WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

If you were an ambitious young
woman and a duke were to fall in
love with you, would you ieopardize
your chances Of marrying him by dis
closing 10 him a secret which might
transform his love for you in hatred?
That is what the heroine IF 'The Ca
reer of Katherine Bush, the new
Paramount-Artcraft special picture
starring Catherine Calvert, which will
be displayed at the Aiclzar Theatre
Saturday did, and strangely enough
her confidence served to increase ra-
ther than diminish the desire Of her
noble sweetheart to make her his
bride
Here was the situation in nutshell.
Katherine Bush began life as a typ
ist in money lenders Office, where
she met Lord Algy. young noble
man, who paid her marked attentions.
She associates with him in order to
learn the ways Of mer, end when she
seeks to marry her, she turns him

Duke Of Mordryn speah IN Iarlia-
ment and instantly fats IN 1--we with
him.
She contrives t. meet the duke and
he believes her 70 be a society wonan
instead Of the companion 10 the dukes
hostess which she actually was. She
disillusions him, but he loves her all
the more Then she tells him of her

COME ALONG Is
PLEASINCOPENER
AT OPERA HOUSE

Without anything more Of a plot
than necessary TO hold together
number Of tunefuI songs, and give
opportunity for several graceful
dances, Come Along" pleased last
nights audience at the Opera House.
Among the girls, Of whom there were
a dozen or more, q number Of shape
y maidens appeared to good effect,
and several Of them had sufficient
beauty TO attract more than ordinary
attention. Margaret Corwin, who has
a good voice, played the part of Bar
bara Benton, a Salvation Army major
o. foreign service with an under
standing that appealed to those pres
ent, while Hedley Hall as Tom Nc
Ianus, private soldier, and hero Of
tt play earned liberal applause with
lis singing Paul Callan. VII oplayed
tie part Of Frank Marshal, a snohbish
liC' .enant in Franco, got sHay tn
ai' ~ desirable part to tie eatistac-
tier Of all who saw the play, and
with an ease that made it seem per-
fectl ynatural with him to be a vii
,lian. Among the songs, "Rollin' de
Bones at Coblenz on De Rhine" by
JEFF" an egro private; Yankee
Land" by Peanuts" and Chorus ;
Salvation SAL" by Miss Corwin and
Chorus, "When You Are Happy" by
Mr.. Hall and Miss Corwin and
Mother Dear" solo by Mr.. Hall,
were all enjoyed, though ga Song of
Dixie Land" by JEFF" probably re-
ceived more liberal applause than any
other song of the evening.

Order Sidewalks For
School Benefit Laid

The resolution ordering con-
struction of a sidewalk on the south
side Of College street, from Barlow
street to Elm avenue, for the benefit
Of school pupils, which had lain un-
acted upon for two meetings, was
passed by the city council last night.
Alderman Mashburn proposed an
amendment to the resolution calling
for the construction of a sidewalk also
upon the north side, contending that
this would be the fair thing, and
would eventually be needed, so why
not now. The other four aldermen
voted against the amendment, it be-
ing said that only one sidewalk was
needed now, and that the side easiest
to pave had been chosen.

La Cuardia Attacks New
Purchase Bureau Jobs
Plan Designed to Save Money
Results in Tammany Extrava-
gance. Candidate Charges

Representative F. H. La Guardia, Re-
publican candidate for president Of the
Board OF Aldermen, at q meeting of the
Kings County Nonpartisan League
held last night at l39 Utica Avenue,
charged that instead Of making the new
central purchase bureau an instrument
of economy for the city the Tammany
administration has used it for patron
age purposes, with the result that it is
costing the taxpayers more to run the
purchasing for the city than under the
old plan.
"a central purchase bureau was Gre
ated by the last state Legislature"
said Mr.. La Guardia, ION the plea that
consolidated buying of city supplies
would bring about economies. An in
formal committee had been attempting
consolidated buying under the Tam
many administratio tion, with some costly
results to the city, but profit to Tam
many. The new bureau, however, gets
its generous allotment of new Jobs,
costing the taxpayers thousands of
dollars a year more, and all the pur-
chasing agents in the various city de-
partments are still kept on the pay
roll, though the new bureau is to take
over their duties. Thus the duplicati ton
of purchasing is continued instead of
being ended.
zone of the acts of the central pur-
chase committee under Tammany was
to buy some ammonia at much higher
than market price
