THE GREAT AMERICAN PLAY,

On the stage of the Willis Wood on
the night of Oct. II, will be given
Wagenthals and Kemper's great play
of present day life in America, by
Eugene Walter, paid in Full"
Breathing strength in every line this
play is so unquestionably out OF the
ordinary that it seems safe to predict
a most roseate future for it. For a
decade now it has been the custom
to write the so-called American play
either in the tortuous valleys of the
west or in the drawing rooms of tie
effete east, but not in this instance.
Mr. Walter has taken as his central
figures the men and women of every
day America and they are spontane-
ous1y wholesome figures, too, not mere
mannilxins jemping at the pulling of
a string. There is life, fu1lblooded,
virile life in all of them, life We
must needs recognize and appreciate
and stalk with throughout all time
There is a refreshing treatment of
social characters. Messrs. Wagenthals
and Kemper have secured an extra
ordinarily brilliant cast of players.

termination of the question whether bank ioin-
ing an association could withdraw from it after
complying with all the requirements of the law.
The treasury officials regarded this question as
purely academic but they took the matter I'M
der consideration and decision was reached on
this point in very short time. The act itself
is entirely silent the subject.
The proposition of putting such a great
amount of currency which held the bu-
reau of printing and engraving init throes for
many anxious months, for it pointed out
when the measure finally passed congress after
a long fight that while it decidedly improb-
able that there would be a panic this fall, it
certainly necessary that the currency be
ready for deliverance in case unsettled condi
lions should introduce themselves into Wall

But if the word the trainers of the Aldrich-

of the emergency currency act
Most readers of congressional news in the daily
papers remember well followed closely the
struggle which took place in both the house and

the notes into such shape that they
might be put upon the market.
: Acting Secretary Coolidge of the
treasury overlooked the work and the
bureau of engraving and printing
which put out the currency was in
charge of Superintendent Ralph.
Each day Superintendent Ralph de
livered into the hands of the treasury
officials between So, 900, 900 and $4,000,
900 in the new style notes. Before the
end of summer there was over $780,
100000 ready for delivery to the banks
on call.
Congress meets again in December
and then the legislators will be greeted
by the great outlay of cash. If there
should be a panic this fall, which is
far from likely, officials declare, this
great amount of emergency currency
would be delivered to the strick-
en- districts within a few hours and it is
believed the trouble would end with
the appearance of the cash.
Up to August L only one emergency
currency association had been formed
but soon organizations began to ma
terialiZe all over the country and the
interest in the new act was heightened
to a great extent. The banks of the
District of Columbia had their articles
of association approved by the secre-
tary of the treasury about the middle
of July and to them belongs the honor
of being the first members of an or
ganization authorized under the emer-
gency currency law

Saevlin Herald: The Bemidji
Pioneer is certainly doing itself
proud in the manner in which it is
handling the Elk's convention which
is being held there this week. The
Pioneer has been boosting tooth
and nail'' for several weeks past in
the interests OF the convention, and
this last week it has, been printed
with beautiful purple ink. Their
special of "Wednesday was a peach.
crime" and the efforts of Bros. Pryor
and Rutledge will doubtless be a
main factor in bringing many visitors
to Bemidii this week. The town
has reason to feel proud of the
Daily Pioneer.
