The Stratford Festival Company's performance of "Richard II" on Tuesday evening at the Wilson Theatre in Detroit was, first of all, a personal triumph for the actor George Hayes, who played the title role. In writing this play Shakespeare apparently indulged his personal artis- tic interests.

When he should be King, he persists in being either an actor or a lyrical poet. In every one of his scenes he steals the center of the stage and holds it. Let him but find his role and he will play it to his own satisfaction and to the amazement of his audience.

T[his same question may be perplexing many men now in college-freshmen as well as seniors-who are thinking seriously of their future. The Old Counsellor's talk has been reprinted under the title, The Bond Business-Its Scope and Requirements. A copy will be supplied to any college student who would like to read it. This talk is typical of those-which have been given on the Halsey, Stuart &z Co. program in the past year and a half. Tliey cover a wide field. 'Alnost every investor has been confronted with some of the problems discussed. Invest- ment Trusts, Convertible Bonds, Bid and Asked Prices,the Meaning and Im- portance of Call Features-these are some of the more technical subjects which have been treated in the Old Counsellor's interesting and under- standable way. These programs may help you decide whether you wish to enter the invest- ment field upon graduation and will be valuable preparation, if you do. Or, if you are training for business or the pro- fessions, these weekly talks will prove helpful when you later take up the handling of your funds or those en- trusted to you. It will pay you to listen to the Halsey, Stuart & Co. radio pro- gram, every Thursday evening. tj Opportunities in the Investment Business Department Managers Advertising.................
