bad a prediction FOR folksong. But
there was something more in the fact
because the songs ard ballads in ques-

On the Screen

Those who did not care for Charlie
Chaplin's previous picture, THE lmrni-
grant," are going to revel in his new
one, "The Adventurer,' which Was re-
leased yesterday TO pslpitating public.
AS a matter Of fact, Chaplin never
did anything better than "The Immi-
grant" but there was less of his old
time comedy in IL than in any of his
recent pictures. He had real senti-
mental role, and finally took unto him
self a wife, and every one wondered
whether he would appear from that
time on as a married man.
To those who demand slap-stick COM
edv "The Aoventurer" Will appeal
Charlie never has been funnier than
he is in this new picture, and, TO prove
that he can do II without makeup, he
appears in a costume as scant as that
worn by q Fox star. and proceeds 70

Edna Purviance is the beautiful hero
ine who really believes that Chaplin
Is the famous Commodore Mutt. As a
matter Of fact, he is an escaped con-
Wet, who eludes the police by all of tho
artifces Of which Chaplin is past mas
ter. AS a last resort he takes TO the
water. and here he rescues the mother
of the girl.
He is the hero OF the hour, and, as
suming the name Of Commodore Mutt.

Pigeonhols
idea Prevails

On the Offices Of the Emergency
Shipbuilding Corporation, the pigeon
hole idea prevails. They have fine
system Of taking up your time by
keeping you from seeing the one man
that can tend to the business in
hand. You wait two or three hours,
perhaps, 10 see a craftsman. who has
no authority. You are assigned to
fifteen minutes Of his time. When
the fifteen minutes are up you are
told 10 some back the next day and
Try again.
Perhaps this is the unavoidable
result Of taking up an appalling task
with & new organization. I try 10
be sympathetic and tolerant, but it
IS certainly exasperating to a man
ct large afFairs-this way Of doing
business. If, after a week OF wait
ing, you finally get to see Admiral
Cspps himself you feel all the time
that the door is opening TO let you
nut before it closed 20 let you in.
But you can't help being i'm
pressed by the admiraps wonderful
Grasp Of his business. His capacity
ior work Is nothing less than re-
narksble He has one single pur-
pose IN life, and that is to build ships
rapidly and well They tell me that
ne Is at work at his residence at 5
CLOCK In the morning, and after
once hours Is working there till mid
h'ght His health is not good, and
ne Is giving his life TO the cause as
surely as If he we're standing on top
OF a trench over there, The more
see Of him the better I like him"

"Tt's g little too soon 20 render q

think the beard is now on the right
track. II IS time. Don't be deceived
by statements that the quarrel be-
tween General Goethsls and Mr..
Denman did not seriously delay
progress. It delayed the wooden
ship building programme and it held
back the steel ships. Goethals
blocked the wooden ships and Den
man discouraged the builders Of steel
ships Builders Of both kinds lost
hope and confidence in the board.
"Denman thought he could wave a
wand and bring 8,5OO0O0 tons Of
wood ships out Of thin air. Goethals
thought that every man who pro-
posed to build steel ships was
saint. I understand that the board
is having great difficulty in getting
out Of a S5O,OOO,OOO contract or
promise that Goethals made to a
straw concern
"Where Goethals was careless,
however, 7 think Admiral Capps is
too careful. He is so determined
that the government shall get dol
lar's worth for every dollar that it
spends that he sometimes wastes ten
dollars worth Of time, and in war
time is Of more importance than
money, especially when yos have
plenty Of the latter.
Hurley is Just the other way.
Damn the details, 60 aheadp is his
motto. You can see the difference in
the general aspect Of the two sets Of
Offices. In the Offices Of the board
proper they do things Just as they
DO in big corporations. When q
piece Of business IS taken up it is
disposed Of. When your business Is
up It Is concentrated on.

meet with five independent members
Of the next house in this city next
Tuesday to perfect organization which
will enable them by acting together
to not only dictate organization of the
next house, but to dictate in matters
of organization. This conference was
called by Representative Randall of
California, Prohibitionist, and is the
first intimation that independents re-
gard Miss Rankin as one of their num-
Der. Randall says his object is to
force the house to place Progressives
in charge of all big committees and to
make sure that none but Progressive
legislation is passed by the next house.
Miss Rankin will be unable to at
tend the conference. according to Miss
Belle Fligelman, her secretary. Miss
Rankin will be busy in Montana" said
Miss Fligelman.
