BUTLER OPENING SIGN FOR ROUND OF FESTIVITIES 4 Frats * Outline Programs to Keep Freshmen on Jump. With the opening < f Butler College comes a round of festivities. The fresh naan's first impression of his college days will be one wild melee of hilarity. The college organizations will entertain with get-together receptions and the Greek letter folk are of course prepared to out shine all competitive frats with their •Vents. Studies, professors and classes during the first few days of school are of little importance, teas, dances, stunts, dinners, suppers, open houses, all mast be attended and then if there is time, classes can be given the ouce-over. Even matriculation, Tuesday, which doesn't sound particularly exciting, takes on a glamour whey parties of smartly trucked young women gather in the halls to greet the bewildered newcomer. Local freshmen whose fame has gone before them undoubtedly will be is corted from tfceir residences in motor cars by parties o’, friendly upper class men, and the intricacies of registra tion will be all explained by the old ex perienced hands. College freshmen are tenderly handled for the first few days. They are im prassed at all hours of the day that there is nothing for (hem to do, but allow the older fraternity folk to smooth the path way of learning for them. The thing for them to do is to have one grand good and they generally have it. It might be well to remind the unwary freshman of "gather ye rosebuds while ye Hay” for after the pledge day—the upper class frat folk have their innings and the lowly green-capped one is put through "a course of sprouts,” of a dis tinctly low-brow variety, such as scrub bing chapterhouse floors, windows, etc., or perchance waiting tables, or washing dishes for “frat” festivities. Among the "fx-at” festivities scheduled are the formal dinner at the University Club Monday evening by Kappa Alpha Theta alumnae, the Delta Delta Delta party Monday evening at the home of Miss Helen Barry. The Kappa Kappa Gamma dance at the Spink Anns. Mon day. De.’ta Tau Delta Is holding open house at *he chapter rouse on Ritter avenue this evening and Zeta Tau Alpha entertained today with a luncheon at the Spink Arms followed by a theater party at tho Murat. j PUSS IN EOOTS JR. | '■ ' 1 By David Cory "Yon can't cross this bridge, little Sir Kitten,” said the old woman who kept the toll bridge I mentioned in the last story. "And pray, why not?" asked Fuss "I have money enough for toll, and I ; must continue my journey.” “Hoity toity!” laughed the little old woman. "Would you meet a wild boar?” i "No. indeed,” answered Puss. "But i why did you not say that at first.” I And just then, all of a sudden, they (heard a great noise on the bridge, and would you believe it? that dreadful wild boar was coming toward them at a run. ‘Mercy me!" cried the little old woman, and she jumped inside her little wooden house and looked the door. It was only a tiny little house, you know, like those little houses you see at railroad cross ings where the flagman stays between trains. “Weil, as soon as the Good Gray Horse caught sight of the wild board he turned around and gai loped away, so Puss clung tightly to his back and pretty soon they left the wild boar far behind —that is, they thought they had, but. Oh, dear me! While the Good Gray Horse was trotting along quietly, Puss happened to look over on his right, and there was that dreadful wild beast com- \ ing at them again. And this time he ■ was so near that the Good Gray Horse had no chance to get away. "What shall we (10, little master?” he asked. And then Puss thought of his Magic Ring which the Queen of the Fairies had given him, oh, maybe two hundred stories ago. and be turned it around his little toe three times, and ail of a sudden, just like that, the Little Black Man stood before him. But when he saw tlie wild boar rushing at them, he knelt down on one knee and held his long sharp spear in front of him. And the boar was going so fast that he couldn't stop, and so he ran right on to the spear and killed himself. “You came just in time,” said Puss with a grin, although he was dreadfully frightened, I guess, just the same. “My Queen was only yesterday asking if I had seen you," said the Little Black Man. “Where is the Fairy Queen?” asked Puss. “She is holding court not far from *here?” said the Little Black Man, point ing to a wood nearby. “My Good Gray Horse and I will make her a visit,” said Puss, and then the Little Black Man disappeared, and Puss rode over toward the wood, and by and by, after he had ridden through the trees for some distance, he heard a tiny voice say: “Oh, where are you going, my little Sir Cat? With your rod top boots and your fia* plumed hat? Your Good Gray Horse needs rest, I know, So wait while the fairy whistles blow.” And then Puss heard the fairy whis tles. They sounded like the notes of a canary bird, only maybe sweeter, and in the next story you shall hear what happened after that.—Copyright, 1321. (To Be Continued.)

The field of musical comedy composi tion is being profitably tiled by famous violinists of the day. A short time ago Fritz Kre'sler's "Apple Blossoms" was given here, and ntnv Efrem Zimballst's ‘‘Honeydew” u ill be presented at the Shubert-Murat on Monday, Sept. 2Gth for one week. The ninslc of "Honeydew” Is no less mustclanly than that of 'Apple Blos soms,” but It makes a qqulcker and surer appeal to popular taste. Zimbalist, unlike many composers, seems conscious of the fact that good music Is not neces sarily lacking in melody and rhythm that can be enjoyed by the masses. He has dared to assume that tho theater going public has a soul above jazz, and has written light, graceful; tuneful inus'c of distinctive charm that will delight the uneducated and not offend the edu cated There arc ditties that may be d-s ---lgnated •>> "catchy" ami whlstloable.'' The instrumentation, Is richly colorful, without excessive elaboration. There are striking effects in the ensembles, es pecially in the Chinese Phantasy. Alto gether the score is far removed from the. conventional. While the book Is of less distinction than the score. Joseph W. Herbert has written something better than his average, both In dialog and lvrlcs it Is said. The lyrics are notable for brightness of wit, especially those of “My Hus band's Dearest Friend,” Fnrequitted Love” ami "it's A Small, Small World.” But it is the music, the beauty of the settings and the general excellence of the company that will make “Honeydew one of the memorable productions of the season it is predicted. ! The dresses of the Chinese numbers are stunningly magnificent and the blnck and white creations of the bathing bailer are effective. The oast includes F.thelind Terry Dorothy Kellis, John Goldsworthy, John Park, Gerald Griffin, Mndalen Orev, Marie Hall. Jerome Dalev. Cansino Broth ers Papeta, and Fred Munatt.

With the house quarantined and all communication shut off from outsldo Mrs. Hooper had to do her marketing by telephone for the first time in her house keeping experience. By arranging to have everything left outside, it was pos sible for all the shopkeepers to make de liveries. The housekeeping supplies for the week wero about the same as usual, as with Henry away, the coming of the nurse made no extra person for meals, and very much less moat was necessary than when Henry was at home. No extra food had yet to be provided for Betty, who was taking only a little milk In the way of nourishment. The meal for the nurse was served on a tray and sent to the sick room with no more extra work than if sbe pubic to the table, and nothing extra had to bo prepared for her. Roger had suggested painting the kitchen floor to put in the time while he had to be home from school, but Mrs. Hooper was so afraid that the smell of it might penetrate to Betty's sick room that she refused to let him do it until some time inter and urged him to devote ns much time as possible to the garden. Grapes were beginning to cover the vines over the arbor and besides having all sho needed for jelly, Mrs. Hooper planned that they would be plenty to bottle a supply of grape Juice, that she could use alternately with orange Juice in the morning during the coming winter. The garden continued to yield enough vege tables for the table, and there were still a few cantaloupes nnd watermelons on the vinos—but another week would see everything used up for the year.

MUSCLE SHOALS SETTLEMENT IS DUE IN FEW DAYS Chances for Ford Grow as Of ficials Doubt RivaFs Backing. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.—Negotiations within the next week or ten days will bring a settlement of the proposition to turn the nitrate plant at Musr.e Shoals, Ala., over to private interests, in the opinion of officials of the War Depart ment who are considering the offers that have been made. Engineers retained by Henry Ford, who was the first to make an offer for the plant, are to be in Washington Mon day for a conference with John W. Weeks, Secretary of War, and Gen. Lansing M. Beach, chief of engineers. The engineers have been sent by Mr. Ford in response to an invitation from Mr. Weeks in which he asked that Mr. Ford or hU representatives come hera so that the questions over which the War Department is still in doubt might be thrashed out. No decision will be reached until after this conference as to the necessity of Mr. Ford personally coming to Washington. The War Department has made public the terms of the offer received from C. E. James of Chattanooga. It provides for an original payment of $5,(100,000 and for the payment of amounts ranging from $1 per horse power the first year to $6.50 per horse power for the ninth year and thereafter over a ninety-seven-year period. All taxes under the James proposal would be paid by the Government, and it is suggested in addition that the Gov ernment complete the dams so as to make possible the development of SOO.OOO horse power. Neither of the bidders have yet. In the opinion of War Department officials demonstrated sufficient willingness to supply the necessary capital for develop ment work. Mr. Ford in his offer said he would be willing to spend an addition al $12,000,000 for this purpose but It was stated at the Department that this would not be nearly enough. Officials were inclined to doubt that Mr. I James had sufficient backing to under take any of the work necessary before a ' private corporation could handle the project adequately.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.
