 Fritzi Scheff. in Joseph NJ. Gaites' production of "1he Love Wager, a new opera of Hungarian original anh atmosphere, will appear at the Audi torium Thursday March 27th.
 The story is from an Hungarian source, and the libretto has been written by Edith Ellis; Cary Duncan provided the lyrics and the composer Is Charles j. Hamblitzer, musician whose exceptional talents were dis covered and vouched for by Miss Scheff herself.
 The Love Wager" gets its title from the plot, which deals with a wager made by Mitzi (Miss Scheff) the fascinating and rnischevious child of Hungarian widow, that she will give a handsome lieutenant one kiss for each of her three elder sisters if he succeeds in marrying them off. He agrees to find hus- bands for all of them, and by ser ies of incidents succeeds in making three of his friends propose in sue cession. This makes Mitzi the cid est unmarried daughter as she want. ed to be, for according to Hungarian custom, only the eldest unmarried daughter can receive marriage pro posals. But when the lieutenant pomes to collect. his three kisses there is an unexpected misunder- standing, but ultimately, of course, he gets the three kisses as we'll as the charming Mitzi

Mail on Sunday

The patrons of the post office
at Liberal who have any mail that
coIhes ON Sunday will now be able
to get it provided they have a
box. The order has been issued
to Postmaster Evans who request
ed that hte regulations governing
the second class Offices be dispens-
ed with and that the force be al
lowed to distribute the Sundays
mail. The assistants and clerks
have to sort the mail on Sunday
any way and this provision will
make the Monday mornings work
n little easier. The man who has
not a box will still have to stand
"a day of suspense and get his news
on Monday. But since the office
receipts are now above the requir-
ed amount for city delivery it
may not be so long until the mail
will be distributed over the city
by carriers. OF course the Sun
day mail would still have to be
left until Monday waiting for the
carrier, A petition is being cir
culated northwest along the dis
continued Hugoton line for a new
rural route out of Liberal to serve
the people who have no near or
daily mail service.

Help The Rural Carrier

By a late ruling of the Fourth
Assistant Post Master General,
all first class mail must be stamp
ed before being deposited in the
mail box. The carriers have had
considerable trouble in getting
the pennies out of the boxes and
it required some extra time to
stop and stamp the pieces of mail.
When coins are left in the box for
purchase of stamps, they must be
placed in a coin receptacle, not
enclosed in envelopes or wrapped
in paper or left loose IN the box.
The coins may be put in a cup or
small box or any convenient con
trivance so that the money can be
turned out easily In the carriers
hand. Every thing that tends to
facilitate the carriers work helps
the patrons along the lines to Sc
cure better and more adequate
sAryice.

umns more, along the same lines.

ments right in the quiet and comfort
of her own home.
