This leads up to an explosion OF
wrath on the part of Huneker with
regard to the recent debut OF Evelyn

he does as follows:
''The other week . much advertised

sang badly, with a voice Of mediocre
quality, and she was not particularly
good-looking. But those naughty,

of her monkeyshines, which proved so

COMEDY Of Purer TyDe.
Here we have An Illustration OF the
difference between the acting of the
farce comedian and the new type
created by Gilbert & Sullivan-no
less by the latter than by the former.
The dominant idea OF the Savoy oper-
eta Ito give 1t a name by which old
timers will recognize it)was that its
comicality should emerge from the
absurd things which were said and
done by apparently serious personages
in the most obviously sincere and un-
conscious manner. From this arose
the delightful incongruity and para
dox which is the essence of the Gil.
bertian comedy. 1t was intellectual,
sometimes so intellectual indeed, that
it went over the heads of the multi
tude, as we suggested in reviewing
"Ruddigore," with reference particu-
larly to Princess Ida which we
think, remains the finest example of
Gilbert's literary skill. But the pub
lie acquired an education in time, or
a public of different kind took the
place of the old public which found

PRAISES HARDING'S
WELFARE PROGRAM

Senator Harding's address on social
justice in which he proposed Federal
Department of Public Welfare, is the
longest step and practicable proposal
yet taken by any man Of official re-
sponsibility," declares Hon. Simeon d.
Fess, representative in Congress from
Ohio.
His program goes directly to the
core Of the problem and demands pro-
lection, first, Of motherhood, by safe
guarding maternity, then of childhood,
by proper legislation, and through
these, the national health against In
vasion of disease through low stand
ards Of morals and commercial ag-
gression Of industry, which exposes to
epidemcs," he said, '"He recognizes
social justice not as woman's prob
lem, but as a general problem, In
which women play larger part.
Hence, his specific demands that wom-
en- be placed on various boards, Fed
with problems Of employment, labor
adjustment and wherever national
health is to be determined. This con-
Germ must extend 10 women in agri-
culture, as well as industries.
SENATOR Harding's sound common
sense prevents his dealing in general
theories at the expense of practical
results. Alive to the dangers OF
bureaucracy, against which he warns,
he asks for a reorganization of our de-
partments at Washington which will
be one of his earliest tasks. and rec
ommends the creation of department
Of Public Welfare, to have directions

Chicago, Oct. If one were re-
CURED to name single factor which
is doing more than any other to work
toward Republican success in Novem-
Der, he would probably have to say:
Determination of the public to have
a change and to get away from Will
soniSm.
Reports from all quarters tell of this
feeling, at once q desire for a change
and a determination to bring it about
at the polls November 2.
Whether it be from the central west
the far west, the east or the SOUTH the
reports tell of this seeking for
change. The desire for a change is
born of dissatisfaction, dislike and dis
gust felt by the voters toward the Will
son administration and the things it
has done and left undone
Mr.. Cox is looked on as a man who
If he were elected would follow the
track of Mr.. Wilson. In fact, he has
declared himself in complete accord"
with Mr.. Wilson
The public, by all accounts, is not
looking for man who will go along
with Mr.. Wilson or the Wilson policies.
