Flowery announcements and fulsome
promises are so frequently followed By
mediocre performances that theatrical
claims are now usually accepted with
the provmbial grain of salt. yet
sometimes one will find every repre-
sentation so thoroughly hOnored that
one begins to appreciate the value OF
the trade mark OF reputable substan-
tial management. Thus it is when
Nixon g. Zimmerman's names appear
as sponsors for the attraction. for they
value and guard their reputation and
words as carefully as the most relia-
BILE commercial firm and when their
names appear in connection with pro-
duction It may bo accepted as a fore
gone conclusion that 1t Is of the very

Game NOt 40 NaM Here

News from London about the Ping
Pong" craze in smart society set is
somewhat of a surprise to young men
and women on this side Of the water.
Under the name of table tennis the
game has been popular for two years.
But the manufacturers who make the
miniature racquets. nets and balls for
this market cannot call it "Ping-Pong. "
The name is prohibited out Of British
domain. But the game is the same,
and the parlor set costs from s. 10 81,
as against SS TO $40 in London.
The idea was first brought over by
some Philadelphians who were in Eng
land last summer. IL was all the rage
there then. but now the game has de-
veloped into social fad of over
whelming dimensions. II is played
everywhere in Peekham, Piccadilly
and Park Lane. An association has
been formed to make rules and ar
range championship games. A six-day
tournament Of a popular nature has
Just closed at the Royal Aquarium
that was witnessed by upwards of TO-
600 persons. Themore exclusive society
had a select competition in Queen e
Hall. at which a large sum was raised
for charity. One tournament there
lasted eighty-seven strokes.
When books are published giving
the minor rules Of the game which
differs somewhat from outdoor tennis,
the sport threatens to take as firm a
hold on the general public as did the
now almost extinct croquet.

World Is Sweet and Fair

The world is sweet. the world is fair,
To earnest workers all;
Its mornings dawn in beauty rare,
It's evenings tranquil fam
Or high or low in its degree,
The task our souls must share;
II but its noble aim we see,
The world is sweet and fair.
The world is fresh. the world is new,
To those that work therein;
It seems but to the idle few
All stale and old with sin,
The blessed ones of labor's clan
Working with purpose true,
They find the world in Gods good

the pronounced musical hits In years.
It's story Is original and highly inter-

Pertaining. The lyrics are admirable
and have not been eQualled since Gill

tuneful numbers with light jingly airs,
and many graceful dances are intro
duced. The story of the comedy is
woven around the fact that the EN-

diocese of New Jersey.

More than 200 clergymen affiliated
with Episcopal churches in the diocese
of New Jersey were in attendance on
Tuesday at the 18th annual diocesan
convention, which was held in st. Mich
calls Church, Trenton. The principal
feature of the after dinner session was
an address by Bishop Scarborough. His
remarks touched on the present condi-
ton of the diocese and it's gratifyingly
bright prospects. He complimented the
visiting delegates on their large num-
bers and evident interest in their avoca-
ton
Bishop Scarborough dwelt at length
on the question of divorce. He vigor-
ously upheld the action of TIE San Fran
cisco convention aud believed that much
instruction should be given in relation
to the sacredness of the marriage tie and
its indissolubility.
He condemned the growing practice of
women appearing in publ without
hats. This was noticed frequently at
the seaside resorts and in some churches.
