"The Road to Yesterday."

"The Road to Yesterday" is the imagination appealing title of a new play which is to receive its first local performance at the Shubert Theatre, Kansas City, Mo., Thanksgiving week. It is declared to be an absolute footlight novelty, and, as its name implies, it has a somewhat mystic element of the supernatural in it. The central idea is that of the Reincarnation of Souls, and all the characters of this play, the action of which begins in modern London, are made to re-live for one-half of the drama their seeming lives of three hundred years ago. Since the play begins on Midsummer Eve and a dream figures in its plot, one might be inclined to class it with that type of fanciful drama which has so long had its supreme exponents in Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream" and "The Tempest." But no fairies or elves or other extraordinary folk-lore characters enter into "The Road to Yesterday," although there cross the scenes the picturesque figures of a gypsy and a witch. Neither, it appears, can the title of "Dream Play" be applied to this odd new piece if "Dream Play" be used in its original German sense of "Traumspiele," of which the best known example to Americans is "The Sunken Bell" of Gerhardt Hauptmann. There is no allegory, according to advance account, in "The Road to Yesterday," nor does its story deal with any impossible characters or events. The Shubert theatre management is now filling mail orders for the Thanksgiving engagement and especial attention is being given to the accommodation of out of town visitors.

But few connected with the University know that the chemistry department operates one of but five liquid air commercial plants in the United States. An industry the product of which sells for $150 per month besides supplying as much for the use of the chemistry department has been built up within the last year—and that too in liquid air.
The machine that makes the air is in one of the basement rooms of the chemistry building. It was installed sometime ago at a cost of $1500, but that has been more than paid and the liquid air market continues to expand. Kansas now supplies all the Mississippi valley and some of the Kansas product has been seen in Boston and New York.
The market price of liquid air in Kansas is $100 a flask or almost $10 per pound. Most of the product is sold to lecturers and demonstrators although neighboring educational institutions buy some.
In making the air a pressure of 1500 pounds to the square inch and a temperature of 310 degrees Fahrenheit below zero is required to liquify the air. It passes through four cylinders, the pressure being increased each time as the air becomes denser.
One of the most interesting parts of the industry is the shipping of the liquid air. The flasks in which it is placed cost $12 apiece. They consist of two flasks, one smaller than the other and placed inside of the larger one. The air between the two spaces is then exhausted. This is for the purpose of preventing heat from coming in contact with the air. Then to prevent light rays from reaching the liquid air the glass is coated over with silver. The only place the flasks can be procured are from the inventor in Germany. The flasks are not sealed as the expanding gas must have a place of escape. Leaving the flasks open makes it indeed difficult to ship them as turning the boxes on edge spills the precious liquid. Out of one shipment made of four flasks only one reached its destination safely.
The only reason assigned for the Kansas product finding such a ready market as one of the Professors said: "The raw material from which it is made is a little better on Mount Oread than elsewhere."

For a National University.
At the meeting of the National Association of State Universities held at Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which was attended by Chancellor Strong, many questions of administration of state universities were discussed. The most prominent result of the conference was a resolution for the establishment of a great national university at Washington, D.C., to be supported by Congress, for advanced graduate work and research. The vast stores of information at Washington would thus be opened to advanced scholars for study and investigation.
