has such care been taken to put a
company on the road with more com
Ieteness, that that exercised by the
managers of Toyland. Especial at
tention has been taken In selecting
the chorus, While it Is not necessary
in the usual run Of companies to have
chorus people absolutely perfect in
voice, this is one of the main reasons
why Toyland is success; what Is
considered a good principal In the or

requisite of the chorus in this com,

CHANGE IN PLANS
FOR |NTERURBAN
MADE NECESSARY BY REFUSAL
OF PROPERTY OWNERS TO
sign NEW PETlTloN-RoAo
WILL BE BUILT.

D. II. Sawyer. OF the Illinois Trac.
ton Co. was in the city yesterday
and from what he said it appears that
the Interurban project has met with
temporary setback In the refusal
of some citizens owning property
along the proposed right-of-way to
sign the eompany's new petition. The
company will be compelled. because
of this, to change its plans somewhat;
but NJ rSawyer does aot despair. He
says the company will move its term
inal farther south. to point short
distance above the subway. instead
of at the city limits. This will make
a less frontage necessary in petition.
Private right-of-way will be secured
north of the subway
It is expected to have new petit
ton before the city council at the
second meeting in September and no
trouble is anticipated in getting IA
vorable action.
