O'keefe Is Turned Down.

Ever since he lost his job as patrol
driver O'Keefe has been on the SUI
pernumerary payroll and he sent in
a petition to the board of public safety
that he be transferred to the payroll
of the regular officers so he could get
his pay twice a month instead of once
a month. He took the matter up
with the chief, with Chairman Alline
and also with the mayor but received
no satisfaction.
His petition of last night resulted
as the board voted to turn it down

From the board of public works
came petition asking that the au-
tomobiles employed by that depart
ment be given storage space in the
police patrol shed and also that when
ordering gasoline for the police auto
and the fire department motor appar-
atus the board of public safety include
enough extra to furnish their ma
chimes. This could be charged up
to that department and would mean
saving, it was argued. The safety
board, however, did not see it in that
light and thought it would be too
much bother. The, commissioners
also thought it undesirable to store
any cars in the patrol garage ana
turned down beth requests.

CLEVER DANCERS, ON.
 BILL AT KEENEYS
.ln.I sz i i int j I 2

While they occupy rather incon- spicuous positions on the program, the acts of Root and White and The Millmars, stand out prominently among the attractions at Keeney's this week. These two specialties to which scant attention was paid in the preliminary announcements from the booking agents are actually better than the feature numbers and they sthe this weeks biggest applause get ters. Tn fact they receive more at tention from the Keeney patrons than has been paid to any act play ing here in a long time and theater- goers who have attended any of the performances, arc waxing enthusias- tic over them.
 Root and White appear on the. bill under the simple designation of sing CTS and dancers FThey do some sing ing of -neritorious qualities. but @ft is their dancing that makes them prime fayorites. The boys are soft, shoe dancers and their work fur nishes a revelation even to old-time minstrel followers, who found their full in this style of entertainment
 
 ularity years ago. They work rapidly, keeping excellent time and they in troduce. many steps that are original and extremely difficult of accomplish ment. It is first class dancing spe- cialty and in itself is well worth the price which Keeney's charges.
 Sharing the honors with this team are the Millmars, a pair of acrobatic performers. They offer a very neat act, introducing feats that are new and entirely different from anything ever seen here. They do them clever ly too, exhibiting grace and style, and using no extras" to make an impress sion. They don't have to for their work is of an exceptionally high standard and is greatly appreciated by the audience.
 Gladys Hopetown and company in ''The Inspector" dramatic playIet, are also finding favor. Their sketch is cleverly written and is replete with dramatic situations that afford big opportunities to Miss Hopetown and her associate. The company takes ad- vantage of every chance which the author has provided and the results are most gratifying. Miss Hopetown is a capable young woman and her work is splendid.

WILMOT GOODWIN'S
 THIRD YEAR HERE

The song recitals to be given by der the auspices of the Stanley Wom ems Relief Corps on Friday and Sat urday evenings of this week will con- toire which MT. Goodwin has arranged for the present tour under the title of ''The Power of Song The num- bers by Maurice Warner, violinist, and Lee Cronican, piano, take the place of the second cycle of songs.
 MT. Goodwin's program is built up of beautiful old songs made familiar by years of intimate knowledge. Such favorites as The Heart Bowed Down. Forgotten and Love Abid- ing" create mood in which the re- captivity of the audience is stimulated through appeal to it's heart. Because of the understanding thus established ed 1 between the artist and his audience the way is prepared for full enjoy ,ment of the second group. Tn this l the vocal gems, to which Bantock has given the title Jester Songs," lead ,ur 1 to the glorious aria 'yision Fugitive 1 from Massenets Herodiade. Aftei l@the aria the initial mood of the au- die1ce is restored by the beautiful i Dedication" by Franz, which is used las if it were an encore, though nc
 encores, as such, are given in the pro l gram
 The final group begins with ths !, charming Open Thy Lattice" ant 1 reaches it's climax through we'll choses
 songs in the magnificently inspiring Sword of Ferrara,' by which tn, l great power of Wilmot Goodwin l voice finds glorious opportunity

"A Woman's Resurrection" comes to Fox's next Friday and Saturday, and in it can be seen not only Betty Man. sen, the famous Royal actress of Eu- rope, but also William J. Kelly, tho fayorite young American leading man and Edward oJse famous to the Will liam Fox public by his striking work in "A Food There Was.''
 Betty Nansen, as katusha.

From the ear Her scenes of the play where katllsha is betrayed to the last great climax, Betty Nansen's art rings strong and true. ~
 As Prince Dirnitri, MT. Kelly gives a superb performance which runs tn e gamut from love to burning remorse and despair. He ably suggests the re- gret of the man who has betrayed Katusha and then faces her again yers later, when she is a stoIid, har- dened woman of the streets in a pris- on dock charged with intent to kill. He is on the jury that settles the wretched woman's fate, and after it is pronounced, he, with noble self-ab- negation follows the dreary train of

FOX'S TO PRESENT
 FIVE PART ROMANCE

"The Shadows of a Great City, has as it's stars Thomas Jefferson and Adelaide Thurston, is in five parts and two hundred scenes and was staged in the various sections of the Metropolis that were mentioned in the original manuscript. The above attraction with the latest episode of "The Exploits of Elaine" will be shown at Fox's today and tomorrow. The story of ''The Shadows of a Great City, in brief is: A young ne'er-do- we'll, son of a rich merchant, loves the daughter of poor inventor. An accident one day kills the inventor and the merchant claims one of his unpatented inventions. The girl, now an orphan, reciprocated tho love of the young ne'erdo-well, but the mer- chant objecting to the attentions of the young couple orders the young man from the house. The boy secures a job on the docks and by reason of his refinement occasions the wrath of the foreman and in struggle that ensues he pushes the foreman from the docks. and thinking he has killed
 him endcavors to hide. Chased by detectives who trail him to the East river. an exciting pursuit takes place that leads the audience through a great deal of lower Manhattan Ls-

these are within the control of the community"
 Children Not as Independent as Cos
 lings.
 'It is an aifront to civilization,' con- tinued Miss Lathrop, speaking of the relation of infant m mortality to poverty -"the vast number of earning moth CTS who work for a family and at the same time try to give young children the care and nurture which we ali know they demand. The human being at birth is the most helpless of all creatures. "A gosling is able to go in search of it's own food as soon as it is born, but nature doesn't turn out hu- man beings in any such independent condition. -..'. ]
 However, we are not trying to en- force anybody to do anything. These reports--there arc several in prepara- ton besides the recently completed one of JohnstoWn-ar perfectly hon est and uncolored, set forth in such terms as can be read by any one. The remedy is a citizens concern. Not a question of any one class in the com munity, but one in which all arc in terested and responsible. The old patriarchal household is gone. Tagore prays in his 'Gitanjali' that our mar row domestic walls may be torn down. Civilization demands that the isola- ton of the individual family be broken down, to give place to com munity liying--communa responsibil- ity for each individual family.
 "The New York state department of health has adopted for it's legend these words: Public health is purciaasabIe: within natural limitations a commu- nifty can determine its own death rate Is not this statement challenge tc the patriotism of all public spirited citizens?''
 Birth Registration Important.
 According to Miss Lathrop the thing that hampers the work of the bureau more than anything else is the imper- lection of birth registration in this country. While in other countries the proper recording of births has long been established in the United States it is known that only the New England states, Pennsylvania, Michigan and New York city and Washington have y zens. .8
 ''To study infant mortality it is necessary to know how many babies have been born and how many have died before they were one year old. M oreover, as a working eXpedient birth registration is coming to be re- garded as indispensable in the eradi- cation of three great evils which af- feet the children of the country-the reduction of infant mortality, the preservation of the child's right to education and the abolishing of child labor. In serving all three of these ends birth registration is an indis- pensable aid. It is a protection for children at school and at work, since the enforcement of child labor laws and compulsory education laws should i dovetail, and both must rest on a basis of birth registration .-t
