It is the farewell performance of the prima donna, Sylva Vareska. In box is Baron Ferrer and Sylvas lover. Charles Lorenz whom she is secretly engaged to marry. Hearing of his sons infa atuation for the singer, Count Michel Lorenz, Charles father, has hastened to prevent the marriage. The count meets his old friend, Baron Terrier, and they scheme to marry Sylva to man of title and then let her divorce her husband, so that Charles, when he in turn marries her, will at least be wedding woman with a title The count agrees to this plot, but hopes Sylva will never become his sons wife. He has other plans for his son, and reminds the baron of the childhood love that existed between Charles and the baron's daughter, Claire. To carry out the plan, the count offers 10000 francs to any one who will find broken-down man of title to marry Sylva that night. The plot is overheard by Sam Springer, from F'ishburg, H., and to earn the 10000 francs, Springer persuades Victor de Berryl, a supposed waiter, to pose as a count and marry Sylva. Victor, really a prince, is delighted, for he is secretly in love with Sylva, and he is only pretending to be waiter so that he may serve her and her friends at a farewell supper. The complications that follow are both romantic and humorous

BY II. c. ELLIOTT

(Professor of Physics, University of
Washington, in Seattle Times)
Automobile accidents are seemingly
on an alarming increase in the city and
the state, and the newspaper accounts
show that night accidents are not in
frequent.
A careful driver and proper auto
mobile headlight are the two chef
factors in the prevention of night ac-
cidents.
Every driver believes he is
careful, but no driver is sure that his
lights are satisfactory. They may make
his own driving easy and safe, but he
is not certain of their effect on the
oncoming driver.
There are then two problems to be
solved. What kind of light should
the driver have and what kind of a
light should he throw into the eyes of
the pedestrian or the driver of an APP
preaching car. Either problem con-
sidered separately finds a rather easy
solution. but when considered together
the problem Is complicated because
what is one mans meat is anotber's
poison.
WHAT DRIVERS WANT
One driver wants light that will
illuminate the road 200 feet or more
ahead, and that will throw light to
the road side, both of sufficient in
tensity to enable him to quickly see
pedestrians crossing his path and to
bring out sharply the character of the
road bed The driver. then. consider
ing his own needs, has gradually gone
to stronger and STRONGER lights until
we have in use auto headlights that APP
proach searchlights in their ability TO
light the road.
The approaching driver on the other
hand, wants and needs as little light
as possible coming to his eyes from,
the car he must pass. Indeed, he Is
only completely satisfied when the on
coming car shows its DINNERS. Toe
much light, producing glare makes
the approaching driver uncertain OF
the conditions ahead of him and, there
fore, tends to cause accidents.

sThere 10 no need for automobile
owners and employers to be vfctimfzej
by chauffeurs of questionable charac-
ter In the present day and time The
standards of the chauffeur's profession
have been raised SO high In the lasa
few years that the majority of chauf-
feurs now are honest. responsible and

employers would investigate the his

carefully as business men examine APP
plicants for cashiers or bookkeepers,
the unreliable chauffeurs would be al

These remarks on the chauffeur ques-
ton were made by Albert N. Atkinson,
head of the Atkinson Automobile
school, New York, during recent dis
cussion of the great increase in the
standing and Importance of the chauf-
feur since the early days Of the auto
mobile industry.
Only few days ago" Mr.. Atkin-
son went on, "a great part Of the
American people had TO consult their

helps any movement on the part of
the state or his employers which tends
to make his profession better one for
honest, intelligent men, and worse for
the ignorant and knavish. He knows
that unreliable men have brought bad
repute upon the whole class of chauf-
feurs in the past, and 1t is to the best
interests of all TO have the undesir-
ables shown UP and eliminated.
sowing to the rapid growth Of the
automobile industry in all it's
branches, it was inevitable that some
undesirables should creep into the
ranks of chauffeurs during the early
years of the business. But. thank to
say, they are now in extremely small
numbers and are growing fewer and
fewer all the time.
State officials are slow to realize
the necessity of passing laws to regu-
late the standards of the profession
and, of course, without such laws little
could be done. Now that the state
legislature of New York has taken
steps 10 root out chauffeurs with bad
records, and to submit all applicants
for chauffeur's licenses to the most
rigid examinations, the honest chauf
feur can hold up his head in the knowl-
edge that he belongs TO profession for
which all men can not quality, and the
employer can place more trust in his
driver.

Z, lations,- the automobile schools have
! gone far In raising the standards OF
the profession. In the early days when
drivers who were full fledged niechar
les were hard to find and were greatly
in demand. and automobile dealers had
much difficulty in supplying their Gus
toners with skilled chauffeurs. schools
for chauffeurs spranE up all over the
country. to meet the demand
''Unfortunately, some OF the schools
were started by INSCRIPTIONS persons
who proved on the public ignorance oil
automobiles, and found many gulls'
The result was that a prejudice against
the schools grew up, but the elimina-
ton of the bad schools and the sur
vival of the fittest, as time has passed,
has finally done away with this preju-
dice.
Nothing has promoted the autorno-
bile business, particularly in the train
Ing of reliable intelligence and expert
chauffeurs, more than the reliable au-
tomobiIe schools. Whereas ten years
ago the skilled driver was a rarity, the
influence Of the schools has resulted
in a. great number OF expert chauffeurs
today. They are highly trained ex-
perts in their line, not only knowing
how to drive their cars, but also under
stand the care and repair of the en-
CINE. Through the training of the
schools, men have become skilled in the
care and operation of automobiles, even
though their previous experience was
in other pursuits, so that to day 1t Is
no uncommon sight to see a young
clerk. who year ago was working over
a counter earning a good salary as a
skilled chauffeur. who understands the
mechanism of his car well enough, to
make repairs when necessary, and Keep
it in good running order.
But one thing remains to be done
and that lies with the employer. 1t
is to make a thorough investigation of
the record of every man he employs az
a chauffeur. Do not be content with
letters of recommendation. 1t is ad
visable to consult personally the one
who issues the recommendation. A
chauffeur holds a more respon sible po-
sition than a clerk bookkeeper or
cashier, because he has charge of prop
erty which, IL not properly controlled,
may damage life and property, and
his record should be more thoroughly
investigated than that of clerical en-
ploye.
"The honest chauffeur will raise no
objection to such investigation. He
realizes that after an employers con-
fidence has been abused by one or
more chauffeurs, it is hard for even
the best of drivers to make good with
that employer, and he does not want
the honest majority to be condemned
because of the wrongs Of few"
