Merchants Association Meets

The present shortage of coal
in this city was the principal to-
pic discussed at Monday Nights
meeting of the Lambertville
Merchants Association, when
Mayor Theodore Balderston
presided, in the absence of Pres
ident Samuel A. Finger. Appar-
emily but few if any people have
their entire quotas delivered,
and some have but one or two
tons out of ten or twelve.
Mayor Balderston had a small
part of his quota, and a load or
two of wood on hand for next
winter, and others were in about
the same fix. 1t was theexpress-
ed belief that this city had fail
ed to receive as much as some
other towns of like size. 1t was
said that Doylestown had re-
ceived it's quota, and New Hope
dealers have some on hand.
The treasurer's and financial
secretary's reports showed a
good financial condition, and
plans for the next meeting were
discussed,

Alexis kosloH
Made. Biggest Hit
In Paris Opera

Alexis Kosloff, who is dancing once
more in New York in "Sinbad," at the
Winter Garden, and who also is re-
sponsible for the ballets in that pro-
duction, is one of the train of Russian
artists who remained in America after
the invasion headed by Pavlowa and
Mordkin.
Kosloff comes from Petrograd and
Moscow. He was educated at the i'm
perial ballet school of Russia, where
he remained for seven years. After
being graduated he Joined the Imperial
Grand Theatre of Moscow, which be-
longed to the Russian Car, and where
he appeared for thirteen years. Upon
leaving Moscow he went to Berlin. He
was IN Paris for several seasons, dane
ing with his company at the Paris
Grand Opera, and it was there that he
made his biggest success on the stage.
Upon his return TO Russia Kosloff
was presented by the Russian Car
with many medals, and royal presents
were showered upon him by the Rus
sian government. At that time he was
invited to go to England with his own
company of 150 people. At the Coli
scum and Hippodrome he produced
"Scheherazade," from "The Arabian
Nights" Leaving England, he travelled
with his own company in Spain, France,
Belgium and throughout the greater
part Of the world. Then he Joined the
Winter Garden passing Show of 1916"
where he danced with Mile. Baldina
and Marylinn Miller, and later in the
"Show of Wonders"

When one considers the success Miss
Fraser won in London it seems surpris-

American audiences see her only in ma

with her will quickly convince one that
this type of part appeals to her just as
strongly as did leading roles.

"The School for Scandal" and then she
appeared in Shaw's "Arms and the
Man."
To Miss Fraser fell the originating
