EDITORIAL.
' As you maj' have heard before,
these are hard times. Every
body is hunting for a scheme
to save a nickle or two. It seems
a- shame, therelore, that the stu
dents of the University should
let an opportunity of saving, in
the aggregate, some hundreds
or thousands of dollars a year,
pass. We pay for our books
prices which are simply appall
ing. The book dealers of the
town have us practically at their
mercy and they certainly make
the most of their opportunity.
Some co-operative scheme of
purchasing books would change
all this. Many of our larger
universities have made arrange
ments already. Several more
are instituting them this year.
Why should we be behind in the
race? There is money in it for
any enterprising student who"
will undertake it. The average
expense for books and stationery
is probably twenty dollars per
year for each student. We do
not think it is much of an exag
geration to say that one-fourth
of this could be saved by co-operative
purchasing. This for one
thousand students would amount
to five thousand dollars. If the
manager only made 10 per cent
of this saving he would be well
paid. It may be objected that
the regular dealers would cut
their prices for a time to kill any
such attempt. This is undoubt
edly true, but it would not nec
essarily have such an effect.
The students would certainly
patronize the student enterprise.
The dealers in town would not
be willing to cut prices for any
great length of time. The diffi
culty would be only in the be
ginning and should not deter us
from the attempt.
It is to be hoped that the
celebration of Charter Day will
be an enthusiastic one on the
part ot the students. If any
body has a right to celebrate
our twenty-fifth anniversary it is
the stu:lent-body. (Pardon the
seeming but unintentional
"weakly" attempt at a pun.)
"We are sometimes tempted to
believe that the "student body"
of the U. of N. is a pure myth.
The time is yet to come when
the, whole University turns dutt
and works with a will for one
object. Some small fraction of
us get enthusiastic in one clirec
tion, . but we don't all get
enthusiastic at once or over the
same thing. Let's do it this
time and see what the result will
be. The Neijuaskan ventures
the assertion that it will be so
pleasant that we will all be glad
to repeat the attempt.
While we are getting so many
new doors wouldn't it be a good
idea to put a double door in the
library entrance? At least fifty
people get their noses flattened
every day on account of that
narrow dark door. A bigger
glass would be ot some assist
ance. The sixth annual recital of
the Musical Department will
occur on next Monday evening.
Student Guests.
High schools and academies
accredited to tbe University will
be asked to send three delegates
from each senior class to the
silver celebration. The Chan
cellor wishes these student
guests to be entertained by the
students of the University. The
number will not exceed one hun
dred and fifty if every one comes.
There certainly should be one
hundred and fifty students who
would be willing and glad to
care each for one of these
visitors.
The names of students who
are willing to thus play their
part in connection with the
celebration shoutd be left at the
Chancellor's office at once.
ANNOUNCEMENT.
One likes "Friends," that bright hit
from the pen of Ed van Milton Rpyle,
because there is so much human nature
in it or rather, so much human nature
of the sort we most admire. One touch
of nature makes the whole world kin,
and in the past there has been so little of
it upon the stage. It will be seen here
for a single performance at the Lansing
this evening. The sale is large.

miles. Tickets will be on sale
December 23, 24, 25 and 30, 31,

a splendid opportunity to visit
your friends. Come and take a
trip via this line.
