II We Did-But We Don't

Someone has said:
IF we noticed little pleasures
As we notice little pains;
If we quite forgot our losses
And remembered all our gains;
If we looked for peoples virtues,
And their faults refused to see;
What comfortable, happy,
Cheerful place this world would

VALUABLE DOGS STOLEN
FOR REWARD OR TO BE
SOLD, NEW L. A. TRAFFIC

Los ANGELES, Cal, Nov. S.
Traffic in valuable dogs, stolen for
the reward eventually paid for their
return is being investigated by the
Los Angeles police.sasfollowing re =
ports of the operations throughout
the city of fashtonably dressed wo-
men engaged in@the' new and highly
remuneiative crime.
The alleged method of the young
women is to drive through fashion,
able and exclusive residential dis
tricts where valuable dogs are
known to be, becoming friendly with
the animals, spiriting them away and
returning them later in answer to
offering rewards.
When rewards are not advertised
it is said the women ship the dogs
to cOnfederates in other cities who
dispose Of them to new owners.

CHINA IN EARNEST
IN NEW OPIUM WAR

| PEKING. Nov. S.-"Opium must be
abolished" says the pres, dent of Chill
ma, in a forceful mandate recently is
sued, The government has appointed
a committee to Investigate the traffic,
The members include the military and
civil authorities of every province. A
member from the international Anti
Opium Society will be given a seat
also. The various educational, mis-
sionary and anti-vce societies of all
China are requested to cooperate.
1--WE mean business this time" say
officials. The committee is armed
with full powers, and its work has the
unan' nous approval of the cabinet.
The situation is described as serious,
for the growth of the poppy has been
steadily on the increase. This is laid
to the military, who derive large prof
its in the collection of opium taxes and
the granting of illegal permits. Full
publicity is now proposed, and the
war lords must face the issue Wheth-
cr they wish it or not,
The investigation will be carried on
when the poppy is in bloom, so that
thcre will be no chance for conceal
ment In the past many of the inspec-
tors have been handicapped for lack
of tangible evidence. With public
opiu on really stirred it is hoped to get
results.
The opium sellers have begun de-
fense. In many places they claim that
whole communities would be deprived
of their sole means of livelihood if
they were not permitted to grow the
poppy They also assert that until
Burma and India and other members
Of the British Far Eastern colonies
are also prohibited from raising this
crop there will be no appreciablc de- !
crease in the manufacture or sale of |
opium. In the mountainous districts |

The Elizabethans did not post the
names of their stars in great electric
letters over the playhouse doors, nor
in great black letters in the daily
news sheets. But that is because they
had neither stars nor electric lights
nor daily press. And yet, they man.
aged to keep their public well inform
ed. There were silk flags and players
professions, and handbills were deliv-
cred through the countryside by the
actor himself, preceded by drummer.
Thaler's description of the playbills

in great letters, would seem the most

troubles that arose from lack of re-

In his shakespeare to Sheriden,"
Alwyn Thaler, assistant professor Of
English at the University Of Califor-

cination of the theatre Of today and
yesterday.
If it is true the modern theatre
is naught but commercial enter
prise we find a cure for our pessimism
in the theatre of old. A study Of
players, playwrights, mahagers and
playgoers of old, shows the web Of
theatrical life to be woven today Of
the same mingled yarn that gave it
color and variety in Shakespeare
time.
In olden days, as today, existed
great producing managers, theatrical
capitalists, trusts, actors unions, &C.

between players and nobility, furnish

longings were restored to him and

hailed a cab to take drive around
the city.

cabby repeated a bit sternly.
The late lunatic turned doubly pale,
drew his 2O-kronen gold piece from
his pocket and trembling confessed it
was his sum total of wealth. The
cabby looked at the goldpiece Al
though it were curiosity. 1t dawned
upon him presently that it was of gold
and that it was genuine.

State Building
And Loan League
Warren A. Singles, Of Newark Trust
Company, on Board Of
Directors

The building and loan associations
throughout the State formed a State
Association last week, at meeting OF
representatives of each, in Lambros'
restaurant, Wilmington. Charles War
ner, who called the meeting and acted
as chairman, was elected president af-
ter a constitution and bylaws had
been adopted. The other officers elect
ed were:
First vice-president, Patrick Nc
Grory of New Castle; second vice.
president, E. L. Jones of Dover; third
vice-president, J. w. King of Laurel; !;
secretary and treasurer, George G..
Herring, Jr. The officers, with the
following, comprise the board of di-
rectors: Howard A. Turner, Whining
ton; Warren A. Singles, Newark; /;
Louder N. Hearne, Milford, and a
Kent county representative to be
chosen later.
George L. Medill, State Banking
Commissioner, and George c. Hernig,
Jr., were appointed delegates to rep
resent the new league at the national
convention to be held in Portland,
Maine, on July 1S and 10. There are
SO associations in the State, 81 of
which entered the league. The New
ark association is the oldest in the
State, having been instituted in 1867.
Forty-eight persons attended the
meeting.
A resolution was passed authoriz-
ing the league officials to ask Governor
Denney and Mayor Harvey to pro-
vide, by proclamation, for State
building and loan week some time in
the fall. Among the changes in the
laws desired is one providing for an
amendment to the present incorpora-
tion law, permitting new associations
to be organized and existing associa-
tions to increase their capital stock
without being subject to the State
franchise tax, and a provision for the
notification of the holder of a second
mortgage in case of foreclosure of a
first mortgage.
