These streets have rendered remark

as we go or borrow Is a matter which
the people must decide. 1t Is need
less to spoint out the length Of time
required under our present tax rate
10 complete the necessary improve
ments within this city and on the belt
road II the pay as yon go plan is
adopted II is trne that the cost per
mile for improvements would be less
under this system by the amount Of
interest which must be paid on bonds
issued for road construction. The
public, however. Is crying for imme-
diate improvement and the only way
in which this demand may be met is
by the issuance Of bonds or by q
special tax We cannot, under any
system. expect Improvements without
paying for them.
Revenues Inadequate.
That the revenues provided under
the present tax rate are altogether
inadequate to meet the situation is
very clearly shown by the present lack
of good roads The tax law under
which the city and county derives its
income fixes the rate for city and coun-
ty purposes at % OF per cent. This
rate has remained fixed since the be-
ginning Of county government. Al
though the expenses of government
have increased steadily each year the
income has not increased in due pro-
portion On account of the limitations
of the tax law. Al review Of the city
and county auditors records will
show this increase In expense to be.
three times the increase In revenue.
Out of % Of per cent is set aside
1-6 of ! per cent for q permanent inn
provement fund, the remaining IL of:
] per cent going to the general fund.
Out Of this general fund come the sal
aries of all elective officers. the courts.
police and fire protection. donations,
sanitation and health. parks and play-
grounds, streets and roads, the Ha-
Waiian band and numerous miscella-
neOus items. There was spent out Of.
the general fund for the maintenance
Of roads and streets In 1915 the sum
Of $201 ,417.00 with $79,444.00 addition
al out of the special road tax fund.
Assuming 900 miles Of roads and
streets as being subject to repair on
this island the maintenance cost per
mile runs in the neighborhCod Of
100000. This fset alone should be-
argument for rec0nstruction,
In order that we may have roads and
streets which are economical to main.

During the past week a musical
event of more than ordinary interest
was the recital given by violinist of
international reputation-Mr. Arthur

the principal feature of his program
the E Minor Concerto of Nardini, but
he also played four groups of smaller
numbers, one of these consisting of his
own prescriptions. Mr.. Hartmanns
art is founded on profound musical
understanding, hence beauty of tone,
solid and resourceful technic and
poetic Interpretation are never failing.
Not the least enjoyable number of
the program was the Cradle Song,
composed by the player, which proves
his right to be classed among the
first of the present day composers.

MARY.,s LAMB.

"Mary's Lamb" next weeks offering
at the Shubert, was APPLY character
lied by one New York City reviewer
as "a musical gambol in three beats"
and is probably the most successful
Qf all recent musical comedies. For
several years Richard earle, Ameri-
cas- foremost eccentric comedian.
starred in "Mary's Lamb" and, from
coast to coast, left behind him one
long, continuous peal of laughter.
Minneapolis theater-goers will recall
Raymond Crane, the popular comedian
of the new cambridge Light Opera
Company, as the much abused, mild
hammered and hen-pecked husband in
"A Modern Eve" and Leander Lamb,
which Mr.. Crane will play next week,
is similarly afflicted person. Mary
Lamb is sef-assertive. dominating and
compelling and compels Leander to do
as Mother bids" For a time the
obeying husband does as mother or.
ders, but one day, like the worm in the
fable, Leander turned, and Jared forth
rampant, henceforth to run the place
after fashion distinctively his own.
Naturally, as Mr.. earle himself not
only wrote "Mary's Lamb" but com
posed the lyrics and music, the part
OF Leander Lamb is some role"
That there is similarity of method
between the two comedians, Shubert
admirers of Mr.. Crane insist all of
which guarantees an interesting and
entertaining performance of the COM
edy. There are also in "Mary's Lamb"
good parts for all of the Shubert prin-
cipals, with any number of catchy,
whistling melodies, sung by Florence
Weber, Henry Coote, Jack Boyle,
Mary Kilcoyne, Peter Macarthur and
Edward Smith and Billy Young and
Eulalie Young have a couple of snappy
singing and dancing numbers. AS in
all Carrie shows, the young women of
the chorus wear pretty gowns and play
an important part in the production.
