The correct clothes for engineers to wear when strolling o'er the campus or attending classes is as follows: Senior engineers should wear light brown corduroys and a thoughtful look at all times when on the campus. Junior engineers on the other hand should have gray-brown corduroys. Those members of the class who want to be "chic" should by all means wear an entire suit of the same material of which their trousers are made. Sophomores and freshmen are still in that state of indecision which is FOUR DAYS UNTIL MICHIGANENSIAN SUBSCRIPTION CAMPAIGN. SAVE 50 CENTS so typical of them. The sophs want to wear corduroys and the freshmen would like to further label themselves as yearlings by wearing flannel shirts. Having wisdom beyond their years, however, they have decided to ask the seniors for permission before they take any further steps. The denizens of the architectural drafting rooms are still "up in the air" about their fashions. Perhaps it is because they are "up in the air" that the senior architects have decided on a distinctive hat for their badge. If they don't find anything to their liking in the realm of "hattery," they will adopt a coat as their con- tribution to the sacred cause of tradi- tin.'

At present children in Illinois be- tween the ages of 14 and 16 are al- lowed to work the year around under certain limitations as to hours of la- bor. They must have a certificate to show that conditions have been com- plied with. Thanksgiving patrons of the Ma- jestic, usually of a lenient nature, had small cause to exercise their leniency last night when Boyle Woolfolk, Inc.,' presented "The Girl Worth While." The musical comedy is built around a vaudeville star, who, while resting .in the Wisconsin dells, falls in love with a- traveling man who is attempt- ing to promote an automatic hook- and-eye dress, that is "both a boon to the wife and a cure for the divorce evil." Complications ensue the mo- ment that the star, Flora Fine, learns that she is the owner of valuable lake front property. She comes very near selling it for $500, but through the in- tervention of Arthur Conrad, the com- mercial man, she is given a check for $20,000, and Flora, afraid that Conrad is wanting to marry her only for her money, ends the affair. Two years later, Flora, now a Broad- way star, rich, and the owner of a beautiful home, meets Conrad., new agent for a steam radiator concern, and although for a short time deluding him into believing that she is mar- ried, he learns the truth, to their mu- tual satisfaction. Flora Fine is an actress with a most charming personality, and no little ability to dance, but her husky voice is a great handicap. Silent Smith evokes waves of laughter in his periodical trips to the water cooler, and the audience thoroughly appreci- ated the waking-up of "the unsoph- isticated girl." PHOTOGRAPHER FACES DAWQORKS Picture Taking on Canadian Front in France Is No Sinecure London, Nov. 10.-(By Mail.)-Film- ing the Canadian "Tommies" on the Somme is a dangerous but interesting occupation, according to the man who has turned the crank or pressed the bulb for months for the benefit of all the eyes of Canada. Canada's official picture maker is Lieutenant Ivor Castled it has just been publicly announced. Armed only with a black box and a photographic lense he has been under fire hundreds of times. Pictures which have thrilled Canadian and American movie audi- ences and filled the Anglo-Canadian newspapers have in most cases been made with death lurking near. Back in Fleet street where (Castle was a press photographer before the war, he is hailed by his fellow journal- ists as a hero. Like veteran war cor- respondents, Castle practiced for the job of filming Canada on the Somme by photographic work during the lit- tle skirmishes before the great world war. He faced fire with his lens in the Chinese revolution, the Balkan- Turkish war, the South African war and the Turco-Italian trouble. When the king and queen arrived for the Indian Durbar, Castle was there to film the ceremonies. But these were mere trifles compared with the Can- adians on the Somme, Castle has told his Fleet street colleagues. ir--- t-e-rUoy, ut af11r during vacation season, recommended aspire to wear corduroys, but after by Oscar F.
