government worker recently wanted
to write to a friend who had gone
to Bass Rocks for the summer. Not

give it, some declaring they never

Trolley Conductor Scores.

Coming out on the Mount Pleasant
car I was attracted to an elderly
lady who had boarded the wrong
car and, in her excitement, lost con-
troll of herself. Her quaintness OF
dress and manner was ideal, and
the gentlemanly conductor after
trying. to soothe the dear old some
body's mother" appealed to me. He
tenderely calmed her by Ills assur-
ance that at the next corner he
would assist her to the car for Bal
timore.
Several people on the car remarked
that conductors deserved more con-
sideration than they usually receive
from the public-A. E. Russell, 1751

Where There's a Will, Etc.

As was rounding a curve in the
Speedway this morning on my way
to work. I sighted a young couple
standing beside a sport model auto
mobile. 1t had no steps, which made
getting into it a perilous undertaking
for the young lady, as she wore
tight-ftting skirt But her escort
was equal to the emergency. Glanc-
ing furtively around to see II the

in his arms and lifted her bodily

Bible to the Fore.

Returning by auto from Fourth
of July celebration, we were inter-
ested in the people we were passing
commenting upon the lives of those
that lived in various localities when
our attention was attracted by this
unusual sight.
A comparatively young man was
sitting between two very old women
outside the door of a modest cot
tage, with the old-fashioned Bible
upon his lap, reading to these women.
They were totally unconscious OF
any passerby.

new play which was presented at the
National Theatcr last night. makes
no attempt to disguise the fact that
it is a sermon; that it is propaganda.
1t hits right in the eye. There is

haps, the ironic name. really clever.
According to the new play. the

Jazz is in some way responsible.
Whereas. as a matter of fact. jazz
is merely a symptom Of the disease.
The National Anthem" which is
played by Miss Laurette Taylor and
a group of very capable actors,
abounds in contrasts-which point the
moral still further. But these con-
trasts have been made so severe
that they detract from the plausibili-
ty Of the story.
Take for instance. the two lovers.
Arthur and Tom. one an exponent OF
pcrance and work. Reminiscent Of
the old-time Sunday school tract.
which may have been worthy, but
was scarcely popular reading. Then
thero are the two fathers. one the
father Of Marion. easygoing: toll
habits Of the young. The other. the
father of Arthur. severe. intolerant.
without loving or lovabia streak
in his nature. 1t may be that fathers
exist who will throw q daughter at
the head CT a young drunkard and re-
jotce when the eiopement occurs. 1t
may be. too, that there are fathers
who rejoice when their sons die. But
it is somewhat of a strain to believe
that they do.
The underlying theme of the play is
weaknesS-and weakness does not ap-
peal. Arthur, the successful lover. Is
a weakling. The unsuccessful lover
is something of prig. The sympathy
of the audience naturally goes out to
Marion, the attractive young woman
and undertakes to reform him by al
ways giving way to him.
The lessons in the play are by no
means intended only for the youthful
who may have their feet on the jazzy,
primrose path. but for the parents of
America One line. spoken by Marion
to the father of her weakly vicious
lover. suggests that father should
give at least as much attention to
building up his sons as to building up
his business. 1t is. perhaps. the real
lesson of THE National Anthem
The author has erected a story that
moves logically to it's conclusion-a
sorrowful conclusion it is. Such
comedy as there is in it peters out
after the first act. Thereafter the
gloom is thick. The play. however,
has some tensely dramatic moments.
and Miss Taylor gives a portrayal of
Marion that is a piece of art.
1t is not pleasant to see young
wife intoxicated. or to see her terror
ized after she has swallowed bichlo-
ride of mercury by mistake. But Miss
Taylor's acting is all that can be de-
sired. Sickroom scenes. even as up

In the House Of Lords the proceed

The Kings speech at the formal

understood, will begin with an i'm

followed by ar allusion to unemploy-
ment at home as connected with the
unsettled condition of Europe.
Legislation establishing the new
constituticn n of Ireland will be mem
toned, no wever, as the sole matter
which neo ,ssitated the meeting Of
Parliament for the second time this
year, and the House will be invited to

The oticiai view is that ten work

dress from the throne and the passage
of the Irish bill, but it is regarded
as somewhat doubtful il the govern
