"Living conditions are high in Wash-
ington at the present time, the city
is overcrowded, lodging and board are
hard to obtain," says the Woman's
committee, council of national defense.
"Therefore youngi unexperienced
girls and dependent women should
not come to Washington to fill sten-
ographic; positions, without securing
in advance a definite position and pro-
per housing."
Suggestion has been made that the
state and county chairman get into
communication wihth the civil service
examiners in their localities, and noti-
fy the woman's committee at the na-
tional headquarters, of any women
who have passed the civil service ex-
aminations and who propose coming
to Washington. A local Washington
division will then make an effort to
see that lodging facilities are provid-
ed.
Notify the local chairman of the
Woman's committee, council of nation-
al defense in your own city, or the
state headquarters 322 South Burdick
street, Kalamazoo; Michigan, if you,
desire this assistance.

COMMANDING OFFICER AND FIVE'
GERMANS OF CREW
TAKEN
A Pacific Port, Oct. 29.-Count von
Luckner, commander of the German
raider, Seeadler, was captured Sept.
21, off the Fiji Islands by Fijian con-
stabulory, according to word brought
by a steamer arriving today from a
trans-Pacific port.
Five German members of the See-
adler's crew were taken with their
commander, officers of the arriving
vessel said. The Germans were in an
armed launch and were pursued by
the constabulory who were aboard the
steamer, Amra.
This report of the capture of the
Germans confirms a message to this
effect received some days ago from
Australia.
Just what became of other members
of the Seeadler's crew is not known.
One report was that they were at sea
in a commandeered vessel. The See-
adler, wrecked on the Mohepa Islands,
in the South Pacific sme months ago,
sank three Amercian vessels during
her cruise in the Pacific. Previously
in the Atlantic, she put an end to 16
ships of various types.
ANN ARBOR PAYS LOWEST
0OD PRICES IN STATE
When ing what people in
other towns gan pay for their
foodstuffs, pric, Ann Arbor do not
seem outrageous, as everywhere
throughout the state, they are higher
-than here. This information was se-
cured from an average price list col-
lected by the State Dairy and Food de-
partment.
People in Detroit pay much more
for- their food than residents of Ann
Arbor. Wheat flour No. 1, Patent, 49
pound bag, costs $3.13 in Detroit, while
it can be purchased in this city for
$2.40. The price paid here is the low-
est average price in the state. White
potatoes, another useful commodity,
sell for $1.67 in Detroit, while stores
here charge an everage price of $1.20.
Chicken costs an average of 36 cents
per pound in Detroit and an average
of 35 cents in Ann Arbor.

London, Aug. 29.-Hostile airplanes

tonight by Field Marshal Viscount
French, commander in chier of the
home forces.

MANY WAYS TO PAY
FOR BONDS FIND GIRLtS
DO ALL SORTS OF, THINGS TO
EARN MONEY TO MEET
PAYMENTS
"Let me do your shopping. Effic-
ient and quick service daily." This
notice posted in Martha Cook build-
ing reveals only one of the many en-
genuous schemes 'of University wom-
en for meeting weekly payments on
Liberty bonds.
One girls is slling felt pillows on
the installment plan. "Easy terms,"
she declares. Making beds at two cents
each is the self appointed task of two
members of the Delta Gamma house.
A can of china mender is the offer-
ing of one girl at "five cents 'a use,"
another promises to remove ink spots.
One young lady collects her bit by
giving readings to her sorority sis-
ters, another plays for them to dance
and charges "just enough to meet her
obligation, don't you see." There is
nothing small or large that the girls
haven't thought of. You can get glov-
es mended or dresses made. Almost
any girl who so desires can have a
manicure and shampoo, get a shine
and be served with a dainty lunch
without stepping outside her own door.
The girls say they are enoying the
extra work, besides they are helping
Uncle Sam.

They had met on the campus a num-
ber of times. One had waited for the
other to speak, with the result that
neither had given salutation. They
knew each other's names, but they
had never had a formal introduction-
that "Allow me to introduce, etc."
kind of stuff.
The scene is now laid in the reading
room of the Michigan Union building-
the campus "melting pot." The same
two students are seated, in adjacent
chairs. In front of them ,s a table
on which are numerous newspapers
and magazines.
They both reach for the same paper.
Their eyes meet in acknowledgement
of the humor of the situation. They
know each other at once.
Both of them are members of the
Michigan Union, and their membership
buttons furnish a basis for self-intro-
duction. Two simple buttons and the
spirit they signify enable the two
men to do without embarassment a
thing which neither had sufficient Ini-
tiative to do before-become acquaint-

OQUES AND CAPS COLLECTED
CAP NIGHT SENT TO BELGIUM
The 693 caps and toques saved by
eshmen from the bonfire on cap night
st June, on recommendation of the
tudent council, are now on their way
Belgium.
As its contribution to Belgian re-
ef, the Ann Arbor Steam Dye works
y cleaned the entire collection dur-
g the summer, and in September the
)ques were sorted, mended tand in-
entoried by two members of the coin-
Ittee, Mrs. H. J. Goulding and Mrs.
T. D. Henderson. Mr. W. H. Tinker
mated the work of packing.
Cloth mills 'in Belgium have been
smantled and there is such a scare-
y of all kinds of clothing that every
fort is being made to hurry the ship-
ent of warm clothing into the coun-
y before the cold becomes intense,.
d the caps will be sent by way of
olland.
The chairman of the committee for
ilgium relief, Governor Sleeper, has
;ely expressed himself as being ex-
edingly pleased with this gift of the

students of the University to the needy
in Belgium. He has also expressed
the hope that on account of the in-
trinsic value of the caps and toques,
the students will hereafter follow the
precedent,' and not cast them into
the. fire, but save them for some
worthy object.
