PROTEST AGAINST SITE
FOR CITY TRASH PLANT

Inc owners of the square bounded
oy 1St and I'd, n and 0 streets north
east are opposed to its use hy the
Dlstrlct government as the site for A
and city stables.
Joseph I. Weller REPRESENTING tho
owners. made this statement TODAY
When ne appeared before the Commis
sloners to ask their approval of a hill
pending in Congress to permit the
hait tinore and Ohio railroad to build
an elevated sidetrack into the square
Several citizens associa tions in tho
northeast section protested at a pub
nc nearing against the erection of a
trash and asphalt plant so near to the
center OF the city. Congress failed
10 inciude IN the new District appro-
prlatlon act any money for the pur
chase Of trash plant site
Mr.. Weller told the Commissioners
tooay mat the owners of the property
feel that they should be allowed to
put the site to use for industrial pur-
poses. since it is classified as indus
trial territory under the zoning law.
He called attention to the fact that
all OF the other squares adjacent TO
the railroad yards north of Florida
avenue and for several blocks south
of that point already have railroad
sidings, and he saw no reason whV
this one square should not have them.
The bill calls for elevated sidings
into the square mentioned across n
street between 1st and I'd streets and
across. I'd street between street and
Florida avenue.
The contract under which the Com
mlSsioners are using privately
owned trash plant in Trinidad for the
disposal of city refuse expires Friday.
1t was awarded three years ago to a
private concern. but twenty months
ago the contractor was compelled to
turn the service over to the citv to
operate. finding that he could not CON
tinue to collect city refuse for the
amount the Commissioners were au-
thorized to pay for the service.
IT is understood the Commissioners
will endeavor to reach a new apreeo
ment with the private owners before
Friday for rent of the plant and equip
ment.

BABE RUTH. WHO MADE TWO
 HOMERS YESTERDAY AT LYCEUM

The great Babe Ruth whaled out two homers in the Yank-Cleveland tussla yesterday, but at the Lyceum the "co1ossus of the Swat also nailed the leather-covered sphere for trips around tho circuit. Ruth ia an artist of the silversheet and he enacts a re- marka ble role in the motherliest story ever told. "Headin' Home" The star scores a tremendous hit as mothers boy, and he uses his great bat as club shaping the destiny of himself and fellows. There are thrills, laughs, pathos,-in all, action typifies the mil lion dollar drama. It is a romantically human interest picture. The crowds lined out around the New Britain Ma tional Bank last evening.
 Hoyt's Revue have an unusual act in their Imaginable show. Put and Take.'' It is a sort of shadowplay, only the outlines of the actors and actresses can be seen. A great part! Really this Revue is top liner in musical com edy. There's nothing detrimental to the finer instincts of human nature put on the stage. Over an hour of solid entertainment.

FARNUM AND CHAPLIN
 AND VAUDEVILLE, FOX'S,

Fox's patrons yesterday afternoon fast night and this afternoon were treated to- two big feature pictures, showing Dustin Farnum and Ch1rlie Chaplin, and also four vaudeville acts that pleased. The big act is Frank Sidney and company in a whirlwind of Sensa tion. His feats of agility and the surprising turns which his act takes hold the audience breathless. Cecil and Mack, male and female team, bring a good collection of jazz, one or two amusing monologists and some intricate dance steps, while Rector and Lee, two girls, swish through their number with breezy syncopation that adds to the charm of their songs. AL bin and Kenney have an acrobatic act which makes their watchers breathe hard for them
 In The Primal Law Dustin Far mum has the role of a who1e-hearted westerner who fights a mans fight against crookedneSs and wrong and, of course wins the girl of his dreams. Charlie Chaplin as usual evokes no
 title mirth with his antics in The Bank" a typical Cha plin comedy. The Fox News brings the News of the day before the eyes of the watchers. If they cannot or do not read, they can at least see.

AFFAIRS OF ANATOL"
 RIG HIT AT PALACE

Packed houses yesterday again claim that The Affairs of Anatol' now play ing tho Palace for an entire week. is the best photoplay they have ever seen.
 Securing $30,00o worth of furniture for a single interior setting and then smashing the outfit before the camera produces photoplay realism, but at a well-nigh prohibitive cost. Yet that is what Cecil B. DeMil1e did in his Par amount production, ''The Affairs of Anatol"
 The setting in question serves as ;a background 1 or a part of the story portrayed by Wallace Reid, Gloria Swanson, Elliott Dexter, Bebe Daniels. Wanda Hawley Theodore Roberts and other all-star players. It is an ultra luxurious apartment and Howard Hig- gin, production manager for Cecil 5. DeMil1e productions, waa instructed to spare no expense.
 At the climax of this episode, Wal lace Reid was instructed to run amuck, smashing everything breakable in the set. The orders were comprehensive and Reid obeyed them to the letter. Not one stick of furniture remained

BACK AGAIN.

Somehow Mrs. Ladybug's friends missed her. The orchard seemed quite different place after she vanished inside the farmhouse to stay there all winter long. In spite of her sharp tongue and her prying ways people discovered-now that she was gone that they had liked Mrs. Ladybug more than they knew.
 While she was with them in the or chard they had often wished she wouldn't ask so many questions. But now the days seemed very long with out Mrs. Ladybug to inquire how and why and when and where.
 And then-then a rumor flashed from lip to lip all the way cross the garden and the orchard and the meadow: Mrs. Ladybug is back again! She didn't stay in the farm house a week"
 And sure enough! the rumor proved to be true. Mrs. Ladybug. looking rather foolish. appeared in her old haunts among the apple trees. She acted as if something had occurred 10 upset her. And though she seemed glad to be greeted by all her old companions. she didn't want them to ask her a single question as to why she hadn't spent the whole winter, instead of only one week of early fall, in Farmer Greens house.
 If she thought her neighbors weren't going to question her she was sadly mistaken.
 Only a little while before they had asked her a thousand and one ques- tions about where she was going to live during the winter. And now they were all just as curious to know why she had returned. But this time they

She did manage to get through high school. But she never gave even as much as a thought to college. She knew she couldn't go. It was too costly and, having just slipped through high school by the skin of her teeth, she knew trying to work her way through college would be useless. She hadn't a good enough foundation.
 Anyhow the younger children were becoming more expensive every day and any money that she might earn was needed.
 So Nell went to work and every Saturday her money was turned over to her mother to help with the general expenses.

DOMESTIC LABOR IS
 SHORT IN NEW YORK
Maids and Buffers Prefer Outside
 Work This Year

New York, Sept. 27.-Domestic la Dor is so scarce in New York that in thousands of homes, normally we'll supplied with servants, the mistress is doing her own housekeeping. Maids and buffers are said by employment bureaus to prefer being out of work to taking jobs at less than the high wage scales prevailing last year.
 Of many reasons advanced by en- ployment agencies for the failure of servants and employers to agree, one of tho most common is that prospec- tive maids seek work only because their husbands are jobless and are re- fused places because prospective em- ployers will not consider applicants for temporary positions.
 Prevailing wage scales are said by employment agencies to be: Cooks, $50 to s70 a month; general house. workers, $40 to $50: chambermaids, $100 to s125 a month with board and lodging.

xS8 SLEEPY TIME TALES K
 The Tale of Mrs. Ladybug
(By Arthur Scott Bailey)

asked her a thousand and two ques- tions.
 You couldn't say that her answers weren't satisfying, because she didn't make any answers at all.
 Of course, things couldn't go on like that forever. People had to know what had changed Mrs. Lady bugs plans. And in order to per- suade the stubborn lady to explain matters. a few of her friends hinted that they expected they would have to go to Farmer Green himself and learn the truth.
 You may ask him if you wish" Mrs. Ladybug told them. "But it won't do you any good. He can't tell you what happened because he doesn't know himself"
 Maybe the farmhouse was cold" Chirpy Cricket suggested.
 Mrs. Ladybug made no comment on that remark.
 Perhaps the roof leaked" said Daddy Longlegs.
 Still no sign from Mrs Ladybug.
 She found that the farmhouse wasn't wind-proof." said Daddy Long, legs wife.
 And Mrs. Ladybug didn't deny it: nor did she say that that was so.
 Then Buster Bumblebee made one of his blundering speeches.
 ''It was a short winter, anyhow" he said.
 Mrs. Ladybug's neighbors couldn't help tittering. And somehow their amusement stung her into telling the truth about the whole affair, right then and there.
 Mrs Green and I didn't get on we'll together she confessed. Copyright 1921 by The Metropolitan

to escape the burden. Couldn't trust the little folk with her. So Fanny went to school regularly with out a thought of responsibilities. She was considered bright. By the time she finished high school the family income had increased so nor mai school was a possibility. So Fanny went to normal school and finally married a professor.
 Emily, the next sister, went to college and married a physician.
 Edith whom it was possible to send to an exclusive finishing school married a financier.
 And then they all rested on their oars and smiled with a sort of self satisfaction.
 While Fanny continued working.
