The program for the remainder of the summer as now fixed Is: DAMAGE IN BOTH PENINSULAS LESS THAN ONE MILLION DOLLARS Lansing, Mich., July 11. --The mon- etary loss through the recent forest fires in the upper peninsula and in the northern section of the lower penin- sula of Michigan will be much less than was originally estimated, accord- ing to State Fire Commissioner Baird.' Much of the landtburned over was merely covered with second growth nd underbrush and most of that is now in prime condition, it is said, for farming. Considerable standing tim- ber and some that had been cut was touched by the flames in some sections but the loss in this respect waz much less than at first was expected. . The destruction of cover for the wild' bird and game is considered a serious loss, however, as practically all cover was burned over tracts of thousands of acres. Many lumbering camps were destroyed, a number of farm buildings were lost and crops were badly dam- aged in some sections. There was also a considerable loss in cut wood, pulp wood, posts, and poles. Commissioner Baird places the total tosses at less than $1,000,000 in both1 peninsulas, although early figures had made it as high as $2,000,000. Approx- niately 50,000 acres were burned over, t is stated. Within two years the blackenedT areas will again be green with growing ?)ush and trees and, according to some iuthorities, in another couple of yearst .ill constituteanother firestrap, un- less the state takes measures to keep1 dying and dead undergrowth cleared1 -way.N It is said that sparks from locomo- tives, camp fires and fires started by men clearing ground are responsiblel n most cases for Michigan's annual plague of woods conflagrations.l OLD PHI KAPPA PSI HOUSE IN PROCESS OF DEMOLITION Demolition of the old Phi KappaT Psi fraternity house at the corner ofr Hill street and Washtenaw avenue hap begun in order that work may soont start on the construction of a newf home. The new residence of the fra- ternity will be built along old EnglishI lines, of brick construction with slate roofing. Unusual plans for housing the mem- bers have been adopted, as each man will have an individual study andC sleeping room. The ground floor di- mensions of the house will be 135 by 40 feet. The old home of the frater- nity is one of the landmarks of Ann9 Arbor.a GREAT BRITAIN FEARS U. S. f COMPETITION IN SHIPPINGa interesting of the summer entertain- ments. Talent was drawn from the four quariers of the globe, there being three Japanese, one Hindu, one native of France, one Russian and one South African on the -program. Dean E. H. Kraus of the Summer school introduced Ralph Carsn, '17, who was master of ceremonies for the evening. In his opening talk Mr. Car- son gave some interesting informa- tion about the Cosmopolitan club and pointed out the international character of the organization. U. of U. Club Largest "The Cosmopolitan club of the Un- iversity of Michigan is the largest or- ganization of its kind in the country and numbers among its members the natives of 36 countries. Our program tonight, the League of Nations vaude- ville, is an example and proof of the international character of the club," said Mr. Carson. All of the arangements for the en- tertainment were made by the mem- bers of the club under the direction of A. Elkind, '20, the president. ,Japanese Music Givein The first number on the seven-act program was the rendition on the Jap- :anese flute of several Japanese musical selections by M. Uyehara of the School of Music, Mr. Evert Hackes then gave a talk on Swiss yodeling, which he demon- strated with several examples. P. Kwok next rendered several sel- ections of Chinese music on a Chinese mandolin and followed them with oth- er selections on a Chinese flute. Several mandolin solos were then given by A. Elkind, accompanied on the piano and guitar by F. Daniels. El- kind rendered "Ai nostri monti" and "Il balen del suo sorriso," from "II Trovatore." Mrs. Helen lDyason Sings Mrs. Helen Dyason, accompanied by Mrs. F. Snith on the piano, sang sev- eral soprano solos.

North Dakota as a commonI gob in order to get first hand inform- ation regarding a sailor's life at sea., His purpose in doing so is to discoveri for himself if conditions aboard ship are such that a man would rather be sent to the naval prison than stay in' the fleet, as one sailor claimed when1 Washington, July 11. - Steamship lines to Hamburg and Bremen, Ger- many, wil be established as soon as cargoes are available at American ports, the United States shipping board announced today. i The lines will operate from Bos- ton, New York, Baltimore and Phila- delphia, one vessel to be allocated to the line between Philadelphia and Hamburg at once. For the shipment of cotton, lines also will be started from southern ports. Trade between the United States and Germany will be resumed immediate- ,y, Acting Secretary of State Polk an- nounced. Blanket Licenses Mr. Polk said blanket licenses would be issued, but that dyes,' chemicals sand potash would be excepted. Con- trol over trade in these commodities will be exercised by the reparation commission, under terms of the peace treaty. Germany will need immediately ,from the United States, according to department of commerce officials, large quantities of cotton, copper, ker- osene oil and iucreased amounts of fodstuffs and wearing apparel. Closed Snce 1914 Trade with Germany has been at a standstill virtually since August, 1914. Grmany's total imports from the United States in 191 amounted to $407,246,000. Cotton, copper, raw fur skins and kerosene oils were the prin- cpal commodities, together with food- stuffs, wheat being the largest of the latter. In that year Germany import- ed $109,960,000 worth of cotton, $69,- 8991,000 of copper, $15,827,000 of skins, $15,612,000 of kerosene oils and $39,- 243,00 of wheat. American imports from Germany consisted principally of toys, potash, dyestuffs, chemicals and drugs, deli- cate precision, instruments, pottery, porcelains and graniteware. Cut off from German supplies, Amer- ican firms began the manufacture of ,many commodities previously obtained. from Germany, and legislation to pro- tect these industries from "dumping" by German firms is now pending in congress. PUMP STEERE FARM WATER INTO MAINS Water from the Steere farm wells! owned by the city has been pumped at intervals into the eastern mains of the city for some time, it has become known. It was for the purpose of making tests of this source of supply that the water was turned into the mains, and as further tests are to be made, officials of theuwaterdepart- ment decline to give out any informa- tion concerning the investigations. For the purpose of determining the fullest capacity of the new plant east of the city, the officials wish to make the tests as complete as possible dur- ing the present season. DIRECTORS OF BANK ACT AS PALL BEARERS AT FUNERAL Members of the board of directors of the Farmers and Mechanics bank will act as pall bearers at the funeral of their business associate, Jacob' Schultz, this afternoon.

There are a few geed positions open, es- pecially for those who hope to gain experience for work on The Daily in the fall. WAR FORTUNES BOOST, PRICES OF ANTIQUES OLD FURNITURE AND ART WORKS IN GREAT DEMAND WITH ENGLISHMEN London, June 15.-(Correspondence) -The enormous fortunes made in England during the war are responsi- ble for record breaking prices which sellers of antiques of every kind are realizing in London auction-rooms, in the opinion of men who have long been close to the trade. The whole country is being searched for treas- ures of all kinds which find ready sale at prices which hitherto have 1een paid only by foreigners. A mysterious portrait which recent- ly appeared in one auction room and 'was said by some one to have been by Franz Hals quickly brought $60,000, although its authenticity has even now not been established. A Reynolds por- trait which to the present had not at- tracted much attention was easily sold for $70,000, and pictures by much less- er lights brought phenomenal prices. Artistic Furniture in Demand Artistic furniture is in even more demand. Six Chippendale Gothic chairs recently sold at a country sale for $5,125, in spite of the fact that modern artists are copying this par- ticular design with marked success and only the trained expert can detect the difference. At another country sale two Chippendale tables brought $1,600 and a Chippendale cabinet $6,250. Sheraton furniture is not so pop- ular, excellent tables going as low as $100. An old harpsichord in a Wil- liam and Mary case sold for $2,500, and a grandfather's clock gave its fortu- nate owner $600 in spite of the fact that the clock had probably ceased to tick more than 100 years ago. Illuminated Manuscripts Illuminated manuscripts also are in demand, and as in the case of furni- ture, record prices are being obtain- ed. Letters of David Garrick, and a few by his wife, to noted persons of their time, caused spirited bidding, but were withdrawn and will be offered again. Efforts to trace the purchasers of some of the choicest offerings have revealed the presence in the market of persons who never before paid any attention to antiques. Many of them are persons who accumulated large fortunes during the war, and 'now that they have acquired fine houses have set out, with the aid of experts, to give them the ancient touch requir- ed by good taste. TRAFFICKING IN WAR SAVINGS STAMPS TO BE INVESTIGATED WOLVERINE TRYOUTS Several Acts Already Arranged; Tr outs To Take Place Tuesday Afternoon Plans for the 1919 Joyshow to It given Aug. 7 in Hill auditorium, ar being made. This entertainment wi resemble the Band bounce and Spo light in that the students of the Un: versity will participate in the s1v putting on vaudeville skits, such a song acts, dance turns, and one ac comedy stunts. Some acts have already been secur ed, and further tryouts will be con ducted by Vernon S. Foote, '21, gtcera chairman, at 5 o'clock Tuesday after noon in the assembly room of the Un ion for the purpose of obtaining eigh or nine high class entertainers. The Joyshow will be under the sup ervision of the Michigan Union. Al proceeds from the entertainment wil go to the benefit of the American .Un iversity Union in Paris. \ Dean Kraus Sanctions Show ° Edward H. Kraus, dean of the Sum mer session, has given his sanction t the enterprise, saying: "Among u this summer are a large number o teachers who are taking advanee work at the University during thei vacation. The Joyshow will affori these men and women a glimpse of th non-academic side of the University The impression which they will carr back with them will be the impressioi made by a Summer session which is has it should be, more nearly like th winter term." The large attendance at the Sum mer session, including an unusua number of regular students, is respon sible for this - effort to inject into th Summer term some of the regular en thusiasm and school spirit. Promotor of this enterprise have been successfu in finding many entertainers who have been in previous productions of Uni versity talent. Moore to Direct Music Earl V. Moor, of the Universit: School of Music, whose work in th recent Michigan Union opera met witl much success, has assumed the direc ation of the music. He expects to organ ize an orchestra which. he thinks wil equal the standard set by previous pro ductions promoted by the Union since there is such an abundance o musical talent here this summer. There is a possibility that E. Morti mer Shuter,' director of "Come On Dad" may come to Ann Arbor thit summer in time to direct the show. Mr Shuter, it is known, intends to retur here in the near future to begin worl on the 1920 opera. w Heath's Statement Homer Heath, general secretary p the Union, says of the proposed enter tainment: "One of the most desirabl results that come out of the campu activities which characterize the wint er session, is a strong influence towar the unification of the student body The shows and games, of which w have such a plentiful supply during the winter, have been lacking in the Summer session. The result has bee a more or less heterogeneous studen body. It is hoped that a show give by students of the Summer session wil help to remedy this condition." Margaret K. Jewell, '20, of the Car goyle art staff will design a poster fo adveritsing use. 1. W. W. PLAN CITY OF OWN; WE HOPE THIY STAY TIER Spokane, July 11.-An I. W.
