DR0,KUFFMANDOES WORK
IN RESEARCH IN VWEST'
MAK 3 STUDY OF CONDITIONS
PREVAILING IN FORESTS OF
WASHINGTON.
Dr. Calvin Harry Kauffman of the
Botany department spent the greater
part of the past summer doing research
work in the Cascade and Olympic
mountains of Washington, studying in
particular the conditions of the forests
in reference to tree diseases produced
by fungi.
"A scientist goes out lih., any ex-
plorer," said Dr. Kauffman wen ask-
ed what results he had secured, "and
unless he discovers the north pole or
something similar he doesn't know
what he has discovered until the re-
sults are on paper and his thesis writ-
ten. The material which I gathered
is not yet put together.
"The fungus growth is abundant
there," he continued, "because it is so
moist. The forests are magnificent,
but easily attacked because of the
n-oisture. Fungi growths are aided by
the climatic conditions, thereby caus-
ing mnany trees to rot. Conditions
there are similar to those in northern
Europe, where I spent one summer,
and to those in the East among the
Adirondacks."
Dr. Kauffman reports that much
material was found and fungi was ob-
tained in large quantities. These spec-
imens will be used in teaching the
forestry classes of the university. He
reports also, as a matter of general in-
terest, that the lumber industry in the
West is at a standstill because of gen-
eral business depresson and lack of
a market. Many mills are not run-
ning.

Federal Reserve Earnings Show Gain
Washington, Nov. 17.-With the ex-
ception of St. Louis, all Federal Re-
serve banks have reported earnings
for the month of October. Dallas,
Richmond, Atlanta, and Chicago were
the four banks to report the largest
earnings.
Are statement of the reserve earn-
ings for the whole country shows a
stcady increase since July. This may
be considered as a sign that business
is returning to its normal capacity.
Upward Trend in Stocks Evident
New York, Nov. 17.-The stock mar-
ket showed a general rise yesterday,
certain stocks making substantial
gans. Copper shares dominated the
trading, while railway and war shares
also were active in the rise.
The total sale of stocks was 972,000
shares, while the amount of bonds sold
was $5,470,000 (par value).
AT THE WHITNEY THETRE
Delinated by an actress of less sim-
plicity and charm, the difficult role of
Mary Grayson, played with signal suc-
cess by Edna Baker in "It Pays to
Advertise" to be seen at the Whitney
theatre tonight, would smack of the
trite adventuress type, so familiar in
farces. But creditably portrayed as
it is by Miss Baker, the part of the
scheming stenographer, who-for a
money consideration-plots with the
old Soap King to lure his boob son
into business, and "make a man of
him," wins not only the applause of
her audience, but its respect as well:
The tremendous success of "It Pays
to Advertise" depends in no small
degree upon the adroit handling of
this leading feminine role of the play.
The pronounced personal, hit scored
by this talented young actress has not
turned her head in the slightest de-
gree. She attributes her achievement
entirely to the methods of her man-
agement and "refuses to take personal
credit.
"The Bohemian Girl", the world's
most famous ballad opera, is coming
to the Whitney theatre Monday, Nov-
ember 22. This opera, which scored
nstantaneous success, has a perman-
ent hold on the public affection, for
ts story is pretty, romantic and is at-
ractively told, while the music is so
uneful that it has endeared itself to
melody lovers the world over.
