THE MICIiGAN DAILY. _f 7heatre Business Features 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 Topics 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. Ag MORDELLS NEW BOOK !RF CMPELWITES 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." deal.

DANTE AND CLASSICS--By OTHER Albert WANING Morcdell. Chicago Forbids Inerelass Contests Champaign, Ill, Nov. 19.-Fresh- soph contests are to be abolished if plans to be considered at the meeting of the Students' Council tonight are adopted. W. K. McCracken, president of the Illinois Union, is oppc.sed, and gives as his reason the fact that many of the universities in the east have abolished the custom of holding class scraps.

A special defense has been devised to protect Guernsey in his drop-kick- ing and the big fullback today sent the ball over the bar with mechanical regularity. 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. Dean and Compa,:y. Davis, S. O.- Demuth, Win.
