A darky named Sam borrowed $50
from his friend Tom and gave his
note for the amount.

came long past due and Tom was

The Champs Elysee Music hall cell
ebrated it's first anniverAary this
week, although when it was opened
as vaudeville theater in April, 1925
wagers that it would not last 20
weeks found no takers.
The theater was built largely with
American capital a score of years
ago as a Temple of Music" designed
to depict the last word in theatrical
architecture and to become the center
for modern production of grand opera.
Only a short time was needed how
ever, to demonstrate that Paris did
not want second house for grand
opera, the famous opera being suf-
ficient. Success only came to the
Temple of Music when it became a
music hall.
It's present directors say they hope
to present the "Ziegfeld Follies" TO
Paris as soon as the volatile franc
has been pinned down to a fixed re-
ation to the almighty dollar.

Buckingham palace and the other
royal residences of King George and
Queen Mary have come within the
range of an economy campaign IN
augurated by the sovereign himself.
The king, speaking at the open
ing of parliament, emphasized the
necessity of ECONOMY in every
sphere and has now brought his
suggestion into practical effect.
1t has been announced that the up
keep for the royal palaces for the
financial year will be $4,000 less than
last year. The royal residences
which are maintained out of the civil
service estimates, include Bucking-
ham palace, Marlborough house, Wind
sor castle, and Frogmore. house.
In furtherance of the scheme for
cutting down expenses, it was an
nounced that the king had reduced
the number of gentlemenin- waiting
to the royal household and had found
other places for numerous servants.
While rather extensive alterations
are being made at Sandringham and
Balmoral, no provision is made in
the estimates for this work, as ethese
estates are private property of the
king.

BERLIN, April 1O.-Ill firtune con-
tinues to follow the Moselle valley
wine growers, who are waging a mill
tant campaign for credit and tax re-
lief from the government. When
after weeks of wet weather which had
caused water to seep into hundreds of
wine cellars during the disastrous
early spring floods, it was pumped out
it was discovered that the labels
had been washed off the battles
that the many wine growers now
have no means of distinguishing be-
tween wine 10 and Is years old and
that bottled last year. The loss is
estimated at several hundred thou
sand marks. No one wants to pay
high price for wine merely on the
guess of the grower that it is rare
old stuff. 1t is feared that large
lots will have to be sold at prices
prevailing for one year old wine.

English film producers striving to
make English films with English stars
to compete with American pictures
assert that they are handicapped by
the English type of feminine beauty.
The typical English girl, they say,

The motion picture camera accen-
tuates height and when the tall
heroines of the British spoken stage
are filmed, the results are not sat
isfactory.
1t is claimed that film fans the
world over want petite heroines and
that nearly all the women making pic
lures in the United States are OF
average height or under it. 1t is
easier to make short women look tall
er in the movies than to make tall
women look shorter, and British pro-
ducers are on the lookout for smaller
girls of pronounced English type
who can be developed into world
rivals of the heroines of Hollywood.
The usual English diet of roast
beef and potatoes, the moist English
climate and the English love of out of
doors are cited as the reasons for the
tallness of Aldion's daughters.

LONDON, April 17.-The manager of
Covent gardens, London, home of the
opera, are speculating anxiously about
the frequency with which King
George and Queen Mary will attend
the opera season which will open
within a few weeks. Upon the meas
ure of the royal patronage the sue
cess of the season largely depends.
Last year. their majesties attended
only the performance of "Tosca," with
Nine. Jeritza in the leading role.
This year it is taken for granted
that they will be present at Nine.
Melba's farewell performance, which
will be program of selections from
all her most famous roles. 1t is
doubtful, however, whether the SOW
ereigns can be induced to attend any
of the Wagnerian presentations which
will make up a large part of the
coming season, as the lengthy per-
formances of the Wagnerian ring
are not much to his liking.
Obtaining a presentation to the
king and queen is becoming such a
task that even English folk of high
rank have to resort to subterfugeS to
obtain a court presentation for their
own children. So many foreigners are
claiming the right of presentation
nowadays that even though their ma
jesties hold four courts instead of two
in a season. the English born debu7
tante has difficulty in getting into
the presence of her sovereigns.
Hundreds of applications were re-
fused by the Lord Chamberlain this
year. ALREADY the unsuccessful ap-
plicants are registered for next year.
Many parents whose daughters do not
reach the debutante age of 18 before
1927 and 1928 have made applications
forN the year in which their daughters
shall be old enough. The lord cham
berlain has received these applica-
tions but not accepted them, for he
fears that if such a precedent is es-
tablished, such applications will be
filed whenever a baby is born in eli
gible families.
American mothers have been quick
to follow this lead. The embassy has

More Truth Than Poetry

GO GETTERs

The English sparrow has no song,
His ways are rough and rude
He chirps and chatters all day long
While questing for his food.
He is not beautiful a-wing,
And all that he enjoys
Is evil hammered pickering
And noise.

The robins and the orioles
That sing at fall of dew
Are cheerful, happy kindly souls
But they are growing few
And soon their pleasant, friendly cult
Will vanish from the skies
The while the strident sparrow multi
iplies.
And thus it is with all the pests
We meet with every day
Who on their predatory quests
Pursue their noisy way.
They fuss and quarrel and fight and
fret
They have no gift of song,
But it's amazing how they get
Along!

Members of the Dawes commission,
foreign financiers and even many
Germans who were the guests of DR..
Hjalmar Schacht, president of the
reichsbank, at smoker during the
recent annual meeting of the bank,
expressed wonder at the number and
spaciousness of the rooms in DR..
Schacht's apartments in the reichstag
building. This apartment is one of
the finest official residences in Ger
many, not even excepting the palaces
of the president and the chancellor.
Wonder concerning this luxury was
removed, however, when it was ex-
planned that the first president OF
the reichsbank, Herr Won Dechend,
had 13 children, which made it ne
cessary for an unusually spacious
residence to be provided him. When
Herr Won Dechend was raised to noble
rank in 1865, 13 gold coins were add
ed to his family coat Of arms.
Both during. the empire and under
the present republic, the president
of the reichsbank is one of the most
exalted officials in Germany.

WET WASH PLAN
GAINING FRIENDS
Pilgrim Laundry Caters to
Busy Housewife.

The wet wash laundry service of
the Pilgrim Laundry, 1412 Cornell
Ave, has increased in volume so
much in recent weeks that prices
have been reduced. according to H.
G.. Caldwell, a partner in the com
pany. The fine quality Of service
given housewives in wet wash laun-
dry. he pointed OFT, has been the
biggest asset of the company.
All fat pieces of laundry are
ironed and special attention is given
to rinsing and wringing, he ex-
planned. so that when the laundry
reaches the home it is practically
dry.
I'VE have found ourselves able to
reduce prices on vet wash laundry
because OF the tremendous increase
in volume of business handled"
Caldwell said.
Caldwell said that his company
insisted upon careful checking Of
all laundry received. Each batch Of
laundry is listed and then sorted
into six various types of materials,
each type being placed in. a net bag
and all bags pinned together with
numbers. Following washing in
modern machines the laundry is
rinsed and partially dried by special
Wringing machinery.
