ficials because of participation inI
such hazing as has taken place since
Monday night.
Do we want hazing here at Mich-
igan? Does hazing merit the price
paid for it every year in injuries and
expulsions? It is but natural that
freshmen and sophomores clash, and
that many of the former have to be
taught their proper places. The stu-
dent council recognizes this fact and
has very wisely established fresh-soph
contests for both fall and spring. The
fall contests will be held within the
next three weeks.
Happenings of the past few nights
are largely of the "small school", and
prep school calibre. When a man
reaches the. age where he can attend
a university he is expected to have
outgrown such activities as have
transpired since the opening of
school.
Students themselves are largely re-f
sponsible for what the outside world
thinks of Michigan. In their hands
lies the power of moulding the
world's estimate of the Maize and
Blue.

QUARTERMASTERS
During the present month the third
of the army stores courses is be-
ing given under the direction of Prof.
J. A. Bursley of the engineering col-
lege. Many of the men enrolled are
old Michigan men, who have returned
to college after a successful start in
business or professional life, and en-
listed. Many of the men who are as-
pisting Professor Bursley in the
course are giving their time freely
that the men graduating may be
trained to the keenest possible edge.
It is due to the executive skill and
great interest of Professor Bursley
that this course is possible. He is
taking men who do not understand.
'the slightest thing about army organ-
ization and converting them into
highly skilled officials capable of sur-
mounting the hardest difficulties in
the least possible time. And only men
who have seen service know of the
many problems to be met in war time.
Often it is harder to keep a soldier's'
stomach filled than to lead the same
soldier over the top and across the'
horrors of No Man's Land.

Military drill was given the 120 en-
gineers enrolled at Camp Davis last
summer by Captain William F. Martin,
a Canadian army officer now recover-
ing from wounds received in France.
Calisthenic exercises were given daily
and military drill on Saturday after-
noons.
Baseball was the popular sport in
camp and two leagues known as the
Blackflies and Mosquitos were formed.
Swimming was indulged in daily and
several of the students had a small
sail boat.
Visitors came to camp frequently
and two dances were given during the
summer. Official visitors' day was Aug.
18 and 300 were present. They were
entertained by an orchestra organized
from among the men.
Journalistically inclined engineers
got out the Blackfly, which contained
all of the news of the camp, and in
addition cartoons and snapshots. The
paper was in the form of a blueprint.
FIVE-LEG JOURNEY MAKES
A UNITED STATES MARINE
"Around the World in Eighty Days"
is Slogan of Paris Island Camp
for Sea Soldiers
Paris Island, S. C., Oct. 3.-The
title "Around the World in Eighty
Days," has been resurrected by Un-
ited States Marines here, who apply
that phrase to their period of train-
ing.
There are five camps, one on each
leg of the journey, that the recruits
must pass through before gradua-
tion as sea soldiers. It takes from 77
,to 80 days to make the circuit.
The marines invariably quote the
Jules Verne phrase as characteristic
of the trip, even though many of them
have never read the fascinating ad-
ventures of Phineas Fogg.

Twenty-nine aliens were admitted

examiner.
Jurors Summoned to Appear in Court

Alumni and upperclassmen frown
upon State street occurrences of the
past two nights. They have been
through the mill. They carried on
the 'public hazing, which every fall
mars the record of Michigan. But they
have had time to appreciate the larger
horizon extended them through the
med:um of a college education. Stu-
dent councilmen, Union heads, "Y" of-
ficials, and other leaders and mould-
ers of the best Michigan opinions,
realize the evil side far surpasses the
momentary enjoyment gA en the soph-
omores and the crowd.
"Hazing" is forbidden by the facul-
ty. Every year students are sent
home, either from injuries received
from hazing, or by the University of-

AnEconomic Necessity
p.~HE country's business is growing faster than its railroads.
ILt has been so for 15 years. This cannot continue with- =-
out irreparable injury to commerce and industry. Nr C e ra Lis-
"America-'s Greatest Railway System"
are looking and planning ahead. Expenditures by these lines
-, involving hundreds of millions of dollars will be necessary in
the next few years to. meet the demand for increased trans-
portation facilities.. The money may come partly from earn-
ings; but most of it must come from public investment.
SThe public will invest only when assured a reasonable return.
Governmental regulation must therefore be such as to attracta
new capital savings.
The railroads must be permitted to charge ates that will
earn a return sufficient to coverthe constantly mounting costs
of operation, pay interest on bonds, reasonable dividends on
stock and provide a surplus for equipment, improvements and
extensionsa
