cago producers, announce the forth-

effects are carried and the wardrobe

LACK OF CHEMICAL SUPPLIES
DEMANI)S (GOVERNME NT ACTION
In response to appeals sent out by
the University of Michigan and other
universities and industrial institutions,
asking the cooperation of the State
department at Washington in alleviat-
ing the hardships caused by the scar-
city of chemical and other laboratory
supplies, the State department has is-
sued letters 'setting forth locations and
addresses of the various consular rep-
resentatives and industrial agents in
Germany.
Representations to foreign govern-
ments, on behalf of American purchas-
ers, are being made by the State de-
partment also, but, owing to the dan-
ger of violating the American poli-
cy of neutrality, the greater burden of
the work will have to be left to private
initiative.
At the Wlitiley
Ye who pine under monoton. will,
welcome the charming musical play,
"The Girl of My Dreams" which comes'
to the Whitney Thursday night, Nov-
ember 12.
It is an express train to "Happy-
land," and a blending of pretty girls
with tuneful music, a bunch of laugh-
ter tinged with just a touch of sent!-
mont. -
The scenic mountings of the piece
and the costuming are splendid and
appropriate, while the staging of the
epsemble numbers and novelties with
which "'The Girl of My Dreams"
abounds, are unque and original.
The book is by Wilbur D. Nesbit and
Otto Hauerbach, music by Karl Hosch-
na. The cast includes Countess Von
Hatzfeldt-Clara Thropp, H arland
Briggs, Irving Brooks, Adele Boulaise,
Jules Pailly, Marie Grenier, Bud Mur-
ray and Harry Humphreys. The piece

For incredible swiftness and com-
pleteness in changing characters., the
work of Madame Marion has never
been excelled--if indeed ever equalled
-by anything ever seen this far west.
The plot of the little sketch i'A Daugh-
ter of Proteus," tells a consistent
fable, all seven feminine characters
being played by Madame Marion. She
exits from a door as a refined elderly
lady, and hardly does the curtain drop
to its place when she emerges in the
character of an Irish maid, an Italian
girl or the city woman at will. Every
ole of her characters is a distinct'
and authentic creation, the more re-
nmarkable for its quick change. In
