young, attractive girls. Their cos-
tumes are the very latest in the mo-
diste's art and the stage settings for
the play give us a new locale for mu-

as much colorful romance in Amer-

In the large cast of players will be

COLLEGE WOMEN WANTED
FOR SERVICE ABO
OPENINGS REPORTED FOR NURSES
CANTEEN, AND HOSPITAL
HUT WORKERS
Dean Myra B. Jordan has received
a communication from the Intercol-
legiate committee for women's war
work abroad, outlining the existing
vacancies and the resulting opportu-
nities for university women abroad.
The letter is in part as follows:
"College women of high personal
quality and sound practical equipment
are urgently needed in various kinds
of service overseas under the Red
Cross and Y. M. C. A The Intercol-
legiate Committee on Women's War
Work Abroad is recruiting for the Y.
M. C. A. candidates for canteen service
in American camps and French foy-
ers, also stenographers. For the Red
Cross it is recruiting helpers for can-
teens elsewhere than in American
camps, social workers, hospital hut
workers, nurses aids, stenographer
and other office assistants, and motor
drivers.
"Social workers are needed for re-
lief among refugees from the invad-
ed districts and for other forms of
social and reconstruction work among
the French civilians and children.
They should speak French.
"Hospital huts are convalescent
houses attached to the hospitals. The
women assigned to them may run a
canteen, write letters for soldiers, play
games with them, make inqueries con-
cerning men reported missing, in gen-
eral do whatever will create a home-
like atmosphere, maintain the home
communication, and preserve morale.
Women who speak French are de-
sired for French hospitals to serve
as a means of communication between
the French staffs and wounded Ameri-
cans who may be brought to these
hospitals; they must be nurses or
nurses' aides.
"The demand for nurses' aids is in-
creasing in France. They are to be
used not only with the public health
nurses as interpreters but also in Red
Cross rest houses. Each nurses aide
is under the direction of a Red Cross
nurse and subject to her orders
throughout her stay in France. To
qualify as nurses' aide, an applicant
must have had a course of not less
than 20 hours in a hospital, as well
as a Red Cross course in elementary
hygiene and home care of the sick.
"For canteen work, as indeed all
work overseas, the finest type of wom-
an is needed. High-minded, unselfish
devotion and absolute willingness to
do the humblest task combined with
ability to rise to any emergency, and
that pioneer quality which enables the
worker to use whatever opportunities
of education and experience she has
had make for success. No woman
sho u ldappywihlfwy thdril rd dlunn
should apply who is not experienced,
self-reliant, in good health and will-
ing to endure hardship, to obey orders
and to conduct herself with dignity
and discretion.
"In no case will an applicant un-
der 25 years old or over 50 be con-
sidered; in canteen and hospital hut
work candidates between 25 and 35 are
desired. Full volunteers of suitable
quantity are heartily welcomed. Where
these are unavailable, transportation,
uniform, and maintainance will be
paid, for exceptionally qualified candi-
dates, in whole or in part as individ-
ual circumstances, require. Each can-
didate should have some money of her

own, for equipment apart from uni-
form, and to cover personal expenses
and emergencies, except in case of
stenographers. Stenographers are
paid a salary of 750 francs a month
if in Paris, 650 francs a month if out-
side Paris and are furnished with
transportation and uniform.
Living expenses are such, however,
that a woman who goes as stenog-
rapher cannot expect to save money or
to send money home. The govern-
ment will not grant a pass-port to any
woman whose husband or son is in
the Y. M. C. A. or Red Cross service or
other organizations of similar nature,
or employed in or attached to the
American Expeditionary force in any
capacity.
Applications and inquiries should be
addressed to the secretary,Inter-col-
legiate committee of Women's war
work abroad, Women's University club,
106 E. Fifty-second street, Neuw York
City, N. Y.
NO PASSES GIVEN
DURING EPIDEMIC
No passes out of Ann Arbor during
the week or the week-end have been
granted to the members of the third
training detachment, according to a
statement issued yesterday afternoon.
The reason for this drastic action is
to prevent any possible chance of im-
porting Spanish influenza. There are
no cases among the training detach-
ment and every precaution is being
taken to prevent any inroads of this
disease.
Work In the five branches of the
training detachment is rapidly near-
ing completion. The men will probably
be detailed to attend another camp on
or about Oct. 15. There are 827 here
now.
A new wooden building, 192 feet
long and 75 feet wide, is being erect-
ed for the 100 signal corps men. The
walls and roof are finished, and work-
men are now completing the interior.
The building will probably be finished
next week. Members of the signal
corps undergo a 13 weeks course in the
University, while the mechanics re-
main In Ann Arbor eight weeks.
Company I will give a dance at the
Armory an Oct. 11. Committees on
decorations and finance are now being
selected. Just what the remainder of
the companies will do with their com-
pany fund has not as yet been ascer-
tained, but it is likely that they too,
will hold a dance, or some social af-
fair of similar nature.
WOMEN ARCHITECTS TO
FIND BIG FIELD AFTER WAR
Seven women have entered the arch-
itectural college this fall, which is a
large number compared to former
years, when more than two women was
a rarity. There are excellent op-
portunities for women in this profes-
sion now, according to Prof. Emil
Lorch, and will continue to be offered
after the war, when the great era
of reconstruction will bring unpre-
cedented activity in building. One
firm of architects, which formerly re-
fused to employ women of remarkable
ability and training along this line,
now has 20 girls in its draughting-
rooms.
Women architects will be especially
needed in home-designing and lines
closely allied with it, such as inter-
ior decorating, although occasionally
women will be found who can carry
out great architectural undertakings
on a grand scale.

NAVAL UNIT NOW
AT FULL STRENGTH
The naval training unit has received
special designation in the form of an
official name. While it remains a part
of the S. A. T. C., it is to be known
hereafter as the United States naval
unit of the University of Michigan.
Theyunit is in charge of Admiral
Berry, U. S. N., and the naval instruct-
or is Lieutenant Boak, U. S. N. The
active command of the unit is in the
hands of Lieut. Thomas J. North, U.
S. A., which fact presents a unique
situation in military affairs. It is
seldom that a naval unit comes under
the command of an army officer or vice
versa, but the two commands are now
working in perfect unison, and the
confusion which marked the first few
days has been completely overcome.
The naval unit is now up to full
strength and numbers four companies
of 125 men each. With a few more in-
ductions, all the men will be in the
service. Besides regular army drill,
the navy men ,will receive instruction
in navigation, a principal feature of
which will be lectures by Admiral
Berry. These lectures will be given
at 2:30 on Wednesdays in Hill audi-
torium.
Cosmopolitan Club to Hold Meeting
Cosmopolitan club members will
meet at 8:00 o'clock this evening at
the Methodist church, corner of State
and Washington Sts. A special pro-
gram has been arranged and all mem-
bers are urged to attend.
