THE MELTING POT, WALKER
WHITESIDE
Gods Crucible, in which the
races of the world, with their
blood feuds and antagonisms
are being melted and amaIga-
mated to produce a finer pro-
duct, this is Israel Zangwill's
conception of America which he
weaves into a powerful drama
which grips us with its magni-
ficent, patriotic appeal.
David, the hero, is at once
strong, pathetic and touching,
voiclng the thought that cam
erica is a land where God will
wipe away the tears from off
all faces"
The dramatic incident of the
play is the unfoldment of a love
story as powerful as it is un-
usual.
Arthur Kochel is a reader of
national reputation and has al
ways given the very best Of
satisfaction where ever he has
been. Come out and hear him

Anticlimax.

Anticiimax.
Alan came to himself supported by
Barcus-his senses still Keeling from
the conclusion of that thunderbolt
which he had so unwittingly loosed-
the cloud of sulphurous smoke and yet
dissipated by the wind
Judith lay at his feet, stunned; and
round about other figures of men in
sensible, if not, for all he could say,
dead
And then Barcus was hustling him
unceremoniously down the wharf
Come! Comet" he rallied Alan.
"Pull yourself together and keep a
stiff upper lip. Rose is waiting in
the car, and if you don't want to be
arrested you'll stir your stumps, my
son! That explosion is going to bring
the worthy burghers of New Bedford
buZzing round our ears like a swarm
Of hornets!'
His prediction was justified even
before it was made; already the near
by dwellings were vomiting half
clothed humanity; already score of
people were galloping down toward
the head of the wharf; and in their
number a policeman appeared as if by
magic.
And while the man hesitated Alan
grabbed him by the shoulder, threw
him bodily from the car, dropped into
his seat, cried a warning to Rose, and
threw in the clutch The machine re-
sponded without jar; they were a
hundred feet distant frem the scene
of the accident before Alan was fairly
settled in his place
AS he grew more and more calm, he
congratulated himself on having drawn
an excellent car in the lottery OF
chance. It was light, but the motor
ran famously, and if not capable OF
q racing pace it would serve his ends
as speedily as was consistent with
reasonable care for the life of the
woman he loved.
Yet his congratulations were prema-
ture; they were not ten minutes out
OF the environs OF the city when Rose
left her seat and knelt behind his, to
communicate the intelligence that
they were already being pursued

turned with no less craft-open IN
creduiity informing his countenance.
And, surely enough, Alan brought
forth an empty hand.
MAKE q light" he said sharply. my
moneys in belt round my waist.
Open your office. You'll get your dol
lar, all right"
'All right" he grumbied, reopening
the door OF the telegraph booth and
making a second light inside. There's
blanks and pencil. Write your mes.
sage. 1t amt often do this--but I'll
make an exception for you"
Alan delayed long enough only to
make a few inquiries, drawing out
the information that, for one who had
not patience to walt the morning
train northbound, the quickest way
to any city of Importance was by boat
across Buzzard's bay to New Bedford
Boats, it was implied, were plenti
full, readily to be chartered.
A timetable supplied all other need
full advice. Alan wrote his message
swiftly.
Addressed to Digby, his man OF
business in New York, it required that
gentleman to arrange for a motor-col
to be held in waiting on the water
front of New Bedford from 800 q. m
until called for in the name Of Mr.
Law, as we'll as for special train a.
Providence, on similar provisions.
But now, though he was all uncon-
Bcfous of TIE fact, he went no more
alone.
His shadow in the moonlight kept
him company upon the sands; and
above, On the edge Of the bluffs, an
other shadow moved on parallel
course and at a pace sedulously pat
termed after his.
He found his sweetheart and his
friend much as he had left them, with
this difference-that Mr. Barcus now
lay fat on his back and snoring
Justify.
He was wakened quickly enough,
however, by Alans news.
But when it was the turn of Rose
they faltered. She lay SO still, be-
'trayed her exhaustion so patiently in
every line Of her unconscious posture,
as well as in the sharp palior of her
face upturned to the moon, that it
seemed scarcely less than downright
inhumanity TO disturb her.
None the less, it had to be done
Alan hardened his heart with the re.
minder of their urgent necessity. and
