Road Legislation.
Highway legislation also will re-
ceive attention Of the legislators. The
senate bill will be reported out of the

a few minor amendments. Senator
Duffy said that there is some dissen-
ton in the house committee, however,
and the provision that automobile

"This is an interesting country. but
won't trade all Germany for Wayne
country" writes Corporal E. n. Pollard
of Co. C, 3rd division Supply with the
army of occupation in Germany. In
a letter to the Palladium he says:
I'VE were in a little town named
Bricon in the province of Haute Marine
until May 20, when we were ordered
into action with our division near
Chateau Thierry. We were there
when everything happened, and there
were some rather exciting things hap
pened We were also in the st. Mihiel
drive, and last and hardest of all, in
the Areonne fOrest-Meuse drive. We
have had all kinds Of weather. but
can't complain because the ambulance
drivers had tougher time than We
fellows. Roads where there were no
roads, and with three or four lines of
traffic, mingling of infantry, etc., and
all this while we tried to keep in
touch with the company convoy with
out lights, were some of the many
things We experienced.
THAT is all l have to say about
the war, but want to say to the
people of Wayne county, see American
scenery first. Nothing will outclass
the Rocky Mountains of the Missis-
sippi valley.
Il hope to hear from you all soon
as l do not hope to have the privilege
Of being in the States very soon.

Whether your trouble is Sciatica,

You must treat it through the blood.
That is the only way to rid the sys-

Alien or Natiue?

"But the odd thing iS that it never
seems to occur to our purveyors of
theatrical fare that London is not
merely rather cosmopolitan capital,
but that it is the capital of the British
Empire, and above all, of England, and
that the duty of English theatrical
management begins at home.
Il have not left myself the space in
which to point out where the fault lies
In this supremacy of the alien drama
and the consequent freezing OUT of
the native product. But if any English
theatrical manager ventures to say that
the fault lies with either the British
public or the British dramatist, shall
be very pleased to venture to show
him why he is mistaken and where the
fault rea y lies"

Var and the Boon,

"But here's the rubl While the
war was on most Of US were content
to lie fallow, for that supreme and
poignant drama was too actual to leave
much room in our hearts and minds
for the mimic drama. So some of us
were content to leave the English
stage to the crook importations from
America and to the spy play home
made pot-boilers, while feeling i'm
mense respect for the few native play
wrights who were able to carry on and
give us their best while the war was
on. Most Of US. however, / think,
stored up our emotions, waiting for
the final curtain of Armageddon before
we could even feel certain that what
we wished to write would be pro-
duced in an England still mistress of
herself.
"But the boom arose--a boom due
70 the fact that a war-wracked popu-
iation and war-stalncd soldiers needed
amusement and we're not particularly
particular what sort of amusement 1t
was 30 long as it took them out of
themselyes.' And 30 the transatlantic
play came TO be imported by the dozen,
and now that peace has come and the
old ways are open once more, we find
that the English drama Is elbowed of
its own hearth--which is the London
xtAge--and dramatists Of repute and
established regulations. whose sc-
cepted plays are ready TO go on are
faced with the certainty that tho Lon
don stage will have little room for
them for years 10 come.
II repeat, II Is not question Of
professional Jealousy, but Of the simple
fact that plays about English psopls.
