OMEN TO ENTER'
ICHERY CONTEST
:CINNING MAY 27

Competition Open to Individuals
and Teams of Two From All
Organized Houses.
POINTS TO BE AWARDED
P ra c t ice Periods Supervised
by Major Students
Now Being Held.
Practice for the intramural arch-
ery tournament began yesterday at
the Palmer Field House and women
will have the privilege of practice
every Monday, Tuesday, and Thurs-
day afternoon. The tournament
will begin May 27 and there will
be continuous shooting 'from 3 to 6
for about two weeks after that un-
til the tourney is completed.
League houses and dormitories as
well as sororities may enter and
each woman will receive five intra-
mural points for entering. There is
no limit to the number who may
enter from one house. The winner
of first place will be given 100 in-
tramural points and the woman
finishing second will be awarded 50.
Columbia Rules Used.
The tournament will be shot un-
der the Columbia Round's rules;
that is, there will be twenty-four
arrows shot at a distance of 30, 40,
and 50 yards from the target. This
is the second time matches have
been held at Michigan under these
regulations.
At the practice periods each arch-
er will be assisted by a major stu-
dent who will keep score and give
instruction. Miss Hartwig, physical
education instructor, thinks that by
this means the women will receive
real benefit from their participa-
tion in the matches.
Held For Two Years.
These tournaments have been
held for the last two years in the
spring and fall; last fall t.ere were
sixteen women representing eight
houses taking part.
Teams of two from each house
may enter this year besides indi-
vidual entrants, Miriam Carey, '32,
W.A.A. archery manager, announc-
ed. The names of women making
up the house teams must be left on
Miss Hartwig's desk in Barbour
gymnasium before Friday, however.
MARTHA L. ROOT
TALKS ON BAHA'!
Nations May Accept Teachings
of This Movement.
"Now is the time to do things,
while we have an era of peace. We
of the west should blush with
shame if we do not know of the
great spiritual movement that is
going on the east," stated Miss
Martha L. Root, international jour-
nalist and world traveler, in a talk
yesterday on the Baha'i movement.
"The Baha'i movement is the
best one so far of any action that
has planned to bring about univer-
sal peace and disarmament. War is
a relic of barbarism and the time is
not far off, I hope, when we will
be able to look upon war as a thing
of the past. In the future the wars
of the past will be looked at as
events of the dark ages. This move- I
anent emphasizes a religion of love,
and all mankind is treated equal-
ly," she continued.
"One of the most important be-
liefs of those who opport the
Bahai movement is cooperation.i
which should be developed among
nations as well as people. It is in-
deed the teaching of justice and
generosity," Miss Root said.dh
"In these teachings we find the
solution for the economic problem.
Every child must have an educa-
tion that will fit him to earn his
own living and to make him an
asset to the community in which

he lives.
"Germany at the present time is
making an extensive study of this
movement. And I fully believe that
she will be the first to promote it
to any great extent, and will be the
first nation to have it accepted.
However, it is a clear fact that the
other nations will follow in her
footsteps closely.
We are ready to serve
you with a complete supply
of seasonable plants for

Art Exhibition Offers
One Picture in Oil
Painted by Woman
C. M. '32.
As a part of the limited but at
the same time rather comprehen-
sive exhibit of American art which
is now on at Alumnae Memorial
hall there is only one contribution
offered by a woman artist, Mar-
guerite Zorach. The show has been
brought here under the auspices
of the college art association, and
will run throughout the month of
May. ,
M i ss Zorach's oil,, A m e r ican
Landscape is one of those peculi-
arly fiat canvasses with the usual
uninteresting houses piled up in a
shiftless cubistic fashion,-one of
those pictures which is becoming
a type in almost all the current ex-
hibits. Devoid of interest in subject
matters because of this modern
conventionalism, the. picture de-
pends for its merit entirely on
compositional arrangements, and
for effect on its interplay of color.
There is a certain pleasing bal-
ance of mass within the picture
which is successful in spite of the
fact that the artist falls down on
the h a n d 1 i n g of perspective.
Strangely enough Miss Zorach cre-
ates an atmosphere of distance on
one half of her canvass and then
foreshortens her perspective in
such a radical fashion that she
loses a unity of plane which would
be most effective in the picture.
As to color Miss Zorach's palette
runs very muddy and dull but in
t h is landscape t h e drabness,
whether or not it was intentional
on the part of the artist, secures
the blurred glare of a cloudy day.
But in spite of this dullness, the
artist by no means uses dark col-
ers; in fact her canvass shifts
through reds, purples, greens, and
yellows.
Another outstanding feature con-
cerning this convass of Miss Zor-
ach is the use of shadow without
the expected amount of high-light.
Great sheathes of shadow pass
across the top of her houses and
yet there is no contrasting light
effects which would legitimately
demand this shading.

tion for senior independent women,

lowing the initiation ceremony, 'a

nae. Bertha H. Howard, '31, was in

WOMAN MANAGER MAKES SUCCESS
OF FARMERS' CO-OPERATIVE DAIRY

Women Successful
in Theatre Are
Talented or Lucky
"Two kinds of women get on in
the theatre: those who have talent
and those who have luck. When
there are both, you have genius,
and when you have sense enough
to realize that without hard work,
perserverance and sacrifice neither
of these will see you through for
long, you have success," says Miss
Isabel Leighton in an article on
"Women in the Theatre" in the
May issue of the Ladies Home Jour-
nal.
To be properly equipped for the
struggle you should have "health,
education, physical and moral cour-
age, an overwhelming desire to be
an actress and enough money to
carry you through at least six
months," she continues.
It is helpful to attenda drama-
tic school because "it gives you as-
surance and authority, but it is
useless to rely upon it as a means
of securing a position."
Miss Leighton says that your abil-
ity as a performer has nothing to
do with the amount of employment
you get. "Grooming-particularly,
the care of the nails, hair and skin-
is enormously important, and it is
usually when' you look as if you
did not need the position that you
get it," she concludes.

Mrs. Marlatt Tends Creamery
for Her Husband, Dairyman
at Georgia State.
ATHENS. Ga., May 18.--(P)-The
Dixie tradition that "women folk
can do better with the milk and
butter than men" holds good in
the S o u t h 's only co-operative
creamery dealing directly with re-
tail trade.
Farmer-cwned, farmer-controlled
and managed by Mrs. L. H. Marlatt,
the Athens co-operative creamery
has completed nine months under
this arrangement with success.
Two years' work on the part of
the manager's husband, L. H. Mar-
latt, extension dairyman at the
Georgia State college of agriculture
here, were required before farmers
could be induced to "go into busi-
ness for themselves."
Plan Wins Favor.
Now that they've had a fling at
it, they like the idea, and especially
since they have a capable woman
to "tend to it for them." The co-
operative creamery is a non-profit
organization, all dividends going to
farmer stockholders.
Products handled by the co-op
are sweet milk, buttermilk, cream,
cottage cheese, butter, and ice
cream in the summer. Products
come to the plant direct from
standardized dairy herds under
strict supervision.
"It is a quality product through-
out, and is only as good as the cow
makes it," declared Mrs. Marlatt.,
However, all the milk is pasteur-
ized at the plant, and a composite
sample taken from the milk from
each herd daily for testing pur-
poses.
Business Growing.
The plant now pays its patrons
an average of 73 'cents a pound for
butterfat. Milk is retailed at 16
cents a quart, and an average of
1,000 pounds of butter is manufac-
tured each month.
Business of the plant is increas-

ing at the rate of about $2x0 0
month, Mrs. Marlatt said. She ex-
pects it to reach a gross total of
$60,000 for the first year, ending
July 1.
Mrs. Marlatt has had 21 years'
experience in this type of work.
She and her husband came here
from French Creek, N. Y.. where
they conducted a simila r busines s.
Practicallyall the product of the
creamery is disposed of in Athens,
the co-operative supplying 351 of
800 gallons of milk consumed daily
in the city.
Emily Bates Elected
President of Society
Following the initiation of the
new members of Mortarboard, sen-
ior honorary society, the officers
for the coming year were elected.
Emily Bates will be president of
the organization, whileDorothy
Birdzell has been selected vice-
president.
Jane Inch will be secretary and
Agnes Graham, treasurer. Margaret
Thompson was chosen historian.
The initiation ceremonies were held
Sunday at the League building for
the eleven new members of the so-
ciety.

Entertains Freshmen
Mcmbcrs of the Freshman glee
club were guests of honor at a teal
given for them by the Women'sj
Glee club Sunday afternoon from'
four till six in the Ethel Fountain

ing. Miss Nora Crane hunt direc-
ter of the Major Glee club poured.
The Freshman club gave a pro-
gram during the tea. The numbers
were "At the Tea House," "Night
Song," and "To a Wild Rose." Early
Sunday :morning the younger wo-
men hiked and canoed to the is-
land in the Huron river where they
cooked their breakfast and rehears-
ed for the program in the after-
noon.
Queen of Siam Shows
Variety in Wardrobe
Paris .stvles are only a small part

pairs of stockings, and 55 pairs of
gloves, and 13 pairs of shoes, could

tidious wishes.
Queen Barni found Fifth avenue
shops were able to gather together
enough 100-gage chiffon stockings
to make darning cotton an unnec-

Her majesty pays anywhere from
$15.50, to $27.00 for her 3B shoes.

Elections of officers will be the
main business of the last meeting
of the year of the American Asso-
ciation of University Women whichl
will be held in the form of a picnic
on June 6 at the Palmer Field
House. In additon to this the work
done during this year and plans for
