HIGH PRICES AND EDUCATION
Prices today are on the wing. Each
new sunset and sunrise adds to the
money power placed upon products.
Money is cheap.
Can not students place a higher
value upon the product which each is
now seeking, and receive more from
the education they came to Michigan
to get?
When going to the classroom, make
up your mind to remember what the
instructor says. It should be valu-
able to you, otherwise the instructor's
efforts and your own are largely
wasted. If given references, look them
up. Do more than is asked of you,
more than you need to do to "get by"
the course.
This achieved, your next step is to
pick flaws. If the instructor is right,
don't be discouraged. You are de-
veloping originality. If Columbus had
accepted the theory that the world
was flat he would never have discov-
ered America. There is plenty of room
for more like him.
Index your knowledge. A smooth
smattering of it may be the proper
thing in the drawing room or at the
adance, but the world doesn't swallow
your dose unless you show them.
Once you have done these things
you will still find you still lack much.
You can keep on all during your life.
But you can pat your own intellectual
back in one respect. You have put
a new, higher value upon your own
product.
IN KEEPING WITH THE TIMES
Major Wilfred Wilson and others on
the campus are unanimous in de-
claring that the Star Spangled Banner
should be played by the band before
the start of each football game. For
one reason or another, America's na-
tional anthem was entirely forgotten
before the first game of the year.
The idea is an excellent one, and
should be caught up at once. The band
is not expected to be present on Fer-
ry field this afternoon, but will be at
the Mt. Union contest.
The greater part of the "Didya have
a good summer" handshaking being
over, don't forget to speak to a friend
of yours on the street.
A weak mind is like a microscope,
which magnifies trifling things, but
cannot receive great ones.
To be truthful now-after two days
of 7:30 classes don't you wish to ex-
press yourself alone and at length
about the person who started this
whole European trouble.
Our leading punster has informed us
that the allies seem to be ripping the
seat out of the war.
The uniform still attracts 'em. Any-
way that's the office gossip.
DEAN JORDAN GIVES
FRESH GIRLS RECEPTION
"Pilgrims' Progress," was revised
for the benefit of the girls of 1921
at the Junior advisors' supper Mon-
day night, immediately following Dean
Myra B. Jordan's reception.
The old allegory was made the
basis of a clever skit by Helen Os-
band, '19. Her heroine called "Chry-
salis," the typical- "new girl," fell
into many bloody adventures on the
Road to Knowledge, encountered the
horror of the Valley of the Shadow of
Death in her medical examination. She
met the typical "Michigan Man"' in
her finals.
On the reception line of the after-
noon were, Dean Myra B. Jordan, Mrs.
Harry B. Hutchins, Mrs. John R. Ef-
finger, Miss Sarah Hollands, Miss
Grace Greenwood, Miss Agnes Wells,
Miss Alice Evans, Miss Louise Potter,
Miss Marion Dawley, and Miss Marion
Wood.
After the dinner Anna MacMahon,
'19, chairman of the Junior advisor
committee, introduced the speakers.
Ada Arnold, '19, spoke briefly about
the Women's league; Emily Loman,
'19, the Girls' Glee club; Olive Wig-
gins, '19, the Y. W. C. A.; Jean Mc-
Lennan, '19, Red Cross work; Marcia
Pinkerton, '19, athletics, and Mildred
Morse, '19, dramatics.

The third assistant postmaster gen-
eral of Washington, D. C., is now hear-
ing a case to determine whether or not
the alleged unpatriotic utterances of
Eugene Helber of this city, in his par
per, the Washtenaw Post, are alleged
seditious statements which might war-
rant the paper being barred from the
United States mails. Mr. Helber claims
that the "war had gotten on his
nerves," and that he wanted to do
what was right. He ended by saying,
"forgive me."
