IMOUS AUTHORS
COME HERE SOON
RKIIAM, LE GALLIENNE AND
(IEHARDT WILL 'VISIT ANN AR-
IOR IN DECEMBER.
GLISHMEN COME AFTER WAR
E. N. Hyatt, '17, who is forming the
Pcetry club, has announced a partial
list of authors who will probably visit
Ann Arbor in the near future. The
list includes Edwin Markham; Richard
Le Gallienne, John G. Neihardt, Alfred
Noyes, Bliss Carman, William Dean'
Howells, George W. Cable, Alice
Brown, Edith Thomas, Henry M.
Alden, Margaret Deland, 'and Edith
Wharton-
When the present European war is
ended, several prominent English
writers will probably be brought to
Ann Arbor, including John Gals-
worthy, G. K. Chesterton, H. G. Wells
and Rudyard Kipling.
The first of these writers to come
will be Markham, Le Gallienne and
Neihardt, who will visit Ann Arbor
from December 5 to 15. All three of
these men are among the best, as
well as the most popular, American
poets of the present day.'
Markham, for whom a day was setr
apart at the exposition at San Fran-
cisco last April, is often called the
dean of American poets. He was born
in Oregon City, Ore., in 1851. He stud-
ied for the law, was for a time profess.
or at the University of California, and
now resides in New York City, where
he writes book reviews for the Hearst
papers. Markham's mother was pro-
prietress of the Markham House, an
Ann Arbor hotel, until 1847. Mark-
ham is the first cousin of Alexander
Winchell, formerly professor of geo-
logy. While visiting Ann Arbor, Mark-
ham will be the guest of E. N. Hyatt,
'17.
Markham is the author of "The Man
With the Hoe," which is perhaps the
most talked of poem written by an
American within the last fifty years.
It is the largest selling single volume'
of poetry ever published in the United
States, 150,000 English copies having
been disposed of., When first printed,
this poem brought Markham twelve
barrels of letters concerning it. Ity
has been translated into every lang-
uage. The title poem of his latest
book, "The Shoes of Happiness," ap-
peared in the Century magazine two
years ago. Although it has been on
sale for only six months, over 40,000
copies have already been so'd.
"THE BOHEMIAN GIRL
Joseph F. Sheehan as Thaddeus in
the all star revival of "The Bohemian
Girl", which comes to the Whitney
Theatre on Monday, Nov. 22, sings
"Then You'll Remember Me", which is
the most beautiful of all the numbers
in The Bohemian Girl.
Of all the singers in every country
on the globe who have won fame in
singing this world's favorite, Joseph
Sheehan, stands supreme. That glor-
ious voice which has won fame for
its owner on every important operatic
stage in America fairly plays and
dances with the delightful strains of
the composer's best effort. With just
enough of the Irish in his make-up to
take advantage of all the sentiment
and blarney in the song., Mr. Sheehan
sways his audience as he does Arline,
to whom he sings his appeal.
Under perfect control, his voice one
moment sobs with pathos, and the
next, rings with joy. When four years
ago the all star revival of The Bohem-
ian Girl was announced, one of the
conditions of the producers was that
Joseph F. Shehan be secured for the
role of Thaddeus. The wisdom of
this selection is best exemplified by
the fact that New York and Chicago
critics unanimously pronounce his
singing and acting of the role the
best in the history of the opera.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS BETTER
Foreign Demand for Wheat; Much
Buying by Commission Men
Better export trade, both with the
Allies, and with other nations, is be-'
ginning to influence domestic com-
mercial conditions. Especially is this
influence felt in the grain market.
Foreign demand for domestic wheat,
is making itself felt more and more,
particularly because Canadian wheat
prices are so much higher than home
prices. .Although the oat trade is
small, corn is rallying and much buy-
ing by commission men is taking
place.
On the whole, trade conditions are
improving immensely. This may be
taken as an indication of a new period1
of business activity.

ARTICLES ON METALLURGY
CONTRIBUTES FOUR ARTICLES TO
VARIOUS MAGAZINES AND MEET-
INGS
Continuing his present line of re-
search work in the true chemical con-
stitution of steel, Prof. Edward D.
Campbell, director of the chemical lab-
oratory, has contributed to various
journals and scientific societies sev-
eral articles during the past few
months,
In an article appearing in th Sep-
tember number of the Journal of the
'American Chemical Society, the title
of which is, "Can the Dissociation The-
ory be Applied to Solid Solutions in
Steels?" Professor Campbell gives a
history of the gradual development of
the conception in which metals and
alloys are regarded as solidified solu-
tions either of miscible liquids or of
compounds in solution.
"On the Function of Ferric Oxide in
the Formation of the Portland Cement
Clinker" is the title of an article con-
tributed to the October issue of the
Journal of Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry.
At the request of Doctor Oxley, of
Sheffield university, Professor Camp-
bell contributed a paper to the sym-
posium on the transformation of pure
iron, which was held on October 19 in
London by the Faraday society.
Before the September meeting of the
Iron and Steel Institute of Great Brit-
ain was read an article written by
Professor Campbell on "The Influence
of Heat Treatment on the Specific Re-
sistance and Chemical Constitution of
Carbon Steels." Another article, "On
the Formation of Some Basic Sili-
cates," was read before the meeting
of the American Ceramic society at
its meeting held in Detroit last Feb-
ruary.
Professor Campbell has done a great
deal of work on the true constitution
of steel and his conceptions are get-
ting to be quite generally recognized
by present-day metallurgists.

RlESEARCH CLUB YEARS PAPER
ON CHlARACTERWOF DEAN GUTHE
President of Club Reads Appreciation
of Late Professor of
Physics
At the first meeting of the year, the
president of the Research club read
the following words in appreciation
of the late Karl E. Guthe, dean of the
graduate school and professor of
physics.
"Dean Guthe was a teacher in the
university for 16 years. He has
been an active member of the club
'for the past nine years, and for three
years dean of the graduate depart-
ment.
"Hi: fine character and high ideals
won him the respect of all who knew
him. Although often at variance with
the opinions of many of his friends,
he never gave offense to any, nor
took offense. He showed how science
and its methods, its ideals, and its
purposes, may give men integrity and
poise. His constant loyalty to care-
ful scholarship and scientific research
made him a man who has been a great
benefit to the university.
"A tiue scholar, a faithful and efli-
cient officer, and a most genial friend,
Dr. Guthe was one whom we are glad
to have had among us and whose
nemory we may well cherish."

plans to be considered at the meeting
of the Students' Council tonight are

Acropolis Publishing Company.
Mr. Mordell's new book deals with
much the same matter as covered in
his earlier essay, "The Shifting of
Literary Values," but in much greater
detail. The discussion of Dante, Mil-
ton, Bunyan, Kempis, St. Augustine,
and Pascal leaves no doubt in the
mind of the reader that Mr. Mordel!
is a revolutionist, hewing down our
literary ideals with a ruthless hand.
Mr. Mordell's , contention is that
much good writing is spoiled by false
theology and that the belief in such'
theology alone is responsible for the
high esteem in which these works are
held. Whether one agrees with the
author or not, the point of view offer-
ed is unique and stimulating. Mr.
Mordell is a follower of George Bran-
des, with whom, one is inclined to
think, many of his critical standards
originated.
