Industrial Service Centers
are being established by the Young
Women's Christian Association In ten
OF the larger cities of the United States
IN order TO demonstrate the beat way
OF meeting the needs of the woman
who earns her w living, particularly
when her work takes her into a
strange city.
such centers have been started in
Richmond, Va, and in New Orleans.
ot hers will be opened soon in Cincin-
nati, Minneapolis n Kansas CITY, ac-
cording TO Miss Miriam G.. Shepherd
assisted by Miss Ethel r. Wylie,
who leaves New York shortly
10 establish work in the last two cities
The five other cities which are to
have these industrial demonstration
centers' are yet to be deterrNned
upon.
The plan. according to Miss shep-
herd is to secur a building In the
heart of the industrial district of the
city where a club, on the order of the
Industrial Wa Service Centcrs, start
ed by the Y. w. G. A., in factories
during wartime. will be opened.
The house is to be in a section
where the girl is and be where she
needs IL There will be no set pro-
gram of work. If the girls who go to
the club want educational classes,
such work will be started on their re-
quest. If they do not, they can use
the center just for recreation and for
good times. If a cafeteria is needed
one will be started. The center is to
provide whatever the girls themselves
in each community want.
The center, while promoted and
supervised through the national in
Idustrial committee, will, be under the
direction of a local committee which
will be mades up of women living In
tt1e community and of industrial
workers for whom the club Is started
and will be managed on broad, demo
cratic principles.
There will be no religious ~restrie-
tons or qualifications nor will mem.
bership in the Y. w. c. A. be COM
pulsory. Club members may join the
association if they desire. but the club
is opep to all women industrial
workers. The girls will assess dues
when small clubs are formed among
the large membership for the purpose
of studying definite subjects or pur-
suing specified kinds of recreation
such as swimming, hiking, basketball
or other gYmnastiC classes.
The work will be directed by women
who have had experience in the war
service clubs at the big munitions fac
tories during the past year and the
aim is to found the work so thoroughly
that cities. realizing the necessity fol
social centers of this sort. will. con.

ton year when 1t is financed by thc

HAVE 4 HEART"

Henry w. Savage's presentation oil
the merry, tuneful musical comedy,
Have a Heart" is to be seen at the
Academy Friday and Saturday and
Saturday matinee. This musical play,
which ranks among the emphatic hits
scored by Mt. Savage in half "a hun
bred notable productions. was last
winter accredited with being one OF
the most satisfactory attractions OF
Introduce L brilliant cast and beanti-
full stage equipment. under the per-
sonal direction OF MIR. Savage. Book
ond lyrics by Guy Bolton and p. q,
Wodehouse, and music by Jerome
Kren. This piece did more, perhaps
than any other product to establish
the fame of this energetic trio as uni
yersal producers Of musical comedy.
Have a Heart has a logical plot
concerning the tangled romance of a
dashing young department store pro-
prietor and his charming wife, Peggy.
They have agreed to separate because
OF his innocent but misjudged interest
in a pretty shop girl. Then they find
they are still in love and eiope to a
summer hotel at Blueport. r. T., for
a second honeymoon.
Messrs. Bolton and Wodehouse have
based their story on Sardou's delight
full comedy. "Divorcons." and have
literally added modern musical com.
edy license. This is the bare outline
OF a story cleverly told. amid tinkling
harmony. hearty humor and n wealth
of song numbers that are already
widely sung and danced to all over
America. Colonel Savage has pro
vided a typical Savage asst and a large
beauty chorus of singing quality.
The company carries its own or
chestra, and. all in all, Have n Heart
promises 10 fully sustain the past
standard OF this most reliable pro.

SMART COMEDY ACTS

One Of the smartest comedy hits in

mer's "Pe~tticoats,' which will have a
prominent place on the bill at the
Lyric the first half Of the week, COM,
mencing with the matinee perform
ance today.
"Petticoats' is an incident in the
lives of a number of college girls, and
the author has recognized good drama
and excellent comedy in an incident
that probably has occurred in actual
life many and many a time-an Incl
dent that il fundamentally the Tam

supporters president of the Irish
Republic" who has been in this coun-
try for two weeks, unknown to the
press of the country, arrived in New
York Monday and took up official
quarters at the Waldorf Astoria no.
tel. Mr.. de Valera is one of the best
known revolutionary leaders in Ire
land, belonging to the extreme radi-
cal or Sim Fem group. Formerly
Professor of Mathematics at the Uni
versity of Dublin, Mr.. de Valera has
been one of the most strenuous
spokesman in favor of complete Irish
independence. He was arrested for
his part in the Sim Fem uprising
last year but escaped from the Lin
colnshire prison in February. Mr..
de Valera was born in New York in
1882 but does not claim American
citizenship. He is, he said, in reply
to question on this point, soldier
of the Irish Republic
In this statement to the press de
Valera compared the Irish demand
