Juttsen B. New York, May 4—The club women of the United States are about to lock the door. By United Press Leased Wire To the Editorial Week visitors—Don't forget your family at home. Take them a box of Wiedemann's candies. —Adv. In the battle array it will be New York against the rest of the nation—for New York club women have in mind that they do not know how to dress. The word went out in the last issue of the magazine of the General Federation of Women's Clubs. Miss Mary A Peek, "at New York," wrote how to dress. The first signs of revolt came from Indiana but now women from San Francisco to New Jersey and from Canada to the gulf are reported to have taken decided exception on Friday. The exception, "Big Town" on clothes for the coming federation convention. It will be a finish bait, unless the New Yorkers retire, as they have indications of doing today. The leading club women would not be quoted. Under the caption; "Correct Dress Under the Coming Biennial"; Miss Peek ward. "Many delegates do not know that New York women wear only strictly tailored suits, on the streets or at business and little or no jewelry. Their suits are usually black in color. Women of the southland who choose light colors for their spring suits may wear their winter ones, since New York is always cool. These with good skin and comfortable shoes will love them ready to enjoy and get inspiration from the May biennial. It is also advisable to select small hats. Well dressed women avoid the larger ones." THESTUFF OF LAUGHTER Written by Shostac, Music By Nevin Given at the May Eote Fete "The Stuff of Laughter," a dramatic fantasy in verse by Percy B. Shostac of the department of English, will be presented at the varsity as a part of their annual May celebration on the evenings of May 12, 13 and 15. As a setting for the play, Prof. Arthur Nevin of the dean of the College will complete score of incidental music. The performance will be unique in the history of dramatics in more than one way. Seldom is the author of a play and the composer of its incidental music, both seen taking part in their production. Ye Percy Shaston played Mr. Warner in the parts and Prof. Arthur Nevin will conduct the orchestra. "The Stuff of Laughter" is a new form of drama. The Russian Ballet was a synthesis of dancing, music, design and lighting effects. By adding intense dramatic action to the ballet, it still maintains its dramatic and artistic unity, this play goes one step farther than the Russian Ballet. The play is divided into two main parts, preceded by a prologue and followed by an epilogue. The prologue consists of an invitation by the Spirit of the Stage to witness the play. The first part of the play is in the court of the King of Jealousy bringing the foolishness of allways allwarness, bitterness, unrelenting cruelty of the time as well as the strange and tragic wistfulness of the north. The action is gripping in its terrible cruelty and melodrama. H. C. Sticher Appeals to Editors to Back Plan LAUDS CENTRAL BUREAU H. C. Sticher, Sec'y Central Advertising Bureau.
