Evans Writes Special Music Which He Will Play on His Own Piano. | “Ardiane and Barbe Bleue.” a fanci ; fill satire by the Belgian dramatist, j Maurice Maeterlinck, will be given by |»the class in dramatic interpretation in i Gnild hall, January 24 and 25- Barbe ! Bleue. or Bluebeard, marries as his | six wife Ardiane, a “modern" woman, and gives her the keys to the castle. Acting upon her prerogative, she opens the four doors leading to the treasure of her husband, and. likewise upon her pre rogative, opens the door of gold, which was forbidden—-There she finds the five other wives of Barbe Bleue in a dungeon, where they had been for years. Ardiane hears their stories, and straight : way shattering the window, releases | them. They are in rags and tatters, i Back in the main hall the wives array themselves in jewels and beautiful gar ments. Barbe Bleue has been captured and wounded by the mob and is brought in to Ardiane. Gut of pity she binds up his wounds and bids the mob re j lease him. But the other wives at sight of Barbe Bleue, forget their inhuman treatment at his hands and are smitten anew with love for him. They turn their backs upon their late benefactress | and stay with their lord, while Ardiane, 1 the free woman of today, leaves in dis gust. Incense Dance Opener. John Stark Evans, of the School of Music, is writing special music for the play, besides arranging the incidental songs that occur in the piece. He will also play, and will furnish his own piano for the occasion. Another fea ture of this production will be the in terpretative incense dance which will | open the first act. Everything is being done to reproduce correctly the atmos phere which was intended by the author. 1 The costumes are very careful replicas i of designs made by Leon Bakst for the ■Russian ballet. The color schemes of the settings have been closely studied to make the effect such as Maeterlinck would have it The committee in charge of costumes and setting are Mary Johns, Claire Gazley, Helen Bracht Maurice, and Frances Schenk.

As only a limited : supply of rifles were on hand, the hon ! ors of first shouldering the Spring fields went to company A. More rifles are on the way, however, and by next Monday it is expected that every com pany will have received their initial instruction in “shouldering the gun.” ★ ★ ★ Military science class 3 meeting on Saturday morning will be the first class to smell the odor of real bullets. Through arrangements with the Eugene Eifle club, the University has secured | the use of its rifle pits, and the use i of its target rifles. It is hoped before i spring comes that all men in the bat I talion will have had instruction in the ; art of marksmanship. ★ ★ ★ All company officers are recjnested to send their men up the right-hand stairs and down the left, of the bal cony. when going after or returning rifles. This arrangement will do away with all congestion. * * ★ I No song has yet been received at the 1 | commandant’s office that has been ac j cepted as a battalion song.

By so doing you will increase its feeding value from 20 to 30 per cent, since the hog is not able to digest the whole grain to advantage. An abiding element of character is grit, which enables one to clutch his idea with an iron grip and keep his pur pose pointed in the direction of the right road toward success.

Each man had made an ex haustive study of his subject, Kennedy having gone to work in one of the Port land yards in order to become more familiar with the industry at first hand. Mr. Mannel advanced the view that the wooden ship is to continue in popu larity after the war. and that on ac count of the snperior advantages en joyed by Oregon in the way of avail able fir lumber, favorable climate for outdoor work, and plenty of protected harbors, this state is in position to build lip a permanent industry. Mr. Kennedy contended ythat the steel shipyards will be active at least five years after the war, and that the de mand may continue as long as 20 years. Other students insisted, however, that there will be little work for the steel yards when the war is over. FRESHMAN JOINS MARINES Floyd Gray Leaves University for Ser vice With Soldiers of Sea.
