The Studebaker has had an interesting part in the history of Chicago theatricals since the start of the century. It' was there that Henry W. Savage proved that opera in English could be made to pay;--and he proved it through a number of years. 'Twas -- there he staged George Ade's first play, "The Sultan of Sulu," and put that popular American humorist into the list of successful men of the theater. "Abie's Irish Rose" ran in the Studebaker more than a year. E. H. Sothern • made his fina>- Chicago appearance there as ai^ ictor, in "Tlje Advocate," and as a lecturer. And the Theater Guild of New York, in 1927, "made in the Studebaker its first attempt to establish its subscription system , for repertoire outside New York. Samuel Insull leased the theater in 1926 for Mrs. Insull, returning to the stage after twenty-fiye years' absence, and was its last lessee until Mr. Geddes came in for "Dead End."

Lost Koran Manuscript Found in Shop in Cairo Jerusalem.--The four-year-old mystery of the disappearance from the museum of the Mosque El Aksa of a Koran manuscript of the Middle ages was solved when It was found in the shop of a Cairo antiquity dealer, to whom the document had been sold for £50.. The Koran was part of a collection of 25 manuscript volumes which were considered priceless because they had been written by the Moorish Sultan Abdul Hussein Merlni ln the Thirteenth century. In the same style as the ancient Roman Korean found in the Mosque of Cordova, the manuscript was treasured because of its remarkable decorations. It was written 605 years ago on Gazelle parchment,' luxuriously Illustrated, bound in gold and embossed on both sides in silver... ; Magna Charta in Latin The Magna Charta was written Latin. It was addressed "To the archbishops, abbots, earls, barons, justiciars, foresters, sheriffs governors, officers and to all bail liflts and his faithful subjects."

D. Culkin of Oswego, New York, assistant director of the farm division of the Republican National committee. • "In the past 20 years, the government and the farmers of America have spent rpore than $500,000,000 to protect the public health and obtain dairy products free from dirt and disease," said Congressman Culkin. "Under the present reciprocal trade agreements made by Secretary Hull and President Roosevelt, all this disbursement is thrown to the winds because the Hull treaties make no provisions as to quarantine and sanitary regulations and the protection of milk products at their source, in foreign countries Furthermore, the present treaties bind the United States not to make any further changes in the quarantine provisions of our own country during the life of the treaties." 62,894 Out of Jobs. Chicago.--Economists here estimated that 62,894 rural persons were denied the opportunity for sell support by imports of cattle, beef and veal under the New Deal during 1935. t By FRANK RIDGWAY ; •More than 800,000 cattle have been killed and added to the New Dealers' animal "death list," along with little pigs and expectant mother-sows slaughtered near the beginning of the Roosevelt administration's "three long years." These cattle killing . activities have been carried on in connection with the administration's Bang's disease campaign conducted in 48 states during the last two years. Meat and milk production, has been reduced aftd more and more imports of >cattle, beef, and dairy products are coming iri from foreign countries as a result. In the meantime Bang's disease runs rampant in the farmers' dairy and beef herds. ; ' Disgruntled farmers favor, calling a halt on the test. They have become dissatisfied with the program. But their cattle still are being "mowed down" as fast as federal government men can make their tests to sort out the diseased cattle and send them to slaughter. Bothered by Dreams. Apparently men who are trying to run the farms of America by jerking puppet strings radiating out from Washington, still are working on the idea that there are too many cattle in the United States. Farmers and ranchmen are ahxious to get rid of catile infected with Bang's disease, which causes the loss of calves in both dairy and beef herds and undulant fever in human beings. But after having 10,000,000 tests made on their animals, they have become skeptical. They doubt the accuracy and value of the test. . Farmers and £Jew Deal planners alike apparently thought the program had merit when it was started. The idea of government aid in getting rid of infected animals seemed sound. Experience soon proved that the planners had entirely overlooked the fact that the test for Bang's disease had not been standardized and perfected to the point where it could be depended upon to give satisfactory results when applied under various conditions on a national scale. Some farmers had taken both the test and the sound judgment of the Washington officials pretty much for granted. They have now found to their sorrow that neither of their assumptions were justified. Farmers/ Now Dissatisfied. For many months dissatisfaction has spread among farmers throughout the country. Through their breeders' organizations dairy and beef cattle owners decided to make an investigation and go to the bottom of the Bang's campaign fostered by politicians at Washington. About 200 of the cattlemen's representatives recently met in Springfield, Illinois, where they aired the whole cattle killing program. They found out that from the beginning the New Dealers apparently had used the Bang's disease test as an excuse to slaughter more of their cattle. Farmers now realize that they have been paying a high price to aid political theorists in planning their revolutionary agricultural reduction scheme. Nearly 700,000 herds of beef and dairy animals have been submitted for test since July 1, 1934. Some of the farmers have lost many of their most valuable animals. In one southern Wisconsin dairy herd of 859 cattle all of them were found to be diseased excepting 130. }*-. .wm : tfhurKiay, September, 3,1936 1 Cap* Hatter*! Cape Hatteras Is a low extent of land on the North Carolina coast, forming a part of a sandbank. Here the coastline turns from northeast to due north and severe storms are fre-, quent; so are shipwrecks. The first Hatterais lighthouse was built during John Adams' administration. This first (structure of sandstone, 112 feet high, was con^pleted ln 1798. It was located more than a mile from the shore, but the Atlantic kept eroding and eating away the sandy hook that forms the dangerous cape until the old tower had to be abandoned in 1870. - RINGWOOD Effect of Time Soviet Russia shows its hatred for the former czars through ttye altered Inscription on the statue of Alexander III (1845-1894) in the Square of the Revolution in Leningrad.
