Recently a woman remarked
that she was tired of Weary
Wilson" because he had not de-
clared war before this with Mexi-
co. That woman has several
brothers any one of whom might
have been drafted into service and
not one of whom owned foot of
land or even an interest in Mexi
co. Would she want them made
sacrifice for the very men who
would have watched blood shed
without so much as lift a finger
to shoulder musket9 Would
she rather wait until the man low
er down was given a chance to
make something out of himself2
Would she not rather wait until
the man in Mexico who really
needs protection will get it if the
plans of the President carry. OF
course the capitalist wants this
thing settled and it should be,
but not at the benefit of the one
alone. The waiting may be weary
for a few but it would have been
infinitely more so had a nation,
young been called to the CORY
front.

Have School Board Over
looked This?

Either many of the school boards
have overlooked the new law con
corning distribution of school
books, or they have failed to re-
port their action to their county
superintendent or the State School
Book Commission.
The law of 1918 provides:
First,-The school district, by a
majority vote, may buy the school
books furnish them to the pupils
free.
Second. The schools district
board or boards of the education
may set aside revolving fund from
which the district clerk shall pur
chase books, selling them to pupils
at cost and returning the money
received to the revolving fund.
Orders must be sent to the
Secetary of the School Book Com
mission.
Third. The school district
board or board of education may
designate some dealers or dealers
to handle the books for that dis
trict, in which case said dealer
shall be allowed commission OF
ten per cent. All dealers so desig-
mated must make application to
the Secretary of the School Book
Commission, accompanied by an
agreement endorsed by the coun-
ty superintendent of his county.
These provisions for distribu-
ion of books apply to books
printed by the state only The
adopted books the contracts for
which have not expired are still
handled in the same manner as
before.

information to A. NJ. Thoroman.

Long Intervals Spoil interest
In Eugene Walters Drama
of High Finance

A goods.Zed audience waited pa
tiently nearly three hours and a half

Players Company, assisted by a de-
crepit force OF stage hands, worked
out the tragic destiny of Robert Rey-
| nolds and wife i'll Eugene Walters

terest might have been aroused over
the story of the chemist, whose wife
led him astr4y aud finally caused his
suicide. was absolutely spoiled by the
long intervals before and between the
four long acts when. with much talk
ing, dragged their slow and weary way
across the boards At last, tired of
sitting. the long-suffering audience
was released, to break madly for the
last home-bound cars.
The curtain rose on the first act at
about S:45. o'clock, and it was 11:2J
when the curtain fell after George
Webb, as Reynolds. had figUratiVely
blown his brains out.
"Fine Feathers" may have been
powerful vehicle for the alistar' cast
which toured the states, but it went
wide of the mark last night. Not that
there were any bad breaks" but
merely that it did not fit the local
company as 1t should have done
There were just three good characters.
George Webb was as good as ever. His
was the strong part. Had the others
done equally as we'll there is little
doubt the crowd would have gone
home satisfied despite the intermin-
able length of the story. Cliff Thomp-
son, newspaper reporter and friend Of
the Inflated Reynolds couple, gave
satisfaction with his portrayal and
Marie Van Tassell took the role, of
Mrs. Collins, the meddling aeighbor,
as nearly perfect rs could be desired
Florence Oakleys role is one of the
Disappointment OF the piece. It dis
tinctly' does not fit her. Moreover.
there were moments when she even
seemed doubtful of her lines. Guy
Hitner, the villain, as usual, in
the role of John Brand. the wealthy
crooked contractor who led the Rey.

part we'll enough.

PALESTINE FOR
THE ENsMA
RESULT FROM WAR
Associated Pressl

LONDON. England One result Of
the present war may be the realization
OF the dream OF centuries past
setting up of Palestine as an independ-
snt Jewish state. Both England and
Russia will favor the project. says the
London Globe-Englan because a
mail neutral state in the Holy Land
Will be the best possible protection to
Suez and Egypt, Russia because it will
make the way easier for her to settle
certain Jewish problems within her
own borders. Continuing, the Globe
says:
The events OF the moment show
how Immediately Egyptian integrity is
imperilled by the fact that a right OF
way through Palestine is open to
hostile power Palestine must be-
come either British or neutral There
is an obvious political objection to a
British occupation. Neutrality is the
more desirable solution.
But if Palestine is to become neu-
trail. who is to govern ito Directly
that question is raised the claim OF
the Jews forces itself upon our atten-
ton. We have to deal with the re-
markable fact that people which lost
its country over two thousand years
ago still cherishes the memory Of that
loss, and links the hope of recovery
with its deepest religious instincts.
Here then We have two influences
at work for the reestablishment of a
Jewish state-the British desire for a
neutral Palestine and the territorial
instinct of the Jews themselves. There
is a third influence. Russia has
pledged herself to the reestablishment
Of an autonomous Poland under the
Car. But in Poland, as We know it
now, there is one obvious obstacle to
the development of a Polish state
strong in it's national consciousness,
and that is the presence of a large
Jewish element. All who know Rus
sian Poland will agree that a settle
ment of the Jewish question is essen
tial to the complete success of the
great scheme to which Russia is
pledged, and will recognize that it is
precisely to the Polish Jews that the
reconstruction of the Jewish state
would make the strongest appeal"

the crooked proposition she eventual
Ily forces him to accept it.
The family moves into better QUAR-
ters in New York City. Dick Meade
the reporter, who knew OF the deaI
with Brand aid urged Reynolds tc
refuse it, again helps the Reynolds
family. Reynolds speculates ana
loses, torses a check, and the climax
arVives when the badly-built dam
breaks and news Is brought that hun
dreds OF people have been drowned
Reynolds eXonerates his wife, on the
theory that hus band is respon sible
ior his wffe's errors, and ends the tale
with the suicidal bullet.
In the earlier stages there are
some humorous touches which are
we'll taken by Thompson, as the re-
porter, by Marie Van Tassell and by
Helen Carew as the Swedish cook and
housemaid. To be effective the play
requires different treatment than the
company has given it,
