@ NCE upon a time. as the story Il j tellers say, there lived in England W theatre manager of the bogus type who was very dilatory in the matter of paying his salaries. Now in this com uany was a self-willed actor whose strong part was the ghost in Hamlet.
 If his salary was not forthcoming on a Saturday morning he would exclaim, eThen the ghost won't walk tonight!' As he was an indispensable actor, he was always paid Sometimes he received only portion of his salary, with the prom ise of the remainder in the course of the far as to hold up the play just before the scene when he entered, until he was paid.
 Of course,. the manager could not give his salary to one member of the com pany and overlook the others, 50 they all began to feel a keen interest in the walk ing of the ghost as a barometer of the pay situation. About the time of treas ury" on Saturday morning they would wait until they received word by the mes senger that the ghost would walk.
 To this day the expression that the ghost walks" is synonymous with the paying of salaries not only iG theatres, but in many offices, and actors assem- bling for their weekly salaries in a not too reliable company put the question to each other: '1s the ghost walking?" While, if about to accept an engagement of q manager of whom they know noth- ing, they ask: Does the whost walk?"

 posed entertainment for the returned
 soldiers, which was to have been given on July 8, that the big event will be postponed until later. The postponement | of the celebration was made upon the request of the returned soldiers through out the county who stated that they would much prefer waiting until later in the year owing to the fact that they did rot care to don their uniforms and pa rade so soon after returning to civil life.

 The trucks will be equipped with proper bodies to take care of two maintaining crews.
