Dramatic Club Holds Open House Wednesday Night in Little Theater
With a record opening audience, the visitors, the Dynamic Club conducted one of its most successful of Popular Plays Wednesday. An enthusiastic audience packed the Little Theatre in Green Hall to see two one act plays, "Sabatole," and "The Barringtons at Home."
Burney Miller, president of the club, played the lead in the first play, a gripping, yet not melodramatic tragedy. He was supported by Ruth Miller, Jessie Martindale, and Carl Winnor. The second play, a refreshing comedy depicting the trials of a new clergyman, included in its cast Marta Thompson, Margery Fulton, Arlene Rumberger, and James O'Donnell. The program was followed by a business meeting of the Dramatic Club.

RUG EXHIBIT CONTINUES
Students May View Thayer Collection at Any Time During Day
Many students are unaware of the exhibit of oriental iruqs, which are on display on the third floor of the Administration building. The exhibit is open daily to students from 8:30 o'clock to 4:30 o'clock.
According to Professor W. A. Griffith of the School of Fine Arts, the collection is one of the best of its kind exhibited at any American University.
Mrs. B. Thayer, owner of the rugs,
announces that she will tell the
students the history of the rugs at any
time during the exhibition. The exhibit is
to a few weeks.
“There is a very large margin of profit between the cost of wool and that of finished garments,” says the New York Times, “and whether this will be reduced or not rests upon the ultimate consumer, whose intentions both manufacturers and dealers are anxious to discover.”
The rugs represent a large sum of money, one rug being valued at $15, 000 while several rugs in the collection are valued at $10,000.
One a Minute
Sure thing, and what's `true` of wool also applies to every other raw product. But, manufacturers and retailers use synthetic yarn. An ultimate consumer who will finally believe that he, or she, cannot exist without diamonds, silicone-fox fur, autos or other princely items, can even every minute—Lewland Press.

To the Students of K.U. Opening of Normandie Cafeteria
We are pleased to announce the opening of our new Normandie Cafeteria, this Saturday, Jan. 17, at 11:00 in the morning.
January 17, at 11:00 a.m.
We have long seen the need of a Cafeteria in Lawrence, and are now preparing to give this service with the best of everything on the market at the lowest possible price. We invite all the students both men and women to visit us. Each day the Normandle will have different menus. The boys and girls of the University who miss Mother's salads, pies and preserves, will find them here.
Owing to the scarcity of labor, and the inability of the factories to deliver fixtures, we will not be able to open with the equipment we planned to have. Because of this we wish to ask our patrons to please have patience a little while longer.
The slogan of the Normandie Cafeteria will be "Just one good meal after another". We will feature hot biscuits, and everything served will be cooked in our own kitchen.
We earnestly ask the cooperation of our patrons in making this institution a success.
