Wilson 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. l1omenI Annual Y. W. C.

ALAR COK ELECTR I C UPP ST A TE ST RE E T AKRDW A RIE 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." Gorman C.
