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.

Mr. Jessell will con- tribute two of the song hits in the score, "In My Palace Down in Pales- tine" and the 'What Ja' Ma' Call 'hm," while Lou Edwards will lead the company in singing the "English Rag" an~d makes a big hit with his Scare- crow dance. A post-finale dance on the table by Evelyn McVey closes the act very prettily, and a soprano solo "I'm Going to Let the Whple World Know I Love" by Nita Johnson is an- other gen 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.
