ROEHM & SON, JEWELLERS
184 and 186 Woodward Avenue
DETROIT, MICHIGAN
Reverently preserved in the archives of the older Greek letter societies are some of the badges devised and worn by the founders of those associations sixty or more years ago. One of these emblems was constantly carried by its possessor from the night of his initiation until his death, a period of nearly half a century. Another, after having lain for twenty years in a grove where it had been lost, was found by the owner's son, who in the meantime BADGE OF DELTA PSI. had himself become a member of the fraternity which it typified. Still another of these old pins was handed down as an heirloom from father to son and from son to grandson, so that it did duty for three generations of college men.
Precious as are these venerable jewels for the associations which cluster round them, they are hardly to be compared in point of beauty with the badges produced by the artists of to-day. Messrs. Roehm & Son have transformed Phi Beta Kappa's token- anciently called at Union, from its somewhat clumsy shape, the " stoneboat"-into a badge of real elegance, while still preserving the original design. They are also manufacturing the watch-key of that ancient and exclusive fraternity, the Kappa Alpha, which, with six Eastern chapters, represents the men by whom at Union College seventy-three years ago the Greek-letter system of socie- ties was originated. Of course the symbols of the Kappa Alpha
key remain as the founders originated them; but by ingenious workmanship, effectiveness has been added to what was before one of the most beautiful of college badges.
To the fraternities which were organized in Yale College during the earlier half of the present century, is due much of the influence now exerted by the Greek-letter orders throughout the country. The founder of the Psi Upsilon at Yale was also the organ- izer of branches at Brown and Amherst; and the Yale Chapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon is the mother of that powerful and extensive fraternity. When the chapter of Alpha Delta Phi at Yale, upon the completion of its costly stone temple, resumed after an inter- val of twenty-three years its old place as a junior society, Messrs. Roehm & Son were awarded the order for the badges to be donned by the first Junior delegation under the new arrangement. It is also noteworthy that the Executive Council of the Psi Upsilon, in selecting an official badge for use throughout the fra- ternity, unanimously adopted in prefer- ence to many other exhibits, the "Yale " badge furnished by the firm above men- 1832 tioned.
Roehm & Son were also makers of the beautiful badge set with diamonds SEAL OF ALPHA DELTA PHI AT HARVARD. which was presented by the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity to President Mckinley, one of its honorary members, and which was worn by the chief magistrate on the day of his inauguration.
The records kept by Roehm & Son show that they make goods for more than half the chapters of most of the oldest and largest fraternities, and in some cases the percentage of chapters runs over eighty.
While encouraging trade from societies requiring all classes of work, Roehm & Son exert their main efforts for new business in directions where the highest grade of workmanship is desired,

IN their extensive establishments at Detroit and Ann Arbor Messrs. Sheehan & Co. carry all the newest books and best editions. Himself a graduate of the University, the senior member of the firm has enjoyed a long and intimate acquaintance with college men, particularly with those of Michigan, which enables him to anticipate the literary needs of alumni and students. Associ- ated with Mr. Sheehan are professional book-men of long experience, who are equipped with the latest catalogues and bibliographies, and who gladly furnish any information the seeker of books may desire. With its large stores in the two cities this firm handles more books than any other concern in the state, so that it can give its customers fhe bene- fit of heavy purchases; and realizing that literary men and college students often tax their incomes to the utmost in order to build up their libraries, Sheehan & Co. sell all books at reduced prices, and to large buyers offer a heavy discount. Among the specialties of the firm are fine stationery and engraving.

BADGE OF SOUTHERN KAPPA ALPHA
During the senior year of '73 a freshman bought from one of Ann Arbor's bookdealers sev. eral packages of envelopes bearing the flamboyent seal of that class. The youth remarked that the articles purchased were the neatest thing in the way of fraternity envelopes he had seen that year.

I T is said that Edward Bulwer, Lord Lytton, once received a pro- posal of marriage from a young girl, and that, years afterwards, when he had experienced innumerable infelic- ities from an alliance with another, he declared he had gone further and had fared worse. Doubtless this would be the self-accusing comment of the Mich- igan student, who passing by the well- supplied furnishing house of Messrs. Wadhams, Ryan & Reule, should travel to Detroit or Toledo and there purchase at higher prices goods less satisfactory than could be procured at the estab- lishment mentioned. Whether the alumnus or the undergraduate seeks a new suit or a new umbrella, whether he wants a necktie or a pair of gloves, a mackintosh or collars and cuffs, he can obtain any or all of these at the south-west corner of Main and Wash- ington Streets, as well as, and more cheaply than, in any of the shops in Chicago or Detroit.
A junior, unable to write German script, was told to use the Latin charac- ters in writing his Ger- man exercise on the blackboard. Immedi- ately he replied "I never studied Latin, Professor."

MICHIGAN CENTRAL
F OR many years the only access by rail to Ann Arbor was furnished by the Michigan Central, and the handsome structure of stone which since 1886 has wel- comed and has bid farewell to so many students, attests the special interest taken by the Company's officers in the University, of which not a few of them are graduates.
To quote from the Official Report of the State Railroad Commissioner's Inspection of the Michigan Central: "The main line is as near perfection in the way of construction, appointments, service, and able management as can be conceived in modern railroading. No skill or expenditure has been spared to make it the modern railroad of the country." The road is a first-class line for first-class travel between Ann Arbor and Chicago, and from Ann Arbor to Detroit and to New York. Graduates, old or young, professors and students, in fact all persons who have been or are connected with the University, have cause to regard the Michigan Central as an essential part of the institution itself, as much so as the walks around and through the campus.

he skillful management of michigan graduates ren- dered possible the construction and subsequent success of the Ann Arbor Railroad, and on the other hand University men are indebted to that Rail= road for their only convenient means of access to points north or South of Ann Ar- bor. Whitmore Lake, that delightful resort of students, and Toledo, one of the largest feeders of the University, can be reached only by this line, which is indeed the "key" to michigan, as a glance at the map shows.

T O MR. ARNOLD, the Leading Jewel- ler of Ann Arbor, University men are indebted for a great variety of unique and beautiful designs of Michigan U.IM ANNARBOR Pins. These Pins are made of Sterling Silver, are finished either NNVS in silver or in gilt, and are hard enamelled in yellow and blue. Some of them have a square back-ground of blue with the letter M appearing thereon in yellow; others are shield-shaped; and an especial favorite is a pennant which shows the word "Michigan" in a ground divided diagonally between yellow and blue. Undoubtedly the line of U. of M. Pins kept by Mr. Arnold is the most extensive as well as the most interesting in the market.
This establishment is also well known to Michigan students for its Souvenir Spoons, which display the colors of the University, and contain an excellent likeness of the Main Building.
GEORGE WAHR
Publisher and Bookseller to the University of Michigan
B OTH in his down town store and in his establish- ment near the campus Mr. Wahr carries a com- plete line of text-books, new and second-hand, 105 North Main Street, 310 South State Street, for every department of the University. He makes specialties of . ANN ARBOR law·books and medical books, offers special discounts on miscellan - eous books, imports di- rectly foreign books and periodicals, and buys and sells libraries. Mr. Wahr's publishing department is of large and growing importance. It includes, among many others, the following pub- lications: the late Professor Watson's celebrated Tables for the Cal- culation of Interest and Discount, and the Values of Annuities, etc .; Campbell's Hand-book of Practical Astronomy; Cole's Theory of Substitutions and its Application to Algebra; Harrington and Hussey's Translation of Dr. Dziobek's Mathematical Theory of Planetary Motions; Warthin's Practical Pathology for Students and Physicians; Huber's Directions for Work in the Histological Labora- tory; Novy's Directions for Laboratory Work; Smith's Edition of Cheever's Select Methods in Inorganic Quantitative Analysis; and Matthew's Syllabus of Lectures on Pharmacology and Therapeutics in the University of Michigan.
The sophomores of ' 76 were to use the words of The Chron- icle, "Not half as big fools as some persons think." Their instruc- tor in Mathematics required them to bring exercise II, page 28, Olney's Calculus, in on paper. They borrowed a nice solution and figure from a junior, had a photographer make 100 copies, and sent them in.
