With the first dual meet of the year a little more only than a week off, Coach "Billy" Hunter is working his men, barest of hopes condition that for they the will event. be usual the Wesleyan track season As will dual meet with Willianms year the events will he run off on Andrus Field. A large squad of have been out practicing faithfully mild it looks as if Wesleyan will have a good team. The individual star will undoubtedly be Captain Wendell, who is one of the best hurdlers in the world. In an endeavor to train someone to take Wendell's place next year, Coach Hunter has been paying considerable attention to Ross, '15, who gives promise of developing into a good man at the jumps.
Wesleyan is particularly well fortified in the sprints with Irving and Deetjen to bear the brunt of the work, However, Clark, '13; Ross, '15; Freifeld, '15, and Dingwell, '16, have been doing work and may be counted upexcellent, some points before the season closes. Deetjen is sprinter of unusual ability and it is expected that his running will be one of the features of the team's work. The quarterWood, '15, of last winter's milers are abovemthe average with star relay team, showing the best form. Halvorson, '14, and Van Voris, '16, are two other men who can be depended upon in this event. Van Voris is one of the star track men of his class and he is particularly good in the half-mile run.
In this event he will probably be Wesleyan's mainstay. Cashman, '15, has developed wonderfully in the past year and it looks as though he and Harriss, '13, outlet to do some excellent work in the run. Stark, '16, has been improving rapidly and will undoubtedly score some points for the Cardinal and Black in the same event. Rudkin, '14, and Cashman will run the two-mile race. In the weight events Wesleyan will be strong with Parkinson, '13, the holder of the college record in the shot put, still available.
He is also the best man at hurling the discus, although there are several others who have lately shown much skill in this event. Bernhard, '13, who for three years has been a consistent winner of places in the hammer throw, is tossing the weight further than ever. In the Jumps Wesleyan has Ellis, '15; Newhall, '15, and Ferris, '15, and these men are sure to pick up a few points between them. The pole vault seems to the weakest spot in the program. However, taking everything consideration, Wesleyan ought to have a well balanced team.
The Williams meet comes May 3, Brown at Providence May 10, and Trinity at Hartford, May 17. The following Saturday the New England championships will be held at Cambridge and the 1. C. A. A.

BLUE BIRD TYPIFIES ONLY DIVINE TRUTH So Saga Miss Butler of Maeterlinck's Great Play. "Divine truth" rather than hai ness' was declared to be typified oy the Blue Bird, Maurice Maeterlinck' play by that name, by Miss Alice Butler who has the part of fairy in production, at a conference of the then Drama League of Hartford held at the Parsons Theater yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock.
Miss Butler was the last of three speakers who dealt wtih different phases of the general topic, "Maeterlinck and 'The Blue ness is the result of the search for truth," she said, "but truth is mary object. Imagination is the one quality requisite for enjoying such a play, and the mind must be in the frame of the little boy who goes to seek the Blue Bird, to get the most out of it. One gets, from 'The Blue Bird' just what one puts into it." Rene Cheruy was the first speaker of the afternoon, and he considered Maeterlinck from a French point of view. Professor Cheruy said that the dramatist began with German ideas of mysticism and gloom, and developed his philosophy into that of the Roman stoic, until he has become nearest among the modern writers the Roman philosopher, Marcus Aurelius, and is at the same time largely imbued with the ideas of Carlyle and Emerson. He has effected a revolution in French literature, and is a leader of the new schools of thought in France, but not SO favorably regarded by the older school of writers representing the French Academy, Professor declared Blue Bird" to be Maeter.
link's greatest work and representative of his ripest philosophy. was Professor Cheruy's first speech" in thei English language. Charles Hampden, stage director the company from at the Parsons, spoke of the play the stage manager's point of view, He said that the play had been refused by every manager in Europe for two years on account of the difficult stage-settings required, but the requirements were finally modified and "The Blue Bird" was produced. Mr. Hampden entertained with some comic experiences which he had met as stage manager of the play incident to its presentation in various cities.
and Miss Butler was the final speaker, she described the play from the actor's viewpoint. She said that she has appeared in "The Blue Bird" over 400 times, and each time she finds some new thought in the lines. The theater was about half filled with members of the Drama League and their friends for the conference, the success of which was largely due to the efforts of Miss Annie Eliot Trumbull. who arranged it and obtained the co-operation of the speakers.

(Special to The Courant.) BRISTOL, Wednesday, April 23. The police department wants a Delice benefit fund established by the city government the same as obtains in about all the cities of this and other states, and a petition signed by all the members of the department, headed by the chief, has been presented the city authorities. The petition asks for the calling of a special meeting of the council to take the matter up. The plan is to have a fund establish- lished which will probably not be drawn on in five years or thereabous, which would provide for benefits to an officer of the department who is injured while doing his duty as an officer. The way the fund is worked out in other cities is to appropriate 5 per cent.
of all license money received by the city for this purpose: also rewards, etc. If an officer is injured and put out of business at present it is optional with the council to pay him for off time, but under the new plan he would draw a direct benefit from the city under regular provisions. The whole proposition is founded on Section 124 of the Con- necticut General Statutes. Cupid Is Busy.

(Special to The Courant.) Middletown, April 22. The approach of Junior Week at Wesleyan has brought with it an unusual interest in the annual dramatics. In past years the "Dramatic Club" has started off the festivities with the presentation of some sort of a light comedy. This year the Junior Class thought that some recognition should be taken of the fact that the week is essentially a "Junior Week" and has decided to start things off with a comic opera written by members of the Junior Class.
In order that more interest might be taken in the affair than has been taken in former years a system of upto-date advertising was decided upon by Manager Robinson and the students who have possessed the necessary pecuniary substance to use the trolley cars have amused themselves by reading about the great "Junior Show," May 9, 1913. Last night, however, the management decided that the world should know something a. little more definite about the show and the title, the writers and some of actors were announced. "Who's Got Winifred?" is the subject of the play and from the noises that issue from the rehearsals which are held behind locked doors the thing must be a scream, So far only the names of the men in the ballet chorus have been given out. The music has been written by A.

A New Face Without Surgical Skin Peeling "I do not approve of the surgical operation of face peeling." says Julia Orff.
"It's too radical. too often dangerous. There's a better way of removing offensive complexions and one that is entirely safe' and rational. Ordinary mercolized wax causes the devitalized scarf skin to come off, but gradually and gently. Unlike the surgical process.
the skin is not forcibly taken off in big pieces all at once, but almost invisible flaky particles are absorbed by the wax, and from ten days to two weeks are required to complete the transformation. There's no pain, no discomfort. "Nature renews complexions the same way, shedding tiny cutaneous scales day by day. But deficient circulation, or other abnormal condition. may interfere with the shedding--a bad complexion results.
Then mercolized wax assists Nature by hastening, the discolored removal top of skin. the Thus aged, only faded the lively, young. healthy-hued skin is in I evidence as in robust girlhood. This is why mercolized wax produces the indescribable beauty of ever-renewing youth. The wax is put on at night like cold cream, and washed off in the morning.
You can procure it at any druggist's; an ounce is sufficient.".
