The Childrens Aid society, in the
month OF March alone. entered into
the lives OF not less than 569 children.
Think what tremendous work this
means in the course OF II months.
Think what vast resources are need
ed to carry on this work and what
fund OF love, compassion, brotheTli-
ness and human kindness is developed
Ia the care and consideration OF the
liyes OF these thousands of little ones.
In that one month, the society paid
the board OF l22 children in boarding
homes. II found free homes for Us

willing to adopt forsaken and aban-
doned children and treat them as or

COYOTES AND TEMPE6TS
 PLAY AT GRANT PARK
This is Second Game of These Two School .Teams-LocaIs Improve.
 May Surprise Southsiders

Coyote ball players will meet the little brothers of the Bears from Tempe this afternoon on the Grant Street diamond. The real reason for this is that the workers have let a flood of water on the Eastlake Park grounds, and as neither Coyotes or Bears like moisture all same cats, the game will be staged at the other place
 This is the second time that Tempe plays Phoenix High this season, and in view of the fact that the Coyotes have rallied enough to lick the spots off Glendale once more, it is safe to predict that they will give the south side visitors a good run for their money. Tempe didn't do a thing but macerate the prairie foxes in their last game on Coyote day. But confident Coyotes now say that they will avenge that defeat and pile a lot of injury up on top of that.
 The game will be called at 3:30.

 many republicans who voted against the preliminary plans will eventually vote for this repeal. The solid pro- gressive delegation, led by Murdock, was aligned against the majority.

Two men who fought with him for the presidential nomination by the party, were openly arrayed against him.

W|SEACREs DISCUSS 2 FUTURE OF TABL0|OS
Some Think They are Doomed Others
 do Not

Some few days ago, in the lobby of the Adams Hotel there gathered a number of theatrical and newspaper men, who, as is their custom, began discussing shop.
 The conversation covered the various phases of the business and Wended it's way toward the future of the drama. Many opinions were presented as to what tomorrow was to hold forth and if anything new could possibly be pre- sented to appease the thirst of the tired business man for diversion
 The movies" were given their full value for the popularity they have at tained and it was predicted that they would eventually revolutionize show business if they had not already done so
 The question arose, whether or not. the short version or the full evening performance was the most popular
 Fritz Fields. than whom no better exponent of the tabloid field exists. sagely remarked that he had recently returned from trip to China and while abroad had an opportunity to observe the drama in it's original form. "The Chinese play, remarked Fritz 'is per haps the earliest evidence We have of dramatic art. It covers a period which
 takes the audience upon a trip through the career of some great Chinaman from the cradle to the grave. Being played in several hundred acts. many thousand scenes, occupying a period of several months and sometimes years. before its final curtain" This same is equally true of the ancient Greek mystery plays.
 The medieval drama, of which Shakespeare was the greatest expon- ent, shortened the length of the ancient
 plays into five or six acts of some fif-
 teen scenes. The melodramas of the 18th century followed out the general constructions of the Shakespearlan period however the length of time was again shortened and instead of the play covering period of several years. the
 incidents took place in a relatively short space of time. The drama of today has still further condensed. not only the time of presentation. but the incidents occur during the actual time of playing while the acts have been shortened to two or three, at the most
 while in most of the better dramas but one scene is employed
 This all leads up to the natural in ference that the general trend of the theater is toward the short or tabloid form of amusement
 Louis B. Jacobs, who has just re- turned from the east, remarked that tabloid versions of the greatest dramas of the day are more popular if possible than in their original form and in Chi cago, the Deep Purple and Third Degree" are having a tremendous run in tabloid form at popular prices where heretofore the prices for the same shows were $2.

amusement throughout the country. It is only now that the tabloids are being recognized at their real value and six. of the largest cities in the country have devoted their best amusement places to this form of entertainment, which is to be installed by MT. Jacobs of Phoenix.
 The concensus of opinion was that the tabloid drama and musical comedy is the real definite future of the theat- rical profession. Already Weber and Fields have adopted it, and many oth- CTS are expected to swing into line.
 If this is so, Phoenix has been several years in advance of the rest of the theatrical calendar.
