CLUB CALENDAR

The K. P. extravaganza is on, and
has one more evening to go. Many
will enjoy it, because it is going to
be GOOD. Others will attend in order
to afterwards play the much disgust
ed critic. Being disguised with a
show (not necessarily a home talent
production) is the regulation method
of proving ones ownership of long
hard word, "aestheticism." In point
ing out how poor the show was you
have to cite instances of the dramatic
splendors of your past experience,
perhaps in the vast teeming thoro-
fares of life, one might say, in the
metropolis. But for any community

to get tho most out of life there
must be amateur dramatics of some
sort, and it is a chance for home
talent to give others some pleasure,
which if they are not willing to do,
they shouldn't ever have been given
the talent. All praise to those will
ing ones who delight in helping out
the slim portion of amusement in a
small town. And all honor to those
who attend home talent shows and
enjoy them. It Is a sign they are
natural and normal, instead Of itch
ing aesthetics.

Famous Forest Now in Ashes

The wonderful forest Of Tatoi, the pride
OF the late King George Of Greece, was
destroyed when fire reduced to ashes the
summer residence of his son, King Con-
stantine. The tens Of thousands of dol
lars spent in cultivating a Furnishing pine
wood. as an example of what might be
done with forestry in barren Attica. have
been burned up as completely as If the
banknotes themselves had been thrown
in the fire.
Tatoi played large part in the history
OF Greece. Here the Spartans established
themselves in Alb b. c. to cut off tho
supply Of grain and foodstuffs bound into
Athens from Eubea, with the purpose of
starving out the Athenian population.
And in 4oa B. c.. while Lysander block.

The Day Of Atonement

The Day Of Atonement or "Yom
Kippur." the tenth day of the month
of Tishri. begins at sunset Friday, Oc-
tober and ends at sunset Saturday,
October I. The thought underlying
the day is expressed in the scriptural
words "On this day He will atone for
You, to purify you from all your SINS"
1t is day, therefore. of reconciliations
of man with his fellow man and with
God. and comes as a climax to the
holiday season. On New Years Day
Of Judgment of ordinary people. who
had been neither completely righteous
nor utterly sinful was left undecided
and the opportunity was given them
for repentance: now the Day. Judg-
ment Of ordinary people, with the pos
sibility of returning to their God and
of finding reconciliation with him
| through prayer
The Day is the most solemn of all
days N the Jewish calendar 1t is
passed in fasting and prayer The
whole day is spent in the Synagogue.
In the evening there is the service
which commences with the chanting
= t'A> w. hiio"fi IAoi A>luIc pIdyCI
The day proper has four services. OF
these the Mussaf or additional SER
vice contains a description Of the
Atonement rites as practiced in the
ancient days in the Temple at Jeru-
salem; and the Neilah service Is I'M
derstood to be held at the time when
decision is finally made as to mans
fate, and thus the Neilah prayers in
stead of having the usual phrase
'Inscribe us in the book of life," uses
the expression: Seal US in the book
of life"
| According to Jewish tradition ex-
| pressed in an ancient law-book, the
Day Of Atonement. when spent in
| praying and repenting, will bring par
don for sins between man and God !;
but as for the sins committed by man
against his fellow man the Day can
not bring pardon until he has appeased
his fellow man. This idea is the basis
of the effort always made before the
| Day of AtCnement to bring peace be-
tween such friends who have become
estranged and are on unfriendly terms
! with one another and in this way the
| Day will put the worshipper at peace
not only with his Maker but also with
| his fellow man.

play which Arthur Hammerstein will
present at the Empire Theater. Lewis
ton, Oct. Hip. Matinee Thursday

The particular heart interest in

baby hands, the prattle Of childish
voices. To the district attorney whose
wife has borne him no children. the
Joy of his neighbor in his little flock is
a source of constant regret
That the contributing cause Of all
this unhappiness is convicted and faces
a long imprisonment, that several So
ciety leaders are shown up in an I'M
enviable position. all this fails to COM
fort the district attorney whose dreams
of happiness have vanished.

BattIeships Can Send Signals Twelve

Although searcblight signaling be-

communication at sea long before the
introduction of wireless telegraphy, it
is still utilized

SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT.
An Instance In Which Principle Work
ed Well Until Crash Came.


ed Well Until Crash Came.
Too much scientific management
work begins and ends In the factory
This is perhaps natural, as the indus
trial engineer is usually engaged by
the chief executive to standardize man
ufacturing conditions rather than to
educate the higher executives, and It
very often does not occur to those IN
charge Of large corporation that or
ganization administration and selling
are just as subject to certain well de
fined laws and just as capable Of stand
ardization as the factory
One horrible example Is enough to IL
lustrate what may occur when the fac
tory Is regarded as the only field for
predetermined decisions scientifically
reached A number of years ago a con
Germ capitalized at several hundred
thousand dollars engaged some engi-
neers to introduce efficiency methods
into their factory Officials of the com
pany became very much enthuSed over
the work The general manager spent
a great deal of time at the works study
ing the methods. Production went up
by leaps and bounds; the cost of manu-
facture steadily decreased Each month
as the progress made became more no
ticeabe the executives became more
enthusiastic Suddenly, outdlstancing
the widest hopes of even the widest
enthusiast, costs dropped to absolute
zeroI The concern had run out of or
ders, and the works had to shut down!
Occurrences OF this sort fortunately
are not common, but nevertheless in
every business there is a large field
outside the factory to which the princi-
pies Of scientific management can be
applied to great advantage Dwight II.
