GERMAN STUDIES
 ENGLISH STAGE

Berlin, April 15.--lSpecial. )-Herr Paul Harms, who is engaged on voyage of discovery for the Berliner> Tageblatt in London, writes that it is high time for Germans to cultivate a more intelligent impression of English theatrical life. He is not prepared to admit that the London stage has much to offer or to teach Ger mans. but he is unreserved in his adnni- heard.
 Herr Harms thinks London liked Sum- urun' because it does not make much appeal to the soul On the whole, what i,npresses him is that the English regard their theatres as primarily for amuse- ment, and not as he says the Germans do, as the main essential in life ''The theatre is considered in England simply as one of the possible forms of evening entertainment.''
 Heaven forbid" concludes Herr Harms, that I, as German, should dare to maintain that so revolutionary the- ory is right, but will say that 1t is de- cidedly better for the neryes and for do- mestic peace"

itY Is first given TO hear the addresses,
after which there will be time to ex-
anime the exhibits. All farmers are

10 be putting the responsibility di-
rsctly on those who are charged with
The duties or york Of running the diff
ferent divisions OF the city. People
will know all the time just exactly
what is being done. They will know
just exactly who TO go to il something
is wrong or il they want something
done instead Of having to run from a
boss TO superintendent and from
the superintendent 10 a committee
and from committee TO council
man or mayor to get some little thing
done.
The commission has now had six or
seven sessions In the council room
over the post office and the meetings
are all open TO the public and are most
interesting. 1t would seem as though
people would interest themselves To a
large degree as they are SO vitality >af-
