Michigan Good Enough.
"A true copy,
JAMES MCMAHON,
Judge of Probate

During the last five years many
hundreds OF Michigan. people have
disposed OF their goods and chattles
and moved TO the northwest pro.
vinces Great Britain, Manitoba,
Alberta, Assinaboine, and Sassatch-
evan. They have been induced
by the horid literature depicting
this land of promise and milk and
honey sent out by the Canadian
Pacific railway for the purpose OF
getting people there and build up
business for the railroad. In the
June Review OF Reviews, John w.
Dafoe, editor of the Winnipeg, Free
Press, sets forth in clear and
entertaining manner the strides
that are being made by his country
in population and general develope-
ment, but he sounds this note of
warning. Many people come to
Western Canada under missappre-
henson as 10 the facilities for
homesteading and in consequence
suffer severe Disappointment. The
homesteading army always keeps in
advance of railway construction,
and il is therefore quite impossible
To secure a homestead within short
distance of an established raj. way
Homesteading parties 20 far atield,
trusting that in couple OF years,
by which time they will need an
outlet for their produce. the
railway will reach them. Often this
faith is justified but sometimes the
railroad is very long IN coming.
The person coming TO Western
Canada with a view o. securing free
land from the government, ought TO
recognize that this involves going
twenty. thirty or even forty miles
from existing railways. with inevi-
taole pioneering hardships.
The.foregoeing may be accepted as
true. Mr. Dafoe has no reason TO
distort the situation. with which he
is thoroughly familiar. The greater
nun Der of people prefer to live the
little time they have to live, among
civilized aud enlightened people !
where they can have the benefit of
and religious advantages
aud OF social conditions What they |
might gain in the fertility of the
soils. Drawing the tornadoes and |
drouthS in summer, and the dis |
astrous billiards and extreme cold |
in winter in that region of isolation
hardly compensates for the comforts
and conveniances of Michigan. What
Mr. Dafoe says about the distances
Of valuable homesteads from railway !
is worthy of serious
Farmers who are
well situated for present or prosp-
pctive transportation facilities on
this side of the line should think "a
,econl time defore deciding to bury
themselves in remote and uninhab-
table districts farther north.

O. a. C. STUDENT BUILDING.
A Plea for It's Completion--History of Project
Claiborne Shepard's Work Recalled.

Adjoining the grounds OF near
ly ali the large colleges and uni
versities of the East, we find stu
dent buildings; and many, as
these of Cornell, D4Ttsmouth ane
Yale are most creditable struc-
lures for any college campus.
The west being IN new and
comparatively undeveloped state,
does not afford student buildings
for the grounds of its institutions
OF higher learning; but VIC, who
are wrapt up with a feeling OF
western patriotism, say that she
has now reached a stage of pro-
gress and industrial activity and
development tat will no longer
permit us to keep silent and allow
our Eat tern brothers to outclass
US. The matter of student build
ings has been considered in the
East and we hope that it may see
a successful future nea- at hand; !;
because they supply an urgent
need to the students of every
large college and university.
Claiborne Shepard and John
Clark, two of the most energetic
members of the class OF 1924 at
OAC, acting under the incentive
OF thei1 own motives, planned
and discussed innumerable means
by which they might bring the
matter of a Students Building
before the students Of OAC. The
fire which they kindled did not
ignite until in Jan. 'o5 when a
banquet was given in the College
Annoy for the purpose of bring
ing their plans before the stu
dents themselves. At that ban
quet the students subscribed the
sum of 50, 200, and when the
matter was brought before the
Battalion a few davs later so that

many who were not preseLt at
the banquet might have an op-
portunity to aid in the enter
prise, this amount was raised to
$4. 900
A building committee was ap-
pointed which consisted of Prots.
Lake, Withycombe, Shaw and
Edwards. Their first meeting
was held on Jan. go, 'o5. t:he
advisory board of the Y. M. c.
A. being responsible for the act
ion with Claiborne Shepard as
the prime mover. Work upon
the building began early in 1906;
but when the basement was near
ly completed, the work was Civ
en- up on account of shortaze of
funds and the sudden illness of
Mr.. Shepard who had done mnch
active work in the convassing for
subscriptions all over the state.
The necessary funds to complete
the building according to the
plans drawn up had not been
subscribed and the building com
mittee did not feel capable to as
sumo the responsibility which
would fall upon their shoulders
if the work on the building were
to be confined under the existing
circumstances; SO thus the build
ling stands today-incomplete.
The building, according TO the
/ plans, is to be a brick structure
52x72 feet, having two storie:
] and a basement. In the base
ment there will be a swimming
! pool 1Sx3o feet, shower baths

Must Take ssExamS."

A warm session was held
Thursday night of the senate
committee on medicine and phar-
macy to discuss the merits of the
so called Osteopathic bill, which
provides among other things,
that a member of their school
shall be appointed on the state
board of medical examiners.
A number of ministers W re
present, besides the local physi-
clans and osteopaths, and heat
ed argument followed, in which
it is said some sarcastic remarks
were spared between the men,
bers and the supporters of the
bill. The committee finally
agreed that they would report
favorably on the bill, providing
the doctors practicing osteopathy
would submit to a regular exam
ination by the state board of
medical examiners, the same as
the regular physician, and if this
condition was accepted they
would appoint a member of the
osteopathy school upon the
board.
This was met with serious ob-
lection by some of the defenders
of the measure, but they finally
agreed to the amendment to the
bill, and it is understood that a
favorable report will be made
up N the passage OF same, but
that there is bitter opposition
among some of the senators
against the bill. ll.-Statesman.
