says the automobile expert of the Daily
Chronicle in an article describing types
of motor vehicles now In use in the war.
Where variety is concerned" he says,
lit must be conceded that the Germans
can claim the greatest degree of fore
thought, for they have two types of ma
chine at least which are not to be found
elsewhere.
"Entrenchments, 1t need hardly be said
play leading part in the campaign
Now 1t is not generally known, but 1t is
none the less fact, that the Germans
do a good deal of their trench-cutting
by machinery. Before the war broke out
they provided themselves with a number
of mechanical ploughs, driven by 200
horsepower patrol motors.
'It does not need much Imagination to
realize that engines of that power can
scoop out trenches much more rapidly
than men with spades: and though it is
improbable that the number of these ma
chimes is so large that they are likely to
be available at moments notice at
every single point at which entrench-
ment might become desirable, 1t cannot
be doubted but that the machines which
have been constructed have proved high
ly useful, and for aught We know may
actually have been employed at the out
set of the present battle of the Aisne.
'Inasmuch. however, as wire is COM
monty used for obstructive purposes. it
is noteworthy that the cars which the
Germans use for field work are fitted
with curved steel rods on the forefront.
One of these has a cutting edge, and
whenever wire Is encountered 1t is
caught up by the plain rod and passed
on to the cutting edge, by which 1t is
automatically severed

TODAY" PRESENTED
BY EXCELLENT CAST
Modern Play of Weak Plot Pre-
sented Before Fair-sized
Audience

'To-day the drama from the Yid
dish by George Broadhurst and Abra-
ham schooner, presented last night at
the Majestic, was in all probability
written with the idea in mind of pre-
senting a phase of life which could be
we'll worked into one of the popular
so-called problem plays" The main
theme of the play. apparently. was to
show woman's ability to fool her hus-
band, but in the play that wasn't
sufficient; the man had to catch the
woman, and thereby make the drama,
and the climax.
To day unfolds a story of mar
ried life; the wife happy so long as
the husband supplied those luxuries
she had grown to crave. Those gone
with business reVerses, one of her
friends (married) shows her how
easy it is to have all of the pretty
things to which she had become ac-
customed and leave her husband in
ignorance. The mother-in-law. who
suspected, had nothing to do with
forcing the denouement; that came
as the result of the husband being the
agent for the apartment in which he
was to meet his wife; he knowing
whom he would meet, she in ignorance.
Being in full possession OF the truth
GAINED by supposition rather than
evidence), he takes her life and then
calls the police.
To-day" as a play is weak in plot
and slow in action. Several vital
truths concerning our daily life are
pointed out, but they are not driven
home with the force which goes to
make the really successful stage SER
mon. The interest of the audience is
not held on those truths which are
made to play such a prominent part
in the first two acts.
The company which presented the
drama could not have given a better
presentation to the drama. Every one
of them showed themselves thoroughly
capable of doing justice to the part
which had been allotted to them-in
fact, they could have acquitted them
selves more creditably if the play had
afforded the opportunity. Especially
capable was Arleen HaCkett as Lily
Wagner, the wife who attempted to
fool her husband. AS the husband
Anton AsCher was splendid. He was
especially careful in the little details
which one so frequently finds disre-
garded on the stage. Marie Reichardt
and Hallett Thompson as the mother
and father supplied not a little comedy
with their broken English and their
witticisms. One might say that 1t was
a pity that better opportunity was
not afforded all of the cast to show
their real ability.
