Vaudeville Show Nears Perfection Endmen and Circle Go Through Parts With Much ViM at Rehearsal Lew Dockstader would have howled In glee had he seen the ten end men for the Michigan Union minstrel go through their paces yesterday. Their dialect and snappy jokes brought one visitor who hails from below the Ma- s Dixon line to the verge of tears. He said it reminded him of home. The circle went through the ten mu- sical numbers for the first time yes- terday, and "put across" the widely- varying songs with a great deal of power and expression. The "silhouette" act, under the direction of Raye East- man, '17E, is expected to be the fea- ture of the vaudeville part of the en- tertainment. A monster silk sheet will be dropped from above the stage .and-a number of spotlights will make thd actions of those behind it visible. F. M. Adams, '17, L. W. Van Aken, '17, and L. J. Saunders '19, will play the leading roles in this skit. Tickets for non-Union members are on sale at 25 cents. Faculty men may secure tickets by calling the Union. Freshman Beholds Horrible Vision I dreamed a dream, and behold the mistress of my boarding house owned a vast farm, with cattle and the beasts of the field. And 10, in the field seven lean king overtook and devoured seven ,fat kine, and became. sick and died, and I was fed beef for a long period. And I grew restless in my sleep. And I dreamed again, and seven hungry, lean dogs attacked and de- voured seven sleek, fat dogs, and be- came sick and died, and I was fed sausage and wienies for many days. And 'I tossed about in my couch. And I dreamed again, and seven scrawny, scrappy cats seized and de- voured seven well-fed Angora kittens, and the fare disagreed with them, and they died. and I was fed hamburger and hash for 40 days and 40 nights. And my resting place became a bed of agony. And yet again I dreamed. And alas, seven lean relatives of my boarding house mistress who were unkempt and ragged, attacked and wrestled all the night with seven corpulent relatives, and were nigh unto smiting them to; death when I awoke in the fever of a nightmare. And I sought not the interpretation of my dream; yet verily did I seek a new boarding house.1 O. G. Andres for shoe repairing. 222 SHORT LOGGING COURSE TO OPEN AT U. Of w. 00TIONAL SPORT FRESH VTS DE Tl 11 R Jicrease of Efficiency in Lumbering IsI Object of Session, Says Dean Winkenwerder * * * * * * *' * * Seattle, Nov. 22.--Detailed arrange- ments are now under way for the ninth session of the short winter courses in logging, lumbering and forestry, to be beld from Jan. 3 to March 30 at the University of Washington. The work is for men engaged in forestry and lumbering, who wish to increase their efficiency, and for those who wish to enter these fields of work. As usual there will be special courses for, for- est rangers and guards, loggers, and for lumber salesmen, architects, en- gineers, and timber inspectors. "Some technical training is now practically a necessity in order to ad- vance to good positions in these vari- ous fields," says Dean Hugo Winken- werder of the college of forestry. "While it is impossible to make an ex- pert logging engineer or a full fledged forest ranger in a short practical course of Sthree months, the men are given a sufficient foundation to enable them to carry their work forward in an efficient manner." As the higher price of lumber de- mands a more efficient and closer util- ization, it is expected that the special course in the properties and uses of lumber, which was. offered last year for the first time, will draw a large number of students from among lum- ber salesmen, engineers. and archi- tects. Among the special features of the course this winter, there will be a series of lectures and demonstrations by a number of experts actively en- gaged in the lumber industry and the forest service. 01110 MEN MEET AT UNION TO ChOOSE OFFICERS FOR YEAR Members of the Ohio club held their first meeting of the year at the Union last night and elected the following of- ficers for the ensuing year: Presi- dent, Leonard W.

An evening paper car- ried a story yesterday declaring that Manager Graytop of the To- ledo team had stated that Maul- betsch would appear in their lineup for the rest of the year. "It's all poppycock," said the captain. "There's nothing to it at all." * * * * * ,I * * * * * * * ,$ .9 A'% MISS ROSE STAHL APPEARING IN "OUR M RS.

FRESH LITS IN TIE CONTEST Play 0 to 0 Game Against Sophomore Engineer Aggregation Enough thrillers took place in the 0-0 tie game between the fresh lits and the soph engineers yesterday aft-1 ernoon to have made several crowds of spectators go wild with excitement, if they had been there to see it. A touchdown on each side seemed probable, once in the beginning of the second half, when the yearlings held the boilermakers for downs and again when the anvil pounders turned the trick and held the infants tor downs when only a yard was needed to push across a score. Lowstuter, of the fresh team, made three trys at drop kicking goal, but was unsuccessful, two of the attempts being blocked and costing a big loss to the yearlings. Garrett caught a long pass and ran 35 yards for the blacksmiths, only to have his team held for downs when within striking distance of the enemy's goal. Funk of the lits covered a fumble by the enemy and got away for 15 yards before he was captured. Kane of the lits proved to be the speed demon of the contest, making several long gains by fast end runs. The lineup follows: Soph engineers -Parr, l.e.; Paden,, l.t.; Nyman and Martins, l.g.; Renwick, c; Pettyjohn, r.g.; Cooper. r.t.; Bigger'and Horwitz, r.e.; Storrer, q.; Haigh, l.h.; Middle- ditch, r.h.; Garrett, f.b.

The freshmen had a decided advant- age over their opponents during the whole game, the ball staying for the most part in dent territory. During the first half the '20 team used very little but straight football through the line. In the second half both sides opened up, the freshmen very success- fully. The dents did not seem to be able to gain by this method and most of their passes were grounded. One of the features of the game was a touchdown by Marrifield from a long pass. Both the line and the backfield of the winners worked well and seemed unusually well organized. Edwards and Marrifield' were the in- dividual players for the side if any may be chosen. Herrick and Taylor put up a good fight on the tooth-pull- ers end of the contest. The lineup: Fresh lits -- Zepp, Edwards, I.e.; Gillespie, l.t.; Schmok, Davis, l.g.

From Three Dollars Up For Sale by Z 3c U;. ~ Rose Stahl's adherauce to truth in her stage characterizations undoubt- edly adds much to ner popularity as an artist and in "Our Mrs. McChesney~ in which she comes to the Whitney theater, Friday, Nov. 24, she is said to be at her very best. She has made a great study of the character of Emma McChesney and the role is one which fits her to perfection. Mrs. McChes- ney is travelling saleswoman for the T. T. Buck Featherloom Petticoat com- pany. She is a woman such as is fre- quently met with in business and 'the character has not been in the least overdrawn by Enda Ferber, who wrote the McChesney stories. Miss Ferber's success as a short story writer has been due to the fact that her charact- ers are taken for the most part from real life. Mrs. McChesney is not in business because she loves the work, but because she wishes to send her son through college. She works and slaves that she may enjoy the com- forts of life, which is the case with thousands of women today. Mrs. Mc- Chesney longs for a home where she can bake the pies and fuss about the kitchen to her heart's content. "Our Mrs. McChesney" is a true to life com- edy and with Miss Stahl in the title role is sure to prove one of the most important of the season's attractions. (6 Th e Rtimor oGreytlDeagh is Greatly Exgerated. HNE was to give a lecture that night in London. The papers printed a report that he was dead. They hastened to send messengers. He greeted the messengers himself and sent back these words: " The rumor of my death is greatly exaggerated." And the world breathed freely and laughed. The world breathed freely at that time, but it was a dark day a few years later when that bright and brave spirit passed serenely to rest. MARK But he would not have you weep for him. He would have you find comfort in laughter, as he did him- self. Many the day you have laughed yourself into serenity over "Huckleberry Finn" or "Inno- cents Abroad." And many a time your laughter has stuck in your throat over their pathos. Even the sublime tragedy of Mark Twain's "Joan of Arc" shows a glint here and there of his whim- sical turn of mind, that makes clearer and brighter th most splen- did story in all the world's history. It is a long cry from the ridic- ulous in "Tom Sawyer" to the sublime in "Joan of Arc," and the man who could write them both was great beyond our words to tell. ;'' He had a style so simple, TWAIN so clear, so sure, that it does not seem a style at all. But beyond the style there is a sane and true philosophy of life and an understanding of the hu- man heart-a greatness of soul. That is why M arkTwain has been translated into all languages-why he is read in Chinese on the banks of' the Yangste Kiang, why the porter at his lodgings in Vienna flew to do him service and showed proudly his own set in German, why the king of England de- lighted to walk and to talk with him, why you and your children must have him where you can put your hands on him any moment. The American spirit of democracy and simplicity seems to be fading away. Get it back for yourself through Mark Twain. AT THE MAJESTIC The final show for the Fall Jubilee vaudeville week at the Majestic the- ater opens tonight and it is said to be one of the best that has appeared at the theater this season. The head- liner is "The Magazine Girls,", a min- ature musical comedy with Doc Baker and Elaine Julyette. It is a fantastical journey from the Union station in Chicago to the fashionable interior of Vanity Fair., Tilford and company will appear in one of the best novelties of the year. It is a ventriloquist act that breaks all precedents. It is known as "Abe Stibibble" and quite a lot of fun is introduced. 'Tshe play is enacted with- out the detection of the moving of lips, and there is quite a little comedy. Morris Golden is an eccentric violin- ist. Not only is he a humorist, but he is a proficient musical artist. He is well known to vaudeville patrons in the East and comes here with a good reputation as an entertainer.
