Poor circulation often causes redness;
It is due to an overcharged condition OF

TORRENS SYSTEM IS
BEING CONSIDERED
Real Estate Association May
Vote for or Against Plan at
Next Meeting.

Al the regular monthly meeting OF the
Salt Lake Real Estate association at the
Commercial club yesterday the Torrcns
ject OF consideration, Alex l.. Carr. an
abstractor. read n paper. In which the
system was explained, and arguments
given both for and against the system.
Following his paper. general discus
sion was taken up.
The Torrcns system. according to Mr..
Carr has It's good and its bad fea lures.
He said 1t looks good from the outside,
but when II comes to probing under the
surface 1t does not appear good The
system, as lie explained, calls for a reg
isterinG OF all deeds with the district
court. When purchase OF property is
TO be made the owner Of the ground and
the intended purchaser appear In court
and the title is transferred and certif1-
cate issued TO the purchaser. The title
is investigated at the time the land Is
registered, and ny the registering the
title is practically auieted The SYSTEM
Is in vogue in several European coun-
tries and works well. but Mr. Carr says
the ownership OF land there rests In the
crown, while here II rests with the pco-
pie.
Mr.. Carr says tho abstractovs all over
the country arc 1ghtng the system
wherever 1T crops out, because IL makes
no further use for abstractors. and they
are thrown out OF business. The associ
alton did not vote other for or against
the system at yesterdays meeting. but
probably Will at q meeting 10 be held
two weeks hence.

Have you noticed the white silk ruff
files which Jack Artois and his partner
wear In their act at the Orphuem this
week? Well. these same innoccnt-look
ing ruffles came near. causing some serl-
Gus trouble for these boys and they were
accused of smuggling them. 1t happened
last year when they were crossing the
line between Germany and Russia. One
OF the Russian officers pouDced on one
OF the dozen or more strings OF ruifles
which the team carries and was going ia
hold the boys for attempting to smuggle
silk No amount OF explanation that they
were acrobats and these were a part OF
their tools of trade would suffice and
the boys could not bring themselves TO
resort to "A woman's weapon of tears. al
though they were angry enough 10 cry.
1t ended by the pair pulling off their
coats each donnIng set of ruffles and
giving an impromptu turn ON the snow
covered platform to back up their word
that they were tumblers. The act pleased
tho Russians so much that they sent for
tea and served a lunch on the platform
and the boys passed through with their
rufflcS intact.

THE AMERICAN JEW AND THE
AMERICAN STAGE.
THE
(By Miss Ola Goldberg J

That the American Jew has always
been very important figure in Amer
lean stage life is a very evident fact
That his influence has been entirely
good, ! can not say, but in the main,
it has been very good indeed We have
had some very poor Jewish actors,
few very poor Jewish writer's and
some very detestable Jewish imper-
Senator'S who, l regret to say, are Jews
themselves.
But, first l want to consider the good
influence of the Jew on the American
stage
From the writing of our best plays
to their production, they are handled
entirely by Jews.
Look at the audience of a first-c1ass
theatre; count the Jewish people, if
you can; take them away and see how
many are left
M. D. Emery is we'll known to Am
erican audiences, as the author Of 'The
Two Orphans, and "a Celebrated
Case" He also corroborated with Jules
Verne, in around the World in Eighty
Days." and michael Strogoff."
One of the earliest of Jewish dramat-
lists was Mordecai NJ Noah Born in
Philadelphia in 1885, his first play was
Paul Alexis, or The Orphans of the
Rhine" It's name was changed to the
Wandering Boys and was played in
the Park Theatre in New York in 1920.
He also wrote successful play which
was brought out at the Park Theatre
in 1919 His first attempt to obtain
compensation was in "The Siege OF
Tripoli,' which was also brought out
at the Park Theatre, on May 25th,
1920. This brought the author two
thousand dollars, but shortly after the
house took fire and Noah gave all his
money to the poor members of the COM
pany who lost their wardrobes in the
fire
Such small incidents as the action of
Noah are the best refutations of such
charges. For the Jews have always
