"a PAIR OF SIZES. :,

one of the attractions that local
theatergoers have been looking for
ward to is Edward Peple's famous
farce, "A Pair of Skies" which will
be presented at the oliver theater
Friday night.
The cast includes many distin-
guished farceurs. viz: Harry Stubbs,
Marion Ballau, Alice Claire Elliott,
Walter Fenner. Godfrey Matthews.
Jane Quinn. James T. Galloway.
Maize Fogarty, John Merritt, Jack
Houston. etc. Edward Peple has
given 10 American theatersoers
many notable successes, among them
being THE Prince Chap" and The
Littlest Rebel in which william
and Dunstan Farnum were starred
In a Pair of SKIES" he departs
from his earlier style and writes in
a purely farcical vein and Yet re-
tains the ability to make his charac-
ters familiar types.
The story briefly is as follows:
Two business men. enjoying q finan-
cial prosperity in their joint enter
prise. get 20 quarreling as TO which
one of them is responsible for the
success OF the business. They final
ly decide that they will dissolve
partnership and call in their attor-
ney TO arrange the necessary details.
Neither one is willing 20 sell out
TO the other. and the poor attorney
at his wits ends suggests as they
cannot arrive at a commercial un-
derstanding that they both prove
their good craftsmanship by play
ing a hand OF stud poker. the win
ner TO run the business affairs for
one year and the loser TO act in
any mental capacity that may be
allotted him.
Each being possessed OF the gam
bler's spirit. they agreed and after
drawing this agreement up in legal
form, which both signed, the lawyer
deals out the cards. A pair of skies
wins the pot, and the first command
given by the winner Is that his un-
fortunate partner report at his
house 20 serve him as butler, and
20 raise side-w hiskers TO remind him
OF his duties. From now on the
fun comes in rapid succession, the
dialogue is brilliant and the situa-
tions the most novel ever presented
in farce. OF course the part would
not be complete without the eternal
feminine taking a hand. and IL is
through the feminine Efforts Of the

RUNNING UPSTAIRS
Physical Energy It Expends
Quoted In Horsepower

To lift $50 pounds one foot in
one second requires what is
known as one horsepower. SINH
larry a horsepower is able to
raise twice that weight one foot
in twice the time, or one-half
foot in just that time. More
over, it can raise half $50 pounds
one foot in half a second, or
two feet in a second, and so on.
Therefore when we lift one
fourth Of that weight, 1879
pounds, four feet in one second,
we are exerting horsepower.
According, when a person who
weighs 1872 pounds runs up
stairs at the rate of four feet
a second, he is exerting the equi-
valent of horsepower. For a
man weighing twice that much,
275 pounds, it would be neces-
sary to climb at the rate of only
two feet a second to exert a
horsepower. 1t is possible to do
much more.
AS a matter of fact, a horse
often eXerts many times a horse
power. The average horse can
draw wagon up a hill where
a ten horsepower engine with the
same load would fail. A horse
power does not represent the
greatest momentary strength of
the average horse, but is a meas
ure of the power which he can
exert continuously New York

Sackett complained that his

BLAMES THE REGENTS

gents of University for Cut
in Budget

Because of a disposition on the
part Of the legislature, in it's at
tempt to cut down appropria-
lions, also to include the amount
asked for the state university
the charge has been frequently
made that the lawmakers arc
dabbling in petty politics and
are suffering from a lack of
knowledge of the actual needs
of that great institution. All of
which may not be far from the
truth, without however, justify
ing the large amounts asked for
by the university regents. And
for this lack of public confidence
in the demands of the regents
he latter alone are to blame.
