AT THE ARCADE

MAusic Notes

IN

Commencing today, the Arcade will
show photoplays on Sunday as well
as every other day in the week.
Goldwyn pictures will be shown on
Sundays and Mondays, the first one of
which is Geraldine Farrar in "The
Turn of the Wheel." This famous art-
ist's remarkable dramatic talents are
given wide scope in this production.
Miss Farrar has conquered the world
of motion pictures as easily as she
thrills Europe and America with her
voice. She is the only operatic star
who has brought her high estate to the
silent drama and held it. Be sure to
see her in "The Turn of the Wheel."
A new series of comedies are also to
be shown at the Arcade Sundays and
Mondays. They feature "Smiling Bill"
Parsons. Today and tomorrow he will
appear in "Bill's Baby," a clean, hum-
orous comedy, full of chuckles and
laughs. These comedies also are pro-
duced by Goldwyn.

"Everyone is so kind to us," said
Freda Bonan, the French girl living
at Martha Cook dormitory and tak-
ing a pre-medical course in the Un-
iversity. "We imagined that the Am-
ericans would be kirnd, because we love
the Americans as ycu love the French,
but we were much moved by the sym-
pathy and attention of everyone."
Sixty girls were sent over by the
French government and were met in
New York by the committee of wel-
come composed of American society
ladies and doctors from the associa-
tion of American colleges, which
makes -it possible, by means of schol-
arships for these girls to attend our
universities. "Each one was kinder
than the other," said Miss Bonan. "It

A cry comes from the commanding
officer at Camp Custer, to teach the
folks at home to sing the songs the
soldiers are singing in camp. There
have been community sings for some
time, but a great many of the camp
favorites have been left out of the
program. In a few weeks it is hoped
that "Pack Up Your Troubles," "K-
K-Katy," "When the Great Red Dawn
Is Shining," and other army favor-
ites will be whistled and sung in every
theatre in the country.
The music representative of the war
department at Camp Custer, Harold
C. Clase, will devote his time to ad-
vancing the plan. Mr. Clase's services
will be available in a number of com.-
munities and he will do everything
possible to put pep in the work. Mr.
Clase has s~en 'service in France, and
knows what songs the soldiers sing
and how they sing them.
Uiier the plan proposed now, the
songs will be sung between acts of
plays, and reels of moving pictures.
Although sdng leaders will not be
available at all times, the orchestra
will play the airs and the audience is
requested to join in the singing.

was organized so well, there was noth-
ing left to desire."
When asked how the statue of Liber-
ty affected her, she took a deep breath
and exclaimed, "Oh, it was beautiful,
it was so grand and simple." They
started looking for the statue as
soon as they neared American shores
and when it finally became visible,
they were in no way disappointed by
its beauty. :Their only regret was
that they could not see it at night.
On board, such hearty speeches of
welcome were made that they had no
time to feel homesick. In New York
moving pictures were taken of the
girls, and the photographers promis-
ed to send them home, which pleased
them immensely. They were greatly
interested in the Woolworth building,
as there are no high buildings in
France or indeed, anywhere on the
Continent.
French Colleges Different
The Americans in France are wel-
comed into the homes, as the people
love to have them there. At Miss
Bonan's home aneAmerican boy from
Detroit, Roland Reynolds, was en-
tertained, and Miss Bonan is anxious
that she get in touch with some of his
family and tell them of his visit.
She asserts that the Americans seem
to have done things very quickly.
"Your students'tarmy trainingucorps
we admire very much. We have al-
ways admired America for her quick
way of doing things."
When asked how our customs dif-
fered from the French, she gave a
gesture of despair and said, "Oh, in
everything." In French colleges there
are a number of programs mapping
out courses of study, but a student
must choose one of those and follow
it minutely. There is no freedom of
election such as we have here, aft-
er a certain program has been chosen.
The Medical school equires only one
year preparation, whereas here we
have two.
High Cost of Living Similar
Miss Bonan was surprised at the
rise in prices here which is only
slightly excelled by the expensive con-
ditions in France. They have not yet
given up their wine, but they gladly
sacrifice their hors d'oeuvre and var-
ious entrees, which made their lunch-
es so attractive and different.
Miss Bonan is from Lyons in the
south of France, so she has not been
in the actual war zone. She has
cousins and uncles in the war, but her
father who was honorably dismissed
from active service, much to his dis-:
appointment, has been sent back toI
his medical practice. She is only tool

The Board of directors of the Uni-
versity School of Music has extended
the use of the annex to the Red Cross
where women are urged to sew.
Richard Keys Biggs, a graduate of
the school, who has beei for a num-
ber of years a merber of the organ
faculty and who is a concert organist
of national reputation, has given up
his musical career and is now serving
in Franc-e.
Miss Ada Grace Johnson of the
voice department was married during
the summer to Mr. Nathan Konold.
She will continue teaching.
CONCERTS SHIFTED
TO SUITS. A.T. C
Members of the S. A. T. C. will have
opportunity to hear the great artists
who are to appear on the pre-festival
concert series, since the management
has already been able to change the
date to all but one of the number o
Saturday evenings. Fortunately, the
Caruso concert was originally sched-
uled for Saturday. The second con-
cert given by Anna Case, will take
place Saturday evening, Nov. 16, and
the third, that by Leopold Godowsky,
pianist, on Saturday evening, Dec. 14.
It has not yet been possible to
change the date of the Bonnet organ
recital in January, but it is expected
that this well be accomplished later.
The fifth recital, that of ToschaSeidel,
violinist, will be given Saturday eve-
ning, Feb. 8.
Many of the S. A. T. C. men are ar-
ranging to have their parents and
friends visit them for the week-end
on these occasions.
"Flu" Closes Amusements in Pennsy
The state health department of
Pennylvniahas officially closed all
public amusement places, such as sa-
loons and picture shows with the view
of stopping the spread of Spanish in-
fluenza. In the eastern part of the
state where the disease has reached
almost epidemic proportions, more
drastic measureshave been taken, i-
cluding the closing of schools and
churches. Philadelphia hospitals Are
crowded so that some have had to re-
fuse common medical cases. A call
to outside doctors has been issued,
as even the physicians and nurses are
contracting the disease, while the
Liberty Loan campaign is being hin-
dered by the cases among the loan so-
licitors.
Michigan Union to Hold Gatherings
The old Michigan Union building
will continue to be of service to stu-
dents of the University. Recreation
of all kinds are to be furnished here.
The large hall and basement rooms
will be used for dances, smokers, and
meetings.
The office of the general secretary
will be located in the old building
until November 1. It will then be
moved to the basement business office
in the northeast corner of the new
building.
Bible Chair Class to Hold MeetingI
The University men's Bible class
will meet at 9:30 o'clock this morning
at the Bible Chair house at 444 South
State street. Mr. T. M. Iden will give
an introductory talk regarding the re-
lation of science to the Bible and re-
ligion.

S. A. T. C. UNIVERSITIES TO
REGULATE LIQUOR ZONES
No vice and liquor zones will be de-
clared around universities where the
new student army is being trained.
Instead each school will be consid-
ered separately in applying the zone
regulations, the deciding factor being
the extent of the university's facili-
ties for military purposes. According
to a decision of the department of jus-
tice, it is impossible to establish a
ruling to effect all schools, because the
percentage of military students varies
at different institutions.
