The Wor- thingtons are happy, Betty is hap py and Rose happily accepts the proposal of Justin OFlynn, ar .anorous attorney, who has loved her all along.

LOCAL TALENT
 DOES GOOD IN
 COMIC OPERA
The. Lass ot Linn eric k Town" Pleases Audience
 at Coliseum Theatre

"The Lass of Limerick Town" a romantic comic opera in two acts, given by the Juneau Women's club drew a good house at the Coliseum Theater last night The crowd was responsive and seemed to en- joy the entertainment thoroughly The musical numbers received most hearty applause while the humor ous lines all got over, judging by the chuckles and laughter of the audience.
 The story of the operetta was an old favorite, that of a romantic son of practical parents, who chooses the girl he loves rather than the one his parents hope he will marry because of her wealth. ! Complicated Plot
 The plot is complicated, wher Rose and Betty, cousins, played by Helen Kasilica and Louise Norton change places, for the confusion oi fortune seeking men. Rose, re- ceived a fortune when her uncle died leaving his money to the elder of the two cousins and feels that every man who pays attention to her is trying only to get her money. So when Capt Pomeroy Worthington, well played by Max Pitshmann, son of Sir Charles and Lady Worthington, practical Eng fish nobility, arrives in Ireland to marry Rose, the girls change places.
 Scents Plot
 Capt. Pomeroy secs through the little plot and makes love to the real Rose, who is posing as the still poor Betty, but Rose feels that something is lacking in his love making. When Molly, the maid, excellently taken by Miss Ardeena Leer, finds a letter to the Captain from his mother urg- ing him to use judgment and con- slider the fortune of Rose and marry her by all means, and shows it to Rose, she is infuriated. For the letter said that the. girls would in all probability change placse, but that his instinct would tell him which was the real heiress. Rose denounces the Captain and confeses her real identity but tells him to go to Betty, whom he loves. He does it forthwith-after signing and saying, I'm glad that's over with"

kENNY'S BARBER
is FORGIVEN BY
BRITISH RIVALS
New Yorker Proves He Is
Diplomat: Will Get His
Hair Cut in London.
BY HENRY T. RUSSELL
United Press STAFF Correspondent

LONDON, Sept. 12.-William F.
Kenny's subtle insult to Great Brit
aims tonsorial art was forgiven
partly by the BARRIERS here today,
when word spread that the New
York millionaire finally had given in
and had his hair cut in London
and by a London barber.
And the forgiveness became COM
plete when it was learned that
Louis Arico, Kennys favorite barber,
who had been summoned from New
York on the Leviathan to give the
rich mans almost bald head de
cent shearing. would follow suit
and himself get British haircut
Arico is nothing if not a diplo-
mat. And so. when the British
BARRIERS we're all in a froth Of bitter
ness over his portended invasion of
their field, he wirelessed the United
Press as follows:
From past experiences I have
found the British BARRIERS most eff
cient artists in their line. 1 have
made no statements to the contrary.
II any have been published, they
have been faxed.
This trip is reward for several
years of faithful work I have done
for Mr.. Kenny and he is giving me
this trip as a part of my vacation.
I expect to visit the London
shops during my stay, and get
haircut I hope to learn some of
their best methods. time per-
hitting"
Thus did Louis, with the tact
born of years of easy conversation
behind his barber chair, warm the
hearts of his conferers in London.
Not for naught had he practiced
the art of keeping everybody happy
and adroitly building lust a shave"
into shave, haircut, SINCE,
shampoo and what kind of tonic?"
The English BARRIERS no longer
are sore. They are not jealous or
bitter. and do not feel the slightest
resentment toward the imported
barber or toward his millionaire i'm
porter.
They feel. in fact, that Louis and
Kenny did them a good turn.

LEAGUE STUDIES
ADVISAB|LITY OF
ARMS SESSION
Feeling in General Is That
Action Should Await
u. S. British Pact.
BY HENRY WOOD,
United Press staff Correspondent

GENEVA, Sept. 12.-Whether the
present assembly of the League of
Nations can launch general dis
armament conference without wait
ing for a further agreement on
technical points was a much dis
cussed question in league circle to-
day.
The proposal of Patrick McC1illi-
gan, Irish minister of foreign affairs,
that such a conference be called be-
fore the close of the tenth assembly,
had many hackers. The big powers,
however, we're understood to favor
delay until the preparatory commits
sion had agreed on disputed points,
or at least until America and Eng
land had concluded their present
disarmament discussions.
Seen Premature
Inasmuch as an Anglo American
agreement on naval disarmament
C onceivably would determine the
policy Of France, Italy and Japan,
leaders of those governments were
inclined to consider any action
taken by the league before conclu-
sion of such an agreement, as pre-
mature.
In urging the league to take i'm
mediate steps toward disarmament,
McGilligan argued that a disarma-
ment conference would disclose at
once the political aspects Of the sit
uation and enable the governments
to ascertain just what concessions
could be made toward achieving a
general accord.
Discuss Other Aspects
Without supporting McGilligan's
proposal for general conference,
the British delegation was said to be
prepared to speed up disarmament
negotiations by proposing that the
preparatory commission convene in
mid-November to discuss aspects of
the situation not affected by the
