There is also a. queer analogy be-

Of government in America and Eng

scourge of yellow fever in Memphis,
Tenn, due to its poor sanitary system.
The city had incurred debt equal to
its borrowing power and the legisa-
ture, in 1879, established commission
to take charge of its affairs. This was
one Of the first commission plans. In

ENGLAND ADOPTS
AMERICAN PLAN
BY United Press.

London. Jan. 1O+-(By mail)-The
cataclysm of a world war has forced
England to apply real American meth
ods to her government. Lloyd Georges
reorganized cabinet is but a glorified
American city council under commits
sion form Of government.
England, as a nation, was faced with
exactly he same problems that con
fronted hundreds of American cities
before the advent of the Galveston and
Des Moines plans for administering
municipal affairs Great Britain had
a council that was unwieldly; its de-
cisions wer taken after ridiculously
long debates and the mistakes it made
could not be traced to any responsible
source.
Such was the condition of affairs in
Des Moines, Iowa, and other American
cities during the time they labored un.
der the old .ward-council governments.
English people for two years have
watched the government pile one mis-
adventure upon another but the cost
to them was not represented in money
but in the lives of the nations best
men.

SWEET IRISH LASS
 IS PEGGY O'MOORE

The Walter Naylor Players are giv- ing very good. representation of ''Little Peggy O'Moore" if one can judge by the excellent remarks and praises which are heard on every side. The play Little Peggy O'Moore'' has proved exceptionally popular with the Irish people and 1t may almost be said that they have adopted Peggy. It is no wonder that Peggy has endeared herself to these people for Peggy comes from the County Kerry, Ireland, and she brings with her all the natural beauty of Erin. She is just a simple little Irish girl who comes to America to sec what sort of . man her guardian Is. After her arrival an these shores. she finds herself called
 upon to play an important role in some pretty big scenes but she always acquits herself in a way. that does her credit. It may be said. also, that the people like Dan almost as we'll as they do Peggy. Dan is q mayor. who possesses a big hearted disposition and who moves in an unselfish way through four stirring acts which give him every possible opportunity to show what sort of a man he h. little Pegsy O'Moore is, in short a
 play that exerts . vigorous appeal and which is so wholesome that 1t wins the admiration of all those who have grown cautious toward the thea tor and who ordinarily approach a play as they would approach some thing that has. to be handled with care. In all Little Peggy O'Moore''
 is . play we'll worth going to see and will surely end with another feather In the cap of The Walter Naylor Players.

 We Don't Interrupt Conversations.
 We. have been taught from our childhood, that to interrupt when an- other is speaking is the height or Ill manners and the average person does not do that except to people to whom kinship gives him the right to be rude. I have seen husbands and wives who seldom let each other finish a sentence

 Another form of interruption about which several of my letter friends have asked me to speak Is the morn- Ing cali made by the woman with not enough to keep her busy on the wom- an who has plenty to keep her busy twenty-nve hours a day. Many a woman frequently has her whole day upset by q. visitor of this type and does not like to speak out for fear of losing . friendship which. outside of that one thing, she values.

CHICKEN CASEY" MAKES. BIG HIT

No more ample opportunity for versatility was ever afforded an actress than Is given Dorothy Dalton in the New Triangle play, Chicken Casey The young star of the Thomas H. Ince studios appears as an actress who aspires to play the lead ing role in the characterization of best seller novel.
 The author of the novel. ap- preached by the manager of the young actress, declares that she is not fitted to play the part, which is that of . girl of the slums. To fortify him. self in his opinion the author goes to the theater where she Is appearing. In the play which he sees, the star
 has the role of g. powdered and ruffed court beauty of the eighteenth century. The author goes away more than ever convinced that she would not do for his heroine.
 But the girl outwits him. With a dramatic critic she puts up a job on him, dressing herself up as girl of
 the very type shown in his book and meeting him in the slums. apparently by accident. Subsequent develop
 ments end in the complete overthrow of the author, who is taken in by the deception and has finally to admit ! that no one could better portray the
 part than the young woman who has 50 completely fooled him.
 Miss Dalton appears in the play as
 her natural self, in the court costume
 with powdered wig and patches, and
 finally in the guise of the slum girl.
 So complete are said to be her trans
 formations that 1t is no wonder the 1 uf110r xyas deluded | s,.
