The Following statement as TO the
progress being made toward raising
FUNDS necessary for the Old Womana
Home. comes from a member of the
committee: Human nature is a most
curious thing. Very little progress is
being made and unless interest in re-
yived at once and those in a posi-
tion TO do so respond literally, we
will have to confess failure and that
in spite of the hard fight the commit
tee has made to raise the money.
Less than half has been subscribed
something under $4,000, and of this
amount about half was given by twelve
men.
A list was recently made up by the
committee of one hundred people who
had not subscribed to the fund, and a
letter, appealing for aid in this worthy
cause, sent to each. Would you be-
lieve that only five replies were re-
ceived, although every one of the one
hundred to whom letters were sent
were wealthy or extremely we'll off

would meet with a prompt and gen.
erous response. Many simply don
know how badly the Old Woman's
Home needs this money; they don't
see the home and its occupants; they
don't realize the number who should
be taken care of but cannot be on
account of the room. Others, no doubt,
with common human failing of pro-
crastination read that letter, had
flash of feeling for the poor old souls
alone on earth with no family to care
for them and decided to send a check

SHAKESPEARE DAY is
TO BE CELEBR RATED

Schools n ug h put the United
States are again planning to observe
April % as Shakespeare day, accord
ing to reports received by the bureau
of education, department of the inter-
ior, which has just issued an official
publication containing suggestions for
appropriate school celebrations.
Acting of Shakespeare plays by the
children themselves is advocated by
the bureaus publication as one of the
best ways to celebrate the day. MY
ideal of a Shakespeare day" says H.
G. Wells. the novelist, who is quoted in
the bureau bulletin, lis a day on
which. in every school, Shakespearian
plays are acted by the children them
selves. The one person, the only per-
son, who ought to speak of Shake
speare on Shakespeare day is Shake
speare himself So let Shakespeare be
read and played for our Shakespeare
day celebration in the schools, and let
the rest of us keep silence while he
speaks"
Whatever plans are m e for
Shakespeare celebrations in C h o /
they should be pleasurable. asserts
Professor Caroline F. E. Spurgeon. of
Bedford college, London. now on a lee
ture tour in the United States
Let the day be one of enjoyment
she says. The reason why children
do have an unpleasant association
with Shakespeare is that the study of
him is made lifeless and dull. He is not
to them the most laughter loving the
most sympathetic of human beings,
but he is some one who wrote a large
number of intolerable notes in order
to explain the obscure words and
strange phrases and faults of gram
mar and spelling in which he seems
to have delighted. I believe that the
institution of a day like this might
sway some of these misconceptions
if il We're arranged so as to be a liv-
ing thing in which there would be act
ing and singing. the children them
selves taking part"
Celebration of the Shakespeare an
niversary offers a particularly good
opportunity. Percival Chubb points
out, for coordinating work done in a
group of interrelated subjects. Litera-
ture music, art, the handicrafts (such
as shopwork and sewing) and physical
education. he says. are all involved in
an adequate Shakespeare celebration.

DIPPING WRIT is
MADE PREEMPTORY

The mandamus cases brought by the
state live stock sanitary board against
w. j. Grimlar and L. G. Hanks, of
the northern part of the county came
to a hearing before Circuit Judge
Campbell at DeFuniak Tuesday and in
the Hanks case the alternative writ
was made preemptory. requiring him
to dip his cattle in accordance with
the rules and regulations of the board.
Grimlar had sold his cattle to another
party who dipped then in accordance
with the regulations.
1t is understood that these cases
were brought by the board as an
evidence on its part to take all neces-
sary steps to secure enforcement of
the law, and that unless there is
prompt compliance on the part of all
other cattle owners, further like pro-
ceedings will be brought and in ad-
dition prosecutions in the court of
record will also be instituted 1t is not
the desire of the board to take drastic
action, but they are going to see that
the law is enforced and ticks in Es-
Gambia county eradicated. Messrs.
Watson & Pasco were retained by
those interested in the enforcement
of the law to assist States Attorney r.
A. McGeachy, who under the law rep
resents the board in cases of this kind.

LEGION PLANS
MEMORIAL DAY
POSTS THROUGHOUT COUNTRY
ARE CALLED ON BY NATIONAL
COMMANDER TO TAKE PART IN
EXERCISES.

Franklin DOlier. national comman-
der today announced the plan for car
rying out the instructions of the Min
neapolis convention in decorating on
NJ e mo orial Day the CRANES of
Americans who fell in the war and
lie buried on foreign soil. The plan,
as outlined in a bulletin just issued
is as follows:
The National Executive Committee
at their meeting in Washington.
March cath, discussed the question of
the proper decoration for the graves
of those of our comrades who paid the
supreme sacrifice and lie buried III
foreign soil.
1t was unanimously agreed that The
American Legion should, through vol
untary contributions, raise sufficient
funds to properly decorate the grave
of every American sailor in Europe
on this coming Memorial Day.
1t is, therefore. requested that each
state department call this matter to
the attention of all posts with the sug-
gestion that where a post is able and
disposed so to do. it remit for this
purpose five dollars or more, to the
treasurer at national headquarters
through it's respective department ad-
jutant.
National headquarters is now ar
ranging with the organization of the
American Legion in both France and
England for handling this matter.
Remittaces should reach national
headquarters not later than April oath,
in order that they may be remitted to
France and England, although special
arrangements can probably be made
to cable later remittances where posts
have been unavoidably delayed. This,
of course, is matter which will ap-
peal strongly to every individual mem
ber of the legion and many small con-
tributions are preferred.
Poses with large memberships which
desire to forward more than five dol
lars of course may use their own dis
cretion.
Owing to the keen interest which
many outside of the legion will take
in this matter, there is nothing to pre-
vent department organizations ac-
cepting voluntary contributions from
those outside of the legion, but, never
theless, anxious to share in a small
way toward the decoration of the
graves.

WEST END.

Unqualified praise for a perform ance of. rare sweetness and charm was the verdict of the large audiences that<yesterday witnessed "Old Lady 31,'' the Metro screen production starring Emma Dunn, which was shown as the feature attraction at the West End theatre.
 In "Old Lady 31." which was adapted by June Mathis from Rachel Crothers' celebrated stage play, Miss Dunn gives her thoroughly delightful impersonation of Angie Rose, the
 wife of the improvident seafaring man, Abe Rose. Playing this part on the stage during the years run of the
 piece in New York under the direction of Lee Kugel. Miss Dunn added new laureIs to her fame as Americas pre- mier exponent of sweet mother parts.
 The story of "OId Lady 31,'' whick relates the experiences of Abe and
 Angie in an old women's home-he as 'told lady 31''-is replete with charm and an abundance of comedy touches There is many a heart throb in the | narrative also. Especially when Angie | and Abe bid farewell to their olt | dwelling, with it's honeysuckle vines
 and Angie hesitates to pick a few 1 flowers, asking if she still has thu right, now that the house is to be solo 1 over their heads.
 The antics of the quaint character | in the old women's home are delic | ious and provoked gales of merri
 ment. Henry Harmon scored a sue cess as Abe. He played the same rolt on the stage. It will be shown agaiI i tonight.

 jockeys and stable boys near Maison La Fitte, Paris, gives rise to the question whether or not such a shell ter is necessary. MT. Gould, Of course, is to be commended for his interest in the welfare of the youth of the turf. In these wild days of sponge stuffing and doping of horses it is plain the turf, at home, as well as abroad, could stand little spirit ua1 uplift.
 But we find it difficult to believe that such home as MT. Gould con templates is essential to gladden. the lives of young men who earn such sums as the present day jockey. The chief concern of most Of our jockeys is the brand of the next limousine. The average rider, in fact, earns from s5,000 to 5000 a season. Headiiners i make treble those sums.
