When Roster MiKei of the eleventh federal reserve district returned to San Francisco after the Liberty loan campaign ended in Arizona, he carried with him a package of Arizona dates from Governor Campbell to James Rolph, mayor of San Francisco. The mayor has just written a letter of thanks to the governor for the dates, having never before tasted of the fresh fruit. In his letter he takes oc- casion to pay the following conmpli- ment to Arizona for its work in Lib erty loan drive: But novel as is this fruit, I prize it chiefly because II comes from you. the governor of the first state to announce its maximum in the Liberty loan drive. the state that generously oyersubscribed the loan and has shown its patriotism to be of the first order wherever the gov ernment has asked for a response from it's people. In this spirit l thank you for your gift and for the generous thought that prompted it, and take the liberty of making it an occasion for sending to you and to your people the best wishes and the sincere compliments of the city of San Francisco"

Laurette Taylor in Happiness Will
have the fourth Of the series of plays
written for her by Mr.. Manners, pro-
dnced by Miss Taylor since the be-
ginning Of last season, when she en-
tered upon what her managers, klaw &
Erlanger and George c. Tyler, prom
ised would be a two years stay in
New York. The other plays, already
presented, were "The Harp Of Life
"Out There" and "The Wooing Of Eve"
"Happincss" was written first by
Nr. Manners as a one-act play, and in
that form Miss Taylor played it once
several years ago at charity matinee
while she was in the midst Of her long
run here in "Pcg o. Ny Heart"
In it Miss Taylor has the role of a
little drcssmaker's apprentice, who,
poor as she is in the so-called good
things Of life. is rich indeed in cour-
age. steadfastness, humor and devo-
ton. The character is a blend Of
whimsical comedy and poignant emo
ton and is quite different from any Of
the others in the repertory Miss Taylor
is building up for herself.

1t Sounds Like Shaw

Nothing about "Why Marry?" the
sparkling comedy at the Astor Thea
tire, has been commented on more fire.
quently than the incisiveness Of the
dialogue. The snap and dash with
which Jesse Lynch Williams makes his
characters discuss the phases and
problems Of marriage was one Of the
things which helped 20 make the play
a hit.
Mr.. Williams turns a searching
light on the institution Of marriage
through the agency Of Uncle Everett,
a genial old judge, who, after twenty
five years Of married life, agrees with
his wife thae-they would be better off
separated. When Uncle Everett drops
into the household of his nieces and
nephews and finds them considerably
upset over the question Of matrimony,
due to the fact that one niece has
made up her mind that it is better to
love a man always than marry him
and cease TO love him soon, Uncle
Everett talks straight out from the
shoulder.
Judge
Quite right, John; every man should
love his wife, too. But a promise
can't make you love-it only makes
you lie.
Theodore "a clergyman cousin
love my home.
John
So do I.
Judge
All right stick to it, if you love it
only don't claim credit for doing
what you enjoy Now, Il detest do
mesticity myself, yet | stuck to it all
the same-for a quarter Of a century
and at last I'm free to tell the truth
about it. Just think of itl-free to
utter those things about marriage we
all know, but don't dare to say. Free
to be honest. John. No longer a hypo-
crite, Theodore, soul set free two
souls, in fact.
Iheodo'e
Stop! You have children TO con-
sider-not merely your own selfish
happiness.
Judge
We did-we did, for quarter Of a
century; sacrificed everything to them
even the truth. even our self-respect;
but now-we are childless now. Two
parents without a single child.
John
without a single child?
Judge
Both married; both left US fol
"little homes" OF their own TO love.
Theodore
All, but don't you want them TO have
+ the dear old home to come back TO?
Judge
"No place like home"-for children.
You're right-can't have too much OF
it. Most children only have one dear
old home. Ours will have two dear
old homes.
Theodore
Seriously, Uncle Everett, "Whom
] God hath Joined together"

Judge

Theodore
A pink parasol.
John
On, stop your fooling and speak the
truth, man.
Judge
The truth? Just what I'm doing
John, but nobody wants or expects
the truth about marriage; that's why
you think Pm foolng. A very pretty
parasol-but it wasn't made in heaven.
You see, God made poor little Julia
pale, but on that fatal day, twenty
five years ago, the pink parasol, not
God, made her rosy and irresistible.

Here is another scene in which John,

ilys greatest ambitions had been real
ized-that little Jean, the youngest
sister, had become engaged to the son

Judge

That's right, John; that's one OF
the first rules of the game. When
at last, after years of watchful walt
ing, we get the properly qualified male
to offer one of our dependent females
a chance at woman's only true career,
we must always throw bluff of not
liking the idea. San principle as
horse trading.
John
You've had experience at this sort
of thing-how I'll work it?
Judge
Oh, perfectly simple. First you say:
young man, you realize what you're
asking?"
John
Then what?
Judge
Tell him it's out of the question;
you and Lucy cannot endure the
thought of giving up the dear child
daughters are awfully dear nowadays
so are sisters-and intimate subtly
that he is not the only bidder in the
market.
John
Well, he isn't. There's nice young
fellow at the Harvard Law School;
we'll connected and all that, but his
father is only a professor.
Judge
That's good; play that up. Then,
after you've thrown a good scare into
him, reluctantly consent and say;
"Be good to her, my boy; be good to
her." with a sad, sweet smile.
