THE PRODUCTION
OF SANITARY milk


In circular 81, issued by the Massa-
chusetts state board of agriculture,
Charles North suggests the grading
of milk as substitute for dairy in
spection, says Hoards Dairyman. Ia
other words, his plan is to determine
whether Or not milk is sanitary by its
bacterial content rather than by the
conditions under which it is produced
OF course, in order to have milk of low
bacterial content it is necessary for the
farmers and dairymen to adopt sani-
tary methods, but expensive equip
ment is not necessity for such pro-
duction.
The plan suggested In the above
mentioned circular is to grade the

Young Lawyer Has \
Article in Issue of
Harvard Review

Apan Raymond, one OF the younger
members of the Omaha bar, is the
author of one of the leading articles
in the December issue of the Harvard
Law Review. entitled, "Suretyship at
Law Merchant.
In this article Mr. Raymond dis
cusses recent reports of the Confer
ence of Commissioners on Uniform
State Laws, which drafted the uniform
negotiable instruments act, and whose
reports show tendency to elimina-
ton of suretyship doctrines from the
claw merchant" By tracing the his
tory of the "law merchant" he shows
that there is nothing in its relation
to the other portions Of the English
and American legal system to deny
suretyship a place in it and that doc
trines of suretyship have been incor-
porated into it, by analogy, from
equity.
The article then goes into the eff
feet of the uniform law upon this
phase of the law merchant" with
especial reference to accommodation
paper and the status OF accommoda-
ton parties under the old law and
the new.

Reeves Beauty Show
Up-to-Date Wins It's
First Night Crowd

Beauty and brains, seasoned with
much pepper and served with spark
ling comedy of the vintage of 1917,
is the recipe for the very pleasing
vaudeville dish served at the Gayety
Saturday night under the direction
of Al Reeves. 1t is AIS famous beauty
show, rejuvenated, and it scored with
the irst-night audience.
In addition to the perennial posing
of models, the lure of the playlet is
enhanced by the splendor of the cos
tunes worn by the girls. In the first
scene, fashion parlor, the latest die
tates of style, all of rich quality ma
tcrial, form a grand revue. 1t is good
to look at. Charles Robels and All
Green are the chief mirth makers, and
merit entities each to his job.
Specially numbers are frequent and
fine. There is Francis Murphy, a
comely young singer, whose flirting
makes nervous the men in the lower
box-until Francis thunders at them
in base voice and takes off his wom-
EMS wig. Miss Eddy and Mr.. Earle
do some lightning stepping in their
dervsh-like dancing numbers. Then
there's Harry Poynton and Frank
Green, two of the best tumblers that
have worked at the play house this
season. They earn and get a volley
Of applause.

tertains with his deft fingers and

Der is The Old Minstrel Mans Song"
Leona Miffer, who braves the calcium
lights without makeup, is beauty, a
singer and dancer. She works her
triune charm in getting across New
Orleans" and several other numbers.
A captivating duet is Bernice Ia
Der and Edna Claire, whose dialect
songs and dancing win complete ia
vor. The gowns worn all during the
show by these two winsome misses
are things of beauty. A quartet. COM
posed of Robels, Green, Sulback and
Miss Miller entertains with better
than-ordinary singing. Then Al
Reeves, not to be denied place on
the program, gives mcnologue,
which the whole audience welcomed
