec-
ial car from Ann Arbor and will stay
at the camp about two weeks., It is
planned not to make the outing milit-
ary in any respect, but- to conduct
merely a vacation camp where the vet-
erans may enjoy almost every amuse-
ment, including golf, tennis, swim-
ming, dancing, and baseball.
Federal board students who plan to
attend are asked to be on hand for
the meeting Thursday.

Lancashire, and Miss Lotta Martin,
teacher of public speaking in Detroit,
has been assigned the part of Mary,
while Harold B. Lipsitz, who played in
