NEW BOOKS ARRIVE

There has appeared in front of the
room shelfull of\new books, over a
hundred in all. In this set of books
are some of the best books published,
as: Babbitt by Lewis, In the Days of
Poor Richard, by Irving Bachelor;
Wells Outline of History; This Free
dom by Hutchinson; Flowing Gold
by Beach. The cost of all these books
is a hundred and five dollars.
Do you think the money has been
used wisely in the purchase of these
books? Has it been wasted2 If you
realize the value Of this source of
education you will say it is the best
investment that could be made. Some
Of these books are better than any
number of text books, because one of
these books may mold the character
Of the student SO that his success in
the future will be the result Of read
ing this book.
We know that q good education
cannot be obtained only from text
books, because some Of our greatest
men never went to high school or col
lege. So this set of books is val
liable asset to our school.
Next weeks issue of the Outlook
will contain partial list of the new
books. =

BRIEF. SURVEY OF
OPENING SEMESTER

The opening Of the new semester
Monday morning found all the stu
dents eagerly waiting for the return
of their examination papers which the
week before they had with great
hopes or fears launched upon the sea
of faculty criticism. When the papers
were finally handed back it PUT an
end to the subject of examinations
which was the only real thing dis
cussed during the week previous.
With few more questions "What
did you get?" the excitement sub
sided and the students have once more
calmly undertaken the burden OF
striving toward higher education.
new classes, commercial arithmetic
mechanical drawing and commercial
arithmetic, no changes have beer
made in the daily program. So faI
only two more students have en-
rolled in the commercial geography
class, which consists of the students
of the former public speaking class
as mentioned in last weeks paper
The mechanical drawing class had ar
enrolment of nine.
The economics class has received
new text books and as the study OF
these will be the main feature of the
work this semester, it will doubtless
mean the final abolition Govern
ment" which endured for such short
yet brilliant period and which, per.
haps, gave birth to some of the flu.
ture great statesmen of the United
States.

WEEKS MUSIC SELECTIONS

Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rus
ticana-Pietro Mascagni was born in
1868 at Leghorn. His father, bak-
er, was anxious for him to study law.
So he had to pursue his music study
in secret. He was finally adopted by
an uncle who was interested in his
musical aspirations. After a long
period of struggle and poverty his
operat Cavalleria Rusticana was per-
formed in Rome. May 1890 and
scored an immediate success. After
this he was awarded the Order of the
Crown Of Italy by the king and in
1895 made director Of the Coserva-
tory of Pesaro. His other operas were
not successful. In 1899 he composed
a hymn in honor of Admiral Dewey
To a Wild Rose-Edward Mac
Dowell was born in New York City
in 1861 of Quaker parents. When he
was eight years old he began taking
lessons on the piano and was at one
time n pupi Of the Venezuelan pian-
ist, Teresa Carreno. He afterwards
studied in France and Germanw and
assimilated the best that was pre-
sented to him in the foreign conserv.
atories. His music was always from
the beginning noted for its individu.
atty. In 1883 he returned 10 America
and settled in Boston and became
well known. as composer and plan.
ist. In 1896 chair of music was
endowed at Columbia University and
MacDowell was called to fill it. This
he held until 1904, when he resigned
In 1905 he was knocked down by Q
cab in New York City and from that
time he was a nervous and menta
wreck until 1908, when he died. "Tt
a Wild Rose" one of his smaller pi

ticn will require only the two days as

cssary. Then the following program

PARKS r.. JAR
TO THE TOURIST

That the state parks are becoming
increasingly popular as camping sites
for the summer tourists is indicated
in letter recently received by the
Upper Peninsula Development Bu-
reau from +. j. Hoffmaster, superin-
tendent Of state parks. Mr.. Hof-
master declares that $500 camps, or
tents, were pitched in the parks
throughout the state during 1922,
and that there is every indication
that the ensuing year i'll see a de-
cided increase in this number.
In July, when we were first able
to get out our campers permits, we
began compiling such data as would
tell us the number Of camps having
been built in a certain state park and
the states where the respective camp
ers hail from, Mr.. Hoffmaster de-
clares in his report.
"The number of camps built in all
the state parks since that time until
October Is, 1922, were in excess Of
$500, and the number of persons to
each one of these camps will aver
age four. Approximately one-third,
or 1000, Of the $500 camps were
built by nonresident parties"
1t seems, apparent, therefore, that
approximately 2,200 tourists to
Michigan utilized the state parks as
camping grounds last year. 1t is
evident, also, that with the recent es-
tablishment of five new state park
sites in the upper peninsula of Mich
igan, next years total of state park
campers will be decidedly swelled.
The addition of the five new parks
in the upper peninsula of Michigan
will be a decided asset to the tourist
accommodation facilities throughout
the upper peninsula CT Michigan.

SUPERVISORS WIN
in SUPREME COURT

The state Supreme Court has up
held the contention Of Attorney Jo-
seph F. Hambitzer that subdivision
2 of Section 5, Chapter 4 of Act 203
of the Public Acts of 1917, known as
the Michigan election laws, is uncon-
stitutional, insofar as it pertains to
the filling of vacancies in appontive
Offices.
A test case in quo warranto pro-
ceedings was brought against Lucius
G. Hillyer, Thomas D. Tracy and AL
vim Richards, who were appointed as
county road commissioners by the
Judge of probate, county clerk and
prosecuting attorney on April z,
1922 Incidentally Governor Groes-
beck and Attorney General Wiley ad-
vised the county officers to appoint
under this section of the law.
In April, 1922, there were vacan-
cies in the offices of the three county
road commissioners, one vacancy be-
ing caused by the death of Feter
Newman and the other two by the
redignation of August Hutula and
Martin Cosgrove. On April 18th, the
board of supervisors, acting under
section 1854 of the Compiled Laws of
1915, appointed Gustaf Lundberg,
w. C. Birk and Christian Jentoft to
fill the vacancies, they also qualify
ing for the positions.
Rees. Robinson & Petermann were
retained by Messrs. Hillyer, Tracy
and Richards, while the board of su-
pervisors retained Mr.. Hambitzer to
test the provisions of the act. Mr..
Hambitzer went to Lansing to con-
suit the attorney general and that Of
fetal, after talking the matter over
with Mr.. Hambitzer, consented to the
latter starting proceedings in the
name of the attorney general before
the state supreme court. The advan-
tage of this arrangement was that it
brought the matter at once before
the high court without the necessity
of first taking it before a circuit
judge.
Mr.. Hambitzer advanced two main
arguments in his brief. One is that
the chapter pertaining to the filling
Of vacancies contained in the 1917
election law was unconstitutional for
the reason that there is nothing in
the title Of the act to indicate any
such inteneion on the part of the law
makers and that the filing of vacan-
Goes in public Office is not german to
the title of the act; that the title Of
the act merely states that he act is
to provide for the conduct Of elections
that the filling of vacancies in public
Office has nothing to do with the con-
duct of an election.
The second contention made by MIR.
Hambitzer was that no provisions in
an election law under the title men
toned could repeal or supersede any
law granting specific power to GER
tain boards or bodies to fill vacancies
in appointive offices where the acqui-
sition of the law does not depend up
on any election law as in the case. at
issue.
