A recent newspaper runor that Os-
born hall was to be torn down and a
new senior dor1ndtory was to be erected
in its place, Is emphaically denied by
Dean +. S. Jones. The facts of the
case are that a number of the class
rooms in Osborn will be given up next
year, as the classes will be transferred
to the new Wright dornlitory at the
opposite corner Of the campus. Then
the Sloane physical laboratory will
also afford recitation rooms for Acad-
demic classes, when the scientific
courses are transferred to the new
Sloane laboratory that is nearly COM
pleted out on Pierson Sage square. In
this way the inconvenience that was
caused by the removal Of Alumni hall
will be put to an end.

A college education is not essential

A college education is not essential,
at least In Thomas A. Edison's field,
according to a recent statement by
that distinguished inventor In my
business he said, IF Yale or Har-
ward man should come to me for en-
ployment, l should probably say that
there was no place vacant, for / be-
lieve that a man without an academic
education Is as we'll fitted for my en-
ployment as a college graduate, and
probably will learn the details quicker.
Therefore, while 1 believe in education,
1 believe also technical education is
far better than any other kind, not on
ly in my business, but in practically
all others with which 1 am acquaint-

only college that favored the re-elec-

Michigan polled 44s votes for Woodrow
Wilson, Roosevelt getting second place
with 3e2. At Michigan Debs, socialist,
received 1872 votes, and Taft was last
with 140. Roosevelt led the field by
considerable pluralities at the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, at Cornell, at
Chicago, and at Minnesota. The totals
were:
