A university community seems al- ways to be infested with a group of persons who go around repeating ver- batim what they have 1eard someone else say. This is the same class of student who announces himself a Democrat or a Republican because his father was a Democrat or a Republi- can; who says the war will be over soon because his history professor has so prophesied; who memorizes rather than understands what he reads; who, in short, is always prop- ping up his mind with some sort of a mental crutch borrowed from some- one else. A college education is supposed to teach one to think for himself, not to acquire the habit of having someone else think for him.. It is better to get lower grades and to maintain freedom of thought and opinion, than to merit all the courses in the univer- sity with a mind drugged with other persons' ideas.-Ohio State Lantern. The bulk of the German reserves is located in the Somme rear. If Ber- lin is "in the Somme rear" then the kaiser, crown prince and five other Huns are doubtless a part of those reserves. The Hun claims that the naval raid on Ostend did not bottle up the port, and availed the British nothing. Yet it is understood that the vice-admiral in charge of Ostend has been removed from command. Reports say Hindenburg's army is pausing for breath. Yes, and a good- CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 10:AFTA.0:3 . "PATRIOTIC MOTHERHOOD" Sermon by LLOYD C. DOUGLAS 6:30 P. M.

STATE FOOD BOARD, MAKES SUGAR RULE Lansing, May 11.-The state food administration announced new sugar rules for Michigan according to which manufacturers of non-edible products will be denied supplies of sugar dur- ing the two months following May 15 The new ruling also affects those manufacturers who began business on or after Janiary, 1918, despite govern- ment warning to the contrary. Business Restrictions Another class of business, composed of those who started after Nov. 1, 1917, will be restricted to 50 per cent of their consumption during the four mounths of January, February, March, and April. The food administration declared it to be absolutely essential that the rules be strictly adhered to in order to prevent a sugar famine in the United States. The new plan for sugar distribution allows 100 per cent to preservers and packers of vegetables, catsup, chili sauce, fruit, and milk; to manufac- turers of jam, jelly, and preserves, to meat packers, ice cream manufac- turers, to druggists, for medical pur- poses only, and to manufacturers of tobacco and. explosives, apple butter, and glycerine. 80 Per Cent Grant An eighty per cent consumption of sugar is -granted the following: manu- facturers of soda water, confection- ery, candies, chocolate, soft drinks and beverages, .ruit syrup and flav- oring extracts, sweet pickles, chewing gum, cocoa, wine, cereals, and to soda water fountains and sellers of soft drinks. Distribution of sugar will be con- ducted on the certificate plan, reports- being required before such certificates can be issued. Manufacturers will be required to show their total sugar cosumption for the first four months of 1918. Women in Service to Wear Uniform Detroit members of the national league for women's service are to adopt a distinctive costume, for the summer. Differing from the national uniform of dark blue serge, it will consist of midnight blue crepe de chine with white collar and cuffs. A sailor hat is to be worn. The costume cannot be worn with out permission from the local league headquarters. It will appear for the first time in next week's patriotic fund parade. Dean Cooley Goes to Chicago Dean Mortimer E. Cooley, of the en- gineering college, left Ann Arbor yes- terday morning for Chicago, where he addressed the annual alumni banquet given there last night. Dean Cooley is expected to return to the University Tuesday.; who manage to subsist on from $300 to $400 per collegiate annum as the Uni- versity catalogue states.

WOMAN HOSPITAL INSPECTOR APPEALS FOR 10,000 NURSES Washington, May 11.-"We should have now in this country 10,000 pub- lic health nurses," said Miss Annie Goodrich, federal inspector of mili- tary hospitals and president of the American Nurses' association, in an appeal today to the college women of the country to enter the nursing pro- fession. Miss Goodrich asserted that the num- ber of. nurses required, for work at the front, in hospitals in this country and for general public and private nursing, will increase steadily as the war goes on. She cited the courses in nursing established by several col- leges as offering an opportunity to educated women to perform patriotic and useful service for the nation. G.
