The investigation of complaint made against teacher in the North : end school has been dropped by the American Independence league. It is said that the. complainI was made by Richard Schaefere and was to the effect that the teacher discriminated against German scholars in requiring them to give opinions regarding the sinking of the Lusitania.

Advantages Of
the Left Drive
Are Explained

Jitney bus owners and operators are
learning that the location of the drivers
seat and control levers is a matter of inn
portance. Some declare that the saving

BILE by left drive and control is the diff
ference between success and failure.
The advantages Of left drive and control
in the Jitney bus are apparent. The left
side driving position permits OF the en-
trance and exit on the right side at the
front end of the car. Traffic regulations
require motor cars to stop at the right
hand curb and with this design passen-
gers enter directly from the walk. With
left side drive and right side entrance,
only one man is required to handle the
car and look after the pay-enter collection
system.
The popularity of left drive and control
in the jitney bus trade is exemplified in

AUTO SALES ON INCREASE
High Prices Received by Farmers

FACTORIES BEHIND IN ORDERS

Reports from motor car concerns all
over the country indicate heavier de-
mand for automobiles than has ever be-
fore been known in the industry Five
hundred thousand cars were sold last
year, and there Is every reason to be-
lieve that this figure will be greatly ex-
ceeded this year.
The prosperity of the American farmer
and the favorable crop outlook are TN
portant factors in this development.
Farmers in practically every section of
the country are getting high prices and
they are optimistic about the future.

II believe the boom we are experience

DUTY OF THE THEATEREGoER
The Character and Its Actor Should be
Considered ADart

one OF the HIST duties OF an lnltll-
gent spectator at a play is to discrimi-
nate in all cases between the charac-
ter and the impersonation of It by
the actor, to endoaVOr to visualize
that character in terms of the au-
thor's intention, divorced entirely
from the personality of the player.
Only by doing this can the actors
performance be fairly judged, and
only by doing this can the author be
fairly Judged. In the case Of Hamlet
or Sir Peter Tcazle the task is easy;
in the case of any character in n new
play, the task is extremely difficult,
and the more striking the personality
of the player, the more difficult il
becomes. Yet intelligent and dis
eliminating thctrCgOing demands that
the attempt be made. OF course, It
has to he made by professional critics,
and the inability of most of us to
perform the feat successfully I'm any
large majority Of cases shows either
that the task is pretty hard or the
calibcr Of us critics is pretty low
perhaps both!
One Of the best means Of arriving
at the dramatist's own conception, Of
course, is to read the text Of his play
either before or after. seeing it acted.
The arguments for printing plays are
many, but TINS Is one or the SlItnR-
est. A general reading OF plays
makes for a better understanding Of
the dramatists work, and for bet
ter and more discriminating appre-
ication of the art Of acting read
ing Of Barrie's "The Will" for in
stance. shows how extraordinarily
Just and fine was Mr.. Drew's per-
formance.
A reading Of many another play,
were the majority of good plays
available in print in America, as they
are in France, would show us how far
certain actors have failed to interpret
their parts correctly, or even, in many
cases how hasty stage management
has failed to create the necessary IL
lusion for what the text shows to be
a worthy and interesting work.
In short, the drama, because Il calls
for the cooperation of various artists
before achieving its final effect is n
complex, and we in judging It fairly
must always bear this in mind, and
must to the best of our ability dis
criminate between the various ele-
ments in the appeal Only when we
do this, only when audiences are thus
alert and intelligent, can the various
arts Of the theatre each gain it's
rightful recognition and combine
most effectively for the highest de-
velopment Of our stase.-American.

WHY THE LAND ISN'T USED.
Secretary Lane Arraigns Investors
Who Raise only Prices on Farms.

Secretary Lane ArTaigns Investors
Who Raise Only Prices on Farms.
According TO the department of ag-
riculture only q per cent of tllabla
land in the United States is under cul-
tiyatiOn. For every 100 acres that al
now cultivated about three hundred
and scyenty-fiye acres will be titled
when the country is fully settled up.
Why isn't ii more settled? The secre-
tary of the interior, Franklin X. Lane,
says in Successful Farming:
There is unfortunately a class Of in
vestors, a few i'm number, it is true,
who are holding areas of considerable
size, including lands for which water
has been provided at the cost Of tho
project, and who are living in cities or
remote localities. Many of these are
not cultivating the ground, or, If using
it at all, only i'm the most perfunctory
manner. With these are to be Classed
certain spectators or dealers in real
estate who have purchases lands at
low prices or have obtained relnquish-
mcnts, due 10 the inability of the
former owners to retain the land and
who are holding these lands out Of use
in the hope Of obtaining a profit by
raising the prices rather than by rais-
ing crops
Tho result is that in the midst Of a
tract of highly cultivated small farms
there is occasionally a section or quar-
ter section of land which has been left
untouched, or perhaps merely plowed
up at some time and which has now
grown up to weeds and serves as a ref
ugc for jack rabbits and various kinds
Of vcrmin. weed seeds are blown from
these fields and infest the neighboring
cultivated land, the presence of these
deserted areas is not only an eyesore
but direct financial injury to all OF
the noighbOrs.
The owners Of these lands are en-
deavoring 10 make a profit largely out
of the labOrs of the owners of the sur
rounding lands who, through their toll
in the field, are gradually increasing
land values in the vicinity. In other
words, they are not only freely enjoy
ing the bounty Of the government in
providing water for the land, but in
like way are indirectly levying a toll
upon the labor and self-denial of their
neighbors
No one can argue that these men
should have the benefit Of extension Of
time in making payment, as through
such benefits II will enable them to
hold these lands still logger out OF
cultivation, advance of prices, increase
the load on the newcomer, and further
delay the ultimate development of the
community and its successful growth.
The injury to the community and TO
the state lies not wholly in keeping
these lands out Of profitable use. but
also by not permitting the rapid
growth OF resident population. BY
keeping away many desirable citizens
the burden of pioneering laid upon the
remainder is increased notably in the
schools, and in all the local institutions
so necessary to a growing community.
