making his pretty face look tough

mother, saves the day with her fin-
ished acting.
Franz Schubert would turn over
twice in his grave if he could see Nils
Asther impersonating him and hear
his music murdered as it is in "Love
Time." The story of this picture is
supposed to be his love story, which
beside the fact of his greatness, is
ordinary. However, the producers
have obviously selected it as a vehicle

shifts the interest from him to her.

Association, is "The Next War."
Sound motion pictures will be used
to supplement the lecture and sev-
eral reels will be shown portraying a
zeppelin air raid over London and
many views of buildings owned by
the League of Nations in Geneva,
Switzerland.
The scenario for the pictures was
written by Burnet Hershey, war cor-
respondent of the New York Times.
Dr. Onderdonk has just returned
from a speaking tour of many col-
leges in the eastern section of the
United States. He lectured at Dart-
mouth. Harvard, Mt. Holyoke, and
Smith.
The lecture to be given by Dr. Ond-
erdonk today will include a short his-
tory of warfare from the Stone Age
down to the present time, and will
show many of the latest inventions
designed to be used by armies in wars
of the future.
Prof. Preston W. Slosson of the his-
tory department will introduce Dr.
Onderdonk.

voices, lots of pep and spontaneity,
exceptional dancing, beautiful cos-
tumcs, and a calibre of acting that;
could put many professionals tot
shame. It moves along with remark-;
able speed, closely in harmony with
the lilting tunes, delightful humor,
and pleasing charms of the work. In
short. it is good Gilbert 'and Sulli-
van.
Many will remember the story of
"Iolanthe," the fairy who breaks her
vows by marrying a mortal man. She
is condemned by her fairy queen, who
twenty-five years later repents and
brings her back to the fold. During
the interim, a. half mortal-half im-
moratal son was born to Iolanthe. He
falls in love with a mortal - a ward
of the Lord Chancellor of England,
who cannot marry a commoner. All
sorts of delightful situations result,
and to these are added the inimitable
Gilbert and Sullivan touches and side
issues, plus th6 light opera element,
all of which make it a charming piece
of entertainment.
The hopors in acting go to almost
