markable stage productions seen here in years. It requires revolving stage on account of the quick changes or scenery necessary. Some of the roles are highly emotional, and one really wonders, after seeing Mary Ryan's won derful portrayal of the leading role, how she can still live and enjoy good health after having gone through with the strain it must require, for more than 3SO performances.
 It is impossible to think of ones own troubles during a performance of "On TriaP'-There seem to be no other trou- bles in the world save those of the hero and heroine of this remarkable drama

Gurls may not be abull to call on yung men, or invite them to the theeatre or drop in on them at theere offises and all that, but they have way of conveying the infermasion to enny yung man they happen to like, that he is most agreeabull, that is most convinsing. It couldn't be moor plain and moor convinc- ing 1t it weer printed on the frunt page of newspaper Evvery body understands 1t, eXsept the yung man himself, and he would if he was perfectly rasionel. When yung man is in love its pretty hard for him to un- derstand enny thing That is one period of his life when his he'd is as solid as block of granit. But the verry quickest way for him to recnvver his sannity would be for the yung lady herself to commense the love making-that is in enny uther manner exsept her own.

fAY FEW YORK, May 29.-(Special.) VlNl The recent trial of Miss Eugenia eQSd7$Hl Kelly, New York heiress Es1zEy whose mother had her arr ested
 on charge of being 'incol rigi- ble," has caused a distinct fiutter of the white lights. and has discovered a few new titles to fit certain habitues of that sector C'sector' being real war talk)
 &s soon as such titles as tango trim sners" and dance palace parasites" began to float around the Yorkville courtroom. Broadway shifted uneasily, and when 1t became generally recognized that incor- rigiblity, of the Eugenia Kelly kind, was legally punishable offense, the white lights fiickered very perceptibly.
 Think of it." chorused the "trimn,ers'' and parasites in question, why, Miss Kelly was just one of us. All she did was to spend few thousand dollars every week. and what if she did give one of our male dancers some thousands-why not wasn't he good dancer?' a4
 But Miss Kelly's mother declared all such donations and expenditures to be a part of the regular trimming process, and when daughter Eugena persisted she brought the charge of 'incorrigibility." The girl, however, out of the wisdom of her 19 years. defined incorrigibilitv as meaning smartness and smartness, to her, meant sort of social prestige.
 She declared that one was nobody in kNew York unless ione took in at least five cabaret restaurants after the theatre in the evening. And Miss Eugenia ideas about the Broadway life are shared by thousands of other girls in this city. Many of them follow her programme, while many others do not, for the obvi- ous reason that they lack means or men to furnish them. rst
 Let's take look at that programme; it 5s very popular here, and many believe It is ''the life," while others who have dis- co1ered that it is, in reality, the death. yay cling to it so long as strength and v Ih or credit last.

The Doctur cums to bat and settles the entire contest on the furst ball pitched and that's all theere is to 1t. When one reeds the Doc tur's obsurvasions he realizes that theere is no cum back, and settles down hopeless ly to the adopsion of the Doctur's veews and lets it go at that.
 Doctur Eliza halls frum Bostun, as we have meDsioned. Bostun is good phase to hail rum. I had frend onse who told me that he spent four days in Bostun one Sun day. So to begin with the Doctur's veews command revverense and one thing an- uthe~ simply becawse she selected Bostun as a phase to issue sed veews frum.

 Dr. Eliza wants the wimmin to do the corting. It is just as proper for the wim- min to cort as it is for the men, seys the Doctur.

VALUABLE SUGGESTIONS

Speaking for a special comm ttee
of the Fair Association and for the
University Extension Committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, Judge Morgan
edge today recommended that ar
rangements be made for having the
University make exhibitions of par
ticular interest to school boys and
girls at the County Fair on Friday,
September Oath, which is to be chill
dren's day 1t was suggested that ex-
hibitions by some of the University
athletes would be especially interest

pressed the opinion that the students
and faculty of the University would
cooperate with the Fair management
in such a plan.

STOPPED The PAY
OF BANDMASTER
OPINION OF CITY ATTORNEY THAT
ANNUAL LEVY FOR SUPPORT
OF BAND IS ILLEGAL
Creates CONSERVATION in Business
Circles-Way Paved to Continue
Band

A small sized sensation developed to-
day in Chamber of Commerce and
business circles when it became known
that the city council, acting on ad-
vice of City Attorney Orland, had
concluded to eliminate the annual levy
for the maintenance of the city band
and had instructed municipal officers
not to pay the monthly warrant to Di-
rector E. j. Carey. The council was
in the midst of the passage of the
ordinance fixing the annual levy when
the matter came up. 1t was also stat
ed by the city attorney that the oc-
cupation of the office rooms by the
Chamber of Commerce, the building Of
which is owned by the city, without
paying rental was also a violation.
The position taken by the city attor-
ney was inspired by the late suit filed
against the county officials for dona
tions made to the county fair.
1t was learned today that business
men would CONFER with the city cOuH-
Gil members this evening in an en-
deavor to straighten out the tangle and
suggest plans for legally carrying on
the maintainance of the band. 1t was
suggested that the legal status could
be made valid by the passage of an
ordinance creating a municipal dl-
rector of music and fixing an annual
salary for the payment of director.
In this way it is suggested that the
annual levy may be legally made.
The council last night placed on fin
al passage the ordinance providing
bond issue for sewerage Independent
district No. 3.

Interest in the institute is not all
confined to teachers alone, but like
wise to laymen. Relatives to the in

"It is suggested that teachers insti-
tutes discuss the following questions,
and that the points brought out be
taught pupils in each public school.
The schools of this county are absorb
ing 46 per cent of it's total expend-
itures and their total cost is increas-
ing more rapidly than any other func-
tion of government. Perhaps this
cannot be helped, but it is worthy of
careful consideration, comparison and
analysis:
1. What are the different sources of
revenue by which public schools are
2. What percentage, in your county,
is derived from direct taxation?
3. What was the cost, per pupil
day, in your district last year
4. How does this compare with
previous years?
5. To what do you ascribe the in
crease or decrease?

UNITED STATES
ALWAYS READY
WELL-kNOWN EDUCATOR SAYS
EDUCATION HAS PERFORMED
WONDERS
Says School System Has Paved Way
And Pointed to Reason for
Russia's Failure

That the United States, in her gem
erous expenditures of money and en-
ergy on the education of her children,
has brought about in this country
state of preparedness" the like of
which is not known elsewhere in the
world, was an opinion expressed today
by Charles A. Shaver of Chula Vista,
Cal, in an address to the members of
the Chamber of Commerce at its reg
ular weekly luncheon. Mr.. Shaver is
one of the lecturers at the teachers
institute now in session here.
He pointed out that the United
States spends more per capita in edu-
cation than do England, France. and
Russia combined, and that in the bust
ness of making men is unequalled by
any other nation. The retreat of the
Russians before the Germans, Mr.
Shaver said was evidence of the su-
periority of educated masses over
the unschooled. He pointed to the
ready response of Americans to the
call to arms when the Civil War
broke out and to the rapidity with
which the citizen soldiery developed
into the finest army that history had
ever known as proof that the United
States is prepared in men as no other
nation can be.
Commenting on the troubles of
Mexico, Mr.. Shaver who lives within
five miles of the border, said that,
in a country so cloaked in ignorance.
self government is an impossibility,
that anarchy will always be rife and
that the only hope of peace in Mex
leo lies in American Intervention,
which he hoped would be an event of
the near future.
The educational system of Idaho in
general and the schools of Moscow in
particular were complimented by Mr..
Shaver who said that considering the
resources of the state and the size of
the city, the schools here and through
out the state are not surpassed in the
