ever, amateurs in taste or knowl-
edge of the theatre. They have pro-
duced successfully plays which have
been rejected by other managers who
were glad enough later to enjoy some
fruits of their popularity. Two dra-
mas given last winter by the Thea
tire Guild are still to be seen. Four
of the five it brought forward were
last season highly prosperous. Any
manager who could maintain such
an average would earn a fortune.
Naturally the effect of this success
has been to create other organiza-
tions Of the same kind. So this new
factor in theatre control will be more
powerful than ever in the coming
year. Luckily there have been many
theatres built. Otherwise the coop
erative enterprises might drive out
altogether the poor old commercial
managers who have come in long
enough for public criticism.

Aside from the artistic interest

Art Colony Galleries.

Following the custom that origi-
mated nearly score OF years ago with
a group of painters who foregather
at Old Lyme, Connecticut, the sum-
mer art colony exhibitions in New
England have become permanent In
stitutions at Old Lyme and Silver
mine: at Newport and Lenox: at
Provincetown and Gloucester. They
furnish agreeable and entertaining
diversion for visitors and profit to
some, at least, of the exhibiting paint
ers and sculptors.
For the most part these exhibitions
are held in temporary galleries. often
Ill suited for the effective display OF
art works. In recent years Newport
and Gloucester have been exceptions
to this rule. The Newport Art AS
ISOLATION has its own galleries, and
the Cape Ann painters have been
able to show their works I'm the pri-
vately built Gallery on the Moors.
This season. however. two galleries
owned by artists themselves will be
opened, one at Provincetown and the
other at Old Lyme. That on Cape
Cod is an old New England house

Hot, Dry Days Raise Milk Prices.

One of the large milk distributing
companies has announced that the
retail prices Of milk will be advanced
cent quart In August over the
July prices. Other companies are ex-
pected to follow this lead. Assuming
that the July schedule Of prices is
fair to farmer, distributor and con-
sumer, this increase Is certainly not
unreasonable.
The severely dry weather Of the late
spring and all of the summer so far
has naturally reduced the milk pro-
duction on the farms. Pasturage
lacks succulence, and the cows have
suffered from insufficient moisture as
they grazed. High temperatures al
ways have bad effect on dairy ami
mails. Under the circumstances the
increase in price cannot reasonably
cause surprise.
Even with this increase milk will
cost two cents quart less than it
did year ago. City dwellers should
be thankful for this.

Motor Car Killings.
New York's Death Rate From This
Cause Doubled in Seven Years.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: 1t is
hardly a matter of pride that the rate
of slaughter by motor cars and trucks is
low in New York in comparison with
that Of other cities 1t is a matter of
concern that the number killed each year
is increasing by leaps and bounds.
Since 1915 the rate of killed to the
100000 has increased from 6.S to IA in
New York city; or from total of 354
In 1915 to 7S0 In 1919. In tnirty-three
out Of sixty-six cities the rate was lower
than In New York city.
The killings in Los Angeles for 1919
were not double the number in New York
city. nor were they anywhere near
double. the rate being 21.1 to the 100. 900.
The highest rate was in Hartford. Conn.,,
27.s; the lowest, Richmond, Va, was SO.
In the registration area of the United
States 1t was s.4; in England and Wales
4; and In Paris 1t was only 2.35.
Most likely the increase in the rate Is
due to the increase in the number Of
motor vehicles. The death rate from
motor vehicle accidents Is a trine less
than that from airplane accidents, and
Is about four times that of street car
accidents. J. w. r.

Mound Bayou's Anniversary.

An exclusively negro town, Mound
Bayou. Mississippi. has just cele.
brated its thirty-fourth anniversary.
Founded in 1887 by J. T. MoNr.
GoMERY and BENJAMIN T. GREEN, its
growth has not been spectacular but
steady. Mound Bayou in its modest
way is flourishing. 1t has a popula-
tion OF 500 and has recently added
to its other substantial improvements
school building which cost $780,
600, every cent of which was con.
tributed by the colored people whose
children will attend the classes.
All this was dwelt upon with pride
at the anniversary celebration, at
which MONTGOMERY, who is one of the
wealthiest colored men in the South,
was present, as was also PHILIP M.
BROWN of the United States Depart.
ment of Labor. Mr.. Brown was the
principal speaker.
Since the death of GREEN responsi.
bility for the towns growth and
progress has fallen mostly on MoNT-
GoMERY. The community is dis.
tinctly creditable to the race.
May Mound Bayou continue to
grow and prosper. The spirit and
intelligent effort 1t represents give
promise OF the colored peoples ulti-
mate emergence into the light of
better days.

Use Real Economy Here.

The United States Government had
better be chary about spending money
on the old Federal building which
houses the City Hall station of the
post Office, and which 1t is proposed
to improve now to expedite the mail
service.
The old building is an eyesore ar
chitecturally. 1t is extravagant to
maintain. 1t is i'll designed for its
purpose. 1t is doomed by public good
taste and by the requirements of the
Government to be torn down soon.
It's removal was in sight when the
war came and knocked all plans for
internal improvements into a cooked
hat. But this interruption of we'll
considered scheme to better the
postal service, shelter the Federal
courts as they should be sheltered,
and put other United States off,
cials in suitable Offices is only tempo
rarily suspended. 1t is not aban-
doned. 1t will not be abandoned.
THE NEW York HERALD wants the
post Office clerks to have proper
working conditions and will oppose
no plan to provide these. But every
penny put into the Mullet monstros-
ity at Broadway and Park Row should
be spent with the understanding that
within a short time that monument
to waste is to be eliminated from
the city's chamber of horrors, and
whatever is done to it now is to en-
dure for only short time.
If President HARDING feels we
should postpone the erection OF a
much needed porte cochere on the
White House, which we expect to
have stand forever, we certainly
should not put money into build
ing everybody wants to tear down.
