Operetta

"Daphne's Debut" opened last
evening at the Mayflower before
an audience which was not as
large as it might have been, but
made up for its lack of size in
enthusiasm.

ter of the retiring Federal HouS-
ing Administrator; Miss Marie
Mcintyre, daughter of the Secre-

Mrs. Mcintyre; Dorothy Hayes,

role, giving a splendid imper-
sonation Of a debutante flutter-

for "Daphne's Debut" played
the piano accompaniment
throughout the production, and

both as a singer and in her
dance numbers, was delightful.
She has great talent, a radiant
personality, and perfect poise.

Lovely Marie Mcintyre, whose
Dresden Shepherdess" type Of
beauty makes her outstanding,
played the role of the mother
in a manner that any profes-
sional might be proud Of, her
every movement graceful, her
diction perfect.

rent reports, has been at Metacumbs
Key, where three Veterans Rehabilita-
ton Camps have been wrecked. Cas-
ualties are estimated at more than four
hundred, but recount perhaps will show
fewer deaths. The prayers of thousands
certainly express that wish for the men
of the afflicted settlement.
Meanwhile. the Red Cross and other
relief agencies have responded to the
summons for help and Florida has the
assurance OF the fellow feeling Of her
sister States. Disaster invariably con-
duces to solidarity, and the traditional
rule will not fail on this occasion.
For the future. however. 1t would
seem that more thought should be
given to anticipation. California and
Japan, susceptible to earthquakes, build
with the danger in mind, and Florida, it
is obvious should be equally conscious
of the hurricane peril. Even temporary
barracks, like those of the veterans
camps, should be constructed to with
stand cyclonic attack. The cost may be
greater, but safety is worth any price.
