route to an opening engagement on
Sunday at the Auditorium, Spokane.
Turn to the Right" while it
bristles with clean fun, it's underly-
ing theme of mother-love gives it a
tremendously wide appeal. The play
is to be presented with the New York
company, exactly as it ran for thir-
teen months in New York.
Joe Bascom, the erring boy whose
footsteps are guided homeward after
seven years of wandering, by the
light in the parlor window, placed
there by his mother, is a type COM
mon to every small town in America.
The play opens with his release from
Sing Sing and his meeting with two
former pals, Slippery Muggs, a pick
pocket, and Dynamite ,Gilly, a safe
robber. He rejects their proposals
concerning certain safe in the
Bronx and announces his intention of
going straight"
Young Bascom walks to his old
home and arrives there to find that
the mother and young sister are
about to have the little farm taken
from them by the village Shylock, to
whom they owe $125 for groceries.
Quite accidentally Mugs and Gilly
happen along and Joe unfolds the sit
uation to them. The money-getting
of the two crooks are put
to quick use and the debt is paid with
borrowed from the skin
flint's own safe. An instant later he
is "frisked' and the money is re-
stored to the safe without his being
the wiser. ff-
With the farm saved, the three
busy themselves harvesting the peach
crop. When concerted into Mother
Bascom's justly celebrated peach jam
the crop brings rich returns and
through the Christian influence of the
old lady the boys are re-
stored to lives Of honesty and use
fulness. Joe is eventually exonerated
of the crime for which he was sent to
prison and three love romances find
happy elimination in the final act.

{ MI Editor: I ask permission to
protest against an attack made on me,
by Guy w. Wolf, in yesterdays issue
of this paper. Mr.. Wolf quotes the
law as follows: Section 2259 of Idaho
Revised Codes provides: 1T shall be
the duty of such treasurer of such
towns, cities and villages to cause
to be published, for at least one in
se1tion in some newspaper within
said town, city or village, between the
first and second Mondays of January,
April, July and October of each year a
full statement of the receipts and ey-
penditures of said town, giving the
source from whence received, TO
WHAT PURPOSE APPLIED and to
whom paid.
This quotation is probably correct
He then proceeds to state that almost
year has past since a report of this
kind has been published and there
fore concludes that the treasurer is
subject to criminal prosecution and
would infer that / have violated the
law, failed to do my duty,-in short

against me.

Brown-T allied Moth
Traces Discovered

State inspection of foreign nur-
sery stock by the Department of
Agriculture made good a few days
ago when inspectors of the Bureau
of Zoology found the brown-tail
moth caterpillar and the gypsy moth
in shipments from France. The in
spectors working in Philadelphia
were inspecting shipment of
French nursery stock consigned to
a Philadelphia nurseryman and the
dangerous brown-tail moth cater
pillar was found in living condition
and the eggs of the gypsy moth
were found ready to hatch. They
were Immediately taken from the
stock and in a few days hatched
and killed in the offices of the
Economic Zoologist in this city.
These two pests are not known to
be established in Pennsylvania or
nearby states, but they have cost the
New England states more than
thirty millions of dollars in losses
to forests and woodlands and eX-
penditures for control. The escape
of the pests would have started COL
onies which multiply rapidly and
damage trees and shrubs.
The chances of introduction of
foreign pests will be greatly reduced
after July /. 1919, when the Federal
Quarantine restricting plant imports
become effective.
