yellow squids with long graceful
arms, of squids of the color of light
blue glass, of one squid with orange
bull’s eyes on its tentacles, of a black
umbrella squid named after himself,
and of a squid covered with lights,
each of which was blue, yellow, and
red. One specimen had iridescent fins
and luminous blue hieroglyphics on its
body characterizing its species.
Among the eels he pictured were black
ones with truncated tails and long
beaks, and opaque ones with huge
jaws and very slender bodies. One of
the most amazing sights at this great
depth is a fish with a light on its
tentacle and luminous mucus on its
teeth, making it appear like a Chesch-
ire cat in the dark. The chin tenta-
cles of one specimen are frequently
ten times longer than the fish itself,
making it comparable to a man with

hooks and three yellow lights at the
end. ,
With animated cartoons, Dr. Beebe
illustrated the extraordinary capacity
of the stomachs of many of the fish,
and also the phenomenal development
of what he called “stalk-eyed fish,”
in the course of whose growth their
eyes, which grow on the end of
stalks, are. broken off and drawn in
by the optic nerve and fastened on
the sides of the head.
Another cartoon showed the abil-
ity of small red shrimps existing be-

(Continued from Page One}
The company is just getting its
start—the permanent company is not
quite assembled, and they are still
feeling out their audiences for the
type of. play that will be best well-
received. It is probable that they
will do high comedy and, once they
get under way, do it quite well. In
any case the Playhouse: is near
enough to Bryn Mawr to be especial-
ly convenient for Bryn Mawr stu-
dents, and those who attend escorted
by a gentleman have the privilege
of dancing free at Pierre’s, which is
right above the theatre, afterwards.
At Wittenberg University three
blonde co-eds debated with three dark-
haired girls from the institution on
the subject that brunettes were ‘more
intelligent than blondes. The ero.
nettes won, proving their point.

ILLUSION:
This very old illusion was invented by Indian Nia Suds ae A

great magician, Robert-Houdin. At that time, ether
had just been discovered, and little was known
about it. Houdin claimed that he had discovered , 9
that this new anesthetic could make people light as
air. Ta,prove it, he caused the subject to rise into
the air and float apparently suspended. He passed a
a hoop around the body to show there were no
wires or supports, @ * ee
