say no, somebody knows she'll say
ay," and makes his exit in burst
iof applause. In the second scene the
three friends enter one week later
with King Cana, the father of the
Princess, into his court. There the
King informs them that against his
own wishes, the Princess his daugh-
ter; led on by the Lady Blanche,
had caused an inscription TO be put
upon the gates where the Prince
lived, "Let no man enter here" and
that he saw no way for them to get
into the gates. Cyril hit upon an
idea for them to get to see the
Princess-that of going down in
woman's garb.
This changes the situation and the
Prince and his followers decide to do
this. After a cross-examination Of
Ipse, a nobleman, as to the character
and appearance of the ladies of "The
Princess" the scene is closed. In
the next scene Lady Psyche is seen
drilling her pupils at the University
in "The Poetry of Motion" After
the very pretty drills, the Princess
comes in and reads a letter saying
that three ladies desire to come into
the court and enter upon the prom

court by the Princes, while Lady
Blanche reads them the agreement

friends all: agree, and this lends the
third scene. In the fourth scene
Lady Psyche makes a speech 10 the

Psyche of the pupils; Sch runs for

will only keep quiet and not make

Melissa and the daughter of Lady
Blanche, comes in at this juncture,
but promises not to tell of anything
she has seen or heard. This ends
the fourth scene. The fifth scene is
q corridor in the halls of the Uni
versity where the Prince and his
friends are discovered, discussing
the merits of the play. Soon Mells-
81 comes in and informs the three
that her mother, Lady Blanche,
knows all, and begs pardon of the
three, as it was her (Melissa's) fault.
After the Prince l., called out to ride
with the Princess, who still thinks
the three are women, Lady Blanche
comes in and soliloquizes on what
she must do in regard to the three
men, and says she will not shield
Lady Psyche, whom she now hates.

Aside from all Of this, looking at the
automobile industry and considering the
way it may or may not be effected. let
US go back q few years. During the de-
preston of 1898, 'A and '95 the bicycle
business was growing as fast and the
volume Increasing as rapidly as has the
motor car business in the last few years
It was conspicuously noticeable that the
bicycle business prospered and increased
when every other important industry suf-
| fered from stagnation.
Bubble Did Not Burst.
IN 1907 and 1908. when other industries
were paralyzed by the financial depres'
sion. the general prediction was that the
automobile bubble would surely burst
It did not. For it was not bubble. Or
the other hand, the automobile business
in these years established records fol

The plant is thirty five years old and
one Of the points upon which the con-
cern lays greatest stress is service. Any
part of an automobile which it has
built in the past can be replaced with

after the receipt of the order. In years
gone by and up TO the present time
the company has constructed about

will be produced this year. The COM
pany is conservative and never over

About 500 men are engaged at the

Scenes of Activity

KOKOMO, Ind, August 15.-With two
large automobile plants occupying promi-
nent positions in the manufacturing
world. this place. located almost due
north Of the Hoosier capital. is alive
with activity, so far as the automobile
business is concerned. The two motor
car concerns identified with Kokomo are
the Haynes Automobile Company and
the Arm Of Apperson Brothers. both con-
Germs being pioneers in the automobile
industry.
The Haynes plant lays no claim to
greatness because OF tremendous size,
but one is impressed by the general har-
mony of the place and by the deftness
and certainty with which the. army of
workmen attend Ito their. tasks. without
friction and disorder. The keynote OF
the factory is system. The executives Of
the company have grown mp in the busi-
ness and have gathered unto themselves
the wisdom that comes with years OF ex-
perience. which, in turn. is put back into

down the executives Of the company had

Twenty days after the fire all debris had
been cleared away and work begun on
