Blossom Time" is one of the most
interesting light operas which New
York has heard in many seasons. The
story is built around the life of Franz
Schubert, with much Of fact included,
and the score Is written from his
songs. Bertram Peacock has the role
of Schubert and Mitzi plays the girl
who transferred her love from him to
his best friend. The music Is lovely, Of
course, and the entire production is
of particularly high standard.

VOTING A PRIME DUTY.
3GGG0C00C 9 C000CC0,

Washington, d. c. - We are hearing
frequent appeals to the people to per-
form their duties as citizens. Recent
ly resident of the staate Of Virginia
wrote to President Harding calling his
attention to the fact that in that state
in 1918 there were only $4,000 votes
cast, while in 1920, with equal suf-
frage in force, there were $4,000 bal
lots put in the boxes.
Manifestly there Is not such a diff
ference in voting population due to
equal suffrage. The only explanation
is that either the men had not been
voting before and came to the polls in
larger numbers or the men continued
to stay at home and the increase was
made up of women's votes. The total
population Of Virginia within the vot-
ing age shows that there is yet large
proportion not exercising the elective
II "iOhioSs commenting upOh thio
President Harding asserted, among
other things, that there Is no more
important duty for the citizen than
that of voting on the one day Of the
year when his vote means something"
1t is important that a man should
express his opinions to his fellow cit
liens on any and perhaps all of the
days of the year, but his efforts are but
hollow mockery II he stays at home
on election day. The man who COM
plains OF the condition Of public af-
fairs and then fails to vote, is lacking
somewhere in his common sense
equipment.
The sentiment expressed by Presi-
dent Harding are the same in effect as
those voiced by John T. Adams on the
occasion of his taking the chairman
ship of the Republican National Com
mittee some time ago, when he re-
marked, "In a republic like ours pol

New York. The story about the
shoemaker's children going shoeless
was always sad enough. But when the
law steps in and prevents a tailor
from pressing his own clothes, II is
almost tragic. Benjamin Minken lives
In the rear of his store at 11S Buffalo
avenue, Brooklyn. Therefore when he
prepared to be all dressed up for
church, 1t was the natural thing for
him to carry his own trousers into the
front room on Sunday morning and
use his good, heavy iron on them. He
was arrested for impairing the peace
of the day, because 1t was in his tailor
shop that he was doing the work.

a man to do that. My wife might darn
her own stockings on Sunday, mightn't
she?" Magistrate Dooley agreed with

too blue, indeed.
