STATE HOUSE

| DR.. Leverett d. Bristol, State
health commissioner. has just been
able to secure two rooms at the
State House as new headquarters
for the Health Department and will
be installed there early in May. The
laboratories and the various divi-
sions of the Maine Health Depart
ment will continue at the health
building on the State Hospital
grounds on the other side of the
Kennebec river from the Capitol.
This announcement is sure to be
heralded with pleasure by health Of
ficials and workers all over Maine,
who have been accustomed to the
long walk over to the rather isolated
health building when on official bust
ness with Commissioner Bristol. DR..
Bristols office will now be on the
third floor of the State House, near
the Executive chambers, and he will
be as easily reached by the public
as are other State officials
-hios iJdilil NoOuit, director OIL
the Division of Public Health Nurs-
ing and Child Hygiene, will also
move her division headquarters to
the State House. as will Miss Esther
Schwartz, DIR. Bristol's private sec
rotary.
Besides the convenience to the
public at large in this move, it will
also serve to relieve congestion at
the health building which is already
far too small to accommodate the
growing staff of members. DIR. G. II.
Coombs, director of the Division of
Fenereal Diseases, who. with his
staff, has been most uncomfortable
lodged in the basement of the build
ing. will be given the pleasant and
roomy office on the ground floor oc-
cupied at present by Commissioner
Bristol, and other welcome changes
will also be made
Owing to the congestion of quar-
tiers. Dr. Bristol had previously re-
quested of the Legislature an appro-
priation for the building of new

from the most delicate pinks, azure

IRISH THEATRE HAS
CHILLY OPENING
Three Plays Are Presented
Before Small Audience.

Conditions yesterday afternoon were
not favorable TO the occasion at the Six
ty-third Street Theatre. described as "the
opening OF the second season of Deborah
Beirne's Irish Players" The hall. with
its singular acoustics, Is not an audience
room adapted to the display of plays in
dialect. Tho spectators had therefore
but an uncertain idea as to what was
going on in the dramas submitted. The
programmes were slow in arriving, which
did not tend to clarity the proceedings.
Evidently the expected audience was
even more tardy, and did not arrive a
all, as there were but few seats occupied.
Then the heating facilities had been but
imperfectly administered.
"rhe Three Comical Men" "The Bally-
cullen Band" and THE Keeper Of the
Lights" were announced. The audience
saw the latter two plays. In "The Keeper
OF the Lights" by Frank Hugh O'Donnell,
one OF the younger Dublin playwrights,
Mary Shaw. Walter Edwin and Edward
Cullen added trace of professionalism
to the programme. This short play In
four scenes shows an English lighthouse
keeper sticking to his duty in not allow
ing ships to land arms for the rebels. He
does what he regards as right. although
his son is killed and his wife appears to
go out of her head. The scene Is laid in
Ireland before the Easter rebellion. THE
Ballycullen Band" was attributed to
Brindsley MacNamara.
