Present a Real Musical Treat at the
Auditorium Monday Night.


After a little over two weeks Of
hard work and careful study the cost
Of "Pinafore" is ready for The per-
formance at the Auditorium next Mon
day night. The members of the Choir
us have been praticing faithfully dur
ing their spare time every day and the
improvement Of their work has been
noticeable.
Mr.. Robinson, the director, has done
the impossible. He has made those
sing who cant sing" and has de-
veloped a chorus that will be a credit
to his efforts. The soloists are very
well fitted to their parts and some
excellent comedy as we'll as singing
is the result Of careful casting.
"Pinafore," is travesty on the
British navy Of fifty years ago. and
was written by those great cOllabora-
tors. Gilbert and sullivan. whose com
ic opera are the most popular ever
produced on the stage The names
of "Pooh-Bah' and Ko-KO' from the
opera "Mikado." and "Rurtercup' and
Dick Deadeye" from "Pinafore" have
become familiar 10 every lover OF
musical comedy and quotations from
these operas are household words
where the English language is spOk
en- and sung.
Many a laugh is in store for the
audience. as every character is a car
feature. The pompous admiral admits
that all he knows IN regards to

torney's firm, but he liked that kind
of a ship" so we'll that ne now is oc-
cupying the highest rank in the Brit
ish navy, and proceeds to bully the
captain and give pointers TO the real
sailors on the way they should con-
duct themselves
Dick Deadeye, the silly sailor, is al
ways "butting in" and causing the
boatswain more real trouble than all
the rest OF the crew. The love affair
of Josephine. the captains daughter.
and Ralph Rackstraw. the common
sailor who. later is promoted 10 the
rank Of captain of the ship furnishes
the story around which the opera is
built
The music is the kind YOU Yin

RUN AUTO FLOWS
Maimed Soldiers of France Are
 Trained in New Work.
Schools Established to Enable Farm CTS to Take Up Their Old
 Profession Again.

What is called "Motor Culture' school has been established at Cha pelle- -Saint-Luc. just outside of Troyes. It inaugurates a new era in French az riculture.
 Fifty army nurses of the older classes are there, teaching maimed sol dierS to run automobile blows and oth- CT traction implements of every sort. In four crews the pupils, in turn, drive the tractors in the field, learn repair work at the forge and the prin- ciple of the motor in series of lee lures. As soon as they are able to repair broken part as we'll as drive motor efficiently, they are placed at the disposal of the mechanical culti vating commission and assigned to one of the farming centers that has been provided with motor implements for the common use of the farmers of the neighborhood.
 This is only one of a number of similar schools in France. At Ondes, 1 Bordeaux, Grenoble, Grignon and Noisy le Grand, also, maimed farm CTS and farm laborers who comprise 60 per cent of the total of soldiers who have suffered amputation are being re- trained for the new method of farm ing.
 The purpose is to prepare the mu- tilated soldiers to take up their old professions, if possible, or another if physical disability prevents. Tho aynQriopco of tho cnhool af Chapelle-Saint-Luc tends to show that the use of tools appropriate to work that interests the patient is far more effective In relieving and curing anklyosis, due to wounds, than any of the special mechanical appliances. Many mechanic who dreamed of country life before the war Is Timber ing up his muscles in learning to handle farm implements; on the other hand, many farmer who had lost interest in his calling is losing the stiffness of his joints by the manipu- lation of tools of the cabinet maker and mechanic.
 Basketmaking is a favorite trade adopted on the edge of the Champagne wine country, where the great demand for champagne baskets keeps these war apprentices busy. Locksmiths, tinsmiths horseshoers, blacksmiths and shoemakers also are turned out by these establishments.
