PLAN TO BUILD SHORT
CUT TO COOLIDGE DAM

GLOBE, Mar. 20. - Twelve
miles from Globe to the new Cool
idge damsite will be saved by the
construction Of new shortcut
from Cutter, eight miles south of
here, to the dam, which was as
sured by information received
that the state highway depart
ment is preparing to draw up
plans and specifications for the
road to be submitted to the fed
eral government.
The proposed highway will be
20 miles in length, but the last
mile is now being constructed by
Clay Fl. Southworth, engineer in
charge, with a force of SO Indian
workers. This mile is to cost,
$4,000. It is expected that the
work On the new highway, which
will be federal-aid road, will
start within a year. Delay in
plans for the road, was due, it is
understood, because Of desire
on the part of the state highway
department to be assured Of the
early beginning of work on the
Coolidge dam, which is now be-
lieved to be certain. When the
road is completed, the distance
from Globe to the damsite will be

who plays the lead, distinguished
herself in children of the Moon"
and in "The Best People," two plays
which revealed her great emotional
power and her sense of humOr. In
Love En- and Leave En-" she
gets an opportunity to express both
sides of her talent. Thomas Chal-
mers, who plays a comedy part, was
formerly baritone of the Methropol-
itan Opera Company, and is now
making a distinguished place for
himself on the spoken stage. DON
aid Macdonald is one of Americas
leading juveniles. Earlier this sea-
son he was seen in support of Madge
Kennedy in Beware of Widows" ="
And then there is that sterling ac-
tor, Donald Meek, who, in 'The Pot
ters" gave what was generally ac-
knOwledged to be one of the finest
performances ever seen in New
York. In Love En- and Leave EN-"
Mr.. Meek plays Lem Woodruff. In
his long and distinguished career,
Mr.. Meek has played 759 parts, but
he considers that he has never had
finer opportunity than is afforded
him by Love EN- and Leave EN-" !"
All in all, Mr.. Harris new prOduc-

AT THE PLAYHOUSE

Jed Harris announces that his la
test production Love En- and
Leave EN-" a new comedy Of Am
erican life by George Abbott and
John V. A. Weaver, will appear at
the Playhouse, Wilmington, Friday
and Saturday nights and Saturday
afternoon, January % and %.
The cast is an unusual one, in
cluding Florence Johns, Katherine
Wilson, Donald Meek, Thomas Chal-
mers and Donald Macdonald. The
play has been directed by Geo. Alb
bott, who directed "The Fall Guy"
and "The Holy Terror" of both of
which plays he was also part au-
thor. The sets have been designed
by Cleon Throckmorton.
Love EN- and Leave EN-" deals
with a phase of life which has new
er been treated on the American
stage, at least in terms of realistic
comedy. Both the authors are un-
usually endowed to reproduce the
speech and the emotions of the
shOp-girls and landladies and their
kind, who are the characters in this
play. Mr.. Weaver became famous as
the first writer to use the "Ameri-
can" language as a medium for po-
etry. His poems amazed people by
revealing the possibilities for humOr
and pathos, for genuine eloquence
inherent in the ordinary slang, the
common patois used by the average
American. In "The Fall Guy" which
Mr.. Abbott wrote with James Gleas-
on, the author of els Eat So?" the
same qualities emerged which dis
tinguished Mr.. Weaver's poetry.
Love EN- and Leave EN-" is the
first collaborative effort of these
two writers and it is an intensely
human play about real people.
Mr.. Harris has assembled an ex-
traordinary cast. Florence Johns,

|HICHWAYS---THE
UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE
By Roy D. Chaplin, Vice-President
National Automobile Chamber OF
Commerce.

Less than twenty-five years ago
fhe first automobile successfully ne
gotiated the trip by highway from
Detroit to New York City.
1t took a full week to get there.
A complete set of replacement
parts had to be carried with the car,
since service stations did not exist.
Early in the trip the tires fell into
the habit of debating at from 10 to
15-mile intervals.
Time and again the road stretched
away into seemingly bottomless
mud.
Frequently extra horsepower was
required to extricate the vehicle
from difficulty.
The direction of the road to New
York was uncharted. For that mat

PRESIDENT COOLIDGE
ENJOYED BLACKSTONE

During his Washington engage
ment, Blackstone, the world travel
led magician, was called to the
White House to entertain President
Coolidge and a distinguished COM
pany assembled for the occasion. "a
good time was had by all present.
A dyed-in-the-wOol, (Schedule X
Senator remarked, after the enter
tainment that the Democrats should
nominate Blackstone for the Presi-
dency as he, Blackstone, could fool
all the people all the time.
BIackstone's Washington engage
ment was made interesting from a
far different angle. At another thea
tire, less than two blocks away,
Thurston, the magician, was filling
an engagement, and the rivalry of
the two necromancers, was the sub
iect of much newspaper space.
Blackstone is the originator of the
vanishing Horse" and other illus
ions being used by Thurston. He
was not slow in making this fact
known.
Only last April Blackstone return
ed to America from his third world
tour at the head of his company of
wonder-workers. Since mis- return
to this country his tour has been
confined to the principal cities,
where he has been playing to ca
pacity houses. The press in every
city thus far visited have been un-
animous in proclaiming Blackstone
to be the greatest magician OF all
time.
Blackstone will bring his big COM
pany to the Playhouse, Wilmington,
for a weeks engagement, starting
Monday night, January rs. The us
ual Wednesday and Saturday matt
nee will be given.
Among the features new to Will
mington and which Blackstone will
present for the first time there are:
"The Man Who Walks Away from
His Shadow" "The Vanishing
Horse" "The Brides Chamber"
"Alice in wonderland" "Jack in the
Box" "Spooks in the Light" Duck
Inn" "a Bachelors Dream" Chin
ese, Egyptian and Hindoo effect;
some of them dating their origin
back more than 1000 years. 1t re-
uuires two seventy foot baggage
cars to transport the vast quantity

OUR HIRED MAN

When I told the boss that
smashed his truck in town the 9th
er day, and that it would cost $65.OO
to fix it up, he said, "The auto CIV
eth and the auto taketh away"
I hadn't milked many COWS before
I learned it didn't pay to weight a
switching tail with a brick.
The other night, the boss and the
missus had a spat over which was
kept the cleanest, the kitchen or
the milk house.
"I scrub the kitchen three times
a week." says the missus. "And I
whitewash the milk house three
times a year." says the boss walk
in out of the room.
Now's the time you can tell where
the drafts in the barn come from.
Discussing small top milk pals,
the boss says, "The milk goes in
just as easy-and it's sure harder
for the dirt to get in"
Last week we heard a talk by the
County Agent on Bacteria in Milk
"It's the little things that count"
he said.

But trouble understands when P. A. says:

light heart, the bright smile. Because

the secondary roads be built with
view to future requirements Of the
whole nation.
Other questions of scarcely lesser
moment remain.
Many primary state highway sys-
TENS are largely surfaced. But we
are now facing the larger problem
of handling the traffic flow which
these roads have attracted.
Wider roads between the larger
centers of populations must now be
undertaken. This is more particu-
larly true in the Eastern states
where primary road systems have
been largely surfaced.
Strengthening of roads, and elimi-
nation of curves, bad bridges, and
grade crossings are essential to the
future efficiency of this new trans
portation
Secondary roads must be improv-
ed and brought up to standard to
take the overflow and handle their
own increasing traffic.
Greater utilization of highway
transportation is the chief solution
of distribution costs and difficulties.
Cooperative marketing and the
intensive development of farm areas
contiguous to urban markets finds
its greatest asset in improved high
ways. These offer a real solution to
farm market problems.
RecreatiOnaI Use Growing
Recreational use of the highway
is growing amazingly. Municipal
golf links; state parks; national
parks; lakes and rivers for fishing
and hunting are made accessible to
rich and poor alike over the high
way.
Task Well Begun
Our highway program is we'll be-
gun. Genuine economy demands that
we complete the task we have un-
dertaken. To do so means the crea-
ton of new wealth, the opening of
new production areas and the great
er enjoyment of life made possible
by the higher standards of living to
which highways contribute so large
ly.
