BURTON WILL ACT
University Dramatic Club Announces
Interesting Program for Nov. z.

The University Dramatic club is in
a peculiar situation. It has arranged
with DR.. Burton to have him appear
in one-act play, but he has done so
on condition that he will not be adver-
tised as the feature. 49, r.
The reason DR.. Burton gives for his
desire that his taking part should not
be used as an excuse for his personal
advertisement is that he thinks the
other plays entitled to as much notice
as his own. The club has, therefore,
refrained from any advertisement that
will displease DR.. Burton. Appearing
with DR.. Burton in ssThe Man of Let
ters'' are Nathan Blackburn and Miss
Sarah Preston.
Each member of the club has ap-
peared at some time or other in one
Of the club IS productions. Among the
cast in "His Lord in Livery'' are
Sam Andrews and John Sinclair, who
made successes in "The Cricket on the
HEARTH last year. Among the WON
en- are Miss Barber and Miss Vance.
In Her Picture the leading parts
are taken by Miss Maybelle Schnei-
der and Will Simmons.s
The plays will be given at the John

LETTER BETRAYS CASHIER
Former Bank Official of Butte Sends
Cipher Note to Stenographer.

Asserting that he is being made a
scapegoat by, the men guilty Of the
transactions which resulted in the fail
ure of the Aetna bank Of Butte, Mont,
F. II. Garside, former cashier Of the
bank, who was arrested Sunday after
noon on Hennepin avenue, declares that
he will fight extradition and has re-
tanned Attorney M. A. Brady to aid
him. A sheriff from Butte is expected
in Minneapolis tomorrow and a lively
legal tilt is promised.
Garside's apprehension by Minneapo-
lis detectives was due to a cipher letter
which he wrote to Mrs. F. S. Forster,
former stenographer in the Aetna
bank, in which he asked her to meet
him in Minneapolis. The letter fell
into the hands Of the Butte police and
the local police were warned to be on
the lookout for the fugitive cashier.

Keen Sense Of Humor.

"There's nothing like a sense OF
humor," said Rear Admiral Buehler at
Atlantic City. "In a woman, in a
soldier, in a sailor, in a clerk, a sense
of humor Is a help and a blessing
through life.
"At the same time, even a sense OF
humor may exist IN excess. I, tor my
part, shouldn't care to have so great a
sense of humor as a British soldier I
once heard about.
"This soldier was ordered to be fog
ged. During the flogging he laughed
The lash was laid on all the harder,
but under the rain of blows the soldier
laughed.
"'What are you laughing at?' the
sergeant finally asked.
Why the soldier chuckled, I'm
the wrong man."

President George T. Winston.
There Is law in Germany requir-

as soldier in active military service.
The purpose of this law is to furnish
material for a great army Of national
defense. 1t would be better for Ger
many, and we'll for every country, if
there we're law requiring each citi-
zen, male or female, to spend at least
three years, between the ages OF twelve
and twenty-one, in manual labor on the
farm. If the dudes and degenerates,
the victims OF alcohol and opiates, the
weak and the nervous, those who can
not eat and those who cannot sleep,
could all In early youth have lived in
the country and worked on the farm !,
could have experienced the JOY OF
fatigue from daily labor In the open
air and sunshine, the satisfaction OF
work accomplished, the IMMIGRATION
OF natural sleep, the sweetness OF food
and drink taken only in response to
hunger and thirst, the inspiration OF
contact with mother earth, OF COM
munion with sky and stars and clouds,
Of sympathy with grass and flowers
and the hum blest creeping things, OF
knowing and loving little animals, the
friends and servants of men, OF drawing
closer to God by living closer to nature,
the world would be spared much OF
the disease, the vice, the crime and the
misery that it now endures. 1t the
human race, in its degenerate state, is
ever to be regenerated, it will be by
life in the country, and toll on the
