stage army of half hundred mer
were at work behind the drop cur
tain.
The changes from the apartments
of Chilcote. with the heavy furnish
ings, to the apartments OF Loder, in
poor rooming house, were made
In very few seconds. 1t would not
have been possible to have made
these changes with stage hands NOV
ing the scenery In many minutes,
even tho force as large as that em-
ployed at the New York Hippodrome
had been employed
The first apartment was set on q
revolving stage, which rolled into
place on the Odeon stnge. When the
scene was concluded, the stage set
was swung back to the back wall and
another set slid into place. The two
apartment scenes, which were used
often, were interchanged in twink
ling and there was q wait OF but a
few minutes between scenes
The production Is one OF the heav-
lest that has played the Odeon In
years and the system adopted was
the only one with which rapid
changes could be made. Those were
nine scenes in the production and as
the play is long hand shifting Of
scenery would have resulted In the
show lasting until morning.

Hose company No. Q. stationed at
the south side station. Wednesday
was moved to the central station for
the winter. The south siders were
housed in the uptown station last
winter during the coal shortage, as a
fuel conservation MEASURE. The plan
worked so advantageously to the de-
partment that It had been hoped to
abandon the south side station en- :
tirely but the closing CT the Third
avenue viaduct to traffic, durink the
construction Of the Linn creek
bridge, necessitated the return Of the
company to Its former quarters Now
that the viaduct Is again open. par-
uniting OF direct runs from the cen.
trail station to all points on the south
side, the south side station has been
temporarily abandoned.
While this change probably win
meet with some opposition from
manufacturers Of the south side. the
action Is defended on the ground thny
funds Of the department are low
and the plan Is necessary to carry
the department thru until appropria-
tons are made next spring.
Thru the uni1cation OF the two

sired two platoon system. This
scheme now Is being worked out by
the firemen and q concrete plan
looking to its establishment may be
laid before the city council In the
