English and American productions. He
was q composer of note, and one of bis
last and most successful songs was

While the song, my Little Irish Girl"
was dedicated to Mr.. O'Hsra, and has
been sung by him on numerous occas-
ions, it has never been included in the
repertoire of songs he sings in his
present play, "Marry In Haste. ~ But
the other day he received a letter from
soldier friend of Capt. Horne who is
resident of this city, and was famil-
lar with the circumstances of the song
and Mr.. O'Hara's association with it.
in which he asked the latter as spec
ial favor and a mark of respect to the
departed soldier-composer, to sing my
Little Irish Girl" on the occasion Of
his present visit to this city. Needless
to say, Mr.. O'Hara gladly acquiesced
in the request, and the lifting melody
which has been so keen source of
pleasure to the boys lover there" will

cal performance of "Marry In Haste"

need Of every American citizen to do
his and her share if we are to win in
this great world war, and Of the awful
consequences that would result if the

efforts. The meeting closed. with the

 HIGH IN MOST SECTIONS.


 Washington Ian -5asolene production costs showing that retail prices are from seven to ten cents above the refining cost were made public today by the federal trade com mission after an investigation started by Victor Murdock The cost of pro ducing gasolene was found to be low est in California l3.52 cents.
