AROUSING INTEREST IN MICHIGAN
"Talk Michigan to men in your high
school, when you are at home for the
holidays." This exhortation has fre-
quently been made to students about
to leave for their vacation. But no
comprehensive scheme has ever been
devised to carry out the idea.
Fourteen Michigan students from
Petoskey have hit upon a plan which
we believe worthy of adoption by stu-
dents from other communities. The
Petoskey students have secured a
place upon the program of some en-
tertainment given by and for the high
school students. Their share of the
program will consist of a presentation
to the high school students of reasons
for coming to Michigan. Following
the talk they will distribute several
hundred copies of a certain student
publication to the high school stu-
dents.
If other student and alumni groups
will adopt this or a similar plan, they
can do much to bring athletes, schol-
ars, and thinkers to Michigan.
IN MEMORIAM
The news has been flashed over the
nation that Jerome Cyril Knowlton,
Marshall professor of law, and one of
the leading legal authorities in the na-
tion, died in Ann Arbor, Tuesday
night.
Graduates of the old Law depart-
ment recall how he made the pages of
Blackstone seem as vital as though he
himself were the great English jurist
working earnestly and ,late by his
candle flame. The alumni also re-
member the kindly humor of Professor
Knowlton, who was one of Michigan's
great counterparts of Oliver Wendell
Holmes, famed for making dry medi-
cal subjects at Harvard sound as in-
teresting as story books. Students
loved him best perhaps as a real
friend, a "regular fellow," and one
who liked his universal nickname,
"Jerry." At the dame time he rose
pre-eminent in his profession. He
added another flower to the wreath of
glory about the brow of his alma
mater.
TAKE STEPS FOR PREVENTION,
OF SMALL POX EPIDIEMIC
One of the latest measures taken to
prevent the spread of small pox, is
the creation of a special office in the
Homeopathic hospital by Dean W. B.
Hinsdale. Dr. Ralph Stanley Stauffer
has been appointed special medical
officer to examine all persons, includ-
ing visitors, to reduce the risk as far
as possible of admitting small pox
and other contagious maladies into the
hospital.
The University health service is still
continuing vaccinations but the num-
ber of students treated has greatly
decreased in number. Yesterday
morning there were 38 vaccinations,
making a total of 906 this fall.
We can paper that room during the
holidays. C. H. Major & Co. Phone
LAUDS GIRLS' CONCERT
SENIOR LAW ANSWERS CRITICISM
OF STUDENT WHO COMPLAINED
OF PRODUCTION
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
It was with no little surprise and
with somewhat considerable constern-
ation that I read the "mal a propos"
communication assailing not only the
work of an established campus organ-
ization, but criticising, what I believe
was. a very appropriate and fair
"write-up" of the concert given by the
combined forces of the Girls' Glee club
and tihe Masques last Thursday night.
True it may be that the pen is might-
ier than the sword, but on an occasion
like this I believe the sword would be
more to the point. Such an unknown
champion for the freedom of the press
who had the temerity to conceal his
identity under the shibboleth "A Stu-
dent" should be smoked out and sum-
marily dealt with.
Whether (A Student) is just a plain
misogynist or a misanthrope in gener-
al was hard to discern from his mis-
sive, indications point to the latter for
nothing seemed to please this indiv-
idual's astute sensory organs, but the
soft vibrations of the harp, for his
sake I trust there are many harps in
the next world for certainly such an
individual is not to be satisfied in this
commonplace orb.
His funnel-like criticism will not
hold water, or logic either for that
matter. He states the production giv-
en by the Girls' Glee club was no
good, because, no reason given, the
Masque performance was a fizzle for
the same reason. Q. E. D. His math-
ematical sense of proof should tell
him such statements are mere prattle
and bear no weight. True again the
plot in the "Worsted Man" was not of
the Jules Verne type nor was the de-
portment of the Girls' Glee club such
as one would expect to see at the
Winter Garden. They were, simply
speaking, what they were and nothing
more. That the entire evening was a
complete success cannot be doubted
for a minute if the enthusiastic recep-
tionl accorded by the audience was an
indication. The girls must have all
worked hard to produce so pleasing
an evening's entertainment, and all
credit is theirs.
Intelligent criticism is the ability to
judge the beauties and faults by
means of comparison with productions
of a similar nature in the same class,
not indiscriminate muck-raking.
Let such teach others, who themselves
excel,
And censure freely, who have written
well. '17 LAW.

DIPLOMAT WILL LECTURE ON
COMMERCIAL OPPORTUNITIES
Arrangements have just been m e
by the department of economics to M e-
cure Julian Arnold, commercial at-
tache to the American legation in
China, for a series of lectures on com-
m,ercial opportunities in China to be
given on Jan. 13, 14, 15.
Mr. Arnold has been connected for
several years with the bureau of for-
eign and domestic commerce, and his
experience in the field of foreign fi-
nance makes him peculiarly fit to
speak on the openings for American
money in oriental investment and en-
terprise.
Mr. Arnold is a graduate of the Uni-
versity of California.

C:i HOME.,
Stofflet's Newstand, 110 E. Wash.
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
In the Times-News for December 9,
was published an article in which I
am mentioned in connection with the
strike of the girls in the Hoover fac-
tory. I wish to inform the people of
Ann Arbor of the real facts as far
as I am concerned. I had absolutely
no knowledge of the strike. I did not,
even know that the girls of the Hoover
had a grievance. I had been through
the factory twice and had been more
interested, really, in other depart-
ments than in the girls' departments.
I knew but afew.of the girls employed
and had never discussed things with
any one of them. Any "call" that I
may think I have had never called me
to become even known to the Hoover
girls. Few knew I existed. I was
never consulted before hand or even
notified afterwards 'by any girl. It
was not until Mr. Hoover, himself,
called me up Friday night to blame me
for what had happened, that I knew
that anything had happened. No one
could have been more surprised than
I was. After Mr. Hoover called me up,
however, I went to find out what the
trouble was, with the result that I
have found out the true state of af-
fairs.
I hope that publicity will be given this
local event, and that others will take
the pains to inform themselves, first
hand, of conditions, as I have taken
pains to do since being notified by Mr.
Hoover.
