MAILED
PRAISES RUSSIAN CHOIR
PROF. A. A. STANLEY CONSIDERS
CHURCH MUSIC CONCERT GREAT
ATTRACTION.
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
Music lovers of Ann Arbor will be
offered an unusual opportunity of
hearing what is in reality the finest
church music in the world. I refer
to the concert to be given by the choir
of the Russian Cathedral of St. Nicho-
las, of News York, in Hill auditorium
tomorrow evening at 8:00 o'clock.
To those who have heard the won-
derful choir in St. Isaac's, St. Peters-
burg, and the Russian churches in
Berlin and Paris, nothing need be
said, but to those who have never
heard the Russian singers, I should
like to state that there is really noth-
ing like- it in the world. The program
is to be made up of Russian ecclesias-
tical music, which is unique in every
respect, wonderfully effective from
the musical side, and absolutely com-
pelling in its effect.
A unique feature of a Russian choir
lies in the fact that they have basses
who can sing one octave lower than
our second basses, a thing which seems
improbable as a mere statement, but
which is an absolute fact.
They have appeared in the leading
societies and in concert in New York
City and have everywhere evoked not
only admiration but genuine astonish-
ment.
This will be one of the series of
concerts offered by the University
Musical Society to the citizens of Ann
Arbor without money and without
price, and it would be a serious re-
flection on our musical appreciation
if Hill auditorium is not crowded to
its utmost capacity on Friday evening.
May I state distinctly that I con-
sider it one of the greatest attractions
which has even been offered to an
Ann Arbor audience, and I trust that
it will be fully appreciated, as no
doubt it will. A. A. STANLEY.
ANNUAL COLLEGE OF PHARMACY
DIANCE TO TAKE PLACE FRIDAY
Packard academy will be the scene
of the annual dance of the College of
Pharmacy to be held tomorrow night.
The chaperones for the party will be
Dean J. 0. Schlotterbeck and Mrs.
Schlotterbeck and Mr. and Mrs. C. G.
Glover. Fischer's orchestra will fur-
nish the music. Tickets, which sell
for $1.00, may be secured from the
committee in charge, consisting of M.
L. Rushmore, H. W. Wickett, '17P, G.
J. Fischer, '18P, and W. E. Kirchgess-
ner, '19P.
Professor James W. Giover, of the
mathematics departmenit, has recent-
ly completed his compilation of a se-
ries of tables covering vital statistics,
which are to be incorporated in a
bulletin of life tables soon to b, is-
sued by Director Sam L. Rogers, of
the Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce, Washington.
This bulletin is unique, in being the
first of its kind to be published by the
United States government. The tables,
which show death rates and expecta-
tion of life at all ages for all classes
of people, were computed from statis-
tics drawn from eleven eastern and
central states, and were worked out
under formulas devised by Professor
Glover. They are intended primarily
to be of service to public health offi-
cials, physicians, sociologists, and ac-
tuaries. A first edition of approxi-
mately 25,000 copies will be printed.
Women Live Longer Than Men
According to these tables the ex-
pectation of life, at birth, for native
white males is 50.6 years; for native
white females, 54.2 years; for negro
males, 34.1 years; and for negro fe-
males, 37.7 years. Females are thus
longer lived than males to the extent
of more than three years.'
The expectation of life at the age
of one is considerably greater than at
birth, being 56.8 years for native white
males and 59.5 for native white fe-
males, and reaches its maximum at the
age of two, when it is 57.5 for the
former class and 60.1 'for the latter.
At the age of 12 the average native
white male's expectation of life is 50.2
years; at 25 it is 39.4 years; at 40,
28.3 years; at 50, 21.2 years; at 60,
14.6 years; at 70, 9.1 years; and at
80, 5.2 years. Similarly, at the age
of 12 the average native white female's
expectation of life is 52.6 years; at 25
it is 41.8 years; at 40, 30.3 'years; at
50, 22.8 years; at 60, 15.8 years; at
70,' 9.8 years; and at 80, 5.5 years.
City Death Rates Higher Than Country
The relative healthfulness of city
and country is strikingly shown by
the tables, according to which the
death rate among white males under
one year of age in cities in 13,380
per 100,000 born alive, whereas in the
country the corresponding rate is only
10,326 per 100,000, or 23 per cent less
than the rate for cities. A similar dif-
ference prevails with respect to white
females under one year of age, for
whom the death rate in cities in 11,123
per 100,000 born alive, while in rural
localities it is only 8,497 per 100,000,
or 24 per cent less than the urban
rate.
For white males the expectation of
life at birth in rural localities is 7.7
years greater than in.cities; at the
age of 10, 5.4 years greater; and until
the age of 39 is reached therd is a
margin of more than five years in fa-
vor of the country.
For white females the difference
between urban and rural longevity,
while pronounced, is somewhat less
than in the case of males. At birth
the white female's expectation of life
is 6 years greater in rural than in
urban localities; at 10, 3.3 years great-
er; and until the age of 46 is attained
the difference continues to be more

Calling ut The Reserves
is a daily performance for the college lad to meet
the highest mental and physical endeavor-and if he
has no reserves to-draw upon he cannot meet the su-
preme demand at the. critical moment in class room or
on the athletic field. Preparedness is largely a question
of physical sturdiness and mental stamina, and these
come from proper food as wellas rational exercise.
Shre Wdded eat
is the favorite food of college students for study or
play because it supplies the greatest amount of digest-
ible, tissue-building material with the least tax upon
the digestive organs. It contains all the rich, body-
building material of the whole wheat grain made di-
gestible by steam cooking, shredding and baking. It is
on the training table of neaf ly every college and uni-
versity in the United States and Canada. Delicious
for breakfast with milk or cream; or for any meal with
all kinds of fruits.
