An ex-member Of the London county

of that quaint relic Of old London. the
Savoy chapel. marooned in a back
water Of the Strand. has emerged into
print, In the columns Of the Morning
Post, on the great amusement ques-
ton. Mr.. Chapman is convinced that
all Is not well In the theatrical state
OF England, and there are many who
agree with him. Still he Is no mere
tconoclast. He has his remedy. It
Is a very simple one-a ministry Of
mirth. headed by an ideal chief. and
established without delay. But then
Mr.. Chapman admits that he Is an ''in-
corrigible optimist." Perhaps Mr..
Chapman might add to the gayety Of
nations by editing new edition Of the
works of Demokritos Of Abdera. the
Laughing Philosopher. unless, as ID
quite possible. and not without rea-
son, he regards DemokritOs as the first
of pessimists.

Navy Stores for the purpose OF sup
plying the sailors of the grand fleet
with comforts and Injuries that they
would otherwise have had to do with
out. One Of the sea lords at the be-
ginning Of the war. when the grand
fleet was keeping its vigil In Scapa
flow. recognized that the officers and
men needed something to relieve the
dullness OF existence while waiting
for the German fleet to come out.
The suggestion was adopted. and the
Borodino turned into most effective
shop. Almost anything could be
bought on board. while there was 4
fine laundry with a weekly collection
and delivery. and BARRIERS shop. Five
thousand dollars n week was taken BY
the sale OF goods. including penny bars
Of chocolate. greatly favored By young
midshipmen. The latest In fancy
soaps. shaving creams. new books. the
finest chocolates, and an abundance Of
fresh meat, Ash and vegetables helped
to make life more benrable In the cold
and dismal surroundings Of Scapa.
