ATTRACTIONS 1.-THE THEATRES
THE PLAZA
tBy the Plaza Press 1gent.y

(By the Plaza Press A&6nts1
 Another new production of a never before-seen in stock play is on the boards at the Plaza theatre today when the PoH players make their first appearance in Henry B.. Harris's pro- duction of Edgar Selwyn's great play of American Life, ''THae Country Boy'' which enjoyed run of over year the Harris theatre, New York, and which created so great a sensation on tour when four companies played the piece to excellent business all over the United States. Strange to say, ''The Country Boy'' had dts initial perform ance at the Park theatre here two and was booked for New York innmedi- ately following dts opening, it went in to New York and stayed there a, year.
 Paul McA1lister, Brenda Fowler, Marguerite Starr, Arthur Buchanan, Arthur Griffin, Ralph J. Herbert, Mar ion Hutchins, Harrison Thompson, Burke Synlon, L. H. CrossTnan and the other members of the big stock orga- nization will have excellent roles. The staging of the play as usual, is under the direction of Giunio Socola, than whom there are no more faithful stage directors
 1.-The Country Boy'' is one of the adopted by MT. Se1wyn, that really made good in New York and on tour. It is unlike the conventional dramatic document, in that it's characters are not exaggerated it does not deal with the old theme of capital and labor, or the gulf between the stations in life Of an engaged couple, but has for its central foundation, the experience of almost every country boy who goes to the city to accomplish 'fbig things"
 The worn out topics so much over done, which go to show the struggling peor man. trying to marry the dissat- isfied rich girl, is fast being relegated out of the dictionary of playwrights, but the topic of '"The Country Boy'' is just coming drfto its own and hhis production, staged exactly as with the original company, will afford a nov city, a surprise and a most satisfying afternoon or evening to the large Poli clientele. Souvenirs today at both shows to all lady visitors.

NEW YORK. Aug. 29-Get out
your atomizer! II the cry In New
York among subway patrons.
An atomizer, the last word in
subway etiquette, and week Of
its use there brings promise that
it may be a habit.
Lest you don't know what ar
atomizer is, We explain as follows:
1t II one of those squeeze-the-rub.
ber-bulb things till the nozzle
sQuirts a spray of stuff that kills
germs. BARRIERS try to poke 1t in
your eye after shaving, the object
being to brighten you into a tip.
When you have your loaded
atomizef In the subway shoot a
little disinfsctant over your up
per person, and II the uncouth
person wedged in the doorway
has an air you don't like give him
a shot of 1t, too.
No one will object. because
every sufferer with an imagine
ton has looked over the sea of
heads in the cars ahead and con-
Jured up millions upon millions of
microbes rising until the rush of
air catches the deadly mass.
1t took a woman to solve the
problem. She boarded an up
town express at Brooklyn Bridge
and her colonial aspect and
naughty mien as she shifted the
car drew attention right away
The thin, aristocratic Iiostrils of
the grande dame quivered a mo-
ment as she reached into her
knitted handbag, pulling forth an
atomizer.
Passengers gasped while she
calmly sprinkled herself a few
times and shot several squirts in
to the atmosphere for good meas
ure.

It's time to pack up and so home
We're done with our loafing and straying
On mountain top meadow or foam;
We've got to get back to labor
And mix with the workaday mob,
The summer times over with, neighbor
It's time to set back to the job.
This day is the last of our heyday
1t marks our last fling for the year,
And now we'll look forward to payday
And know that the autumn time IL here;
For Labor Days rightly named, neighbor.
Il signals Tom, Harry and Bob.
That it's time to go back to their labor
It's time to get back on the job!
The season of loafing II over
The season Of languor Is done
We've got to quit lying In clover
And get back to work on the run.
And though we may question 1t, neighbor.
And though we may blubber and sob.
We're pleased at the summons to labor,
We're glad to get back on the jobl

Indications are the city is getting careless about
/ IL conservation
itztion Of the state, the council proposed to pay
woman lecturer from the east SIS for coming
here to talk. When q kick was made an attempt
Was made to legitimize the bill by giving her q
bogus appointment as municipal expert"
On the heels of this Commissioner Mills intro
fduces an ordinance to pay, in utter disregard of
tho laws of the state, $3.50 for entertaining fire
ohiefs convention. This ordinance win be up next
week
Yesterday the city commission agreed with the
county commissioners to take the money of the
taxpayers to build new road to Day island
This road to Day island is for the private benefit
Of few citizens who have summer homes there,
Including Commissioner Mills. They want to get
road through A. r. Titlow s land so they can get
their automobiles from Day island to the paved
Sixth avenue boulevard. 1t would be nice-but
y1y should the little home owners Of this city
who have summer homes on the waterfront and
|no automobiles, be taxed to pay the BILL
4itlow has offered to give the land to the Day
lifted, If they will build the road. They are out
side the city 50 the city cannot make an assess
rnent, so the commission kindly agreed that it
would sock third Of the cost on the general
city taxpayers. Then the county agreed to give
another third which means the city taxpayers must
pey most Of that also and the Day island people,
who own the island as private resort from which
the public Is practically excluded, will only have
70 pay one poor third.
IL is a beautiful scheme-for the Day islanders
including Commissioner Mills
Those w0rkingmen taxpayers in the Fifth and
Sixth wards ought to throw up their hats for pure
But this is not all. The city commission is get
tang In the habit Of considering such private roads
and public streets as legitimate places to put the.
money of the general taxpayers.
This week It was talking of paving ST. Paul ave-
nue. and Eleventh street across the flats.
Now when they talk about improving by grad
ing or paving the streets in front of the homes of
the poor workingman they simply get up an as
sessment district and the citizens pay the bills
But in the case of Eleventh street and ST. Paul
avenue the whole cost would be assessed against
the st. Paul mill, as it owns everything on both
sides Of the road.
So the council spent half an hour this week try
ing to devise way that the city could take the
people taxes and help to pay the cost of these inn
pEOVements.
AS an excuse for taking public money for these
particular streets it was said they were general
|th0roughfares, as If Pacific avenue, G street. ST.
1aeIens, Yakima, Il street. Sheridan, and all the
North End streets that have been paved are not
general thoroughfares.
Paul avenue streets are no different from other
streets IN the city, and if they are improved the
property abutting should foot the bill.
The Almighty Dollar in the city treasury belongs
10 all the people and the city commission should
et It out OF its head that it can spend it for what
exer little personal private benefit it chooses.
