A SHOPPING QUESTION.

From habit long established, we
Ask only: "Do we like the shop7
Have they been courteous to me?

When often we should rather say:
do / act fairly when / buy?
Are statesmen glad when / go way ?
What sort of customer am ?"
We stubbornly demand that all

Shall in our presence PROSTATE fall
And beat their heads upon the floor.
They must be gentlemanly, or
Most ladylike when we come by.
Here's what we should be anxious
for:
"What sort of customer am II"
We who are snobbish look upon
Salespeople as a bit below
Our social level. When we're gone
The folks who served US often
know
The teeter tipped the other way
The lady sells, the rude ones buy!
So ask the question day by day:
"What sort of customer am II"
A deal is not, as some folks deem
An act of charity IL which
The buyer aids a clever scheme
To make the crafty seller rich.
The honest trade serves both alike
The dealer and the ones who buy.
Suppose all merchants went on

Cadorna's Complaints About Weather Seem
 To Be Well Justified

Berlin, March il. Almost since beginning, of the war between Aus tria and Italy, every paper in Austria Hungary and Germany has daily made as much fun as possible of the reports ma. His so-caIled ''weather reports or the Italian chief, General Cador- have become the target for every car tooniSt in the central empires, who has portrayed him so often under an umbrella that the joke has been worn tbreadbare. ''Cadorna eports Snow Its Raining Down Cadorna's Way" 'fCadorna RepOrts-Bad Weather" and half a dozen other headings of a similar nature seem to be kept stand ing in type in most newspaper offices.
 Now, however, the Berliner Tage- bIatt declares seriously that the terri tory in which Cadornas armies are operating is the most "weather-visit- ed' in all Europe, and that it about holds the record for rain if not snow falls. The Tageb1att bases it's state ments on the results of meteorological investi gations in the neighborhood of the Bay of Cattaro.
 With the exception of the hills which overhang the bay, according to the investigations, the whole Knives tijo district up to the Dobrestica-Ra- dostar and Dukanja, heights are deep ly covered with snow in winter time so that troops in order to move in any

EMPIRE

A striking contrast of the manhood Of the East and of the West is strong 1y pictured in Ben BIair," the Pa1las production at Keeney's Empire the atre on the Paramount program, to- day and tomorrow.
 In the scene where Ben, the unpol- 1shed Westerner, goes to force an is- sue with Sidwell, the society favorite who has supp1anted him in Florence winthrop's favor the two American types are exemplified. Blair finds Sidwen drinking heavily with congen- ia1 friends and on their departure his Western blood forces him to say you're the only obstacle between me and the woman love- Gan you tell me any reason why shouldn't remove that obstac1e?" But his Western blood also makes him bow to the seeming truth in Sidwe1Ts answer Yes, a good reason-she loves me and she doesn't t love you.''
 Cooler thoughts and past mem ories later make him doubt this state ment. He goes to F'lorence's father with a plan that awakens the ex- plainsman's admiration and support and brings this strong Western drama to a successful finish.
 An all feature photop1ay program of Universad subjects will also be shown.

JUVENILE CRIME
 INCREASES FOUR
 FOLD IN GERMANY
Fathers at the Front, Chil- dren Play and Are Hailed
 Before the Courts

Berlin, March 11.-Juvenile crime and misdemeanor have increased three and four fold in nearly all cit ies of Germany since the beginning of the war, according to the societies which specialize in the care of chil- dren.
 The absence of fathers at the front, the frequent inability of mothers to oversee their children because they now have to work to support the family, and the increased amount of spending money which boys and girls have-due to employment ordinarily not open to them-are given as the chief causes.
 The facts have come as a surprise to juvenile experts. They had al- ways held that the mother was the chief disciplinary factor in the house. hold They now are constrained to change their opinions and to feel that 1t has beep the father, after all, who has made the children toe the line.
 The war, with it's accounts of bat ties and shooting, has inspired count less boys with the desire to have wea- pons of their own, and in many in stances they have been able to se- cure them. Little groups or gangs have formed in most of the great cit ies of Germany, have made unoccu- pied cellers their headquarters, and from mock battles have graduated in to actual burglary in many instances. Many more boys have comparatively lucrative employment at present than they ever had before, and consequent 1y have an unprecedented amount of money with which to purchase what they want-including fire arms. Many others, not employed, but desirous of the weapons just the same, have re- sorted to crime to get money with which to purchase them.
 The contraction of school facilities has also had an effect in increasing delinquency. In Berlin, for instance, about one-third of the school houses have been emptied of pupils and put to military uses-as hospitals and the like. The consequence has been that classes have been crowded in the re- maining schools, school hours have been materially shortened, and fe-
 male teachers have had to be employ ed. The average boy and girl has suddenly found him or herself with an increased number of leisure hours generally without restraining father to chastise them for rnisdeme eanors, and often without a mother as a sub- stitute. The situation has been com plicated further by the arrival in Ger
 man cities of a large number of chill dren from East Prussia-fugitive driven from their homes by the Rus sian invasion.
 The shortage of workers in most branches of trade throughout Ger many has led to the employment of children long before they ought to go to work, and it has put into chiIdren's hands sums of money that a dt- rect temptation to vice and crime.
 Many lads of 10, 12 and 15 years now are entrusted as messengers with large sums of money, and in conse- quence, in some cases, embezzle- ments and theftS have resulted. It is almost a, weekly occurrence to read in the newspa pers of the flight or the capture, of some youthfUld criminal

LYRIC

Tonight, at The Lyric, Cecil Spoon CT and her company will present, for the first time at The Lyric scale of prices, George M Cohan's most bril- liant comedy, which goes under the to Baldpate.'' For close to two years this play ran at the Astor theatre, New York, to capacity attendance, as well as holding record runs in all the principal cities of the country. ''Sev- en Keys to Ba1dpate,' has been class ed as the best example of "Cohan- esque" writing, and surely has de- nnonstrated the fact that young MT. Cohan is the prolific author of the brilliantly compressed into two acts, is aptly termed farce of mystery and n1irth, and such it is throughout its great big two acts. The scene of action occurs at the quaint, mysteri- ous, Baldpate Inn, wherein there is a wager laid to the quick writing of a new novel. Incidentally, there are various scenes, characters and in ctdents, all of which are brand new to the stage and of the highest Conan brand. As E'Myra,'' Miss Spooner will have a part which will fit the popular little star perfectly, in fact, the entire company of favorites will have parts which will exactly fit their individual special talents. Seven Keys to Bald pate'' is to receive a special scenic production, extraordinary in every de- tail.

WEST END THEATRE

t"The Trail of the Lonesome Pine," in which Charlotte Walker is to ap- pear in her famous role of "June" at the West End theatre tonight, is one of the most recent and best Lasky productions and is staged under the personal direction of Cecil B. De Mile, director general, who has maintained throughout the picture the wonderful atmosphere of the Cumberland noun tains and the peculiar characteristics of the mountaineers of that remote region.
 The story has to do with the love between the beautiful daughter of the leader of the illegal whislzey makers and a young revenue officer who has been sent to the mountains to secure the arrest of the father.

The story is a remarkable one with scenes laid in the mythical countries of Boithalia and Marsow and 1t is highly interesting from start to finish. The role of the Countess Olga affords Miss Barriscale excep- tiona1 opportunities for the display of her wonderful emotional powers and she is ably supported by a compe- tent cast. The scenes are exceeding ly beautiful and the picture is pro duced in five parts.
