Will be eligible to retire under the Carnegie Foundation this year, but have done nothing to bring it about and- do not intend to, for the present. There is too much going on in the Univer- sity, particularly, in the college of engineering, in which I wish to have a hand to think of let- ting go just now. M. E. COOLEY.

Rugged mountains and deep can- yons form the background for the scenes in "Told in the Hills," which will be shown today and tomorrow at the Majestic, featuring Robert War- wick. It is a story of Montana in the '80's and is woven about a man who be- comes known as "Genesee Jack," pro- spector.. The tale is set in motion when "Genesee" and his younger brother promise their mother that they will shield her ward, Ann Belleau. The younger brother is untrue to his trust and to save Ann's good name "Genesee" marries her although he does not love her. Then he goes to the frontier where his only friends are Indians, and lives apart from civiliza- tion. Ann Little plays opposite War- wick 'in "Told in the Hills." THE ARCADE May Allison ;in "The Walk-Offs," a picturization of Frederic : and Fanny Hatton's stage comedy of the same ti- tle, will be shown today and tomor- Fow at the Arcade. Appearing as Kathlden Rutherford, a young society woman, Miss Allison's hand is sought by -a wealthy bounder, and a young Kentucky mine owner. She under- stands the former but does not love him; her acquaintance with the other ripens into a romance that is accom- panied by excitement and uncertainty. An imposing court scene, with its action carried through in a satirical vein is one of the amusing features that comes early in the picture.
