Whe part of Toby Watkins, an all around drudge on his uncle's farm is played by Mr. Ray. Toby after a fight with his uncle about writing poetry leaves home and arrives at Sawbert where he applies for a job on the Sawbert Weekly Clarion. Shortly after, a crook, Kendall Reeves, arrives in town with a fake project to establish a string bean cannery.

After many complications and much excitement Toby proves Reeves an ex- jail bird and as a reward receives the promise from the mayor's daughter, for which he has been striving. (Lee X. Woodruff) Reliable figures furnished by one of the most prominent Ann Arbor photographers appear to prove that ofM all the campus cynics, the watch-the-y birdie man has the greatest right to be down in the mouth at mention of the human race. Here's the incrim- inating dope: Every year the photographers in this center of mentaA uplift put the lens on between 2500 and 3000 stu- dents, each sitting primly all alone, forward or sideways according to the degree of "greekness" in the features, arms crossed and manly determina- tion all over the face; or arms down, neck swanned, eyes very sinful, ac- cording to the gender.

Bowers as the star. Mr. Bowers is not only a light comed- ian of sterling ability, but he is also well known as the composer of high class ballads. Victor Gabery, the au- thor of the play, has devised an orig- inal plot in this production and many of the situations evolved are new to the stage. There are some strikingly beautiful girls in the chorus and the entire pro- duction has been given the advantage of elaborate costume nend scenic em- bellishments. The cast, all of which has been recruited from the musical{ comedy stage, is an exceptionally good >ne, each member of it having already achieved fame in 'productions of no small proportion. Always-Daily service-Always. "The Romance of Tarzan," will be shown at the Arcade theater today for the last time. To obviate the pos- sibility that any one who sees "The Romance of Tarzan," may not have witnessed a performance of "Tarzan of the Apes,' 'with its wierd picturiza- tion of events in the life of this strange creature of fate, the action of its sequel starts with a novel and un- usual introduction to the story. In a series of brief and well-timed flashes is first reviewed the chief happenings in "Tarzan of the Apes." This re- quires but a short footage, and then the tale merges from the old into the new in the, crude jungle hut where the previous story terminated. From this point on the story of "The Ro- mance of Tarzan," carries its famous character thru a series of original and intensely exciting experiences into the very heart of civilization; with- its restraints, is duplicity and conven- tions. i z Just Because They Want To The students do this of their own accord, because when they pass from class .to class they are told that they have become older, wiser, more dig- nified, more wicked, more beautiful. They cannot see this in the looking i glass, so they trust the greater ac- curacy of the photographic lens and "the human kindness of the retouch man. When they get the photos they tack one on the wall beside the mirror, send one to him or her, and distribute the remaining ten to friends with beckoning mantels. Education in- creases the fault. By the time they have become seniors it is a habit. They not only buy photos, but they pounce upon the Michiganensian so that they can, on occasion, turn to the page by accident. 900 Croups In One Year The social instinct is also a great feeder fot vanity. The chief group photographer in town estimates that he "took" over 900 groups during the past year. At least five prints were made of each, with the name of the organization in the most prominent corner, ready for the Annual or the Scrap Book. Which all goes to prove that the world hasn't swung very far from the Album Age, and that photo- graphers will live happily ever after. WHITNEY THEATRE Friday, Jan. 24 CHAS.

Laidler, Ph.D., secretary of the Intercollegiate socialistic society. "A few years ago," declared Dr. Laidler, "the college student looked' upon socialism as the philosophy of a few utopians, of interest to economic theorists, but of no practical impor- tance in the work-a-day world. Armistice Works Change "With the signing of the armistice, the struggle for human freedom is changing from one of political democ- racy to one of industrial democracy. The question is now shifting to this: "Is the new order to be ushered in with violence and pain, or in a peace- ful an dorderly fashion? "The answer to this question will depend to no small extent ofn whether the collegians in this country possess a sympathetic understanding of the world- widemovement toward indus- trial democracy, comprehended under the general name of socialism. If future leaders are to come from the colleges, an increasing amount of at- tention iust be given to the impartial study of this problem. Aim of Socialist Society "It was for the purpose of assisting the student to learn more about socialism that the Intercollegiate socialist society was organized in 1905. The society is an educational, not a political, propagandist organi- zation and includes within its ranks men and women of all political and economic views desirous of gaining more light on the subject."
