EXCUSE ME-"

From the standpoint of amusement
the comedy Excuse Me- presented
by the Sigma Tau fraternity of tne
university at the high school audl-
torium on Friday evening, was a con-
spicuous success. A very light ana
entertaining comedy of an unusai
type, the play was at the same time
very heavy one from the actor
point of view, especially for amateurs
hut the boys of the fraternity took
hold of the situation in a master1ui
way and the result was pleasing.
From the time that the curtain

the rousing redition of the fraternity
songs at the conclusion, the pure fun
of the many ridiculous situations
continually tickled the audience. The
evanescent quality that goes by the
name of stage presence" was pres
ent in a remarkable degree for anna
tours, if anything, Il little too much
assurance on the part of the actors
leading to a loose and careless hand
ling of good situations in places
where the audience was entitled to
see the best efforts of the actors put
forth.
The half dozen parts representing
female characters, were played By
boys, were all well DONE Their cos
tuning and makeup was splendid,
as were indeed the costume and seen
ic effects Of the show in general. An
unusually elaborate set of scenery
representing the interior of a Pullman
car. with seats. smoking room, and
| full accoutrements, was built by the
| boys for the occasion. The illusion
OF the interior of a train was skill
fully carried out.
Musical specialties by Robert Sc
well and the Sigma Tau quartet were
Thoroughly enjoyed, and the audience
wished for more. A ten-piece or
chestra under the direction of e.
STANLEY Seder, of the fraternity, was
also thoroughly appreciated.
Taken as a whole, the handing or
this difficult Henry w. Savage pro
duction reflected great credit on the
local boys, and Elwood Albright. who
directed the piece, is to be consrat-
ulated on his ability in handling am

federal aid money, and plus such
further fund as might be realized
from those sources which benefit par
ticularly by such system; that all of
this money be used for this definite
system of highways that will start
somewhere and end up somewhere.
The automobile license money in
Iowa will amount to approximately
S10,000,000 within the next five years.
Uncle Sam offers to give $2,200,0oO.
If the counties would appropriate in
proportion to the mileage of this state
highway system which goes through
their territory in an amount aggre-
eating $2,20O,000 and those who re
ceive the greatest benefit from the
system would come in with another
S2,2OO,O00, we would have a grand
total of S16,6O000 to be used for this
definite system of roads. Taxes would
not be increased at all because the
counties share would come out of the
present county road fund.
Such an amount of money would
give US a great many miles of stan
dard gravel surface highways. The
plan as above outlined, however, is
not being advocated by the Greater
Iowa association, but is being pre-
scented to the people of Iowa for dis
cussion. 1t is the consensus of opinion
of great many members of the
association who have written in to
the associations headquarters.

SUGGEST PLANS

Government Aid to Roads is Attract
ing Attention of Many People
In This State.

The s2,2o0,000 which the United
States government has agreed to pre-
sent to Iowa for road building-under
certain conditions-already has been
of great benefit to Iowa, although
not single penny of the money has
been received. Members of the Great
er Iowa association have been writ
ing in from all parts of the state,
making suggestions as to the best
method of utilizing this federal aid.
The discussion has also brought out
many thoughts with reference to the
future utilization or distribution of
the automobile license fund-and
these latter suggestions have come
altogether from those who own auto
mobiles and who are paying the auto
mobile tax.
The idea seems to be spreading all
over Iowa that the state highway de-
partment should at once work out a
system of highways that would con-
meet up all of the main market CEN
tiers of the state, and that all of the
automobile license fund plus the
