Those barrels and boxes in the var-

to be filled with "smokes." They are
for your classmates.
And now one of the Martha Cook
girls insists that the new Union is to
be the men's dormitory. Mebbe so!
The girls are wondering if pet-
itions concerning the advisability of
'helping the men keep 'early hours
were also sent to the Majestic and
Huston's.

MOVING PICTURES OF COLLEGI'
LIFE
Motion pictures dealing with col-
lege life invariably portray the col -
lege student in a way that antagon-
izes the publi toward his species
For instance, the other day a movie,
featuring a college scene, pictured tne
students as lounging about their rooms
at midnight, playing loudly upon guit-
ors, smoking villainous bull-dog pipes,
And disturbing the calm air of the
night with their boisterous drinkin
songs. They were dressed in a fash-
ion entirely foreign to the American
university, and their actions might
well have convinced the audience that
they were looking at a scene in an
asylum, had not a caption announced
that this was life in Sapleigh Univer-
sity.
The harm that such pictures do to
the American university and college is
laown only to the college man him-
self, Wrong in almost every particu-
ler, these films tend to antagonize the
public toward university life, they do
rquh more harm than those unac-
quainted with the real situation im-
agine.
Movie directors, always painfully!
correct in the portrayal of a murder
or of a scene in the slums, migh1 well+
take a day off and drop into any col-b
lege town, see the students seriously1
engaging in their class-work and in
the varied worth-while activities, and
tlien go back and show the public the
truth and not what they imagine the
truth to be from a casual perusal of
Siwash Days..
THREE TYPES OF STUDENTS
When you are called upon to recite,1
do you make a good impression? F
Or do you falter and waver and hem
and haw and give the instructor time
to see that, even though you know
the answer to his question, you are1
at a loss to express yourself?
In every classroom, we find threer
distinct types of students: t hose whot
repeat glibly the phrases of the text-
book in their answers, parrot-like;r
those who frankly admit their ignor-e
ance; and those who bury their ignor-t
ance under an avalanche of pseudo-I
wisdom-the bluffers.s
. Obviously, none of these types are
desirable. Were the average instruc-a
tor to choose from the three, he wouldl
very likely choose the latter as his,
favorite, not because he knew the mat-
ter in hand, but rather because of his
quick wit, his ability to think upon
the spur of the moment, and his ready
facility of expression.
The latter, however, does not make
& good impression always. But give
t4m a 'Workable knowledge of his sub-
t, and he will come out ahead ev-
ary time. Such is the advantage of
"pression and quickness of mind.
Some have the impression that a
ertan few from Ithaca, N. Y., are go-
ng to run into a hurricane some time
Saturday.

ATTEMPTS TO AID PATRIOTIC
STUDENT IN DECIDING WHAT
iE CAN BEST DO
By Hon. Newton ). Baker, Secretary
of War
When the call to national service
arose, spirited young men everywhere
wanted to be employed in a patriotic
way, and I suppose there is scarcely
a young man in any college' in the
country who has not very anxiously
addressed to himself the question:
"What can I do?"
I think that there is no general ans-
wer to this question. Even in those
cases where it would be obviously
better for a young man to stay at col-
lege and prepare himself for later
and fuller usefulness, yet if the young
eman in do doing acquires a low view
of his own courage, and feels that he
was electing the less worthy course,
the effect on the young man of that
state of mind toward his own actions
probably would be so prejudicial that
it ought not to be encouraged.
To the extent that the men in col-
lege are physically disqualified, or to
the extent that they are too young to
meet the requirements of the depart
ment, it seems quite clear that in the
present state of the emergency their
major usefulness lies in remaining in
the college, going forward with their
academic work. The knowledge that
the students will acquire at college
will equip them for subsequent useful-
ness if the emergency lasts until thi:
call comes.
But we do not want to chill enthus-
iasm. We want to preserve enthusiasm
and cultivate it and use it; but we do
want to be discriminating in our en-
thusiasm, and prevent people getting
the notion that they are not helping the
country unless they do something dif-
ferent, which very often is not the case
at all. The largest usefulness may
come from doing the same thing. Now,
it is not unnatural that there should,
be these ebullitions of feeling, this de-
sire to change occupation as a badge
of changed service and devotion to
ideals. Our colleges can exercise a
steadying influence in this regard.
We are going to have losses on the
sea; we are going to have losses in
battle; our communities are going t
be subjected to the rigid discipline of
multiplied personal griefs scattered all
through the community, and we are
going to search 'the cause of those
back to their foundation, and our feel-
ings are going to be torn and our
nerves made raw. There is a place for
physicians of public opinion to ex-.
ercie a curative impulse. The young
men who are in our colleges, who go
to their homes from our colleges and
make up a very large part of the di-
rection of public opnion, can exer
cise curative influence by preaching
the doctrine of tolerance, by exem-
plifying the facts that it is not neces-
sary for a nation like the United States,
which is fighting for the vindication o
a great ideal, to discolor its purpose
by hatreds or by the entertainment of
any unworthy emotion.

MANY CALLS ALEREADY
RECEIVED FOR TEACHERS
FORTY-TWO STATES AND TWO
FOREIGN COUNTRIES WANT
MICHIGAN GRADUATES
"Forty-two states and two foreign
countries, have already sent in calls
to the University of Michigan for
teachers for next year," said Prof. C.
0. Davis of the educational depart-
ment, who spoke yesterday afternoon
before about 250 prospective teachers.
Three hundred and seventy-four of
these calls have come from Michigan,
70 from Illinois, 44 from Minnesota, 24
from Arizona, 20 from Washington,
and 15 from South Dakota. These calls
are mostly for teachers, superintend-
ents, and principals, but some are for
social secretaries, and social service
workers.
Professor Davis stated that it is not
necessary for students to enroll with
the teachers' agencies throughout the
state because the enrollment commit-
tee has as complete a system as any
agency, and that out of 340 students
enrolled with the committee last year,
all except 38 obtained satisfactory po-
sitions, and of the 38 many withdrew
their names voluntarily after enroll-
ment.
"Our efforts will be primarily for
the class of '18," said Professor Davis.
"Every year we place from 40 to 50
alumni, but it is always the present
graduating class which receives first
consideration."
Enrollment will continue in the reg-
istrar's office in University hall until
Saturday noon, free of charge. After
then a fee of $1.00 will be charged.
Spicy News From
Other Universities
A $20,000 war fund campaign will
be launched by the University of Il-
linois on Monday, Nov. 12, and will
continue through Saturday, Nov. 18.
The Y. M: C. A. is preparing for a
huge drive to secure this part of the
total $35,000,000 to be raised in the
United States.
T-he students have been divided into
20 teams, each having a leader, and
they will solicit subscriptions from
students and faculty. Also much
work will be done before the campaign
begins toward impressing university
people with the necessity of the war
council's work.
Seventeen Seniors at Yale were re-
cently elected to Phi Beta Kappa.
In June enough more men will be add-
ed to make the total membership 10
per cent of the graduating class.
The sugar supply at the University
of Indiana is almost gone. Fraterni-
ties can only buy small lots daily
and the local grocers whose supply
has not already been exhausted are
running very low and are unable to
get more sugar at the wholesale
houses.
Three organizations have no sugar
at all, and the rest have very small
quantities. Some relief is found in
the employment of brown and loaf su-
gar. A new supply is expected in a
week or 10 days, but the supply on
hand is not expected to last that long,
and our part in it.

RATES ON POST CARDS VARY
ACCORDING TO SIZE AND USE.
According to the latest rules fixed
by the post office department at Wash-
ington, post cards having a minimum
size of two and one-third by four
inches, and a maximum size of three
and nine-sixteenths by five and nine-
sixteenths inches, will be "harged two
cents in postage whether cards contain
printed or written messages. Cards
that are larger than the maximum and
smaller than the minimum are to bear
two cents in postage if message is
printed and three . cents if message
is written.
The local post office reports that it
is having considerable trouble with
the post cards due to the people's mis-
understanding the rules as regard th
increase in rates. An additional one
cent stamp must be affixed to the gov-
ernment cards according to the new
rules.
