RUTH DRAPER AT FORD's THEA
TIRE, BALTIMORE

The younger generation, whose
theatre-going days have begun in the
last decade since she las. visited
here will find as much to interest
them in the performances of Ruth
Draper, as will the oldsters familiar
with her artistry through her pre-
vious acting here.
After an absence OF ten years, Miss
Draper comes to Ford's Theatre, Bal
timore, for four performances, be-
ginning Thursday evening, May g.,
and including Saturday matinee,
May A. Her opening performance,
| Thursday EVENING", will be benefit
for the Robert E. Lee Memorial.
For Miss Draper brings to Balti-
more complete new repertory created
by herself from material gathered
during her travels far and wide since
her last visit. In New York and
other American cities, students of
drama in schools and colleges attend
her performances as part of their
extra classroom curriculum, and her
matinees are thronged by young
American actresses come to study
her technique.
During her brief stay here, Miss
Draper will present nearly score of
the 35 sketches which comprise her
repertory. Practically all of them
have been created by this versa lie
artist since her last visit here, and
all of them are of as much interest to
Miss 1885 as to her older relatives.
Baltimore is one of the very few
American cities visited by Miss
Draper this season and her stay here
is limited to three days, after which
she sails for Europe, where she is as
widely popular as in her homeland.

DUST STORMS AND DROUGHT

Late Weather Bureau reports that
the drought area is advancing east
ward as fresh dust storms are blown
up over the great plains serve only
! to arouse the fear of permanent
damage to more of our farm lands.
The dust storms that have alternate
| ly secured and smothered the prairie
states this spring will go down as
the worst in the history of the United
States. Huge areas in the Middle
Western section of the country have
been drying up and blowing away
lifted billions of tons of rich farm
soil from the plains and carried it
eastward. People in nearly all sec
tions of the country have wiped this
dust from their cars, their porches
and their furniture, air traffic has
been hindered and in the worst areas
death and disease have been spread
This catastrophe, besides present
ing the vast job of conservation work
necessary to remedy the condition,
| has caused many to wonder if there
will be. drought in the devastated
areas this summer like the drought
last year which ushered in the pres
ent trouble. President Roosevelt
has indicated his desire for legisla-
ton to expand the forestry program
SO as to begin the work of erecting
early date. 1t has been estimated
by one authority that as much as
billion dollars of the new work-relief
funds will go for land rescue work,
! including fighting dust storms, soil
erosion, floods and for reforestation.
: The popular explanation of these
dust storms is that during the
World War when wheat prices shot
sky high thousands Of acres of semi
arid grazing lands were plowed I'M
der and planted in grain. Destrue-
tion of the natural coyerage of this
soil, together with The overgrazing of
the drought-burned ranges that were
left, made it easy prey to the winds.
But doubling this explanation of the
cause, the Wichita (Kans,) Eagle
says: THE plowed grasslands origin
OF the storms 10 now on every
tongue, II the prairies had not
been plowed,' it is said, "there would
be no dust storms" This is plain
balderdash. Dust storms, while in
frequent in occurrence, appeared in
this section in the 7Os, when virtual
ly none of this prairie was broken
out"
Regardless of how long the dry
spell will las. and when i. will end
government scientists believe the
best insurance against wind erosion
is grass restoration and reforesta-
ton. Already the administration

started. This row of trees is expect
ed TO restore the water level and &C.
