The second one turned to him.“SHHhh! Not a word,” sez he.“But I’m from The Daily Maroonand want the dope for a big story,”sez I.“Shhh!” sez he again. “It’s a deep,dark secret.

GARNERS QUAINT RELICSProf. Breasted’s unique collectionof over three thousand pieces of an¬tiques collected in Egypt and Asialast year when he was in charge ofthe University of Chicago Expeditionto the near East, will soon be readyfor exhibition in Haskell Museum.The greatest expert in this countryin mounting and repairing relics isin charge of the work of preparingthem for public view. It will only bea matter of days before the collec¬tion is thrown open to public view.Prof. Breasted said yesterday.Prof. Breasted labored undergreat difficulties in making up thecollection. At the time of his visitboth Egypt and the part of Asia hewas in, were engaged in war. Manyof the side expeditions taken byProf. Breasted were made under theprotection of the English army, buthe was able to buy up a large amountof these very valuable memorials ofearly civilization. He also paved theway for future expeditions to the FarEast by making many arrangementswith the British government to al¬low future excavations in their prov¬inces in this country.Seal Cylinders CollectedAmong the more important relicsgarnered by Prof. Breasted are thefollowing: a complete group oftwenty-five painted limestone mor¬tuary statuettes; a group of royalSeal cyliiiders. Besides tliese is afine series of some twenty-five ala¬baster vases and one-hundre-fiftypredynastic and early dynastic vasesof hard stone.There is also a splendid group ofbronzes, some of which are verylarge, unusual for bronzes of thisage. Another interesting article ofthe collection is a bronze battle axof an Egyptian army officer. Thewooden handle and the leather thronglashings holding the flint blade to thehandle are in the same condition asthe day the ax was made. This isan exceptional case of reservation.Stone Weapons CollectedA large group of sixty stone weap¬ons of this early civilization are alsoincluded in the group. A woodenstatue of a Theban noble leaning onhis spear can also be found in thegroup. This is a remarkable an¬tique for the preservation of thewood is perfect. Besides these larg¬er relics there is a vast quantity ofvaluable smaller ones. In Asia Prof.Breasted was able to purchase a largeportion of the Royal Annals ofSennacherib.Deltho Announces PledgeDeltho announces the pledging ofDoris Hoyt of Syracuse, N.

These meets bring prospect¬ive students here from all the CookCounty high schools. Many of themwill be the type of men who will makedesirable Chicago students. And oft¬entimes the question of whether theywill attend Chicago or some otherschool depends entirely on the impres¬sion they receive in the short timeduring which they mingle with Chi¬cago men. Juniors especially shouldcome out and acquaint themselveswith the work of interesting HighSchool men in the University. Wecan stand much progress in that field.MENTAL CONTAGIONMental contagion, as some professorhas called it, is a disease affecting thehuman race for which there has neveryet been found an anti-toxin or aserum strong enough. Mental con¬tagion is that peculiar phenomenon ofhuman nature which makes youngwomen shuffle along in shapeless ga¬loshes because other women are doingit: which makes women wear bunsover their ears because all of the bet¬ter class ears of the community areso covered; which makes a wholehorde of indignant people rise up todefend the particular style of dancingwhich is the mode at the moment.The only cure for the disease is anew one like it. At first the style ofwearing galoshes was all for the un¬buckled state. All the talk in theworld couldn’t have made the fairyoung ladies buckle up the affairs.Then suddenly—lo and behold, thegaiters were being buckled. Evident¬ly too many women were leaving themflapping. The disease was losing itsvirility.There was a time when silk cladlogs and high French heels were some¬thing now—something for moralists torave about, professors to denouncescientifically. But now that cottonstockings are seen only among thepoorest people or the ultra sensible,galoshes come in to make somethingdifferent. The women of the FrenchKongo are now wearing silk stockingand high heels—this mental contagionstuff is international in scope—and therank of one of these African belles isdetermined by the height of her heelsand the transparency of her hose.About four years from now the Afri¬can belles will be wearing galoshes, nodoubt.The thing spreads like a prairie fire,once it gets started. There’s no usetrying to stop it. That’s where agreat many iconoclastic would-be mo¬ralists waste a lot of air and energy.They don’t know about mental con¬tagion-more devastating than theplague. They blame the follies of hu¬man beings on inniate vdekedness, and(lenounce the toddle, galoshes, silkstockings, short skirts, evening dress¬es, jazz music, etc., accordingly. Letthem sutdy the diseases of the crowdand be wise.McADAMS FLORISTJ.

He comes of along Waldensian line. One of his an¬cestors was a captain of the so-called“Banditi” who in 1681 compelled DukeVictor Amadeus of Savoy to set freethe remnant of the Waldenses, per¬ishing in the unspeakable ducal pris¬ons, and permit them to emigrate toSwitzerland, whence, three yearslater, they accomplished the “Glori¬ous Return.”Father a Teacher.His father was for forty years ateacher and evangelist in the Walden¬sian Church and took part as an as¬sistant Chaplain in the Crimean War.His uncle, (’ommendatore Dr. Lanta-ret, was for more than thirty yearsthe Moderator of the WaldcnsianChurch.During the War, Signor Costabel“GO-FO-R”THE CAMPUS PACKAGE CANDYatThe Leading FraternitiestheReynolds ClubandUniversity Bookstore PHOENIX COMES TO RESCUE NEW ART EXHIBIT IN HARPEROF FLATTENED POCKETBOOKCopies of Ancient Manuscripts andOriginal Egyptian CuriosAre IncludedJust at the time when the Autumnquarter’s grades are revealed and theprospects for an advance from homeare ruined by the final “D,” the Phoe¬nix comes to the rescue.

As compared, for ex¬ample, to the watered molasses of“Irene,” it is a mordant materpriece,wit a smack of sophistication thatis of the vrai Parisien.Of course, when you come down tothe essence of the thing, it has allbeen spoiled by the saccharine endingwhich was tacked on by the Americanadapter, Glen McDonough; but thelogical ending, the one which toppedthe piece in Paris, is still so beauti¬fully obvious tat it is almost as ifMr. McDonoug and te League forMaking Virtue Odious ad not exi.stedat all. One sees the ending at isshould be, .;nd foi’gets Mr. McDon¬ough’s soft soap.Then there is Miss Bordoni. Wick¬ed, wicked lady—the baleful droop ofher sensuous shoulder is enough todisrupt the Methodist church. Shehas a most suggestive way of oper¬ating the seductive charms bestowedupon her by various agencies; andher way of singing a song like “Ni¬non Was a Naughay Girl,” is un¬equalled. She is a nartist in sugges¬tion, in the evocation of sensuous re¬action. Her costumes help in that agreat deal, of course, as does hernatural beauty; but a lot of it de¬pends upon her application of thetraditions of the French stage. Sheis Mary Garden minus the subtlety—a Mary Garden of the varieties, ex¬quisitely and intangibly made moreobvious.A1 Shean, too, is good; as are HelenBroderick and Clifton Webb. Thesurprise of the production, however,is the adeptness of the writing. The lyrics are clever; they rhyme (not“train” with “fame’ ’either) andthey scan. In addition, they meansomething. The best of them (in¬cluding that gem, “Ninon Was aNaughty Girl,”) are by Arthur Wim-peris, who wrote them for the Lon¬don production. The “Ninon” lyricis the high moment of the show;Miss Bordoni in it is at her best.She is at the time, by the way, wear¬ing a costume made by Paul Poiret,which is the ne plus ultra of periodgowns on the stage.Nobody seems to have noticed thatthe whole show is well written; itwould appear sufficiently obvious,from the laughter of the audience,that there are more funny lines init than in any other musical comedyfor a goodly number of months. Thepiece shows whei’e the Paris editionwas carpentered for the Londonstage, and where the London editionwas tinkered for the New Yorkstage; there are spots, even, where allthree editions appear obviously with¬in three minutes. One of the typ¬ically American lines of the piece(“This can’t be France: I haven’theard any pheasants singing the May¬onnaise”) occurs in juxtaposition tothe most typically French line (“Iam my own mistress”) and leads upto the English lyric “Ninon Was aNaughty Girl.”They say that Miss Bordoni singsoff key. ’T is true ’t is pity, and pity’t is, ’t is true. It is a safe bet, how¬ever, that nobody under fifty thinksof it while she is singing. There aretoo many other things to occupy themind. At any rate, off key or on,she has the best voice of any musicalcomedy prima donna since EleanorPainter was here; and her art is onewhich should be welcome on theAmerican stage.

JANUARY 26, 1921HARVARD THREATENED BYHIOHER TUITION RATEPresident Lowell’s Report ShowsStaggering Deficit for YearA staggering defict confx’onts Har¬vard University, and a raise in tui¬tion is imminent, according to Presi¬dent Lowell’s annual report to theOverseers of the University.The great increase in operating ex¬penses and the necessity of raisingteaching salaries made necessary thecreation of an Endowment Fund, towhich Harvard alumni all over thecountry contributed. Despite liberalcontributions, however, the Fund wasinsufficient to cover increased costs.As President Lowell says in the re¬port, “The Fund made possible anincrease of fifty per cent in the sal¬aries of the teaching staff. Therehas also however, been a large in¬crease in the wages of labor, in thecost of services of all kinds, and theprice of fuel and other materials.The result is a deficit of $161,000,which will be more than doubled forthe current year. Since it is not pos¬sible to increase the endowment fur¬ther at present, the only recouse leftfor meeting the deficiency is an in¬crease in tuition fees.’’The report lists the tuition fees insome of the neighboring colleges,points out that Harvard Universitycharges distinctly less than many ofthe larger ones, and predicts thatHarvard will probably have to followthe lead of these other colleges in ef¬fecting an increase “adjusted to thediminution in the value of thedollar.’’Your best bet—Maroon ClassifiedAds bring results.DRAMATIC CRITIC COMMENDSWORK OF SINGHAI CAST(Continued from f’age 1)Orletha Healy, Signe Wennerblad,Ella Marks, Katherine Woffolk, Shir¬ley Scroeder, and Catherine Turner;Feb. 11, Natalia Greensfelder, EllenGleason, Virginia Ault, DorothyCampbell, Katherine Roberts, MarionDurante, Clare Smith, and VirginiaKendall; Feb. 12, Helen Langley,Carmel Hayes, Margaret Schroeder,Anna Correl, Rose Fischkin, MaryLyell Sweet, Ruth Melhop and Gene¬vieve Burrhus.CLASSIFIED ADSFURNISHED ROOM—Suitable forone or two ladies. 6025 Kenwood,Apt. 2.
