Colonel Lake, the Canadian quarter
master general, has arrived in London
in connection with the plans 10
strengthen the Canadian military de-
lenses. He has since his arrival here
been in constant communication with
the Canadian office and the details OF
his mission are, naturally, kept Sc

Tested in theatrical and musical circles
here during the past week in the de-
velOpments in the suit of Ella Russell,
the singer, against Percy NOtcutt. the
concert manager. Miss Russell asked
for substantial damages from M Not
cult for placing her name in the con-
cert advertisements and on the pro-
gram between the names OF persons she
considered to be artists and singers in
feriOr in rank and skill to herself. in
stead Of placing il at the head of the
list of artists, as, Miss Russell claimed,
her position in the operate world de-
manded. Miss Russell insisted that
the treatment she was thus subjected
10 was calculated 20 do her considerable
injury and thar, consequently. suitable
compensation was due her. More than
ordinary interest was caused by this
suit. as ii has been asserted that some
managers have been in the habit Of
'disciplining" the unruly stars and
others by such tactics and that they
ola so with impunity, owing TO the diff
ficulty a complainant would have in
proving TO the satisfaction of jury
that damage had been sustained. Sew
eral well known managers were called
upon to furnish testimony in the case
of Russell VS.. Notcutt," and they We're
practically unanimous in sta ting that
the treatment Miss Russell complained
of was certainly calculated to injure
her position as a singer and as result
the jury awarded her $500 damages
which, considering the free advertising
which went with il, is considered in
theatrical circles to be quite a victory
for Miss Russell
