The experiment of the Simmons COM
pany is attracting attention all over the
country. Men who are forced to meet
the same conditions in regard TO en-
ployment and housing of laboreFs are
coming to the camp every day to see
how the Kenosha company has worked
out the plan. They are enthusiastic
over it. It is pretty certain that as a
result Of the success of Simmons Camp
that there will be other camps of the
same kind worked cut for Kenosha be-
fore tie summer is over.
The details Of the camp are worked
out by company which does nothing
but take care of lerge companies Of
workmen. These men have been in
structed that the camp in Kenosha must
be maintained at the highest standard
possible and they are carrying out
these instructions.

'igan in summer. Right ii the middle
of this beautiful spot, twelve acres have
ben set off for the new " White City,
of Kenosha. Here the Workmen from
the Simmons company have had their
tents pitched for them. Like a camp
ing place of a regiment the tents are
placed on the high bank overlooking
the lake. It is a model city in every
way, made up of some thirty tents
Not the kind Of tents that one sees out
along the inland lakes, but home tents
with all the comforts of some homes,
and a lot more than most homes have.
There are avenues and lanes, with bic
trees on either side of them. There is
q real play ground for the men who
work. just a run down the bank and
they launch the boats into Lake Michi-
gan. Just a run off the pier and they
have the most invigorating bath

The tents are large, % feet long, and
II feet wide. They have maple floors
in them and electric lights, and the
pesky mosquitoes which might bother
under ordinary circumstances, are kept
out by screens. Every tent is screened
SO as to keep it free from flies and
mosquitoes. In each tent, single beds
have been placed for eight Of the in
habitants Of Simmons Camp and al
ready PA men are comfortably housed
in them.
An army of employees are in charge
of the sleeping quarters of the men and

Twice every week all the linen of the

floor of every tent is washed and clean

Simmons Camp is a regular town. It
has its central eating house, its club
rooms, sanitary toilet rooms, and offices
for the men who are in charge of the
many activities. The only thing that
it does not have, is a woman. Simmons
Camp is man s 'spotless town.
Dropping back from the avenue
which runs from one end Of the town
to the other, you come to the business
street. Right on the principal corner
is the great mess house. It is 1875 feet
long and "a feet wide. This is no Iun-
Der camp mess, but If has the appear

offered day. by day is like real mod

rooms and the other is the sanitary
kitchen. Tt is in charge of two chefs
who have nothing to do but see that the
men who I'VE at Simmons Camp are fed.
The social side Of life is not forgotten
among the men. There is a real club
room over there. It is 20 by SO feet

some Of the men gather after work is
over and sing; there is a talking ma
chine humming away a couple Of hours
every night, and over IN one corner
there is a reading room and library.
The equipment is just as good as can
be found in any club.
Life at Simmons Camp is pleasing.
The men have their boats and their
fishing tackle, and when work is over
they 60 boating out on the lake, or fish
fer perch off the beach. There is some
thing to attract every taste. Right
now Simmons Camp is the most popu-
lous place in the city OF Kenosha. The
two hundred and twenty-four men who
make up its population are not foreign
born. Every one of them was born in
America, and most Of them in Wiscon-
sin. A census Of the men showed that

1t takes ingenuity these days to keep
up with prosperity. Men who operate
big industries have found that it is
easy enough to sell things, but lot
harder to make things enough to meet
the demand. Kenosha as an industrial
city ranks right up in the front rank
and prosperity has meant something
for Kenosha. With factory chimneys
bullying out smoke at every hour of the
day and night, with the whistle blow
ing only to mark the changing of shifts
of workmen, it has become one of the
big problems of Kenosha to get houses
for homes of the men who are to fill the
places at the benches in the shops, in
the yards, and in the foundries.
With an awakening trade crying ont
for the products of the big plant, the
biggest problem has been to get men
and places for men and their families
to live in. And at that, Kenosha is
not bad place to work in. The facts
of the case are, that statistics show
that the average wage in Kenosha, is
second If the United States.
There is one sea board city where
plants are given up almost entirely to
the making of ammunition, where high
er wages are paid than are paid in Ke-
nosha, but it's a long way to the At
1antic ea-board and Kenosha's appeal
for labor is being heard and answered
by high grade men.
Like lot Of other cities, Kenosha
finds her hardest problem in taking care

Bargus means to marry Emily to the earl and thus keep him in the family. But Cynthia, now a widow and very att tractive, comes upon the scene. She is down in her luck and the earl engages her as his secretary after, purchasing the string of pearls the only thing her hus- band left her. This doesn't please Mrs. Bargus and she and her daughter plan to get rid of her. To do this they ac- cuse Cynthia of knowing that the pearls are shams and of having stolen a bank note. This is one of the most interesting and absorbing situations in the play and it is handled with skill. Of course. all comes out right in the end. There is another love affair between the precious young ward of the earl and the latter's private secretary. The closing act is filled with comedy and suspense.
 pr. Drew is said to play the role of the earl in his accustomed finished manner and to give the authors lines their full value Laura Hope Crews will be the Cynthia; Thais Lawton the Emily, and Katherine Stewart the Mrs. Bargus. As the earl's young ward Consuela Bailey has diverting role. George Graham and Vaughan Trevor are also in the cast.

 programme of surpassing variety and richness will be presented at night feature of that occasion will be the singing of Madame Chilson- Ohrman, a
 celebrity, who is in popular vogue this season. She is one of the few really great artists now on the con cert stage
 The orchestral numbers on the night programme are Weber's Der Frei- schuetz'' overture, Tschaikowskys Symphony No. 4 the lovely inter- mezzo, "Winter Starlight" from Mas sanet's opera, "Walther'' (duet for harp and violoncello); Graineer's shepherd Hey; Richard Strauss tone poem, Don Juan,' and Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. ?.
 Although Der Freischuetz" overture was a great favorite with concertgoers tie heard in recent years-never in Birmingham It is full of melody.
 The following is reproduced from the Minneapolis orchestra programme book:.
 Carl Maria von Weber, the German composer (17S6-1S26), is often called the father of modern opera. Der Freischuetz' CThe Free Huntsman), /, commonly ranked as the greatest of his operas, was first produced in Der lin, June IS, 1921. The story is founded on a German tradition, told among huntsmen, that whoever will sell his soul to Zamiel. the demon hunter may receive seven magic bullets, which will always hit the mark. For each victim whom he succeeds in securing for the demon, his own life Is extended, and he receives a fresh supply of the charmed missiles. The overture pre- sents the story of the opera in con densed form.
 "An impressive Adagio opc.,tng of the overture is followed by beautiful horn quartet which does not appear in the opera, and seems to have no connection with it, though some have thought it is intended to signify the
