reorganized body now are; Josiah Mar
vcr, presidents the Rev. c. l.. Candee
vice president; l.. l.. Maloney. treasurer
Mrs. Edward r. Mack, secretary
President Marvel announced the chair
men of the several committees who ar,
10 form tine executive committee. but

mttees TO the respective chairmen. The

President Marvel informed the mem
bers that he had invited the Whining
ton members of the ..oard of Trustees
of the Poor 10 attend in order that they
might become fully informed as TO what
was done and what was proposed by the
Associated CharI1ies. lie laid stress
upon the point that it is the desire of
the Associated Charities TO seek the
earnest cooperation of those present at
the meeting of the individuals. lie real
lied that mistakes might be made. and
the board Of managers were anxious TO
hear criticisms and suggestions from
others.
John Evans. trustee OF the poor was
present.
A letter setting forth the aims and
needs of the Associated Charities
was drafted. Il sets forth that the
organization desires union of action.
A copy of this letter will be mailed
to each citizen.
IL is hoped that by the time winter
has come there will be a generous
response to the appeals of the Asso-
ciated Charities and a more general
union of forces-complete harmony OF
action-to accomplish what is neces-
sary in way to secure the best and
most definite results.
There is an effort to help those who
are willing to help themselves get o
hold when they are in temporary need.
( In TACT some OF the most effective
work OF the charities for years has
been to PVT men upon their feet and
re-establish self-respect in both men
and women. That work is not accom-
plished by simply giving money. but
through advice and practical assis
lance.

COLDSMITH'S COMEDY SET
TO music IN Spring MAID

When Goldsmith wrote his famous
comedy "She Stops to Conquer he
little knew that il would reappear
this century in opera. and transported
from an English country house to a
Viennese setting.
"The Spring Maid" the gay modern
opera which Wilmington talent will
present on Friday and Saturday for
Hope Farm, is transposition, done
in the latest and most graceful way,
with music and dancing. In Gold
smiths play there is the same high
born hero. young Marlowe) who
prefers barmaids and peasant girls to
women OF his own class, and the same
spirited girl (Kate Hardcastle) who
determines to beat him with his own
weapons. and conQuers his heart in
the disguise of the bar-maid OF the
inn. The companions of Marlowe
take the place of Rudi and his mill
tary group in the opera. But there
is no one in the play in quite the
charming role of "Annamire," the
real Spring Maid, whose place the
Princess Bozena takes, and thus the
opera. by having two heroines, gains
in fun and charm.
The charm of the story is ever new
The masquerade of the princess, the
desire of the hero TO prove the suberi
ority of the peasant girl with hei
warm blood and high spirits to whai

while at the same time it is an arts

but there is the tragic actor Roland
to balance this loss, while Ursula,
and her detective "Spaetling'' are ex

reflection of his immortal comedy. II

and they fall in love.
Lucille persuades an art dealer to
buy the painting of the Madonna The
artist and the model are married, but
Robert grows cold in his devotion.
Robert meets the Baroness, who comes
TO sit for her portrait. and subse-
quently spends much leisure with her
Later he meets the Baron, her hus-
band. who had known Lucille before
her marriage. Robert comes to keep
an appointment with the Baron at his
house. and finds him lying dead in the
hall. The Baroness accuses him and
he is convicted and sentenced to life
imprisonment.

morrow night at The Playhouse will

this city Of THE Law OF the Land ="
George Broadhursts human drama of
life which had the distinction OF hav-
ing scored the biggest dramatic sue
cess of the New York stage last year
THE Law of the Land" played the en-
tire season at the Forty-eighth Street
Theatre, OUTLYING by many weeks
any drama produced during the the
atrical period Of 1914-15. 1t comes to
this city with an impressive array Of
familiar players headed by Adelaide
French OF the play itself but little
identification is necessary. II has
been one of the most discussed
dramas Of the contemporary stage be-
cause it deals with the primitive emo
lions of the heart. love. jealousy,
hatred and revenge. The heroine is
gentle. sensitive. refined, woman
married to a cold and callous brute
of man. who finds his chief delight
in torturing her. He neglects her
and abuses her and makes her the
hapless victim OF his furious temper.
Inevitably the other man comes along
and then follow complications which
have made THE Law Of the Land
one Of the most thrilling dramas
seen on the stage in years.
