The announcement that the Stanford Glee Club Is coming to the city and will give a concert .at the Baker Theater on Friday night has created a great deal of Interest In Portland, for everybody has friends at Stanford, and it is a well known fact that the Glee Club men are exceedingly popular on account of their own personality, aside from their musical ability.

EVENTS OF THE WEEK, The subject for discussion at the Cur rent Events Club on Tuesday evening was "Economics." The well-known satire by Lowell, entitled "The Pious Editor's Creed," was a good preface. Miss Marie La Barre, the reader, portrayed well the spirit of the satire. In a SO-minute paper on "Economics," Mrs. W. Wynn Johnson treated the subject in an original and in teresting t manner. She found something to commend in the federation of waee- earners as well as in organized capital, out equally condemned the drnnMr de mands of both parties. In' closing, she very cleverly referred to President Roose velt's message to Connress. wherein he touched upon the economic conditions of the country. Miss Annylyd Jones read a paper on the book output of the passing year. Ihe interest of the paper was much enhanced by charm of voice and ex pression. Mrs. W. G. Fisher's rendition of the beautiful ."Prize Song" of Wagner proved her not only fine In technique, but a sympathetic Interpreter of exquisite harmonies, a true musician. Miss Wal ton's portrayal of the invasion of the "Highyer Culchure" Into Dinah's home was heartily encored and the reader kind ly responded with a selection entitled "Nothing at All.".
