 Benefit Play a Success
 A capaofty audience filled the audi torium Thursday night to witness the performance of Mammals Af- fair" The cast gave a highly anus ing rendition of this famous play. Tony Boetto, the hell hop, started things off by showing his skill at listening at the keyhole, Eldon Har- ris made a snob that lived up to the highest blue blood traditions in the part of Henry Narchant. Louise Jackson as Mrs. Marchant was a typical naughty and overbearing sen tifnentalist. She did the part with all the aristOcratic embellishments ef the four hundred. Mrs. Bundy was Q delightful matchmaker and steered the hesitating hero right to- ward his destiny in spite of his oft repeated warnings to her to keep out of his affairs. In doing the part of Mamma, Beatrice Lange handled the difficult role with marked skill. She was always sure she was going to faint or that her heart was miss ing a beat and kept the audience in almost continuous laughter. Friday

Gatlin was especially strong as Dr. Jansen. He was easy, and natural. even in the most tense situations in the scenes in which he had to calm the mysteries of the emotional ladies entrusted to his charge, his work was most satisfying and ex- cellent.
 Miss LaVeeda Leister, as Eve, lived up to the high standing she has won as an actress upon the pro- fessional stage and in the Normal plays in which she has delighted so many people. She was a typical, overwrought and emotionally swayed daughter until pr. Jansen took her case and in the quite different act ing that the succeeding scenes de- manded, she showed much versatil- amusing determination in the last scene to put the doctor in his place made a fitting close to the leading part which she handled so ably.

Report Industry
 Increasing Gains
 Made Tn October

industry and trade in general continued during November to make and hold the gains made in October, although there is evil dence that part of this gain was seasonal and is now falling off, says the December report just is- sued by the National City Bank of New York. The unusually warm weather in all parts of the country during the latter part of November affected retail trade to considerable extent. Holiday buying, however, is beginning to assert itself and will serve in some measure to compensate for the falling off in seasonabIe goods at this time.
 The fundamental difficulty that has existed all through this year, that is, the disparity between the price of farm products and all raw materials and the price of manufactured goods, continues to hamper the return of industrial activity. Half of the population continues to have its buying power so seriously curtailed that any general improvement in trade while this condition obtains is out of the question. In fact, the prices of some of the principal farm products made new lows during the past month, although showing an encouraging rally at the close.

NEED ARTICLES FUR
 CHRISTMAS BOXES
 FUR DISABLED MEN

Christmas boxes for disabled vete- rans are being packed here by mem bers of the Woman's Auxiliary of the American Legion ready for distri- button through the various posts of the Legion to the thousands of eX- soldiers who are forced to spend their holiday season in hospitals and sani- tariums.
 More material is needed for these boxes of cheer. Almost anything that appeals to a man will prove accept able and will be gathered up by mem bers of the Frank Luke, Jr., post of the American Legion if a postal or telephone call Is sent to headquarters here on Seventh avenue. Oranges. apples, dates and other fruit are de- sired as well as articles of wearing apparel, safety razors, smoking sets, books and other merchandise in tended for the use of man.
 Many people are packing the boxes and sending them intact to the American Legion headquarters here. This saves work on the part of the busy auxiliary members and lends an Individuality to each box which will be much appreciated by the recipient.
 Wednesday will be the last day of box packing and all material should De m DE that llIlle- IHtSe bdthaSeS will be distributed locally to a large extent but some of them will be sent to outside posts of the American Legion for distribution. At such places as Tucson, Prescott and other points where a great many service men are sent to regain their health it is impossible for the American Legion posts to provide boxes for all the men in the district. So the Frank Luke Jr. post is getting the boxes ready early in order that the surplus
 supply will reach other posts in time | for Christmas.

In the whole category of men there is no such thing as the average man in either looks or physique.
 Men are often classed roughly as being either tall or short, stout or slender yet each indi- viduaI has his own peculiarities- possibly found in no other.
 Even the color of the hair or eyes or the complexion generally may determine definitely the pat tern or cut of suit d man should wear.
 Tailored clothes are designed to fit the particular man and his peCuliarities. Non i l IT Q clothes do not have the possibili- ties for alteration to immediately 1 accOmm odate. let us say an in stance in which one shoulder is lower than the other or a slight l irregularity in the waist or legs. Tailored clothes such as the l products of the BYRD TAILOR | ING COMPANY shops fit the 1 man into the suit and takes care l of any iregularity or peCuliarity
 of the individual just as the suit 1 is actually being made. We are fitted to give the time and effort to the construction of your suit the only effort on your
 part being the choosing of the
 necessary materials, And in this
 we are always anxious to give

Veteran Woods
Fooled by Benev-
client Stranger

Brunswick, Me-, May 26-Edmund
Woods, overseas veteran of this town,
saw his feet placed on the road to
fortune Wednesday by benevolent
stranger-but there was a catch, and
his feet slipped off the road.
A man giving his name as j. I.
Monroe, representing a large Boston
engineering firm, called at a local
garage saying that he wanted a man
to take to Canada, for SITS a month
and found, to work as chauffeur on a
big job this engineering concern had
across the border Woods applied
and was accepted by Monroe.
The pair went to Bath, where Mon
roe told Woods to have a physical ex.
animation in the Emergency Hospi-
tai of the Bath Iron Works, in order
that he might be given accident in
surance. Inside the hospital nothing
was known of Monroe, and they did
not examine men for insurance.
When Woods, thinking there was a
mistake, came out to rejoin Monroe
the ex-soldier's benefactor had gone
and SO had Woods bag, $40, an
overcoat and suitcase.
No trace of the missing man and
property has been found since. Mon
roe is described as about 35 years OF
age, five feet, eight inches tall, weight
about 155 pounds. good looking and
well dressed

VIM. H. Whitney
Seeks a Pardon

Concord, n. H., May 26-The Gov
ernor and Council Wednesday took
under Amusement a petition for a
pardon for William H. Whitney of
Langdon, who has served six months
OF term of one year for raising a
check of the town of Langdon. while
he held office there. Judge Jesse NJ.
Barton, of Newport, told the cover
nor and advisers that the original
reason for pushing the charge against
Whitney was a wish to hold him
safely while the circumstances con-
nected with the disappearance of a
former wife were being investigated
son having told a sensational story
i"of murder long kept secret.
Whitney's present wife made a
plea for him and former Selectman
William Hall of Langdon also urged
that he be released, stating that the
murder inquiry had led to nothing
and sentiment in Langdon was that
the man had been punished enough
for his offence against the town.
County Solicitor Henry n. Hurd of
Sullivan county asked that no pardon
be granted. He alleged that whitney
had in different places been known
by different names and that under
the name of Doolittle, he is now
wanted in Maine for offences not I'M
like the one committed in Langdon.
His release, the county solicitor add
ed, would mean merely that Maine
officers would soon take him in Gus
tody. Whitney was arrested last
fall at the home of his wife at Rich
mond. Ne.
