AMUSEMENT NOTES
Edward Peple an Author of Many Sue
ceSses.

Edward Peple, the author of "a Pail
of Skies" who now enjoys the distinc
tion of having written the biggest farce
hit of the century, has other successful
plays to his credit among which nigh,
be mentioned that charming comedy
"The Prince Cap" and the sterling mel,
odrama, "The Littlest Rebel" This
American authors ability to write three
plays so distinct, different and of such
distinguished merit, has been the SUBJ
ject of much wonderment and newspaper
comment.
"A Pair of Skies" is as thoroughly
American in topic and treatment as it
is in title. The story is most ingenious
in its basis and development, and a
factor greatly to its credit is that it is
good, clean. wholesome fun, the kind of
humor that men can discuss freely, not
only with their own women folks, but
with the women folks of others.
"A Pair of Skies" sounds like very
small hand, but it will take mighty
good combination to beat it. This is
doubtless partly accounted for by the
fact that there is an addition to the pair,
a queen of hearts, in the play, which is
sufficient intimation that the play is
not only funny but has strong love
interest.
The play viii be presented in this
city at the Barre opera house on Thurs
day night, February 3.-adv.

When Gasoline Runs Low.

In Farm and Fireside is an ingenious
suggestion for autoists whose gasoline
has run so low that they have trouble
in hill climbing.
One sometimes is caught out with a
low supply Of gasoline through having
to make long detours TO avoid bad
roads or from OTTER causes. The sup
ply can be made to stretch over this
emergency by adding denatured alco-
hol or kerosene. Occasionally there is
sufficient gasoline for the ordinary lev
Ell road. but not enough for an unex-
pected hill.
In this case the principle OF pressure
feed can be applied. Screw the cap
down tight on the gasoline tank and
then sharpen a match to NJ the VENT
lating hole in the CAP. Blow into this
hole as hard as possible and immedi-
ately plug with a sharPened match.
Usually this win enable the driver to
make the bin without further trouble.

DECIDE Events
FOR BOY SCOUT
TROPHY CONTEST
Duncan Cup 70 Be Competed.
.= For at kailua Camp
r.. Next Month

Scoutmasters G. C. Potter and Rolla
K. Thomas of Troops ! and VI, who
compose the committee In charge Of
the contests for the Duncan Boy Scout
cup, which will be awarded to the
troop having the largest number Of
points in the scouting competition at
the Kailua camp September 40, met
yesterday afternoon at the Y. NJ. C..
A. and decided upon the events in the
competition for the big cup offered by
Mr. Duncan T.
Especial effort was made upon the
part of the committee in charge to
procure events that were related to
scouting and which could be suitable
for tenderfeet, second class and first
class scouts. The events that were
decided upon will probably be the
scout pace, signaling test, first aid,
water. boiling, judging of weights and
distances, tracking or Kim's game.
1t is thought that the scoring will be
the same as last year when each event
was divided into points. the number
100 to each event. Although definite
rules were not laid down at the meet
ing yesterday, it is thought that the
competition in the scout pace will be
made by four representatives from
each troop. signaling will be done
by four representatives. two receivers
and two senders. In the water boiling
contest representatives will be chosen
from each troop by the scoutmasters,
two to be selected from each troop.
-Four scouts will make up each troop
complement in the first aid demon
stration and in the other events the
troops will select boys. Troops are
urged to get into practise for the
events which are coming off at the
big camp next month. H.

LONDON, Eng. August Arthur
j. Balfour. first lord OF the admiralty,
issued 4 formal statement TO the ma
ton through the press last night In
which he declared that the tide had
now definitely turned in favor OF the
Allies, and that the turning point was
the naval battle on the coast OF Jut-
land He pointed out that since the
great sea fight the Allies had reported
n series OF successes, of greater or
lesser importance. on practically ey-
cry battlefield.
He quoted the statements OF diplo.
matists from Entente countries as
supporting his opinion that the war
wave was receding rapidly. and that
the Allies had met the full strength
OF the Teutonic foe and matched II
with their own successfully:
Tide Of War Favorable.
THE tide OF war has begun to fiow
strongly In our favor" says the first
lords statement ct began to dow
for us and against the enemy immedi.
ately after the battle OF Jutland As
always. the sea power has proved the
deciding factor in war. This was true
in spite of the efforts on the part OF
our foes to seize the name Of victory
since they could not have the sub
stance. They are back in their ports
and they are back there. We have ey.
cry reason to believe. so badly shat
tered that Ii will be impossible for
them to assume an important role In
naval warfare again. But the chief
thing is that the German warships
are in port and not at sea. while our
ships continue to. dominate the seas
of the world. Nowhere does the Ger
man flag fly, save in some Teutonie
or neutral port.
Allied Successes Continue.
THAT this has meant much to the
