New Road Districts
Made Of Each Town
by the County Court

The Marion County Court in eompli-
ance with section "a, chapter 299 of
the session laws of 1917 mas set aside
each incorporated city or town in a
separate road district. Heretofore
many such towns were in road districts
including territory outside their bound
aries, which complicated the matter of
taxes. Under the new arrangement
each city or town is road district, but
it is subject to the law quoted above,
which provides that the county court
may levy a tax of not to exceed ten
mills for road purposes, 20 per cent of
which remains in the district and 80 per
cent to be used in the county at large
as the court may direct. The new dis
tricts under this arrangement are II,

Italian Army Is
Fighting FuriOusI!!

Washington, Oct. 20 Kaiser Viii
helm will join Emperor Karl of Austria
tonight on the Austro-German front in
Northern Italy, official cables from
Rome stated late today
At the same time the first eneourag
ing note was struck in reports of the
great battle raging on the Italian plains
when it was stated that the major por-
ton Of the Italian army is fighting
furiously.
Some positions were won and lost q
dozen times before General Cadorna Is
forces yielded ground. Thousands of
German prisoners have been taken, the
cables say.
At least three armies are fortifying
positions along the Tagliam xnto river,
to which Cadorna is now driving his
troops, it was announced.

.ITAi IANS HOLDING
MUCH OF TERRITORY
GAINED DURING YEAR
While Defeat Is Bad Germans
In Danger From Trans
pOrtatiOn Difficulties
(By J. w. T. Mason,
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

kUnlLeQ HreSS oIaII COrfeSponucnJ.J
New York, Oct. 29.-The Austro-Ger-
mans have won their first battle in
their effort to drive Italy out of the
war, but the situation is no more ser
ious for the allied cause than were the
early successes of the Germans when
they attempted to capture Ferdun and
parlyze frances morale.
The German thrust at verdun caught
the French just as the Italians have
been taken unawares by the present
Teutonic offensive. But as the
French were able to hold firm after
the first shock, so may the Italians
maintain their new line when the initial
Teutonic impetus is spent. No such
prolonged offensive can be main
tanned by the AustTo-G Germans in Italy
as the Hohenzollern crown prince con-
tinued against Verdun, because neither
men nor munitions are available in such
numbers and quantities.
This fact is to the advantage of Gem
eral Cadorna, as is also the eireum-
stances that the advance of the Teu-
tons is so bending the battle front as
greatly to shorten it.
The Italians, though losing heavily
in captured men and guns, are now bet
ter able to concentrate their reserves
than when the Austro- German advance
began.
Any superiority in leadership that
Germans may present might be more
than counter balanced by the fact that
the present Teutonic line of communities
tions into Italy is through difficult
mountain country, where fatal delays
may occur. The Teutons have advanced
perhaps ten miles into Italy along a
five mile front. The Italians still hold
five times this area of Austrian terri
tory to the west and south of Goritzia.
Serious the situation undoubtedly is,
but there is no reason yet for extreme
pessimism.

FAIR and WARNER
COMING SOON

Just ten years ago q pathetic look

Express in Jersey City. He was the
tallest thing you ever saw, blonde,
pale and disconsolate and unknown.
He Immediately invested the savings
of hard years as reporter on the

made four carbon copies Of q play he
had brought with him. He sent 1t to
four managers at once. Brady got it
because he telegraphed his accept
ance, while the three other waited to
write theirs The play was Clothes,
the author Avery Hopwood. Oh yes,
such things do happen. You can
verify this from Hopwood any night
you can catch him in at The Lambs.
He Is still tall but no longer quite so
pathetic. Clothes" made money for
everybody connected with Ii, even to
the author. His share of the loot he
spent In doing the gentleman adven-
turer act all over the market from
Paris to Wiessnichwo, buying himself
learning and experience. Also
"Clotlx'' first introduced him to Grace
George. They dance together divinely
now and make d wonderful pair. both
so blond and slim and straight. His
Seven Days" lin collaboration was
the first year-run type OF farce. Now
when he sends in farce. such as
"Falr and Warmer" which comes to

nature, reaches for contract blank

ment Hopwood's greatest claim to
dramaturgic consideration is his abil-
itv To construct quick stepping anus
ing farces without using the eternal
triangle as his theme. While not
written necessarily for children. they
still move in a healthy atmosphere.
The characters are always likeable.
Avery Hopwood is an influencing fig
ure in a decade which has practically
freed the American theater from the
nasty French farce.

Broadway was concerned. That was
several years ago. The play started
through the provinces. Its departure
from New York marked the beginning
OF one of the greatest triumphs in
modern stage annals. The play has

acted in every modern capital. The
Chinese minister went to see 1t in
London. and 1t made him so homesick
that he almost resigned his position.
Underneath the conventions OF the
Chinese stage, which make the play
irrepresslbly humorous in western
eyes, there is beauty and a truth
about the story and It's character
which lifts 1t far beyond satire.
So, finally "The Yellow Jacket" went

Broadway consented to take a look.

Schwab Tells About PROFIT sharing.

Charles M. Schwab has written an ar
ticle called My 10000 Partners for the
December American Magazine. in
which he explains his system of profit
sharing which is in use in the shops at
Bethlehem. He says:
Take the case of a mechanic: He IL
given q certain piece of work, and he
knows that the allotted time for doing
this work is, say twenty hours Per-
haps he has q regular wage OF 40 cents
an hour, irrespective of his production.
IL he finishes the job in the allotted
twenty hours. he gets a bonus of 20
per cent, bringing his total pay for the
work up to $3.50. But IL he does the
work in twelve hours. he still receives
the $3.50. and is ready forthwith to
tackle another piece of work. In 9TH
err words, the man gets bonus pay for
the Job on the basis of the entire sched-
ule time, regardless of the actual time
1t takes him to do 1t.
Amy short cuts a man may devise or
any unusual energy he may show are
thus capitalized into profit for him.
With this stimulus, our men are al
ways giving their best efforts to their
work, and the result has been that the
production per man in some depart
ments has more than doubled since the
plan was put into effect"
