Of John Charles McNeill's poems. Mr..

to give his poems with natural ex-

We regret that we cannot print the
poems that we heard, but copies of
McNeill's poems seem to be scarce, so
that it was impossible this time.
Some of those which Mr.. Rowan in

"THE RESTLESS SEX," ROBERT
w. CHAMBERS STORY AT
PRINCESS MONDAY AND
TUESDAY

Robert Vi. Chambers popular SOC
iety novel, "The Restless Sex" has
been picturized by Cosmopolitan
Productions and will be the feature
attraction at the Princess Theatre
next Monday and Tuesday. Marion
Davies is the star and the supporting
cast includes such prominent players
as Carlyle Blackwell and Ralph Kel-
lard. Robert 2. Leonard directed.
"The Restless Sex" deals with the
woman who is not satisfied to be just
wife, but wishes to attain niche
for herself in the world of art. Ste
phanie Cleland, a pretty New York
society girl, is the central figure, and
her ambitions and romance form the
story. Lavish backgrounds, including
ball scene that is said to surpass
anything of its kind ever filmed, are
features. An automobile wreck forms
one of the most thrilling scenes. More
than six hundred persons were used
IN some of the episodes.
Marion Davies is said to do the
best work of her career in the role OF
the impetuous heroine. 1t is Para
mount picture.

broad was the foundation upon

McDougall referred to the fact that

The deeper and sounder you sleep the better

EXTENT AND REDUCTION OF,
THE CIVIL SERVICE.

The United States Civil Service
Commission today issued it's sems-
annual statement regarding tho CA
tent of the Federal executive civil
service and reductions therein, as
follows:
The Federal executive civil for,e
in the District Of Columbia was re-
duced by 1884 employees during
the year ended July 81, 1921, and
by 1885 during tho perio from No
vember IL, 1918 to July 81, 1921.
Tho reduction throughout the Unit
cd States, including tho District OF
Columbia. was 93.634 for the year
ended July 81, 1921. and more than
100000 during the period from No.
vomber II. 1918, to July 81, 1921,
The reductions continue steadily, but
now, of course, more slowly.
On Jupe 80, 1916, there were So.
269 employees in the District of
Columbia, making the total on that
date 439,79S. On November, IL, 1918,
at the height of the war expansion,
tho number Of employees in the Dis
trict of Columbia was l1T,700. Ow-
ing to rapid Quotations ut distant
places of employment, 1t was found
impracticable to compile strictly nc
curate figures for the force outsiao
the District Of Columbia during the
war period. AS noar rs can DO estl-
mated, the force outside the Dis
trict of Columbia, making the total
mately 100000 OIL November Ill
1918. This is conservative est,-
mate; it is probably too low. Adding
the number in tho District of Co,
lumbia on that dato, tho approxi-
mate total number of employees OH
tho date tho armistice was signed
WAS 017,760. On July 81, 1920, there
were 00.550 Federal civil employees
in tho District of Columbia and
6O0,557 in branches outside the Dis
trict Of Columbit, making tho tot,,l
on that dntc 69l,l16. On July 81,
1921, there were 1866 employees III
the District of Columbia and 5l8,6l7
in branches outside, the totnl on
that date being 507,482.
All figures named include Federal
executive positions classified under
tho civil-service law and those not
so classified
