ART OF THE COMEDIE FRANCHISE Stark Young, in the North American
 Review.
 What this French art of the theatre is, first of all, is urban. It belongs to the city. It's unreal and typical world Is an invention of city minds. The reactions, the emotions, the movies that 1t accepts as dependable and interesting, have evolved from years of conversation and fads and movements, It is a sophisticated rather than inspired art. It under stands the relative place, the sanity and the usefulness of enthusias sms and impulses. It understands the perpetual current of affairs and con- tacts that blunt the edge of expe- rience and provide substitutes and compensations for many losses and disappointments. It Is an art that depends on no illusion. Nobody pre- tends that this play of Dumas Is true or naive or to be believed in. As for
 necessity of illusions we leave that 1t Is display of themes. emotions. ideas. plots and acting; we can en- joy these without believing that tho
 whole is true The whole game of this drama, this acting. thls art of the theatre Is admitted, it Is a game with it's own creative laws. Beneath it's symbols people who know life and the town perceive its meanings. All things rely on mutual exchanges, common understandings. city usages. The point of view of this art Is that of civilization. And civilization inn plies an intention that will develop in society of individuals an art of coming together in 8 way that will be most beneficial to public and private interests: It implies harmony. dis cipline of mutual complacercy and consideration.

WINDSHIELD FOR SEAT

Passengers in the rear seat of an automobile can now enjoy the ride without any discomfort caused by the strong wind, by the use of a simple and flexible windshield or screen which has lately been introduced in Paris The contrivance, which Is described and Illustrated in the Popular Mechanics Magazine, is made of celluloid, and has two sections, each being housed in a small nickel plated tube that is fastened to the side of the car. When the occupant of the rear seat objects to the wind he merely reaches over and pulls the two sections of the screen to the cen- ter Cf the machine and hooks them together.

fate that has befallen similar ventures in the

in Twin Falls as well as in Twin Falls county, is
for fewer rather than more newspaper publica-
tons.
The entrance of the independent into the field
gives the county eight newspapers, with four of
these in Twin Falls. Three or four newspapers,
at most, would amply serve this county, but when

Filler should have an uptown telegraph office
IL is felt that with the large amount of incom-

branch OF the Western Union Telegraph com
pany the community is justified in seeking this
convenience.
To be sure, local residents have no complaint
regarding the service furnished at the present
telegraph office. but il is certain that the busi-
ness could be greatly increased and much time
and inconvenience saved by having a telegraph
office uptown rather than four blocks out of the
way
This matter should be brought to the atten-
ton OF the Western Union officials and il the
proposal has as much merit as THE RECORD be-
lieves it has, the company will lose no time in
making the change

Not so many years ago, $4,000
was considered a top-notch sum to
give for a minor league player. And
in those days it was lot of money.
Consequently, the entire baseball
world gasped aloud when it was an
nounced that the New York Giants
had paid the Indianapolis club in
the American Association a cold
81, ,000 for Fube Marquard.
1t was indeed a record price. And
naturally great deal was expected
Of the great southpaw hurler. But
for two seasons Marquard failed to
show his supposedly battling stuff,
and was of little use to McGraw.
After that he did better, setting a
modern record for consecutive vic
tories, with 19 such performances.
In 1915. Or seven years after COM
ing to the Giants, he went to Brook
lyn by the waiver route. And though
he is still in the main tent the
"$11,0 900 beauty" has hardly lived up
to the reputation that preceded him
into the majors.
Then there was Russell Black
burne and Larry Chappelle, obtained
from the Milwaukee club by the
Chicago White Sox in 1910. Lena"
as Blackburne was more familiarly
known, cost Comiskcy $500 and
couple of players. Chappelle cost
about $4,000. With the Brewers,
Blackburne had been sensation.
But with the Sox he never accom-
plished a great deal, being a lament
ably weak hitter, and a rather ezra
tic fielder.
Blackburne finally drifted back in
to the Double A" loop, and later
got on with Cincinnati, from which
team he was shortly turned adrift
again.
Chappelle had a similar experience,
getting a second trial with Cleve-
land, and then fading out.
And there was Marty O'TOole, an
other Indianapolis product, pur-
chased by Pittsburg. O'TooIe set
the Pirates back just %, 500 berries.
But all they got for their money was
the privilege Of feeding Marty. He
failed utterly to come through as q
big-time pitcher.
This trio, up until a few years ago,
brought the highest amounts ever
paid for minor league ball players.
And in the main they were all poor
investments, though Marquard has
hung on fairly we'll
In a nutshell, they couldn't live up
to their regulations. Advance press
notices were too steep to mount.
Too much was expected of them.
And that's just why fans in gen
eraI are rather skeptical concerning
Kamm, O'ConneIl, Hale and Bentley.
They cost record sums Heaps will
be expected Of them. If they make
the grade, all well and good. If
they don't live up to their reps
well, it will doubtless mean-Adois" "
In other words, they really have
nothing to gain, and everything to
lose.
Hence, living down bad reputa-
tion is one thing, and living up to a
good one is another.
