U. Of M. Yell In Japan

U. OF M. YELL IN JAPAN

It May be Heard There Next Month.

WILL HOLD A REUNION

There are 50 graduates from University in that Country.

The familiar cry of "Michigan, Michigan; rah, rah, rah!" may be heard in Japan next month, says a correspondent of the Detroit News. The occasion will be the meeting of the Japanese alumni to be held in Tokio. Fifty graduates of the U. of M. will gather from all parts of the imperial realm to promote education in this quarter and to discuss old times. The chairman is Hon. Mr. Toysma, a member of the house of lords, ex-president of the imperial university and otherwise a titled official. Nearly all of the alumni are public men of distinction.

This means that the popularity of this university is steadily increasing in that country. The last student to arrive came a few days ago, and makes the number 10. This is more than attend any other college outside of Japan except at Yale, where the number is about the same. They study political economy chiefly, and on that subject Prof. Adams is regarded as highest authority in Japan, his text books and lectures being used almost altogether.

There are some students, however, in the engineering, law and medical departments. Of the latter is Miss Inouye, who enjoys the distinction of being the only co-ed from the flowery kingdom. The Japs generally are characterized by their courtesy and modest ways, and everyone is a hard student.
