Worts "PRIVATE LIVES A OOWARD COMEDY, HOW AT ERLANGE* "Noel Coward's riotous and sophisticated farce-comedy "Private £»ives," now playing at the Erlanger theatre, Chicago, for a limited engagement, brings together again on the legitimate stage a celebrated, glamorous team--Ruth Chatterton, long a distinguished star of the stage and one of the first ladies of the screen, and her former husband and co-star,| Ralph Forbes. "Private Lives," which has rightfully been termed Coward's most fascinating, entertaining and adult comedy, bristling with epigrams and brilliant dialogue, deals with two people who were married, divorced, both marry again and met the 'nfght of their respective second honeymoons, then run away together, leaving their new spouses stranded. The story strikingly parallels the private lives of Miss Chatterton and Mr. Forbes, who were once married to each other, divorced and each mar. ried again--to George Brent and Heather Angel--divorced a second time and now playing together again. The romance-hungry in the audience should experience a double delight-- to watch with keenest interest Mr. Cowards' skillful dissection of the two lives so badly tangled by a LIFE or SIBELIUS GIVEN BY STUDENT 07 THEORY OF MUSIC In the Theory of Music clasa at the local high school, a recent assignment of the class was to select some composer and give his life story and accomplishments which made him famous. Charlene Krohn chose as her subject, Jean Sibelius, and her complete story was as follows: Sibelius, Jean--1865-- Born--Travastehus, Finland Contemporary--Theodore Roosevelt Early Life--Played piano, improvised and wrote simple compositions. At fifteen, began violin study with a local bandmaster. Played in school orchestra and in chamber music groups. Was entered as law student at the University of Helsingfar. Gave up law and went to Beriin for further study, then to Vienna, where he was a pupil of Carl Goldmark, Robert Fuchs, and others. First Finnish composer of significance. Soon recognized as genius of remarkable originality and powef. Work--Seven symphonies, five quartets, a trio, fifty striking songs, a piano sonata, 'Kalevala,' (orchestra), 'Pohnjolas Daughter,' 'The Swan of Tuonela,' 'Korelia,' 'Tapiola,' 'Fruhingslied,' 'I^mminkainen's Coming,' 'The Dryads,' 'Pelleas Und Melisaende,' 'Night Rjde and Sunrise,' 'Pan Croak Notes,' lfTW^|r| $as a special appeal to me.

This is 6 cents per hundredweight less that the January Mended price and is 35 cents per hundredweight more than the blended price which producers received for February 1942 deliveries. Computation of the Mended price under the Chicago federal milk marketing order is based upon the prices which handlers (dealers) pay for their milk supplies according to utilization in four different classifications.
