THE CALLING OF
DAN MATTHEWS"

The public today is critical and is
just as careful in purchasing their
amusements as they are in buying
their hats, shoes or coats. Give them
what they want and they will come to
see it, but what to give them is the
question asked again and again by the
producing managers.
Messrs. Gaskill and MacVitty SEEM
ed to have solved this puzzle by giving
the theater-going public dramatiza-
tons of popular novels. This season
they have met with startling success
in "The Calling of Dan Matthews"
dramatized from Harold Bell Wright's
great book by Mr.. Wright and Els
berry w. Reynolds. Striking as was
the popularity of the story, it is small
compared to the favor with which the
play has been received. "The Calling
of Dan Matthews" has made a won
derful drama, heart stirring, natur-
al, pulse throbbing story of today. 1t
grasps it's audience and holds them
from act TO act through the entire
piece. Startlingly vivid and never
hesitating to call spade a spade, and
yet pure and clean and wholesome, it
follows the struggles of Dan Mat
thews to do right as he sees it. 1t
ripples along with the sunny humor of
the gentle old Doctor, and when the
play is played and the last curtain
falls on "The Calling of Dan Mat
thews," it can be plainly understood
just why it is success, and just
why the public want to see it.
"The Calling of Dan Matthews" will
be the attraction at Realty Opera
House on September %, where it will
be presented with cast far above the
average, and an adequate scenic equip
ment.

1t Is not difficult to adapt a southern
California bungalow to cold climate,
making a typical southern home where
the thermometer reaches 80 degrees
below zero. This bungalow scheme is
so practically laid out that it is almost

people, is not By any means an i'm
possibility. 1t has been achieved in
New Orleans and in dozens Of other
places where the community has be-
come aroused to the danger as well
as to the discomfort which the mos
quito represents. Moreover, the
process of determination is rela-
lively simple, requiring no elaborate
apparatus or enormous outlay of
either time or money.
1t involves, first, the elimination
of places where the eggs are de-
posted and the larvae develop into
full-fedged messengers o: woe. Stag
nant water, whether in pools or in
cans, and moist underbrush are
ideal nurseries, whence mosquitoes
by the million will emerge; drain the
pools, haul away the tin cans ond
cut down the underbrush and a big
start has been made. Defective
drain pipes also are potent with mis-
chief; they should be repaired. To
cap and cover all comes a liberal
application of coal oil to every sus-
pected breeding place.
A time will come when communi-
ties will have walked up to the fact
that to endure mosquitoes in a
neighborhood that has been de-
veloped and is comparatively thick
ly settled is not quite civilized; then
the mosquito will disappear from
ouch places, but it will never sue

nuisance and the danger are at their

in finding ways to spend it; and no.
body will seriously urge wasteful
expenditures merely IN order to
avoid such an embarrassment as
having a surplus on hand! At least,
nobody will quite have the hardihood
publicly to espouse such a policy.
The rigid tax rate Of $3.50 to the
hundred of assessment causes this
embarrassment. 1t ought, of course,
to be possible for some adnlinistra-
tive authority, preferably the Dis
trict Commissioners, to adjust the
tax rate to the demands of the time
and the assessment. But that can
not be done without changing the
law, which permits no exceptions and
grants no discretion.
