nrgins. • The new man seems to be
the youngest president Ann Arbor
has ever bad. The following brief
statement concerning him is given
out: :..'''   y .''    ■.:-'-
Dr. Marion Leroy Burton was born
in Brooklyn, August 30,. 1874, and
took his bachelor's degree at Carl ion
college, Minnesota, in 1900. He also
holds degrees awarded by Yale, Tufts
Western Reserve, Amherst and Fio-
barfc college. His wife - was Mies
Leona Moses, of Nortbfleld, Mass.
In 1905 he was ordainea a miaistor
in tbe Congregational church a:id
served aa pastor of tbe Church ot
Pilgrims, Brooklyn, for one year.
Later be was president of Smith college, resigning in v 1917 to become
bead of tbe University of Minnesota.
His family consists of Mrs. Burton
and three children.
All will be interested in tbe following brief account Mr. Burton gives of
bis early boyhood. It certainly sbonld
be an inspiration to every poor boy.
He says: * 'I wonder if you would be
interested to know tbat one morning
I woke up io Minneapolis and found
my mother crying.
" 'What is the trouble?' I asked.
"She said, "Marlon, your father
died last night.' I knew what it
meant. From tbat day bo tbis I nave
earned every cent I ever had."
"I used to se.'l newspapers on "the
streets of Minneapolis, and then at
night I used to take my little 9led and
pickup enough wood-so we would
not freeze in these cold Minnesota
nights* And then one day I got a
job in Minneapolis at 360
avenue. I got $2 50 a week,
earned so much since. At
of six months tbe man for
was working said:
have been faithful,
give you a rftise^aad i got^sVeeff.
I worked from 7 in tbe morning
until 11 at-nigbt and part of   Sunday.
"And then I went to the public
school and the teacher said to us one
day that in America every boy and
every girl had a chance. I am . not
going any farther, but I aoi going to
say that I believe it—I know - now
that America keeps ber promises.
*'And I say to you that just so long
aa there is a drop of blood in my
body or strength in me I will tight
and fight against any league or party
or individual wbo will seek to take
that chance from any boy or girl."
Soldiers.
' One will never cease to be surprised
at tbe winders of modern Burg'ry.
The transfer or nerves, even from tbe
animal to the human seems likely to
be a godsend to thousands of maimed
soldiers. Oar own State University
is to have a goodly share of tbe honor
in these discoveries. A recent statement ieoued from Ann Arbor says:
Probably many men in the  country

j usually do tbe work, r Here is an   op-
Of  portunity for them to try  tbb|r hand
fat it and, at the   same   time,* stand a
j chance of securing a  good   prize.    It
is not clear from tbe published statement just what pi an. is to be  used   by
tbe National Committee to decide tbe
matter.    However, it will excite considerable  interest  and*  may  tend   to
show sentiment on several   questions
in tbe various section^?f tbe country.

{greatest bouns to medical science
] tbat has come from tbe war is the
! opportunity to put into" practice tbe
I beet of certain experimentations in
I peripheral-surgery tbe science of
f transplanting nerves from one part
' of tbe bod}' to another or from one
j body to another.      '"   ,^. ,
! A recent dispatch from JJew York
j points out that as a result of experiments made in military bbspitats in
England and in the^ United States,
it is possible to replace nerves io
human bodies cut by bullets or shell
fragments, with tbe nerves taken
from tbe bodies of animals, and tbat
several remarkable surgical opera
tion have been performed in cases
where considerable length' of nerve
bad been torn away.
Peripheral surgery, tbe science of
transplanting nerves, baa been a
study witb Dr. Q. Carl Huber for
more than 25 years. Dr. Huber is a
member of tbe medical faculty of the
University, of Michigan, teaching
anatomy. When the war broke out
tbe government placed Dr. Huber in
charge of all the experiment work in
peripheral surgery, and all army
medical men were detailed bere to
work under him in tbe laboratories
of the University of Michigan.
"The war has given American surgeons an opportunity to test out their
theories and ferp^iteeiararfOfas on' the"j
humans who were wounded ib war,''
said Dr. Huber. "Heretofore tbeir
work bad been in tbe nature of experimentation. Tbe war brought It
into actual practice, and saved, literally thousand* of soldiers from going
through life maimed.,.
Nerve transplantation dates back 40
years, bnt it bas only recently been
used on humans. Then when the
time came to make use of tbis experimentation, there came a general
weeding out of tbe several kinds of
nerve transplantation, and only the
beat methods were saved.
In all, between 20.000 and 30*000
cases of wounded soldiers are recorded where peripberal-aurgery bas been
reaorted to. Even before thia war,
there were cases where this surgery
had been used to restore otherwise
useless arms and legs and facial nerves, where satisfactory results had
been secured.
Most of. the work on American
wounded has been done in this country after tbeir returu from European
hospitals, and as it takes many
months to get results, it is still too
early to get final reports on a great
majority of these cases," but so far
tbe reports have shown most satisfactory results.
Dr. Huber does not believe as sat-
tsfatcory results can be secured from
animal nerve transplantation, as can
be secured from human transplantation. Nerves, to be transplanted, be
says, can be taken from human
amputated members, shortly after
amputation is performed, and can be
stored in liquid pariffin until tbey
are needed. Tbey must be kept at a
^nearly «te££ing temperature, hOu in
bis manner can be kept for weeks
without using. Nerves, he says, can
be transplanted from any part of tbe
tfbouy.' A man,.wounded in the face
***an have tbe shattered racial nerves
replaced by nerves taken from bis
own leg or arm, or necves from
another human may be used equally
well, bnt alwaya the nerves transplanted from a human are more satisfactory than are tbe nerves taken
from an animal. v

fire was turned in wbea the house of
Ambroee Wariner was fonnd to be on
tire. Before any one could get there
tbe fire bad gained such headway
tbat it was impossible to do antbing.
Mr. .Wariner was so badly burned
and dazed tbat be was not able to
give a clear account of it, except tbat
he awoke nearly suffocated and tried
to reach the door wbicb he opened
when tbe room burst into flame. He
evidently thought tbat h i a wife

broken tbe bed room window from

body of his mother out and was so
badly burned that friends who had

Mr. Warioer was not dressed and was
barefoot, but be could not be kept

necessary to connect witb the one

thus causing some little delay.
The household goods were practically, all saved. We are informed

Submerged And Silent.
The Kansas State Teachers' Associ-
tion has voted a resolution emphatically opposing tbe organization of a
union of teachers for affiliation witb
labor organizations. Tbe Kansas
teachers took the ground that the
public—their public— actually has
some rights wbicb those wbo accept
its pay are bound to respect. Tbey
refused to form a union for affiliation
with labor organizations because
"they owed tbeir first alleeri>t»-c<9 to
tbe parents of the pupils uud could
not be subjected to possible sympathetic strike orders.
Excellent! And, by tbe same token,
tbe first allegiance of those parents
is towards tbeir teachers and tbeir
first duty towards those teachers Is to
