MILFORD BOYS BAND
NEARS GOAL in DRIVE
Total OF $467.SO Has Been Sub
scribed And Earned By Young
Organization.

The members of the Milford Boys
Band are much pleased with the re-
sponse of Milford citizens who are
aiding the young men to raise funds
with which to buy uniforms and
other needed equipment for the
band. To date they have been given
enough money to pay for the uni
forms, but they hope to raise enough
to buy needed cap lights and extra
instruments before the drive is con-
cluded. The uniforms were ordered
two weeks ago, and they are expect
ed at any time. They cost $3.50
each, making a total of $468.00 for
the "a outfits ordered. That the boys
are not depending entirely upon
contributions to make the drive a
success is attested by the fact that
they have been attending carnivals
throughout the lower counties to
raise funds for their equipment fund.
They won prize of $4,000 at Selby-
vile last Friday evening for having
the best band in line. Persons who
desire to contribute to the fund may
do so by seeing any of the members
of the band or Edward Evans or r.
A. Derrickson. The money received
to date is as follows:

At the BeIasco this week we
have a domestic tragedy which
is finely wrought to its pur-
pose of sublimating the minor
miseries confronting most young
couples in ''the period of adj
justment" following marriage.
Sentimentalist and dreamer,
Bobby Halevy shudders at the
propinquity of marriage, and is
shocked at her realization that
marriage withers the kernel of
romance. She wants that very
specific paradox, husband
who is the lover of courtship
days. Harassed by budgets,
dish-water and other plebian
impedimenta which rattle ac-
compartment to the inevitable
descent from the fleecy clouds
whereon Cupid has a perch.
Bobby 1ebels and her rebellion
is met with equal vigor by her
husband, Rims. In opposite di-
rections they flee, incoherent as
to what they are really looking
for, mistaking for the end Of
everything, what is only a be-
ginning.
Act three burdens itself with
q solution, just as impetuous as
its premise. Happily, Mr.. An
derson is not a Big Panacea
Man from the pulpits of erudi-
ton, so he points no moral,
etches no Ten Commandments
for the Guidance of Young
Couples Who Are in a Daze. He
adjusts this case as it applies
to two. individuals. The world
in general can continue CROP
ing for a solution more gem
eral in it's caress.
The piece is slightly reminis-
cent of the "The First Year."
though I think it has greater
intuitive depth than the Craven
essay which commingled at
times with farce. Mr.. Anderson
has written delicately, honestly
and with a force that doesn't
rasp. He has steered clear of
exaggeration and to know that
this is true, think of some
youngsters in your own circle.
Ruth Gordon, last noted in
"The Fall of Eve" and, prior to
that, in "Mrs. Partridge Pre-
sents," is superb as the head
strong young crusader after the
phantoms of yesterdays moonlit
nights. Humphrey Bogart is a
virile and altogether likeable
young groom who, after the
manner of british males, hates
to be Intercepted about trivial
ties and Graves one interpretive
niche on the plane of existence
for his very own. The cast, on
the whole. is unimpeachable and
the play an entertaining piece of
laboratory.

BERLIN, May 30-Pictures of former Kaiser William are not often prominently displayed in Berlin nowadays, although many stationers' windows show good ly assortment of portrait postals of other members of the former imperial family, Including the for mer crown prince, but especially the growing TIohenzollern grand children.
 One prominent Berlin hotel had until quite recently in it's dining room large oil paintings of Will liam II and the late Austrian em- peror Francis Joseph, both in heroic poses. The hotel manage ment, on being requested by an anti-monarchist organization to remove them on the ground that they gave offense to republican guests, complied, and the paint ings have been consigned to the lumber room.
 A Koenigsberg hotel keeper has found better way out. He has fitted a green baize curtain in front of a large oil painting of the former Kaiser which hangs in his restaurant. Sometimes the curtain is drawn, sometimes it is raised, all according to the poli- tical color" of his customers. And so everybody is pleased.

 A narrow wooden trestle, like a double ladder, supports a wood en drum on which is wound a chain. This drum is turned by two crossed wooden bars mortised on the end of it.

 Day Address Here

The most fitting and reserved tribute that the United States can pay to its honored dead of past wars is the maintenance of policy of preparedness which will insure the perpetua- ton of the nation and it's ideals and traditions. declared Justin w. Harding, United States Dis trict Attorney and Legionnaire, in an address delivered today at Memorial Day exercises at Elks Hall. The speech was an argu- ment for adequate military and naval preparedness.
 The community honored the American dead of all wars in these exercises, with music, pray CT, spoken tribute, with military salute and with flowers cast on the waters of Gastineau Channel and placed on graves in Ever green cemetery.
