Patrick Murphy is furious, but he
never calls Levy either Yid, Hike or
Sheeny, which is what he would do
in real life.
There is nothing said to sting the
Jews. The mockery is restricted to re-
igion. Race is kept entirely out of
the dialogue and action, and is only
implied in the makeup and speech Of
the characters.
The spirit is the same of get-to-
gether.The feeling of the people, who
belonging to whatever race or religion,
find that race and religion disliked
by their neighbors, are soothed and
warmed.
People want salve for most people
are wounded somewhat, sometimes.
At Abie's Irish Rose all wounds are
salved. The audience is warm and
happy every minute they are in their
seats.
Everybody on the stage is likable.
There is no villain. Everybody loves
everybody else. Everybody in the
end is happy. Everything succeeds.
The humor never flags.
The house filters or roars, and ones
neighbors break into shouts Of glee
and nudge each other.
1t is the greatest common multiple
of humor, the broad open-work humor
that millions shake at every time
somebody slipsc on banana peel.
But in this play so full of banana
peels nobody ever gets hurt.
The play is snowfall. Nothing
succeeds like success. People will go
to see Abie's Irish Rose because it has
been running three years, because all
their friends have seen it, if for no
other reason.
But still we haven't laid our hands
on the secret. There must be deeper
reason than all these, a more human
a more subtle one. One thousand one

The Phenomenon of the
i Age.

The sign over the theater says
1,999th performance" An every
performance has been full.
And there is another company in
Chicago. And there are other facsi-
miles of this gold mine touring Cana
da and the rest of the United States.
One of them is said to have played
in Lehigh, Pa, for twenty-nine weeks.
Companies in England, too. An offer
of $1,0O0,000 for movie rights has
been refused.
Altogether, Miss Anne Nichols, who
wrote the play, produced it, valiant
ly kept it alive at the beginning when
nobody else thought it would succeed,
who controls the original grand
father at the Republic theater, and all
its progeny on tour as well, is in a
fair way to clear two or three mil
lion dollars.
It's the phenomenon of the age.

What Are You Worth?

Gordon j. A. Hargreve saws that 81
per cent of the American people are
earning $1,000 a year Those whose
yearly pay exceeds that are the ones
who work with their heads. Those
who receive the big money are also
nearly always those who were willing
to serve an apprenticeship.
Many young people nowadays de-
mand that they be paid large wages
when they start, forgetting that the
business world usually pays just
what one is worth, and no more. If
a boy today can get more money by
working at some unskilled job which
has no future he is more apt to take
the Job than he is to serve an appren-
ticeship in some skilled trade where
he can be equipping himself to earn
more money later on.
The American people are too i'm
patient to arrive. We hurry and
rush-not knowing many times where
we are going or what we are going to
do after we get there. We forget
that our fathers before us had to
work hard to achieve what they have
today. Young people want to start
out where their parents left off. Too
few OF US are willing to pay the price
of success. 1t is the short cut to
eminence that we all want.
To be worth much to the world one
must have spent years in prepare
ton. The men and women who are
worth and who get large salaries are
those who have prepared themselves
so that they can accomplish important
tasks better than anyone else.
There never was time when OPP
portunity beckoned more convincingly
to Youth than today. If Youth will

The committee believes therefore

The committee believes therefore
that some immediate program is nee
cessary to inculcate morality in the
minds of the young generation.
Schools have been efficient enough on
the intellectual side, but as one critic
points out Thinking morally is a
prime requisite for thinking accurate
ly." 1t is pointed out that youth is no
longer safe-guarded in the clustered
precincts of the home; that the auto
and the movie and thousand other
attractions have destroyed the appeal
of the home. But this is not true.
If the home influence is no longer
felt it is because the home-makers
have failed. Two things seems essen
tial, first recovery of parental au-
thority over children. and renewing
of the home atmosphere; and, second,
change in the school program which
shall place emphasis upon character
and conduct, rather than upon clever
ness and intellectual variety.

report of that committee, just made

told that gambling, forgery and cheat

pupils; that jazz is the style of the
day among the young; that they have
a total lack of respect for law and or

Philadelphia Boobies
At Victoria, B. C.,
On WAY Home

VICTORIA, B. c., Dec. 2.
Stranded in the Orient without
funds when their baseball tour
came to an abrupt end, ten girls
of school age from Philadelphia,
calling themselves the 'Phila-
delphia Bobbies," arrived here
today on the liner Empress Of
Russia. Their passage had been
paid by a wealthy East Indian
merchant of Hongkong.
The girls passed through Vic
toria two months ago to play q
series of games in Japan. Their
first appearance was met with
crowded gates, more than 10000
persons paying to watch the
Boobies in action, but the tour
languished.

casual observation, it might ap-
pear that the East is well on the
road to complete recovery from
the shock it received some five
weeks ago upon seeing Harold
"Red" Grange, weIl-known man
about America, for the first time.
Eastern critics rallied around the
band wagon in question and threw
eulogies and caution to the four
winds.
Christopher Columbus, it seemed,
merely discovered America, while
the East, with rare presence of
Grange.
think they found a headless match
or a rungless stepladder. One Of
them stepped out blandly several
days ago with a set OF All.Ameri-
can selections and placed Grange
on his third team.
He thought well enough of the
young man to squander few para,
graphs, in which he explained that
Grange had done nothing Of conse,
quence all year, except against
Pennsylvania, and then proceeded
with more important matters.
Another critic conceded the
quarterback position on the first
team to Harold, but rated
"Swele" Oberlander, of Dart
mouth, as the most valuable
player of the season.
Grange" he said, showed him
self TO be a wonderful runner, but
he did not display the versatility of
Oberlander. Grange did little
taekling. He did not rate high as
a punter, drop kicker or place
kicker. And Oranges work as a
catcher Of punts was none too i'm
preSsive.
"Oberlander worked in the back.
field as he worked in the line two
years ago when he was one OF the
outstanding tackles of the East. He
was a brilliant worker on attack,
and great player on defense and
was not above leading the inter-
ference. There's the mark of the
truly great back-his willingness

The remarks of Fielding H. Yost

The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1925-12-02

to the growing tendency here to
talk Grange down. Yost said that
Grange looked like "a pretty fine
back" in four out of five games he
had seen, but that he didn't compare
with Willie Heston.
Warner, unfamiliar with Oranges
work, contented himself with stating
that Ernie Nevers was the greatest

However, 1t is difference Of opinion
that make all American selections

hobs up with the statement that
Carey, Of California, was the only

Of national consideration.
Another: Nearly all the selections
that have seen the light OF day thus
far have featured FIournoy, Of Tu-
lane; Brown, Of Alabama, and
Wyckoff, OF Georgia Tech, as the
outstanding players OF the South.
The writer's information is that
Poo1ey Hubert, OF Alabama, is the
greatest back the South has known

The Color Filter.
All that is necessary then to pass
light of a certain color is to select
a. color filter of the proper charsc-
teristics for passing the rays of the
desired color characteristics and cX-
clude the rest.
Now. it often happens that the
filter is not perfect filter for a
certain particular color. but has
shades of color bordering on two
adjacent colors on the color scale
In other words, the filter is made
of a blend of different colors.
In such case the filter will act
as an imperfect filter and will pass
a blend which is neither u pure ray
of one color nor the other.
In radio the tuning coil or in
pacity act in the same manner as
the color filters.
Circuit Acts As Filter.
When the inductance Of the coil
governed by it's length. diameter and
wire used, and the capacity OF tne
condenser. governed by the number
OF surfaces exposed to each other
and the distance between the surfaces
are adjusted properly, the circuit
acts as a filter for radio waves In
much the same way as the colored
glass acts as a filter for the light
waves.
When the color on the filter is
right IL Will allow only a pure color
ray to pass through and VIII e&-

on the filter IS a blend 1t Will allow
part OF one color and part Of an
other to pass, forming the blend.
In radio, when the circuit is an
efficient one and is properly adjusted.
II will allow reception of only one
station and exclude all others, but
when the circuit is not efficient or
ia improperly adjusted. 1t will allow
two stations to come in at the same
time, causing imperfect altering or
