While there is only a hair line be-
tween tragedy and mirth, according to
Toto, the international clown. who Is
at the Orpheum this week, yet humor
is the most solemn thing OF the age,
In other words, he declares that being
funny is very serious business. hat a
JGkesmith has no joke OF q job; that
merriment Is a study Of intensity and
application, and that to make folks
laugh is one Of the hardest things on
earth-unless, ~perchance, you don't
want them TO laugh, when as my
tragedian will admit, they so often do
what isn't desired.
Every laugh secured from an au-
dienco is extracted with the hearts

is because what is funny to one per-
son is not to another, save in rare in
stances, and an audience Is made up
of very many different persons OF vary
ing t~emperaments. Therefore, a Joke,
to go over on the stage or in the saw
dust ring, must appeal universally.
and It isn't often one finds such a de-
licious morsel. And when one does ac-
quire such. It is all too apt to be filch-
ed from here for use by less original
but lone the less plratical persons. One
cannot patent a Joke, n once II Is
sprung, II becomes any ones property,
unless one can be decent enough TO re-
spect the unwritten rights Of the origi-
nator.
The way to make "A real joke--a sue
cessful one says Toto, is to think 1t up,
see how mournful 1t is to you, and
then try 1t out On your friends. II all
of them say it is awful, you may figure

Food Control Act Gets Senate
Approval.

Washington, Sept. 12.-the house
bill extending the food control act
to penalize profteering, as request
ed by President Wilson and Attor-
ney General Palmer, as means of
reducing the cost of living, was pass
ed by the senate late today and sent
to conference.
In addition to penalties-S5,OO0
fine and two years Imprisonment
for profteering, boarding, Destroy
ing or monopolizing of food and
other necessaries or making an un-
lust or unreasonable rate of CHARGE
the bill extends the law to include
wearing apparel and containers OF
food, fuel, fertilizers and agricultu-
raj machinery. The life of the pro-
posed law would terminate upon the
proclamation of peace.
Although many senators criticiz-
ed the bill and, with general ex-
pressions of reluctance grudgingly
assented to its passage without rec
ord vote, there was virtually no op-
position to the measure and only
about dozen senator's followed its
course.
Only one amendment of substance
was made to the bill as passed by the
house-a rider proposing an official
body to supervise property rentals
in the Districtof Columbia to prevent
profteering.
The senate struck out committee
amendment, championed by Senator
Smith, democrat, Georgia, authoriz-
ing specifically the establishment by
the department of justice of "fair
price" committees and providing
that charges above the price sched-
ules fixed by such committees should
be considered to be profteering. AS
passed, however, the bill does not
prohibit or limit the departments
plan to administer the law through
the agencies of voluntary "fair
price" committees. All Of the house
provisions designed to extend the
operation of and "put teeth" in the
law were adopted by the senate.
After passing the bill the senate
adjourned till Monday.
