Dark Prospects.

They say the flu will come again
and take it's toll Of helpless men. The
germs still linger in the air; it may
be years, the docs declare, before the
country can be cleared of this bunk
ailment, fierce and weird. And will
have it every time it circles on it's
course of crime; I've every malady that
is, from writer's cramp to rheumatic,
andmost of all Ihate the flu, which makes
the patient cry, "Kerchoo!" And ev-
cry time I have this i'll I'll cuss the
name of Kaiser Bill. There would
have been no beastly flu but for this
Kaiser William Two. It was the war
that gave it birth and sent it sneezing
round the earth, to kill off gents be-
fore their time, depopulating every
cline. It was the war that gave it
vogue, and Bill, the ranting royal
rogue, kicked up the war, and thus we
see where lies responsibility. So when
I have the flu once more, and I am sick
and sad and sore, and tired of sneezing
in blank verse, and dreaming dreams
Of bier and hearse, III take the potion
and the pill and cuss the name of
Kaiser Bill. Is there woe that rends
the heart that this same kaiser didn't
start? Is there a trouble, stern and
grim, that shouldn't be charged up to
him? ,..r Walt Mason.

Thought It Was a Fake.

Recently Sir Walter Raleigh went
to Philadelphia and University of
Pennsylvania professor went to meet
him at Broad street station. Sir WAL
ter is professor of English at Oxford
university, England, and sometimes he
writes poetry.
The university Of Pennsylvania pro-
'fessor had never seen the English
scholar, but had obtained fairly good
description Of him. The first man to
get off the train seemed to tally with
it soNthis is the conversation that en-
sued:
Excuse me, sir, are you Sir Walter
Raleigh?" "
''No, you fool, I'm Christopher
Columbus! Sir Walter Raleigh is in
the smoking car playing checkers with

Must Have Lower Taxes.

The government has announced the
Victory as the last of the war loans,
but this must not be misunderstood.
It will be the last of the wartime loans
and the, last for which organized cam
paigns will be undertaken. To assume
there will be no further bond issues
will be to assume that the government
plans to meet all expenses, including
the cost of carrying and amortizing
the national debt, would be met by tax
alton; and this, though to certain
extent the treasury proposition, is un-
thinkable and intolerab1e in connection
with the scheme of extinguishing the
war debt in twenty-five years.
Now that the Victory loan is sub
scribed is the time to emphasize the
certainty that the current system of
taxation is too heavy. It cannot be
continued, not even with the Tightening
proposed for next year and provided
in the recent revenue law. Too
weighty burden is laid upon business,
which is called upon at the same time
to carry the load of increased and sus-
tanned labor cost. There will be,
throughout the year, a demand for
lower taxes which congress cannot and
should not resist.
The undue haste to extinguish the
national debt is an unsound democratic
plan and a departure from precedent
There is no occasion for such speed in
clearing off the debt where speed is at
tended by unnecessary hardship. The
democratic policy left as legacy to
the sixty-sixth congress carries with
it no obligation of acceptance. A re.
vised plan of financing the war ex-
pense is a duty the incoming congress
cannot neglect in its own and the
public interest-St. Paul Dispatch.

Drama
New Bill of Actors Equity at
the Lexington Opera
House
By Haywood Broun

The second bill of the Actors Equity
Association, which began at the Lexing-
ton last night, went with all the enzest
which marked the performances Of the
first week. 1t is a rare thing in the
American theatre to hear cheers, but
the audience was reused beyond mere
applause on several occasions last
night. 1t cheered for Blanche Ring,
who had been i'll, but got we'll just to
come out and sing at an Equity show;
1t cheered Ethel BARRYMORE, who played
Juliet for the first time, and it cheered
just as hard for the chorus girls and
men who appeared with De Wolf Hop
per In series of burlesque on the
late crop of musical plays. No one
was credited on the programme with
the authorship of the lyrics, but the
were highly amusing. Moreover" the
chorus, although drilled for only a
little while III its dances. went through
Its turn with grace and skill.
Miss Barrymore was beautiful
juliet and read her lines we'll. There
were times when she was shade too
sweet Juliet, but it was throughout
an interesting and effective interpreta-
ton. Blanche Ring swung the audi
ences with her into the chorusss of
songs IN manner which she alone
among American musical comedy per-
formers can do. Chic Sale did some
gorgeous work in his satirical studies
Of rural life. Some OF this is so ex-
traordinarily delicate and clean cut
that it is a pity that he resorts at
times to broad burlesoue of a much
more careless calibrc. He is at his
best comedian Of the highest skill.
Perhaps his brief excursions into mere
Glowing serve to emphasize the quail
ity OF his most careful studies, which
are as accurate as they are humorous.
He is most extraordinary person,
Chic Sale. and ii he will keep away
from the temptation to seek the easy
laughs inspired by the difficulties of a
man chewing tobacco and studies of
that sort his place in the American
theatre Will remain Distinctive
Robert Emmet heone. one of the
most skilful Of our performers in the
use OF casual material, was an excel
lent master OF ceremonies. and the
Duncan Sisters were highly amusing in
their rapid musical patter. Altogether
the actors strike should at least be
credited with having provided New
York with the most remarkable vaude-
Vile performances which it has seen.

Ciue q Thought to
Fiue Points Playground

There is not much more to the play
ground at Worth and Baxter streets
than the Five Points. Equipment is
lacking, resting facilities are few, and
the whole playground could be tucked
away in the corner of a good sized lot.
The boys of the neighborhood are a
bit more fortunate than the girls.
They have small ball field in Coum

They want to know why the city
doesn't open up the new courthouse

to have a real game.

presence OF the drug addicts around

Tribune Fresh Air Fund
0 to Assure Vacation for Children Rr;,,,s
Quick Response From Warm-Hearted Friends Of
unfortunates From Crowded City Tenements

The S o S of the children is being
answered.
Warmhearted persons need only
to be told that the door to Fresh Air
land was swinging shut because the
pile of gold which keeps it open was
growing too small to hold it back. When
they heard the appeal they were quick
to answer.
Last Friday the o went out for
$1,000 to save the vacations of 1000
boys and girls whose hope of getting
to the country this summer was fast
fading. Since that time old friends of
the Fresh Air Fund have given
$3,168.55 to the fund.
400 More Get Vacations
At the end of last week it was still
open wide enough to permit the pas
sage of 220 youngsters, who romped
through with smiles on their faces and
in their hearts. Yesterday there was
to slide through, and through they went,
100 of them to Eunioe Home at Allan
tic Highlands, N. j., and eighty to Guild
Farm at New City, N. Y. To-day q
couple more will skip by on their way
to Norwich, N. Y
Almost one-half of the rescue fund
for the thousand lads and lassies is in
hand, and almost half of the thousand
have begun their vacations. The 9th ar
/ half have had their hopes revived they
wait with anxious eyes to see if still
other friends will ne as kind to them
AS some have been to those who have
already been sent away.
Half of the money received in -
sponse to the S 0 came from two
sources. Six hundred dollars of it
came from Rowland H. Smith. who las.
year met an emergency appeal with
the same sort of gift. He is salvaging
the outings of nearly ninety children =
almost the whole of the party sent tc
Eunice Home.
From "The Touchstone." an art mag
azine, came 81 900 yesterday by spe-
cial messenger, so that it might be in
season 10 forward the rescue before TIE
too late had sounded. "The Touch
stone" too, is All old friend of the
youngsters for whom the fund works,
and it trpled last years gift.
Kind Words With Gift
With the gift came something almo It
as encouraging to the fund as the
money itself-approval Of keen oo-
server for the work as it is carried on.
In letter accompanying the contribu-
tion Mary Fanton Roberts, editor OF
THE Touchstone says:
The more I hear of The Tribune
Fresh All work from all over the coun-
try the more important it seems to be
and the more delighted ! am that we can
help. A thousand good wishes go with
the thousand dollars
Did you need just this word OF ap-
proval from an impartial observer to
decide you whether a contribution to
