FROM WATER COMMISSIONER
Frank Newland Tells of Reductions
and Plans.

This business of saying that the
water rates can be reduced a certain
per cent at a certain time is absurd.
declared Frank W. Newland, present
commissioner of water and street
lighting, who is a candidate for re-
election next Tuesday Amy business
man will know that reductions in rates
cannot be made until they are justi-
fled Two years ago in my campaign
L told the people of Topeka that
would reduce the water rates just as
soon as 1 could Six months after 1
took my office the rates were reduced
p per cent to the ssmau consum-
er and a small per cent to the large
consumer. My policy this year is the
same as it was two years ago. When
the condition of the water company
warrants it there will be a reduction
in rates and the reduction will be just
as much as 1 can make it.
Last summer we put on a sprink-
ling rate, reduction of one-half of
the regular cost to consumers This
was an experiment but we found that
671 consumers took advantage of this
rate and used the water in sprink1ing
their lawns Eighty-two and one-half
per cent of the people who took out
these sprinkling permits received re-
auctions.
The financial and physical condi
ton of the water company is better
today than it ever was. When 1 went
into office two years ago there were

per cent interest Twenty-one months

MARIE TEMPEST.

Probably only a few Topeka people
have ever seen the great English act
ress, Marie Tempest. They will have
an opportunity Tuesday evening. when
she comes to Topeka with her admir-
able company in Nearly Married"

the performance. Nearly Married"

brief American tour. Topeka is in
deed fortunate to be on her booking

affected, without restraint or self-con-
sciOusneSs, she played the part OF
Betty Lindsay, and at the Shubert
Thursday night it perceptibly dawned
upon her audience that the portrayal
of Betty Lindsay was not only tech
nicaIly correct. but it was genius 1t
is no small wonder that she is the Ia
vorite of all of Britain and that when
she appears in this country that big
crowds turn out and give her warm
welcomes.
While Marie Tempest is the star of
Nearly Married" her supporting ca ST

all English. with one exception, and
the natural way they come and go and
talk is more or less of a surprise to
American theater goers, used to many

clever one and was written by Edgar

his wife. and even down to the +-supeS"
there was not a single flaw in the
acting.
Nearly Married is a comedy, not
of the slap stick order but real high
class comedy That does not mean
that it is a somber and deep comedy
but that the clever and entertaining
features of the play are carried along
with a plot that has some meaning TO
it. 1t centers around the domestic
troubles of Harry Lindsay and his
wife. They engage a divorce specialist
to settle their difficulties. but instead
of seeing the whirling waters
smoothed over with a happy divorce,
the specialist is the cause of more
disaster. Complications follow fast and
furious 1t is all a mixup until the
curtain goes down for the final act
Nearly Married is one of the most
enjoyable comedies of the present day
and is not patterned after any that
have ever been in Topeka. 1t is we'll
