ANNUAL SPREAI 11WILL REGIN
WITHO gRAND) MARCH AT
930O'COCK
,==Sophomore women will entertain
freshman wonen at the annual
reshmai Spread which will be held
from 8:30 to 10:30 o'clock tonight in
Barbour gymnasium.
The Freshman Spread is one of the
social traditions among University
women. Every year, the sophomores
act as hostesses at this affair which is
given with the aim of making enter- I
ing University women feel more a vit.*
al part of their school and of giving
the new women an opportunity to
meet the upperclasswomen as well as
their own classmates. Junior advis-
ors are expected to escort their fresh-
nmmn to the party tonight and senior
'women on the campus will be honor
gpets. Freshman women who have
not heard from their junior advisor are
invited to come to the Spread any-
*ey.
When the enrollment of women in
t e University was comparatively
smaller than at the present time, an
All-campus spread was given by some
of the faculty women In an effort to
Slleviate the feeling of homesickness
among new women. The Spread de-
Avloped from this into an annual cus-
- tom and is given in the same spirit.
4The party this evening, following
the usual custom, will be a formal af-
fair. The grand march which is
scheduled to begin at 9 o'clock will
be led by Jean Kyer, '27, chairman
of the Freshman Spread. Favors will
be distributed during the march by!
%M44arriet Abbot, '27, chairman of the
favor contmittee. Jean Buck's or-
'chestra will furnish music for the
dancing.
'.The patronesses for the Freshman
Spread include: Dean Jean Hamil-
ton, Miss Grace Richards, Mrs. Amy
Hobart, Miss Ethel McCornick, Mrs.
John R. Efl nger, Mrs. Wilbur R.,Hum-
Sphreys, Mrs.George W. Patterson, Mrs.
Marcus L. Ward, Mrs. Alfred H. Lloyd,
Mrs. Hugh Cabot, Mrs. Emil Lorch,

jQED CROSS CHRIT A
SEALS ON SALE BY Y.Yw
Red Cross Christmas seals are be-
ing sold to University women, this
year, as formerly, through the Amer-
loanizatiOn committee of the Y. W. C.
A. Reva Allen, '26, is chairman of the
committee which is composed Of the
folldwing women: Elizabeth Hayes,
2 25, Marjorie Weber, '27, Helen Leon-
ard, '25, Louise Carlisle, '26, Frances
Hinkley, '26, Frances Penoyer, '26,1
and Helen Hebauf, 26.
Contrary to custom, a method of
personal solocitation will be used,
each committee member being respon-
I ible' for from 10 to 12 organized
!houses. The work, which was start-'
ed the first of this week, wil continue
through the first half of next week
. ,nd a report of sales made will be
given at a committee meeting which
2ti11 be held at '4 o'clock Wednesday
at Newberry hall.
The idea of the Red Cross stamp
did not come to the United State un-
til 1907, in spite of the fact that it
was originated in 1903 in Denmark.
The idea first came to Einar Hol-
boell, a postal clerk in a small town
of Denmark, on Christmas Eve, after
he had watchehd for days the waste!
of Christmas stamps. His spirit
aroused men of distinction and a com-
mittee was formed. Many mail clerks
agreed to work overtime in order to
sell the seals. The plan was so well'
liked by the people of Denmark, that,
it soon spread to other countries and
as a result it is practically a univer-
sal custom today.

Costumer Comments
On Opera S t y l e s
A beautiful gown worn by a woman
without natural grace and poise can
never be shown off to advantage, ac-
codling to Mrs. Lester, wife of the
designer and costumer for the Michi-
gan Union Opera. Mrs. Lester be-
lieves that certain gowns are made
for certain individuals and only those
types can give the desired effect
when the gown is worn.
Mrs. Lester is a partner in her hus-
band's business and is in Ann Arbor
assisting in the fitting and alterations
of the costumes which will be worn
by the men in the Opera. "The co-
tumes aid in making a play spectacu-
lar and attractive," said Mrs. Lester
"but they alone can never make' a
play. A good producer, perfect light"
ing effects and other smaller details
are important in giving the atmos-
phere and desired effect to the gowns
on the stage."
"Of course," said Mrs. Lester, when
referring to the costumes for this'
year's Opera, which are Chinese and
modern in style, "the Chinese designs
have been and still are in vogue but
the presen-t trend of fashion for wo-
men today has a tendency to lean
more toward the Spanish for inspira~
tion and ideas."
The Lester company in' Chicago oc-
cupies two entire floors of a building
located on the Loop. They study each
individual who comes to them for
costuming and offer them the service
of suggestions for costuming which
will suit their particular type. Les-
ter company carries a complete line
of ready-to-wear costumes, rentals
and made-to-order costumes. Artists
in .their employ sketch the designs,
the work being done in this build-
ing. Special display rooms are also
included in these offices.
"The Opera this year," declared
Mrs. Lester, "is more beautiful,' more
spectacular than ever before. "I
imagine the audience will get more
humor out of the lines this year while'
some of the special dancing is te'
best I have ever seen. The singing
this year, is also better than it has
been in the past. As for the gowns'
they are artistic and gorgeous. They
carry out the Chinese and modern
styles. In addition to all this, the
Opera has the producer, the lighting
effects and the other details that all
go in making up a truly artistic pto-
duction."
Life Saver Gives
Tests To WonOn
Various principles to be observed
in life saving were presented and
demonstrated to students of the pro-
fessional school of physical 'educa-
tion by Mr. A. S. Mareau of Chicago,
a life saver from the central divion
of the National Red Cross, yesterday
at the Y. M. C. A. His demonstration
included a novel method of floating,
an easy method of carrying three per-
sons at one time, and other features.
Mr. Mareau also gave life-saving
tests to six of the women.
LAST JUNIORPLAY TY

Sarah Caswell Angell hall, the last

Approximately 150 chorus parts and

the play, some unusually fine talent
has' been discovered in the tryouts
this year, but the small number of
leading roles makes it necessary to
"take only. the cream of the dramatic
talent."
