perb story, THE Great Moment"

scored triumph on its presentation
at the Wilson Theatre yesterday The
beautiful young star was at her best
in the role of Nadine, the gypsy,
whose love for Bayard Delaval, an
American mining engineer, leads to
highly dramatic situations. Miss
Swanson was quite artistic in her in
depreciation of an exacting and try

and County Administration, to be
held September 10, 20. and 21.
Undoubtedly this conference will
be >very helpful writes Mr.. Baker
The schedule of subjects to be dis
cussed covers a wide range and Is
particularly wise, as it seems to me,
in identifying the commercial and SO
ciaI ASPECTS of municipal adminlstra-
tion with the financial considerations,
all of them being tied together in the
mind of any really constructive NUM-
cipal Executive"
Mr.. Hoover's letter, after express
ing his regrets at not being able to at
tend and his best wishes for the sue
cess of the difference, continues:
The greatess public service today
is devotion to the upbuilding for our
community institutions, our town
improvements. our schools, and all
that multitude OF volunteer institu-
tions in promotion of education, re
creation and commerce. The war
created a great lot of people who
wish to lean on Federal and State
governments Our country was built
by pushers, not leaners. Progress
of the nation is simply the sum total
of local progress. We will go back
wards the moment we destroy the
initiative of our people by constant
extension of federal authority

Moreover. the situation is now re-
