POLLS.

It's all for the lliddies at Polls this
week. The stage is a Fairyiand. and
the players mostly fairies. Nearly all
of Old Mother Goose's famous char
acters walk around the stage in real
life. and a perfectly live Santa Claus
visits the theater in a real sleigh.
notwithstanding the fact that the
snow is all gone.
Although the show answers to the
name of 1.-The Gingerbread Man" 1t
concerns mostly the story OF little
Jack Horner and the plum that he
pulled from the pie. The plum is
supposed to have been a beautiful
princess. who was transformed, for
some reason, by a wicked fairy. and
there follows an awful struggle to
have her brought back to her origi-
nal form.
1t requires the combined efforts Of
Kris Kringle, Jack Horner, Miss Muf-
At, Simple Simon, Margery Daw. the
Gingerbread Man. and several others
to outwit the vicious MachevaIius

hand curses, and evil omens," but,
like all fairy stories, all ends well in
the final chapter.
While the children enjoy the antics
OF the fairies and their companions.

CHINESE BANDITS WORST IN WORLD Shantung Is Happy Hunting Ground for Thousands
 of Them

Peking, October 31-From almost ev- cry province of China came reports of outrages committed by robbers and some of their recent exploits equal those of the, terrible White Wolf who ravaged a huge stretch of territory before meeting none too timely end Shantung is the happy hunting of geographical facilities which ena a5le the rascals when pursued by troops to enter adjoining provinces whence they cannot be followed. This state of af- fairs has been made much worse by General Lung Chi-Kwang, who, after ms defeat in Kwangtung by the south ern armies. recruited from the shan tung banditti fresh levies for his ex- petition. He secured wholesale a force or 5o0o men by promising to make their leader brigadier general in the republican army of China.
 Dissatisfied to find no pay forth. coming, these .'robber recruits com menced footing and attacked the Tien. tsih- PuRow railway, the link between Picking and Shanghai. Here, however, they met the Shantung troops, and sev- eral battles were fought before the bandits were dispersed The train service was interrupted by. the bandits tearing up portion of the line. Gen. eral Lung Chi-Kwang denies all re- spohsibility for the misguided actici- tes of his recruits, but the govern ment has prohibited the enlistment of further men before their approval has been given. Such is the state in China today.

CANADA IS MAKING 1 PLANS FOR RETURN

BUSINESS REACTION CAME IMMEDIATELY AFTER ARMISTICE
Reports Show That People Who Had Been Holding
 Back Rushed Into Market

Washington, December 1,-Reaction from war time economy is apparent in reports to various government agencies since the signing of the armistice. War savings committees in all parts of the country have submitted statements tending to show that persons who ab- stained from buying unnecessary clothes during the war have rushed to shops within the past week or two and bought according to pre-war stan dards.
 Retail businesses report stimulation of business by peace news In some eases, the response was immediate, business showing a big jump within a day or two after November II. This re- action seems most marked among the wealtflier classes.
 Reports gathered by the federal re- serve board also show activity among wholesale houses to meet the demand of retailers. The wholesale business, however, is somewhat restricted by the desire of retail merchants to let their stocks run low, while waiting for prices to come down. Thousands of retailers quickly arranged special sales of their stocks at lower prices, in view of the uncertainties of the future couI SC of prices.
  sudden start after the long enforced period of slugishness during the war, and building materials are now begin ming to flow away from former war en- terpriseS, toward peace time building projects. Private building seems to be holding back, however. Municipalities and states have turned their thoughts to building roads and bridges, held up during the war by shortage of mate- rials and within the next month of ficials here look for a multitude of ad- vertisements for bids for these pro- jects.
 At least eight billions of dollars must be raised in the United States next year from war bonds or war savings Off cials argue that floating of these loans without corresponding saving in money and materials merely serves to inflate credit, and the practical re- suit of this imitation Is a general rise in prices.
 The treasury now is seeking to de- velop means of continuing thrift propaganda throughout the next few years. to educate the public to the duty of paying off indebtedness before re- lax1ng war time economy. In fact, stu dents of economy in the treasury de- clare that unless the American people learn lessons of thrift which popula- tions of England France Germany and other warning nations have learned during the past four years, the country will be in position during reconstruc- tion of absorbing much more than its share of the worlds available stock of food, materials and labor, needed for the physical rebuilding of devastated portions of Europe.
 Treasury agencies studying bonks' conditions in industrial communities, particularly where war materials were manufactured. find that savings and checking accounts maintained by workmen do not have balances propor- tionate to their advances in wages dur, ing the war
