"WAKEFIELD"-Tonisht.
"WAKEFIELD." the folk masque by
Percy MacKaye, will be presented
for the first time this evening at Con-
stitution Hall.
Those who have read the book, Just
published by the United States George
Washington Bicentennial Commission,
and those who have had the good
fortune to witness rehearsals, have
expressed surprise that the character
Of Warrington speaks only once dur
ing he sequence of the masque
and then says only seven short
lines. These lines are direct quota
ton from a letter which Washington
wrote to Arthur Young, the famous
English agriculturist, and are as fol-
lows:
Reflect
How much more delightful
To an undebauched mind
L. the task Of making Improvements on
the earth
Than all the vainglory which can be
acquired
From ravaging 1t
BY conquest"
Many innovations are said to dstin-
guish this folk legend. Through 1t all
Mr.. MacKaye, the author, has been
most anxious to have the public realize
that his work is neither based on fc-
ton nor on facts. but that its theme
is q symbolic and idealistic treatment
o. the mental accomplishments Of our
first President. in direct contrast to the
customary eulogizing Of his outward
ano more materialistic virtues.
Wakefield" therefore, is an express
sion and tribute OF and to Washing
ton, he says, because of its spirit and
because it has a story to tell Its form
is a special kind of poem-a parable
poem-and because it's story is dra-
matte and actable it is a poem play
Because 1t is an instrument for COM
munal festive expression 1t Is a folk
masque, which is folk poem, designed
to be spoken, acted, danced and sung :"
Margaret Anglin, whose celebrated
voice is particularly adapted to the
speaking lines in Wakefield" brings to
the masque long experience In produc-
ing Greek plays. aside from her many
years in the legitimate theater.
The production is under the Joint
sponsorship of the United States George
Washington Bicentennial Commission
and the District Of Columbia Bicenten-
NAL Commission.

TWO FACTS EVERY
COLD Sufferer
SHOULD KNOW
Scientific research tells ,Oats good to relieve the
distress of head-coIds

In THE opinion of prominent med
ical research laboratory, Vapex-
the delightful inhalant-is a safe,
natural, and effective way to relieve
distress.
From their unbiased tests they
believe that Vapex brings quicker,
more general relief than gargles,
sprays, drops, and salves. For a
cold is an inflammation of the breath
ing passages. The natural relief is to
breathe a soothing vapor. not to
force liquids and salves into the
nose. These are likely to be far less
effective in penetrating the inner
nasal passages.
Another important point is the
germ-killing power of Vapex. Bac-
terra swarm in the breathing pas
sages during a cold. And scientific
tests prove that Vapex kills germs
always present in head colds.
You'll find Vapex is a reliable
relief from sniffies and sneezes. from
clogged-up head and nose. from that
depressed feeling. Just a few deep
breaths of the delightful yapor
quickly make you feel better. And
it's free from the muss arr fuss and
discomfort of many cold -reliefs. For
all you need do is put a few drops
ON your handkerchief and at the
ends of your pillow. You breathe
your cold away!

The receipt of teletype message over the police system led to the search of an apartment at 25 Ab- bolt avenue to-day in hopes of hideaway being discov- cred. Members of the detective bureau, however, were unsuccess- full in their visit and promptly notified the North Adams author ities that their tip was not so "hot. The police of that city, however, are holding for trial two Water bury men, who gave their names as James Tyler and Edward Dunn and claimed this city to be their home town. A third member of the alleged shoplifting crew es- caped. The North Adams police were of the opinion that his name was Joseph Williams and that he resides at 25 Abbott avenue.
 Tt is possible that his room is being used as headquarters and a hiding place for stolen goods" the North Adams police wired. Cap tain William P. kecgan took the tip and followed through, but was obliged to report back that there was nothing to the suspected local angle.
 Early last Sunday morning four young men were trapped in the cell lar of 25 Abbott avenue and held for the police. They were found guilty and sentenced to the re- formatory for footing an automo- bile parked in the rear of The Elton.
