New York, April 14.-A college pro-
fessor and his wife came down from
New England for a spring vacation.
They were here four days and went
to the theatre four nights and II.
tended matinees Wednesday, Thurs
day and Saturday. There being 10
matinees on Friday, they went to the
circus. Which is just additional
testimony that New York's theatres
are maintained largely by out-of-
towners.
An old fellow from Illinois stop
ped to look at the debris scattered
about Bryant Park where a new sub
way is being constructed. Boy" he
said, "times have changed and you
think you have wonderful city here,
but it isn't one-two-three with what
it used to be. Where the Public Lii
brary is used to be big reservoir.
And here where they're digging the
subway was the prettiest building
ever saw 1t was the Crystal Pal
ace. As I remember it, there we're
upwards of 100000 square feet of
glass in the building. The first
level was eight-sided and the second
was like a Greek cross. l was just
a little bit of shaver then. but
still remember it as the most beauti-
full thing ever saw"
Of course, never saw the Crystal
Palace. Indeed, had never heard
of it. Yet doubt if it was more
beautiful than the Radiator Build
ing now standing on the south side
of Bryant Park. 1t is of black
brick topped with spires and towers
of gold plate. At night this top of
gold is illuminated and the whole is
like something in an enchanted city.
The black bricks represent coal and
the glittering top is for flame. And
at night when a few dull lights glow
in windows the illusion of the entire
pile being a smouldering mass is
created.
When the Crystal Palace was burn
ed IS years ago it was managed by
p. 7. Barnum. Even in those days

Northwestern North Dakota be-
come an Empire. dotted with beau

She couldn't pluck her goose very
often, of course, for each time she
plucked it, she had to wait long
time for a new crop of feathers to
grow on again.
So it had taken her quite a long
time, several years, indeed. to get
the barrel full.
But at last the barrel was full

her old tick full of new feathers.
"Daddy and I should be as warm

"Never have had such lovely

Daddy rolled the barrel down the
attic stairs and out onto the back

TWO -FISTED SOLDIER is GEN. ANDREWS NEW
PROHIBITION ENFORCEMENT DIRECTOR
By NEA Service

BY NEA Service
Washington, April 14.-A two-fisted
soldier has been entrusted with the
gigantic task Of enforcing the pro-
hibition law.
General Lincoln C. Andrews, as
sistant secretary of the treasury, is
especially in charge of the job of
drying up the country.
With reputation for strenuous
D. Butler of the Marine corps, who
has been fighting the sale Of liquor
in Philadelphia, it is believed that
Andrews will put booze into discard,
il any one can.
Andrews is a West Pointer, who
spent most of his army life as a
cavalryman and served as deputy
provost marshal general at Ameri-
can c. H. @. in France.
He knows police work and has
proved himself capable executive
through his connections as head of
the New York transit commission and
receiver of the New York and Queens
County Railroad.
He has an amiable disposition and
is the typically lean, elderly cavalry
man, with firm jaw and piercing
eyes. nodded into countenance that
spells self-assurance.
Andrews carries the air of leader.
who turns aside all barriers to reach
his object.
Under President Coolidge's latest
policy the new assistant secretary
will be relieved of the task of chas-
ing retail bootleggers.
His job is to stop the supply of
liquor at it's source. If retailers do
manage to obtain any, they may ped
die it to their hearts content, so far
as the federal government is con-
cerned.
Arresting bootleggers will have to
be attended to by local authorities,
the president says-federal agents
can not be expected to carry on petty
police work.
Weapons placed at General An
drews' disposal are the coast guard,
the customs service and the prohi-
bition unit.
With the coast guard the general
will endeavor to stop the landing of
liquor on the shores of the United
States.
Custom service officials will try to
prevent smuggling across the Can
adian and Mexican borders
Prohibition units will seek to break
up moonshining and illicit with
drawals from liquor warehouses.
II prohibition can't be enforced by
General Andrews, it can't be en-
forced by anybody-at least that is
the opinion prevailing in official
Washington.

LETTER FROM BEATRICE SUM.
MERS TO LESLIE PRESCOTT,

end my letter with my invitation,
but l happened to think that you
might be interested in the only NOV
ing picture actress that you know
pers onally.
Paula Perier is not only perhaps
"our best money makerN as Dick
says, but she has steadily become
one of the most interesting of wo-
men,.
The other evening here at the
house l had a friend from back east
a rather stupid woman who insisted
that all who play upon the screen
were subjected to greatest of temp
tation. She was frankly curious
about the life of the moving picture
people.
"I can't tell very much about it in
comparison with the life in society
for / never was a society woman

gine that it holds only the same
temptations and hardships that come
to a girl who must earn her living

average woman, especially unmar-
ried ones, shall more or less ignore
sex even in this day of its glorifica-
tion. But every man from the time
he is twenty until he is seventy is
potentially interested in every good
looking woman he sees"
My friend from the east gave her
a sharp look,

makes no difference whether he is
married or not?" she asked.

THE AIRPLANE CARRIER

America IS not altogether asleep at the hangar obvous
of what perils may by air. There has just been
launched at Camden N J for the United States Navy the
fastest and biggest airplane- carrier in the world

Such craft may be the most important factor in any

so much more important than any
thing else that we tacitly turned the
whole government over to it's only
efficient branch.
Legislatures and Congress, our
own direct representatives, the safe
guards of our freedom, fell into in
creasing contempt, for the one un-
pardonable sin of inefficiency.
The right remedy would have been
to make them efficient. 1t can be
done. The experience of the world
has shown how.
But it was easier to take the de-
partment that was already efficient
and make it the legislative as we'll
as the executive branch. 1t works,
on the whole, surprisingly we'll. I'm
til we can do the other thing, there
is nothing to do but cling to it. But
free government needs other things,
as we'll as efficiency.
We must have the efficiency, even
if its price is doing without the 9TH
er things. Italy and Spain are ex-
employing that in its EXTREMIST
form.
America can best escape the risk
of their fate by setting resolutely at
the task of securing representative
freedom and responsibility without
sacrificing efficiency.

ON HEALTH
CAUSES OF HIVES

An application of hot towels is
the most effective temporary relief
for hives, Mrs. Jones learned.
The hot towels should be barely
touched to the affected parts, and
then instantly withdrawn so as to
avoid blistering.
If the touching is repeated this
way a number of times it will afford
relief from itching, and will gener-
ally cause the eruption to disappear.
Sometimes it is most convenient
to hold the affected parts over a
bath tub and splash the water on it
with basin.

TEACHERS PAID LESS

There has been general feeling that teachers salaries
in this country have been quite generously increased recent
years. although few consider teachers
overpad In this connection recent studies made by
the National Education Association are of interest
That organization states that the average salary of all
teachers in the large cities just 9 per of what
it in 1913 judged by what it will purchase The
salary paid has risen from $515 to $721 year. an
of 40 cent Since the purchasing power of the
larger is less than that of the smaller sum, the
crease becomes decrease
The association also says that "the teachers salary
mines the quality Of the people attracted to the teaching
profession The salary schedule must determine to large
extent the preparation of teachers and their disposition
remain in the profession Starvation wages manfesy
unfair to this class of loyal and useful public They
also unfair to the nations children they starved
