EDUCATION NOTES

RICH school enrolment in South
Carolina has risen from Asp to $500
in the past six years, and the amount
paid for salaries of high school teach
ers has more than doubled in the same
period.
Cincinnati has tried compulsory vo-
cational training and is well satisfied
with the result. The boys n girls
did not like it at first, apparently be-
cause of the compulsory feature, but
now seem to AXE to it with enthu-
siasm. The school authorities have
had the hearty cooperation of the
manufacturers in the work. -
The school system of Boise City,
Idaho, was recently ~reorganiZed on he
basis of a careful survey of the city's
needs made by a committee of educa-
tional experts. So well satisfied
We're the people of the city that a
number of them came to Superin-
tendent Meek and offered him 100 to
800 acres of land and half a million
dollars if he would go further and de-
velop the local high school into an in
dustrial city college.
Mississippi has built 27 county agri-
cultural high schools in the past two
years at an average cost of $780, 900 per
school. These schools furnish board
and dormitory facilities for $3.50 per
month, and the boys and girls are paid
a certain amount per hour for the
work they do, so that in most cases
the expense to the pupil is reduced to
about SO per month.
More thar a million people took ad-
vantage of the educational rains
sent through the rural districts last
year by the state agricultural colleges
of 81 states, according to figures COM
piled by F.. b. jerks, of h United
States Bureau of Education. In this
way the colleges have brought knowl-
edge of improved methods of farming
home tomany who would probably never
have beer reached in any other way.
The educational train usually consists
of 3 to 10 coaches we'll supplied with
exhibits and demonstration apparatus,
and in charge of practical men who
can talk interestingly on the farm
er's real problems. The stops mad
by these trains range from two hours
to half a day. Four state colleges
those in Texas, California, Louisiana,
and ok1ahoma-report attendance al
the stops of these educational trains
of a hundred thousand or more during
the season. The Oklahoma institu-
ton takes the opportunity to attach
to the train a car containing moving
picture views of college activities,
thus ~cleverly attracting the attention
of the farm boy to the possibilities of
an education at the State college.

Plan Biggest Bridge

New York. March 29.-As a result of
recent developments it now seems
probable before the snow flies this
city will see an actual beginning Of the
greatest bridge in the world, which,
when it is completed in 1920, will unite
Manhattan and New Jersey in a mile
and half long span across the Hudson,
costing, it is estimated, $42, 900, 600. To
cover this sum the legislatures of
New York and New Jersey will shortly
be asked to authorize a bond issue
and as soon as that is done actual
work will be begun, with the cost to
be shared about equally by the two
states. According to the plans pre-
pared by the engineers having the
matter in charge, the actual work on
the bridge itself will cost $29, 900, 900.
1t is figured that it will cost $4,000, 600
more to acquire the necessary prop
erty, IS 1000, 900 to take care of inter-
est charges and other financial ex-
penses. and $3,0O0,O 900 for engineering
work and contingent expenses. One

"A YEARS RUM

oh! OH! Delphine," the musical
comedy by c. NJ. S, Mcclellan and Ivan
Caryll, has passed its 20Gth perform
ance at the New Amsterdam theater
in New York and will easily finish out
the season at the beautiful klaw &
Erlanger house. "A years run in New
York." is a phrase somewhat flippantly
used in the preliminary notices of
plays touring the country. and it may
mean much or little, as you value New
York opinion. oh. Oh! Delphine,"
however, has the distinction of a years
run to the biggest weekly receipts
ever recorded in New York for a must
cal play, which is merely another way
of saying hat it has been seer by
more people in a given time than any
similar type of play. 1t is also of in
terest to know that "Oh! oh! Del
phine' has achieved a most decisive
success at the Shaftesbury theater in
London, where it has been very highly
praised. and the prediction is made
that it will remain there at least a
year.
The Daily Missoulian. [volume] (Missoula, Mont.) 1904-1961, 1913-03-30
"PLOT" is PASSING

The plotless play seems to be slow
ly appearing through the dense dra-
matte fog. Perhaps some day not
very far ahead the plot play will be as
out of date as the melodramatic thrill
lers of ~thirty-and less-years ago
are now, The desire for complete
naturalisln, which seems to be per-
meating the theaters more and more
each year, must, if it keeps on grow
ing. do away with plots. For of a
surety there is nothing very natural
about a plot, Life, whether Fortunate
itself so neatly, 1t just saunters
along, and the only consecutively de-
veloping feature is character. Real
life, in fact. is ar affair Of episodes,
and the drama that is sincere in its
effort to be natural must be ]arrayed
in significant episodes.
At the present time there are four
plays in New York which are more
or less in this form. They are Mile
stones "Thee Affairs of Anatol, ;,
Lift Women and THE High
Roao. OF thase the newest in form
and most constructive in substance
9 THE High Road In this play Mr..
: ueldon, aided by Mrs. 1fske's clear,
intelligent acting, has built a charac-
ter, From stage to stage of its ca
reer the growth is apparent, and the
causes of growth form the action of
the drama, instead of being concerned
with the story out Of which charac-
ter may or may not grow, as in the
drama of today, the spectator is con-
cerned with a character out of which
the story grows.
To build people seems a bigger
thing for writers ana actors to do
than to build plots, and it also seems
a more natural thing for al audience
to find interest in. The same idea
carried out in fiction has already won
Selma Lagerlof a distinguished place
in literature. Perhaps, for all we
know, the plot in both drama and fic-
ton is a passing form.

LIGHTING H FARM

1t is estimated that there are at
least two million gasoline and oil en-
gines on the farms in this country at
the present day and this number is
being added to at the rate of 500, 900
annually. The average size of these
engines is about seven horse power.
A great many farmers who have al
ready installed engines for power
purposes would also like to have cleo
trio lights for the house and farm
buildings and other electrical convent
ences but do not know how to go
about it to secure the necessary ap-
paratus.
The necessary auxiliary apparatus
consist of a small electric generator,
a storage battery and the necessary
wiring and lamps.
An electric generator large enough
to operate thirty of the new type of
ment filament Mazda lamps can be
bought very reasonably and the neces-
sary wiring can be done by the farmer
himself if he is handy with tools or a
competent electrician will do the work
for a nominal sum. The generator is
belted to the gas engine and run until
the storage battery is charged; then
it is stopped and not started up again
until necessary. Centrally, two or
three short runs during the week will
be sufficient, and even less where only
a few lamps are used at a time.
Of course it will be necessary to OBJ
tain the correct speed ratio between
the engine and the generator but this
Is easily figured out. A few hours

of the features of the. bridge will be
it's great central spar which will be
the longest in the world, 1850 feet
from tower to tower. The bridge it
self from Ninth avenue. to the Hud-
son county boulevard will be $500 feet
long. The bridge will have a greater
capacity than any yet constructed.
Provision has been made for two SUBJ
way lines, two elevated lines and four
trolley car lines. There will also be.
two driveways, each So feet wide. No
provision has been made for steam
traffic. All traffic will flow along
one level, allowing for ready transfer
in case of congestion or blockades.
The big suspension bridge, as planned,
will clear the surface of the river by
17C feet, 35 feet higher than any of the
Fast river bridges. The towers mic
will support the roadway will be of
steel ana 545 feet high. At the base
the towers will be. 204 feet wide. The.
Llans call also for two tunnels to be.
used in connection with the bridge.

William H. Crane is now on tour in
Martha Morton's comedy, The Sena-
tor Keeps House," in which he is to
be seen here April Is. This charming
story of domestic life in Washingt N
was brought out last season and en-
joyed a run of four months at the Gar
rick theater, New York city, where
Crane again endeared himself to his
constituency by the force of his ar
tlstic and wholesome portrai+ure of
that sterling type of American man of
affairs that he has been so signal in
making a dramatic figure of contem-
porary worth.
The company that supported Mr..
Crane during his New York run is
still to be seen in his support. The
0 opened the latter part of Septem-
Der and will be one. of the most ex-
tensive ever booked by Mr.. Crane.
This is due to the fact that it will
mark the popular comedians fiftieth
year upon the stage and it has been
the purpose of Joseph Brooks, who is
directing his season, to present Mr..
Crane in as large a territory as he
can possibly owe in order to make
his anniversary tour an unusual one.

REAL A

The following statement, having an
important bearing upon theaters
throughout the country, has been is
sued by Messrs, Klaw and Erlanger:
"A corporation has peer formed by
Messrs. KlaW & Erlanger for the pur-
pose of exploiting by means of mo-
ton pictures the plays these mana
gers own n are interested in. The
organization is known as the Pro-
tective Amusement company and in
cludes A. H. Woods and others.
Pat Casey is the general manager
OF the corporation, with offices If
New York. One of the largest studios
in the country will be built for the
to be leased or rented to a limited
number Of motion picture theaters
throughout the United States and
Canada. For this purpose contracts
will be made in various cities. giving
certain theaters the exclusive right to
THESE pictures. In the smaller cities
only one franchise will be given. 1t
is the purpose to release two PLAYS a
week and service will be ready by the
first Monday in next September, as
by that time more than loo plays will
nave been made up and ready for
shipment, thus insuring a change of
blll twice a week and a continuous
service Of n year or 81 weeks. The
difficulty with feature plays in the
past has been that the owner Of a
theater might get one in one week,
and then have an interval of several
weeks before he could get another.
IT. Hayes Hunter has been engaged
as the general stage director for the
taking of the pictures, and he will be
assisted by a corps OF the very best
men IN the picture making world. 1t
is the intention of the to cy-
pand its operations beyond the
United States and Canada to all the
large cities of the world, for in addi-
ton to their plays they are now in
negotiation with several we'll known

The club which will be primarily a
unique. hat it will be farther from the
earth h any other institution of the
kind, since it will occupy the twenty
seventh, tWenty-eighth and twenty
ninth floors of the Woolworth building,
which is the tallest commercial struc-
ture in the. world. Plans for this re-
marllable club are not yet completed
but such as are decided upon indicate q
scale of lavishness which will make it
one of the most notable clubs ever in
corporated. The membership will
probably be limited to 1000 although
this point is not definitely settled. The
total floor space will amount to almost
an acre, and it is estimated that the
cost of the furnishings and equipment
alone will exceed 100000. In addition
to the usual comforts and luxuries as
ordinarily found the new club will have
a city block and a half above the street
level a gymnasium, squash courts,
handbal courts, private dining rooms,
writing and %lounging rooms, as well
as a wonderful grill room. The latter
will be especially decorated with scenes
descriptive Of the early history Of New
York. The view from the windows of
this highest club will be remarkable,
overlooking the whole island, the rivers
and surrounding territory for many
miles. Altogether the biggest lunch
club in the worlds ~tallest building
promises to be. a novelty even for New
York.
