to cut out the unnecessary clerk hire

year and the auditor for the months
Of July. August. September. Oc-
tober and November; the treasurer
for the months of November. De-
cember, January and February. For
these clerks the commissioners must
fix the salary. Now, in addition the
board may allow additional clerks if
they deem it necessary for the prop
er dispatch of the business of the
office, at a salary stated by them
and the length Of time the clerk may
be employed. and then the officer
has the right to hire the additional
clerk.

What I sought, first Of all, was cor

the Glamorganshire, sail for Hong
Kong on October 28th? In less than
five minutes, the facts were mine.
Such a steamer had sailed for the
east on that date. Her agents were
Bartlett Brothers. Their offices were
in the Produce Exchange Building.
Another minute, and Bartlett Broth.
ers were on the wire. No, the Glamor-
ganshire did not take the South Amer
lean route. Her course was through
the Mediterranean and the Suez Canal.
She carried no passengers. She was
British. She was very slow. She had
called at the Azores and then at Glib
raltar, where she had been delayed
in coaling. Yes, she would make sew
eral Mediterranean ports. If all went
well, she would reach Port Said about
December 9th. Certainly not before
that. Probably a day or so later.

CLUB NOTES

established social institutions arc basically incorrect, and we cannot deny they have great influence upon human lives. A critical rather than d poetic standpoint is brought to view. There is a general cry for re form all along the line. Things are said that need to be said. whether they meet public approval or not. The poison is laid before the public and it must supply the antitode.
 Problem plays cannot be viewed through the keyhole-they must bo met face to face with the result that one is left with the disquieting feel
 ing that we are part of the situa-
 ton, whatever it may be; that We are vitally responsible for it and must help find 9 way out. No blame is lad upon human nature, or even upon the particular circumstance that brings out human weakness-to
 expose it to the public eye is sup posed to be sufficient and the public
 must wage it's own war against 1t.
 T think the strongest reason for
 the good of the problem play is the fact that the theme at once becomes personal. A direct intimacy is brought about between it's subject and the spectator Reform should start when the public is made to feel
 it's blame. We cannot help becoming q part Of the guilt and identified with it. We must go to the root of the cause and learn that we are in a measure at least masters of our fates and captains of our sOuls,' and of our neighbors' as well.
 The oId-fashOned romantic hero. with his lute and nosegay, does not appear to us, but a plain, very-day roan surrounded by the complexities Of modern civilization. Instead of being a universal type he is par ticlur one-a miniature, perhaps, but we are made to see the silent nobility of a small but splendid life. not in
 the grip of fate. but of d social con 5ition-man- made. Modern heroines do not commit suicide to escape L.aSeGJ they Sc rigAt "n living in their sorrow. and that is what makes them so intensely human and en- thralling. Romance is no longer thp basis of playS-facts are. Human nature is viewed under a microscope and given severe clinical analysis. It is the aim to tell all that is known and also what is not known about q given subject Some terrific outside force does not of necessity descend to create a situation. The events are perfectly in keeping with life around LIS, thus making a climax more con vincing though perhaps not so dra- matic. The end need not essentially be q wedding or a death, but merely 2 dropping of the curtain when the audience is supposed to have seen enough to accurately portray the con
 ditions and is left to draw its own moral.
