Reconstruction Aid
To Other Nations
Work Undertaken i'm France

Europe, Says DIR. Mott
AT Big Conference Here

The Y. NJ. c. A. is to extend to other
countries the work it took up in France.
England, Russia and Italy during the
war. Its reconstruction CAMPAIGN VIII
be carried to almost every country Of
the world, it was SAID Yesterday at a
conference of more than POO delegates
from Eastern States at the Hotel Aston
1t was decided to raise S543,000 as their
quota Of the $500 600 budget for the
worlds work
The money is to be raised without
pubic solicitation from friends of the
organization. 1t is to be fund en-
uIely separate from that raised for
war work, which VIII be prosecuted
with money obtained for that purpose
ne conference at the Hotel Astor WAS
called by the foreign work department
Of the y. NJ. {. A. DR.. John R. Mott.

the new demands that had been made
upon the Y. N. c. A. and the new OPP
portunities that lay ahead
The extension OF Y Nj. {. A. service
TO the nations and backward peoples
who seek it, SAID DR.. Mott, rs the
outgrowth Of the contact of many of
them with our war service One OF
the great objects for which the war
was fought was that impartial justice
should be the portion of every nation
IN the world. The peace conference
IN Paris is now engaged in seeing tina
this object shall be guaranteed. Let
the Y. NJ. c. A. keep equal step with
Paris. We must lot let the recon
structlon of comparatively limited
war zone deter US from our duty in
the rest of the world.
This war has united the English
speaking peoples. By their unity in
the cause Of justice the door has been
opened to great service in France
and IN the French colonies. The y
NJ. c. A. programme Of service as
achieved in the 'Foyers du Soldat' is
being continued at the request of the
french government The Balkans are
asking for our service. ONLY few
days ago the Metropolitan % Greece
came TO my Office and pleaded for the

Pistol Permits to Cost More
Aldermanic Committee Expect
cd To Raise Present 81 Fee

The Aldermanic Committee on Gen

it would be inadvisable to raise the fee
for revolver permits to $25. Much
opposition to such an advance devel-
opcd at a hearing on the proposed in

1t is likely that the committee will
recommend to the board fees of SIS

Scandal Emma Bunting

No play produced in Chicago in the
past 20 years so completely took that
city by storm as Scandal with En-
ma Bunting, Cosmo Hamilton's enorm-
ously interesting comedy, which comes
TO the Lyric theater. Monday and Tues
day, Nov. 3 and 4, with special matinee
Tuesday. This play comes here direct
from a solid sever months run at the
Shubert-Garrick theater, Chicago, and
he interest in its local engagement is
attested by the numerous and frequent
inquiries from local playgoers as to the
probable date of the attraction In this
city.
Scandal is in three acts, and de-
rives its title from the audaciously noe
turnal visits of BeatriX Vanderdye, only
daughter of a rich merchant to the
studio of a society artist. On one of
her visits the hayward young person
meets a poet and an Australian hunter,
and later, when called Upon the carpet.
~endeavors to get herself out of the mess
by saying she has been secretly mar
ried to the Australian. Being a sports
man., he plays out the game. The de-
velopment Of this plot Is very delight

Cosmo Hamilton in what is conceded
by all critics as his best play.

ADJUSTMENTS
THE Naughty Wife. /"

Fred Jackson's three act farce. The
Naughty Wife which win be given its
first local performance at the Lyric
theater on Friday, Oct. 81, for an en-
gagement of two days with matinee
saturday, by Selwyn and company, Is
a diyerting little piece based upon mar
ltal complications familiar in so-called
French plays, but in his instance pre-
scented with a somewhat novel side to
the triangle.
Silly women who listen to a male
phiianderer, because hubby is too busy
to, satisfy all of wifey's whims and
neglects to play the part of a con-
tinuous lover, have oftimes been lead
ing figures more or less pathetic in a
traPedY or comedy. In the lighter
pieces many Of the lines and situations
nave not been models of propriety,
neither have some of the stage per-
sonages.
But in 1.-THE Naughty Wife" which
was originally under the title of Losing
Eloise,' Mr.. Jackson has succeeded in
weaving together a series of scenes and
arranged his characters in a manner
that gives no offense, the escapades OF
the wife being assisted by the husband
who, as chaperon, is determined she
shall have fair play.
Two ornate settings, the living room
and the bungalow are used in telling
the ~laughable story, the cast is admira-
BILE throughout. Reeva Greenwood, Cor
don Eldred, C. Elwood Farber, W. H
Crosby, Harry Keen, Gertrude Waltheri
and Irma Heath playing the prlncipa
roles.
The seats go on sale Wednesday.
