Scotch Musical Comedy at Audito

Scotch Musical Comedy at Audito-
rum, Oct. 80
"Cotter's Saturday Night" the
Scotch musical comedy which is to
be given at the high. school audito-
rum, Gardiner, on October 80, is an
original adoption from Robert Burns
story.
At New Haven, Conn, where a per-
Torrance was given, the New Haven
Courier, in part, says:
although billed as a Scottish
musical comedy, it seemed to impress
the majority as nothing more or less
than programme Of familiar Scotch
songs, around which a pretty and
simple story of shire life in Scotland
had been woven, with generous
touches of humor, sentiment, pathos
and much Of the we'll known Burns
philosophy.
The warm response that every
number received proved obviously
that the large audience was being
highly entertained.-Adv.

This city was in darkness for
about two hours Wednesday eve

wind caused the wires leading to the
Central Maine power house to rub
together in such way as to cause
a short circuit, and 13 of the big
wires fell to the ground. While
these were being repaired, the pow
er had to be turned off leaving the
entire city without lights.

Meat Is composed of cells. These
cells are filled with a solution con-
tanning salts and various fiayorine
materials known as extractives. 1t is
these substances, especially the ex-
tractives, which give soup it's char
acteristic flavor. The extractives also
have the same stimulating effect up
or the human mechanism as tea or
coffee. They are all soluble in cold
water, and since we eat soup because
we like this flavor and stimulating eff

logical survey burned up papers
which it cost 100000 to produce.
"It is apparent from the frequent
fires which occur in government
buildings that these documents are
in constant danger of total destruc-
ton"
Mr.. Fess emphasized his remarks
on the danger of fire by appending
list of fires in government buildings
filling a column and a half of the Con-
gressional Record.
1t was apparently the. passing OF
an item in the appropriation bill for
the executive office that started up
congressional activity. 1t was $4,000
item for the building of a. fireproof
roof over the White House. In the
Congressional Record Is this:
Mr.. Wood of Indiana-This $1,000
is for the purpose Of preparing and
providing plans and the building of
fireproof roof over the White House
1t is now a tinder box, and inspection
has demonstrated the fact that the
rafters have slipped from their moor
ings and away from their beams and
are now resting upon the heavy walls
that support them. The space be-
meath the roof Is tht garret, in which
there are thousands and thousands of
volumes of records pertaining to this
government and great many relics
that are of rare value that have been
contributed to the various presidents
from time to time and that have
been stored there The place is now
so infammable that it would burst
into flame If spark should happen
to light there and not be discovered
To me the amazing thing is that in
the improvement of the White House
which was made few years ago moth
ing was done with reference to max
ing the roof fireproof.
Mr.. Fess-The very thing the gen.
tleman is presenting argues to me the
necessity of an archives building. Is
there any prospect of having per-
manent housing of the records that
the gentleman speaks of?
Mr.. Wood of Indiana-The only
thing / know of that points in that
direction is a report submitted to the
senate a few days ago with reference
to the necessity of 1t. There is no
question of the necessity. 1t is an
amazing proposition when we take
into consideration the fact that the
records of the Treasury department of
the United States are lodged In the
easements and upper stories of 27
different buildings in this clay
Mr.. Fess-The buildings where
these records are stored are not fire.
proof, are they?
Mr.. Wood Of Indiana. No; and
some of the records are in cellars.
Then the senate had long debate
over this item:
"For installing Is stories of filing
stacks in the interior court of the Pen
sion Office building, including eleva-
tors, lighting system, and founda-
ton, personal services, labor and ma
terials, to be Immediately available,
