BOTHER MEMS WIVES"
 BE REPEATED TONIGHT;
 ''PEPPY POLLY" FRIDAY

Dorothy Dalton appears again to- night in the modern society play "Other Mems Wives" Strongly dram atic in plot, it keeps you guessing un- til the end, when the girl, who was :. reared in luxury, then left destitute bv the death of her father, proves that in spite of lack of training and ed ucation along practical lines, she can fight her own way, and win honorable Independence. There are many scenes tensely emotional, and Miss Dalton handles these superbly, and as effec- lively as she meets the lighter situ- ations She is past mistress both of drama and comedy, and her work throughout this picture is especially fine.-~ She has splendid support and the production affords enjoyable en tertainment.
 Tomorrow night dainty Dorothy Gish in ''Peppy Polly" Did you ever knew reform school that needed re- forming? And did you attempt to per form the job? We'll, Dorothy did And thereby hangs this quaint little comedy drama and, in short, is syr enormous for pep.

AIR GARAGE INCREASED BY
 NAVAL ORDER

LAKEHURST, N. J., July 22 (by As sociated Press) The navy depart ment has ordered an increase of 200 feet in the length of the mammoth sair garage" for dirigible balloons which is being built here, it was an nounced today.
 This hangar will be the largest in the world, big enough to hold two trans-A Atlantic liners the size of the Leviathan. Plans for it originally were drafted when the navy depart ment contracted for the R-38, dirig- ible one-third larger than the R-34, which flew to the United States from England last year.
 According to the revised specified tions, the hangar will be 1000 feet long, SIS feed wide and 200 feet high. When completed, which probably will be next spring, the big ''air garage" and it's auxiliary power house, machine shops and officers quarters will cost about S3,577,O ,OOO, it was stated.
 The hangar will have electrically operated double doors, TIT by 136 feet each, which when opened wide will %ith the width of the structure con- stitute a windbreak of nearly 600 feet.
 Satisfactory progress has been real ized to date in the hangar's construc- tion, it was stated. The site has been cleared of pine and scrub oak stumps by two marine corps tractors, designed for hauling seven-inch guns through Flanders mud, but now operated as stump pullers The foundation and bases for the steel arches of the roof have been laid and several arches mounted.
 About 400 enlisted men and civilians are employed on the work, which IS being performed under the civil engl- neering corps of the navy.

DISSATISFIED WITH ACCOUNTING
New System Is Criticised by County
Treasurer Reynolds.

County Treasurer w. j. Reynolds
has received blanks from the state to
be used by the county in the future
accounting. These blanks are pro-
vided according 10 an act of the legis-
lature passed at the last session and Il
Is strongly limited that the laws in
ception was in the minds OF some OF
the printing firms OF the lower penin-
sula who seized upon the campaign
made for the adoption OF business
methods In appropriations. or in other
words the adoption OF the budget sys-
tenn, TO further a change In the ac-
counting system. The system adopt
ed Is so complicated and extended that
il runs the cost OF installing the sys-
tenn in the average county up to s2,-
900.
This Is rich picking for the big
blank printing firms that thrive on
municipal work and they are working
il to the limit. The system Is so
complicated that extra accountants
must be employed in the Offices of
many OF the institutions OF the state.
Mr.. Reynolds is an accountant him
self, and a good one, and his Judge
ment OF the worth OF a system is not
to be sneezed at. He says that the
system is no improvement upon the
old one in vogue in this county; in fact
Iron county had system better fitted
to its needs than the new system gives
IL.
The law makes II mandatory upon
counties TO adopt this system and with
S4 counties in the state the picking at
$4,000 per county is pretty good one.

BURRIDGE WANTED AT 500
Position OF Go. Engineer OF Chippewa
County Offered Him Mt Big Salary

A. L. Burridge, formerly county
engineer OF Iron county and one OF
the best known road builders in the
United States, is wanted by the Chip
pewa County Road Commission to
take the position OF county engineer
of Chippewa county. They have a
small chance OF getting Mr.. Burridge.
however, as he has decided to stay in
the contracting business and the
firm OF Holmes & Burridge has been
formed 10 do general contracting
work.
Mr. Burridge had charge OF most of
the road building operations OF the
A. r. r in France and knows road
work from A TO u. Before entering
the road game he was assistant divis-
ion engineer for the c. & n. w. and
built much OF the new construction
work on that road about fifteen years
ago
Mr., Burridge informs reporter for
The Diamond Drill that he will not
consider the Chippewa county offer
as he has firmly decided TO get into
business for himself He has many
years experience in road and rail-
road work in this country and his ex-
tensive experience with the A. Il. +.
places him In a position where he can
capitalize his knowledge to his own
advantage.
He has formed partnership with
Mr. Herman Holmes and will give his
entire attention to the construction
work. The firm has two contracts on
Iron county roads now and they are
in position to take more next year. as
they are well equipped with machin-
cry and supplies of all kinds. The
firm expects to finish up the gravel
ing work on the Beechwood road this
winter and will complete the Iron
River-Alvin road in about two months
next season. Other work is coming
up so that there is no necessity for
any contractor 10 be out of jobs these
days
