Michigan Students Describe
"Bumming" Tour of Europe
Two students. Edwin Ide, '23, and
Walter Tear. '23. started last summer
on what Is nrobnhl one of the most
unique trips ever engaged in by Mich
igan students. Leaving Detroit with
only $50 apiece, already they have
"bummed" their way through Ger
many. Poland. Austria, Czecho-Slova
kia. Italy and England. A" large type
written diary, kept by Ide. has been
T' reived by bis friends and is the
source of the material of this article.
A few of the most interesting ex
cerpts follow:
' Saturday, Nov. 4. Today fortune
rs:in smiled upon me. for Chief Re
cruiting Agent Evans proved to be a
graduate of Ann Arbor in the law
ilass ol 1!U0. He gave me a fine re-co-mnendation
which secured me a
position on a transatlantic liner."
"Fritzy, a shipmate, has just told
me in German how the people of Hit
men nearly starved from s! rt ra
tions during the war. He says they
harbor no ill-will against America
only France and England.
"We are in Germany at last. Tire
menhaven. Here we had to break ou
traveler's cheques, for marks are
bought only by one dollar at a time
they are exchanging 6900 marks for
one American dollar. We saw a re
markable house which we could have
bought for ?2"0 dollars. No one wants
property taxes are too high.
"Peer is prevalent everywhere. To
night we ordered a glass of milk
apiece, receiving w ith it a smaii grasr
of rum. We like the German Jaz?..
however. They syncopate over here
for a change they will play pieces
like "Margie" or "I'm Forever Blow
ing Bubbles."
"Something I notice about the Ger
man girls none of them use cosme
tics. 'Food is ridiculously cheap. We
buy coffee for one cent, ice cream for
two cents, and so on. One can live
indefinitely for a dollar.
"One little girl told me today in
broken English that her father earns
but seven thousand marks a week, a
little over our dollar, and out of this
has to clothe and feed a whole family

"We visited a Polish university as
guests of one of the students. Ilia
living quarters are cold, damp, and
without any comforts. These students
study harder and longer than we do,
seemingly disregardful of fellowship
and school spirit.
"Italy, especially Naples, is inde
scribably dirty. Streets and people,
both are filthy.
"In Florence we met an Oxford
scholar. He tells us that the deans
at Oxford could tejl you the univers
at Oxford hate efficiency none of
them could tell you the university en
rolltnent. American scholars Rhodes
scholars especially get along fine at
Oxford they can do as they please
and get away with it because they are
Americans. Walter is looking for

while I want to visit Heidelberg."

INSPECTION TRIP

America seems willing to try any
thing once, except its criminals.
The thing that charity most fre
(iiently begins at home is bragging.
Collect this sentence: "Thank you.
no; Ive tiiit smoking for all time to
come."
The remarkable thing is not that
so many get out of jail, but that so
many stay out.
Some girls run about with every

It's hardly fair to expect your boy
to lead his class unless his dad leads

Nebraska College of Medicine.
Saturday, April 7.
Nebraska Corn Mills at Milford;
Blue River Power Company's plants
Nos. 1, 4, 3, e, and 5; the Crete Mills;
lunch as guest of tne Crete Mills.
This trip is to made by automobiles,
and maps of the road to follow will
bo handed to each member of the
party just previous to the trip.
The Blue River Power Company,
with seven hydro-electric plants lo
cated on the Blue River recently sent
a number of pamphlets to the Uni
versity describing briefly the plants
that the party of engineers would
visit. The company was organized in
1910 and has at present about 400
miles of 22,000 volt transmission line,
mostly throe-phase and supplies power
and light to about 150 fanners. Theli
No. 4 station, nine miles north of
Crete on the Blue, is one of the first
remote controlled stations in the
United States. It is operated rrom
No. 3 station over a three-phase,
2200 volt, control line. Station No.
B, eight miles south of Crete, is the
first entirely automatic plant in the
United States, no control lines what
ever being used.
It must amuse the heathen to re
flet that the thincr that endangers
our civilization is our civilization.
