FOOD AND DRUG STORES
TO EIVEINSPECTION
FRATERNITIES, SORORITIES, AND
BOARDING IjOUSES IN-
CLUDED
A staff of state food and drug in-
spectors under the personal super-
vision of State Deputy Commissioner
Burton F. Browne is in Ann Arbor
giving all food and drug supply cen-
ters official attention.
The campaign consists of a thor-
ough investigation intosstocks of
groceries, meats, and drugs. All fra-
ternities, sororities, and boarding
houses in the vicinity of the campus
are included in the work of the state
officials.
"During these days of war and high
prices," said Mr. Browne, "Our peo-
ple are learning the art of protecting
the dollar, and of seeing that it is
judiciously guided through the pur-
chasing channels of food supplies.
Fancy, beribboned packages and many
other price-elevating ideas are meet-
ing their doom. The citizens of the
state of Michigan are nobly and
patriotically responding to the call for
conservation, which will assist in sus-
taining life, and winning the war."
The corps of investigators here with
Mr. Browne are R. S. Woodruff, How-
cll; Charles Howson, Detroit; C. E.
Swift, Detroit; Henry Dieterle, Dex-
ter; M. A. Jones, Ypsilanti; R. S.
Edson, Adrian, and Elmer Mohn, De-
troit.

CAMP CUSTER PLANS FOR LARGE
CROWD AT Y. M. C. A. DEDICATION'
Camp Custer, Oct. 16.-Elaborate
plans are being made to provide for
the enormous crowds on Association'
day, Friday, when the new Y. M. C. A.
auditorium is to be dedicated.
Arrangements are under way for
special Pullman cars from Calumet,
via Chicago, extra interurbans from
Jackson, Grand Rapids and Ann Ar-
bor, and hundreds of automobiles to
bring the visitors out to camp in time'
for a general visit and mess with the
Michigan boys before the meeting in
the auditorium.
Masonic Works Added to Library
Reports from the committee of the
American Library association show
that the $1,000,000 book campaign has
been successful.
Volumes are still being brought in
throughout the country. Chicago re-
ports that 30,000 volumes have been
received by institutions in that city.

Washington, Oct. 15.-That mothers
and relatives may hear the voices of
beloved ones, who are serving with
the United States marines in France,
a Massachusetts woman has suggested
that blank phonograph records be for-
warded to the boys in the trenches.
"Such records would- prove dear to
every household from which a son is
serving; it means tpat even though
he be killed in battle, his voice can
still be heard by those he held most
dear," writes the woman to marine
corps officials, here, who have taken
the matter under consideration.
French is more popular than Ger-
man at the University of Oregon this
year. The reason given is that the
many recruits attending school wish
to get a working knowledge of the
French, language before being called
into service.

AT THE WHITNEY
"Happy" Lou Whitney and her as-
sociate players surprised a large audi-
ence at the Whitney this week, in their
production, "The Net."- Miss Whitney
has opened an indefinite engagement
her in stock, and her company will
present the amusing farce "Hello
Bill,' during the latter half of this
week.
"Flora Belle," the season's musical
comedy success, direct from a run of
six months at the Casino theater, New
York, will be the coming attraction at
the Whitney, Oct. 20. This play sounds
the keynote of something new in mu-
sical comedy. It is entirely different
from the usual thing offered in this
line but is suggestive of "Adele" or
"The Merry Widow." The producer
will present a specially selected cast
of 50 people and the music is unus-
ually tuneful.

MILITARY AUTHORITIES SAY
POISON PLOT EXAGGERATED
Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-Military au-
thorities are convinced that the sus-
pected poison plot case in which Sam-
uel B. Livingood, a Princeton aviation
student is held, has been greatly ex-
aggerated and the general court mar-
tial scheduled for today was indef-
initely postponed. The boy may soon
be released.
"It develops," said Lieut. J. J. Liv-
ingston, the military prosecuting of-
ficial, today, "that Livingood had pur-
chased the poison more than three
years ago and we have little reason to
doubt that he intended to use it for
photographic purposes, as it was con-
tended."
Prof. Scott Translates Russ Poems
Four poems by Nickolay Nekrasov,
translated from the Russian by Pro-
fessor F. N. Scott of the University
rhetoric departmen, appear in the
last number of the Russian Review,
quarterly magazine published in the
interest of Russian literature and art.
