Uses of Vaudeville.

Vaudeville has always been @ per-
fectly comprehensive part of our
national system Of amusements else
1t could not have become firmly es-
tablished in this country. At cost
usually lower than the rates or the
theatres IL has supplied varied and
usually harmless diversion to it's
patrons. It's purveyors in recent years
have jealously protected their pro-
grammes from whatever might give
offence. 1t Is characteristic of vaude-
vile in tho United States that it has
become family amusement. This is
not true OF the cafe-concert in France.
the Tingeltangel in Germany or the
vaudeville productions OF other lands.
Only in this country may vaudeville
be Justly called domestic.
To comprehend the permanence
and moreover the Importance OF this
branch or amusements In the United
States It is necessary only to realize
that the B. +. Keith Vaudeville Cir.
cult IS now preparing TO celebrate the
thirty-third year OF its existence
This organization and its rsmifica-
tlons stretch all over the United
States, 20 that the anniversary will
be extensively observed. The ceie-
bratious will have cultural and patri-
otic features which are designed to
be OF benefit TO the patrons OF the the
atres; therefore nearly every city OF
Importance in the country will share
in these additional advantages.
There never was a time in its his.
tory when the purpose Of vaudeville
in amusements was as important as
It Is to-day. Wise managers are con.
vincel that the public is seeking
entertainment at moderate prices.
Industrial conditions make II lmpos.
sible for patrons Of the theatres to
pay as much for pleasure as they
spent in the last three years.
This state Of feeling prepares for

. America Awheel.

In the first six months Of 1921
there were registered in the forty
eight United States and the District
of Columbia 9.245,195 passenger au-
tomobiles, trucks and commercial
vehicles, 2S,114 trailers and 177,234
motorcycles. For the registration
Of these vehicles and for drivers
licenses $1OS,213,165 was paid into
the public treasures. This sum was
S6,000,000 more than the receipts
from similar sources in the twelve
months of 1920. OF the money col
lected for motor car registration and
drivers licenses last year s97.671,742
was available for road work. The
first six months of this year yielded
$101,793,41G for this purpose.
These figures testify to the con-
stant and steady increase in the pop
ularity OF the automobile. Statisti-
clans will be able to erect on them
a convincing picture OF the industry
which produces them. Those who do
not live in world of figures, how
ever, will still get from the endless
stream of vehicles on any well paved
highway near New York their most
vivid picture Of America awheel.

II can meet the demand for less ex-
pensive entertainment as no other
form OF theatrical enterprise can.
Luckily there viii be an ample sup
ply of this kind of entertainment.
The Shuberts have recently begun
to devote part OF their far reaching
theatrical apparatus to vaudeville
performances. and with other con-
Germs also at work in this field there
should be no shortage of this demo-
cratic diversion. which has acquired
new Importance for it's audiences.

Complaint of . Motorist.
Treated Discourteously, He Says, foI
Missing Traffic Signal

TO TItE NEW York Herald: Never
until Columbus Day. 1921, did realize
the social and economic standing which
attaches itself to a New Yorker.
I was crossing Grand Concourse by
the way OF Fordham road, driving a
fivver sedan bearing Connecticut mark
ers. The night was cold and the win
dows were y, to protect my sick child
and aged wife from the first blast OF
winter. In this way J. missed the blast
from the policeman's whistle.
Halt you lunkhead, and open up
that door! DO you want, to spend the
night In the lookup? have more trouble
with youse blokes from Connecticut
At length i began to realize my mis-
take as this New Yorker expounded the
traffic laws OF his city to me. escaped
the lookup. but with shattered nerve
and broken morale reached home un-
scathed. d. b. CHASE

Consider This Stovepipe.
With All the Unemployment There
Is Nobody to Mend II.

To THE New YORK HERALD: Much
has been said and much more written
In the past few months on the subject
of unemployment Why Is 1t, then. that
II Is almost Impossible to get any work
done?
. We have been trying for weeks to get
a stovepipe repaired and are continually
put off with promises but no fulf.ment.
II there are so many unemployed and
so much demand to have work done
why cannot the two be linked up to-
gether so that the work can be done ?
The same situation holds with regard
to plumbing repairs and oil sorts o.
odds and ends Of like character.
1t begins to look as IL the hue and cry
OF unemployment were more or less de-
scrIptive OF condition which is myth
cal, or ut any rate voluntary. because
there are certainly few willing hands
among those who are not actively. EN-
ployed. SIDNEY G. Kooy.

Jay Cookies Memorial.

1t Is altogether fitting that Duluth,
Minnesota, should be the site OF a
statue, such as has just been un
yelled wit;lin its boundaries, in
honor Of JAY Cooke. Mr.. COOKE is
known as the Father of Duluth
the city PROCTOR KNOTT described as
"the zenith city of the unsalted seas. y
The Northwest owes much to Mr.
Cooke.
But a memorial to JAY COOKE
would be appropriate in any Ameri-
can settlement. His financial genius
was freely put at the service Of the
Government during and after the
civil war. His energy was spent In
raising money to support the armies
and the navy. He was as ingenious
and as persistent in his task Of fill.
ing the Treasury as was the most
modern Of Liberty bond statesmen.
He was a tower OF strength in the
days after the war when the edifice
Of public credit was undergoing re-
pair. He made all Americans his
debtors.
Such men as JAZZ CeoKE seldom
receive during their lives the recog-
milton that Is due to them. Time
puts them in their proper relation to
events in public understanding.
