AT LoEw-s BIJoU

AK 1OhFN'S . 0AOOO
 Preoocious much beyond her years, Baby Sylvia Frees easily heads p1oew's Bijou vaudeville bin for the first half of this week, and that Is e feat indeed, for the rest of the bill sets a high standard. Sylvia Is about ! years old, is an adept in the arts and graces of stasecraft, sings the svery latest songs-5azz, blues and baIlads-with equal effectiveness. and, above all else (and unusual in 8 child performer) enunciates under standably. Her song Why Don't You Leave Me Alone" sung as a ballad and jagged as to the final chorus, was a tag" to her act which drought lots and continuous ap- plause. She is presented on the bill !, iinder the auspices of the Octavia White home.
 Running her e close second in popular approval was the Dance Frivolities," featuring Edward and a Miriam Root. assisted by four comedy 4 girls and two agile young men. The 'n dances were of the stereotyped cali Der, but their execution was pleas ing and interesting. Particularly good was the ensemble dance to the March of the Wooden Soldiers" well costumed and pantomimed.
 Other acts on the bill were Aronty Brothers. a strong man act, unusual and good; Newport, Stirk and Parker, i eccentric dancing, singing and com edy, of which the dancing was far 2 the best, the singing fair and the eyscomedy strained, and Friend and Spar1ing, 8 comedy skit, featuring a Hebrew character whose personality and eccentricities were well received. s His parodies on Bananas" and z z 'sWhy Don't the Sun Shine On Me- 7 are rid2culously funny.
 sr 2 Viola Dana, supported by Tom Moore, in "Rouged Lips" Is the fea- : ture photoplay, a Metro production. This is merely pastime photoplay, but because of the excellence of the Featured players and it's direction, 1t 5s is lifted into the realm of the really Interesting and entertaining, being the chronicles of chorus girl and a stage door Johnny, with the usual happy ending. No little of the charm of the story is found in the acting of Moore's bulldog.-E. E. G.
 AT THE LYRIC
 Music, dancing, singing, skill. laughs and fun galore are in store for those fortunates who during tho first half of the week visit the Lyric.
 The last shall be first, but the fifst not necessarily last, but instead five big acts put on with a remark able spirit of cooperation between the actors, which reaches into the audience. Happy Benway and Sonny pinkins in presenting their Seven p7Clubs," not only used the talent of their seven artists, but draw from the other acts a whirlwlnd end which leaves the audience with keen Eense of enjoyment The act in a way resembles minstrel, but Is so filled 7 with extra features that it raises above the commonplace.
 Scanlon, Demon Brothers and Scanlon, in "Old Ideas Renewed" :" Introducing their own original waltz uuadrille,' was another act of novel; Z lies and surprises. As producers of - harmony they were good and the : twaltz quadrille' more than good.

STATE HOUSE
Next Meeting of 10 M Tuesday, Sept II

of several proposed sites for new
gaging stations. This trip also gave
the engineers an opportunity to visit
a number Of the notable power and
storage developments recently made
in this State.
The party consisted of w. NJ.
Black, chief engineer, and Nj. X.
Stackpole. assistant engineer, of the
Public Utilities Commission. c.. H.
Pierce. district engineer FOR New
England, and N. C. Grover. CHIEF NY
draulic engineer OF the United states
Geological Survey.
1t Is interesting to note that MIR.
Grover Is a native of Bethel, Me,
and is a graduate. of the University
of Maine. He taught in the unlver-
sity from 1891 to 1903 and was pro-
lessor of civil engineering in charge
of the department from 1897 to 1903.
in 1901 he started systematic stream
gaging in this State in cooperation
with the United States Geological
Survey, Department of the Interior.
Several of the gaging stations estab-
lished by him are still being oper-
ated.
Mr.. Grover was much interested in
visiting again the gaglng sta1ions
which he selected and equipped so
many years ago and to observe the
many improvements that had been
made. He complimented Mr.. Stack
pole on the new stations selected and
equipped by him and in general on
his work in collecting records OF
stream flow in the State.
Since 1913, Mr.. Grover has been
chief hydraulic engineer of the
United States Geological Survey in
charge of both surface and ground
water Investigations throughout the
country.
AS a direct result of the trip, 1T was
found that certain stations could be
made more dependable by changing
the tyne of equipment used. AT
other points the low water demon
strated the necessity for some re-
location of the gaging facilities so
that a complete and continuous
record could be obtained which would
show accurately the low flow condl-
tons.
Mr.. Black has already taken up the
question of improving these stations
with those interested in power devel.
opment on the various streams and
through their cooperation the Pub
lie Utilities Commission expects to
be able to make the necessary
changes within the next few weeks.
