- Germany has been injecting her pro-
s paganda into music books according
I to a recent article in the Chicago
, Herald. An edition of Beethoven's
e Sonata recently published in Leipsic
t has a foreword about Beethoven and
e the war.
"In the supreme distress of the war,
n so criminally imposed upon the Ger-
1, -man people," the reader is told,
I "Beethoven appears as a consoling
t spirit." A little farther on it states
- that "in this world war Beethoven
s has taken part in many a battle; he
has won victories. Harder battles
Y are preparing for the German people,
- and those also Beethoven will help
- us win."
The annexation of German musical
Y genius to the German war machine
t reaches its climax in the allusion to
America. The preface continues,
"The Americans are a rabble of shop-
keepers, without culture,. whose dull
brains are exercised only over the
coarsest buffoonery; their country so
wrongly called the land of unlimited
possibilities,' is on the contrary the
land of the most restricted possibi-
lities, the country where the very
lowest commercialism is the exclu-
sive rule."

BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS
DOES WUCH OF CONSTRUCTION
WORK ON CAMPUS SINCE
191()
One of the most important depart-
ments on the campus is that having
charge of the buildings and grounds of
the University, although its signific-
ance is generally overlooked. The
buildings and grounds does all of the
repair work and much of the new
building on the campus, as well as
taking care of the grounds and the
heating and lighting systems of the
buildings.'
The first superintendent of build-
ing and grounds was H. Reeves, who
took charge in 1890. He held the pos--
ition until 1908, when E. F. Turnbull
succeeded him. J. H. Marks was made
superintendent "in 1909, and the fol-
lowing, year he reorganized the le-
partment.
Departments Reorgaiized
There had formerly been four prin-
cipal sub-departments: Carpentry,
painting, plumbing, and grounds. Mr.
Marks introduced six new sub-depart-
ments consisting of the electrical de-
partment, janitor department, mason
department, drafting department, the
power house, and the laundry.
Mr. Marks was superintendent until
September, 1916, when he left to ac-
cept a similar position with the Pack-
ard Motor company.2 le was succeed-
ed by L. R. Flook, '12E, who had been
assistant superintendent. Mr. Flook
left last December for government
service, having been appointed a first
lieutenant in the ordnance corps, ni-
trate division, of the army. E. C.
Pardon, '11E, who had been acting
superintendent since that time, has
been appointed to the superintend-
ency.

night watchmen on duty from 6 o'clock
at night until 6 o'clock in the morning.
The mason department, in addition to
to doing repair work, builds side-
walks, tanks, and tunnels, and does
the masonry work on new buildings.
The drafting department draws the
plans for all repair jobs and new work
done by the department. The power
house supplies the heat and light for
all University buildings. The laundry
does all the work for the hospitals
and other places around the campus
where towels or other washable ar-
ticles are used.
( Important Accomplishments
The more important work done by
the buildings and grounds, department
since it has been reorganized is: The
construction of numerous tunnels un-
der the campus which are the distri-
buters of light, heat, and powyer to all
the University buildings; the building
of a $35,000 laundry and an $8,000
storehouse and drying kiln for lum-
ber; the erection of an additional unit
to the University hospital at a cost
of. $10,000; the electrification of the
spur-line railway from the Michigan
Central railroad yards to the power
house and the building of three bridges
for this line; the construction of a
sub-station to the power house; and
the remodeling of the south wing of
the Economics building.

ture for the Natural Science building

ing.
The plumbing and heating depart-
ment, in addition to repairs on the heat
ing and plumbing fixtures and the

"The House of Glass

The Story of the Girl who hid her Record

Sergt. Arthur Empey who is star-
ring in "Over The Top" at the Majes-
tic today, clearly bring out his Ameri-
can adventurous spirit in this pic-
ture. He was born in Utah, lived in
Wyoming, Virginia, Canada and
Brooklyn New York. After having
spent three years in the U. S. navy,
six years in U. S. cavalry with active
service on the Mexican border, he
came forth with the rank of sergeant-
major. All young soldiers will be
glad to learn that he later spent seven
years in the national guard in New
York and New Jersey.
Empey . gained his invaluable
knowledge of fighting the hun through
IS months of front line trench work
in 1915 as a Royal Fusileer of Lon-
don. He was bomber and gunner,
receiving wounds in seven different
trips over the top. After being hon-
orably discharged because of wounds,
Empey returned to the United States
and wrote "Over The Top." Instead
of resting on his laurels, he recruited
men sold Liberty bonds, helped the
Red Cross and Smoke funds and fin-}
ally went into the Vitagraph pictures
to show what we are up against "over
there."
