French Band
To Play Soviet
National Anthem

PARIS, Apfil 2s.-R,-The
approach of May DAY is disturb
ing the serenity Of the little
town of Movers. Its 10000 in
habitants have elected socialist
mayor, who has decided that May
day should be celebrated Off
ciaIly and that as part Of the
celebration the town band should
play the 1nternationale' in the
town park.
Some of the so members of
the band objected to playing the
communist anthem and a meet
ing was called to discuss the
matter. Mayor Perrin argued
that as Soviet Russia had Off
cially adopted the anthem and
France had established diplo-
matte relations with that gov
eminent, the air no longer could
be considered seditious. The de-
bate was acrimonious but even
tualIy a majority voted that the
"Internationale" should be play
ed May day but also on con-
dition that the "Marseillaise,"
the French national anthem, also
is rendered.

One of the outstanding features
Of the newly renovated Capitol
theatre is the ventilation system in
stalled by experts in this phase of
theatre requirements.
By this system the theatre is as
sured of fresh, pure air at all
times. There are three monstrous
fans used in this operation. One
fan operated by a twenty horse
power motor constantly pulls in
fresh air while two others take the
air out again after its circulation
In the house thereby changing
the air about every ten minutes.
This system will prove very valu-
able during the warm, sultry, days
of the summer months as Its cool
ing breezes will sweep through the
entire theatre keeping it cool and
comfortable for patrons.

pear In this column on Wednesday,.

WOMEN IN PULPITS

The Reverend Joyce Daplyn. the
youngest and most recent of Eng
lands fully qualified ministers of the
gospel, told the Woman's Provision
al club of London that once the'con-
gregation has become accustomed to
a woman in the pulpit it doesn't
notice whether the minister is a man
or woman and concentrates its at
tention on the message which the
speaker is giving.
Personal faith sufficiently strong
to fill ones life, sympathy, under
standing and tact are the essential
qualifications for women who think
of embarking upon 4 ministerial
career, she said.

But THESE DISAGREE

Various reasons are given for the
action OF the Pastoral Session OF
the Wesleyan Conference at York in
vetoing the proposals for the minis
try of women.
One relates to theological mat
ters rather than those of organiza-
ton, another that many Wesley
an ministers entertain much SYM
pathy with Catholic order and ira
dition. and that they are aware the
Anglican rhurch will not tolerate
the ministry of women.

When cussing on the stage was a.
pulling infant. the public used to
shudder everytime the villain NUT
tered such wild eXpletires as hell"
and damn" under his breath. But
the infant has grown to strident
manhood and in What Price Glory"
which is playing at Parsons theater,
Hartford, for the first part of the
week. he booms in front of the foot
lights in much stronger language
and nobody takes offense.
What Price Glory" is the grand
dad of cussing shows. When it
opened its long run in New York
city the audiences didn't know
whether to be shocked or laugh.
Even the critics were up a tree.
Then everybody laughed and let It
go at that Forthwith, there sprang
up shows into which strong
language was woven but most of
them fell flat because in What
Price Glory" there seems to be a
natural excuse for swearing while
in the others swearing was simply
thrown in because it was believed
the cash customers would be pleased
What Price Glory" is a red
blooded omedy-drama which shows
war "as is" with the sugar coating
taken off the pill. There is no wav-
ing of the flag, no artificial patriot
ism thrown in to provide mock
thrills. 1t is a realistic picture OF
true conditions.
The cast presenting the play al
Parsons theater is capable down to
the last detail. Gordon hamilton
Jack Carlysle, Murray Alper, Ro-
chere Dangan, Stuart Douglas. Walt
er Kelly and Dan Kelly are con-
vincing and true to type. Desiree
Stempel, the only female in the cast,
makes a very acceptable French
maiden who falls in love with every
uniform she meets. These are ably
supported by well chosen company
What Price Glory" will be pre-.
sented at a matinee performance or
