Curtain Calls

Mildred Menow, who is playing the
character of Annie Hopkins in THE
Old Homestead in the Newark The
atre, comes of an old theatrical fam
lily, and although of Scotch ancestry,
her ancestors have figured in some of
the greatest traditions Of the stage.
Her father was at one time consid-
cred one OF the greatest pantomimists
of the English stage, and the elder
Coquelin, on a visit TO England in the
early part of the century, gave him
a banquet in which he toasted him as
such, and at the conclusion presented
him with a testimonial signed by the
worlds greatest artists.
This testimonial still remains in the
family, and Miss Menow therefore
feels that she has some right 10 the
heritage.

was one OF the assistant managers

President Supports Railroads in
Their Plea For Assistance
lad to Call Attention of the Country to Imperative Need
That Railroad Credit Be Sustained

in the proper maintenance and CON-

ways Is too manifest. They are in
dispensabIe to our whole economic
life, and railway securities are at
the very heart of most Ivestments,
large and small. public and private,
by individuals and by institutions.
L am confident thai there will be
active and earnest cooperation in
this matter, perhaps the one com.
mon interest of our whole Industrial
life. Undoubtedly, both men In and
out of official position Will appre-
ciate what is involved, and Will
lend their aid wherever it is possi-
BILE for them to lend 1t.
But the emergency Is, in fact,
extraordinary, and where there is
manifest common interest we ought
all of US to speak out in Its behalf,
aud I am glad to join with you in
calling attention to it,. This is the
time for all to stand together in
united effort to comprehend every
interest and sustain it In every le-
ultimate way.
"The laws must speak plainly and
effectively against whatever is
wrong or against the public inter
est, and these laws must be observ-
ed for the rest aud within the
sphere of legitimate enterprise we
must all stand as one to see justice
done and all fair assistance render
ed and rendered ungrudgingly.

Tubacco Growers. Look.

Considerable quantities of tobac-
co stems have long be exported to
Germany and other parts Of Europe
where they are often used in the
manufacture of low-grade smoking
tobacco aud as source of nicotine.
Should the demand of Europe for
American Tobacco stems cease,
these stems, which contain large
quantities of plant food, especially
potash, may be used to good advan-
tage by the American grower of to-
bacco as fertilizer. Soil fertilIzed
by these stems, secured from the
cigar and tobacco factories and
stemmerIes, Will produce leaf tObsc-
co of better burning qualities and
textures. Tobacco stems as fertili-
ger should be applied in smaller
quantities than manure, because
they contain larger quantities of the
constituents which feed the plant,
according to the Department. Agrl-
cultures tobacco specialists. Two
tons per acre of "seed stems" (stems
from cigar factories) or l.2 tons of
