AMATEUR GROUP
TO PRESENT COMEDY
FOR AUGUSTA ny"

The entertainment committee of
the Y. M. C. A. has chosen the most
popular play date in the year
Thanksgiving night-for the presen-
tation of Glare Runners great So
ciety comedy, "a Successful Calam-
ity."
The prime object in presenting the
comedy is to give the people of Au-
gusta an opportunity to see de-
lightful play by select company Of
Augusta amateurs at a time when
there are many of family reunions
and home comings.
The play won its first recognition
through William Gillette who stal red
in 1t for several seasons. Its action
is fast, the surprises frequent and
the mirthful situations almost con-
tinuous.
H. Augustus Huse, the veteran
actor of Bath, who is coaching the
cast, says that never before has lie
had a group of amateurs swing into
their parts more freely and easily.
Nor have I ever had a cast better
suited to their parts" he said when
asked about tie progress of the play.
Ralph w. Farris has been selected
to play the lead in Henry Wilton, "a
millionaire who longs to spend
quiet evening at home" Mr.. Farris
was at one time on the professional
stage and has also played in many
home talent productions. He is ideal
in his part. Wilton's young second
wife, Emmie. Is Mary Smith Ingra-
ham, who has also been before the
footlights many times in amateur
plays. Polly Sturtevant takes the

''The Roughometer"
A New Highway Tester

State govern nents are constantly
Analysing, testing and developing
material for better roads and more
of them. In this connection the
Minnesota State Highway Bureau
have developed machine known as
a 'roughometer" which shows that
smooth" road is not smooth at all
speeds, and that every kind of road
delivers shocks of more or less vio-
lence to the car passing over it.
BY means of the "rOughometer 1t
Is possible to record on a dial on
the dashboard the number Of inches
or fractions of an inch that car
springs are compressed over CIV
en- stretch of road at a given speed.
These are totalled a. so many inches
Cor points, per mill.
Many things can be deduced from
these results, but among others is
the fact that the finest or nara
pavement roads at the moderate
speed of 20 to IS miles an hour
gives a lift to the car springs OF
from to Is feet In a mile. In
various conditions Of deterioration,
hard and gravel roads give up 10
seventy, eighty or even more rect per
mile, up to the point where the
driver has to dodge the holes even
at low speeds.
These figures indicate the work
that car springs have to do IN say
ing the car and passengers from
road shocks. But when one con-
siders that a spring returning 70

Dolly Sisters
Awarded S1S,20O in
Paris Civil Court

Paris, Nov. 12.-(P)-The hurt
feelings of Roszika and Yanzika
Dolly. American dancers. better
known as the Dolly sisters are worth
$4,000 francs (about S1S,2OO) under
an award granted them in the civil
court today.
The Dolly sisters thus came out
victorious in their suit against the
Moulin Rouge Theatre. which they
claim wounded their pride by prom
ising that they would be the big
stars of a show in 1924 and then
giving the French dancer, Mistingu-
cite more money and just as much
publicity.
The civil court, in awarding fhe
damages, decided that the theatre
had not fulfilled it's obligations I'M
dertaken with the Dollys. The AM
erican dancers had been signed up
at 5000 francs daily in August, 1924.
and were promised that no name

theirs on the advertisements pro-
Hn VerLising would

Later the theatre hired Mistinguette
at J,UUU francs oaily. and, according
to the Dollys, gave her a better OPP
portunity to star.

Chicago Produce Market
Chicago. Nov. 12.-fp

CnlcdSO, NOV. lZ-{P1
Wheat values underwent a decided
tumble here today in concert with
lower quotations at Liverpool and be-
cause OF fresh breaks in the corn mar
ket. General selling of wheat took
place Notwithstanding that Liverpool
of the British coal strike having prac-
tically been settled. Corn reached all
around new low price records for the
season.
Chicago closing quotations on wheat
were heavy, % to IL net lower, corn
visions unchanged to setback of %
cents.
Wheat prices began to give way as
soon as the market was open. General
selling developed and the finish was at
almost the days bottom level In
creased estimates of yield reported
both from Canada and Australia added
to the effect of lower quotations at
Liverpool, and so, likewise, did talk
that European buyers were holding off
expecting a better ocean freight rate
basis to result from settlement of the
British coal strike. Some authorities,
however, contended that even after
the strike was ended it would be
considerable time before many vessels
would again get back into service in
stance likely to prolong a demand for
wheat from Canada and the United
States.
Corn traders construed the United
States government corn crop report as
bearish, the report showing 100000
bushels yield in excess of October fig
ures. 1t appeared to be overlooked
that the percentage of merchantable
corn is only 1875, the lowest with
three exceptions in more than 40
years. Oats sympathized with corn.
Despite higher prices on hogs most
of the day, provisions were responsive
chiefly to corn weakness.

Sorrow Widespread ~
In Washington Over
Passing of "Uncle .Joe''

washington, Nov. 12-(P)-Intimate
memories that span a full half cen
Jury made the passing of Uncle Joe
cannon an occasion of universal sor-
row in Washington.
NO other public man Of his time
was at once so strongly hated poIiti-
Gahy ana so strongly loved personal
~. The heads of the leaders of all
parties We're bowed when they heard
of his death. ''' u
Inc capital had not seen him TO,
many months but he was one whose
iHidge fingered clear cut in the mem
ores or the great and the lowly. For
generation his slight figure was a
lamlllar part of the unfolding panor-
anna OF national politics and govern
ment. And in that period he became
just as truly O landmark of the Cant
tai city itself. Recollections of his
vitality and his eccentricities linger
IN crowded legions about the Hobbies
or congress, in the corridors of the
chief hotels, and along PENNSYLVANIA
avenue.
He is best remembered, perhaps. as
the unbending speaker, ruling the
mouse as If 1T had been q schoolroom
and then accepting unbendinglv the
political threshing that meant the end
Of his political mastery but left him
still patriarch and an honored
friend in the eyes Of his associates.
The story Of the struggle that saw his
overthrow Is one of the classics of
reminiscent Washington. 1t has be-
come part of history how for weeks
he warded off the Inevitable, refusing
with iron will to give his enemies the
opportunity of recognition on the
house floor, and thus bottling up the
resolution which was to oyerturn
house rules and place the conduct of
business in the hands of the members
themselves
One of the first to pay tribute al
his bier was George w. Norris of Ne
baSka, now an insurgent senator, and
in those days the insurgent member
who led the fight on "Cannonism."
Norris, who carried in his pocket
for many days the fateful resolution.
changing the manner of committee
appointments and the generally ac-
certed method of house procedure,
before he finally was able to break
through the steel-clad armor of the
speakers watchfulness, once he got
the floor led a day and night battle
that did not end until the days of
Gear Cannon" had been terminated
II do not believe he ever did any
thing that he did not believe was
right" said Senator Norris today.
"Tnere never was anything persona
in our fight. We represented differ
ent ideas, that was all. He had
wonderful record of public service
Senator Boz alb of Idaho described
him as picturesque figure, belong
ing to another era, but a great Am
erican and a patriot of the Lincoln
type" Senator Wadsworth called him
zone of the greatest figures American
politics has ever known" Senator
Glass of Virginia declared him one of
the most diligent members who ever
sat in congress, and the protector of
the federal treasury against raids OF
all descriptions"
