Grace Moore
DisIikes Flying

Singers should sing and filters

and the wings of flight are things

In other words, singers mustn't

Miss Moore gravely explained.

Roadsiders
In 'TriIby'

A play that all the world took
to its heart at the turn of the
century. "Trilby" comes to the
Roadside tonight. The revival of
Paul M. Potter's dramatization of
the most popular novel of the
day will run for two weeks at
the Rockville Pike barn theater.
In April, 1915, Frederick F.
Schrader, editor of the New York
Dramatic Mirror wrote of the
second revival of "Trilby," "the
ardent reception accorded "Trilby'
on its revival last Saturday night
to a packed house may be ex.
planned on Mr.. Wilton Lackaye's
theory that the pleasure is
partly the pleasure Of memory,
but / am disposed to attribute it
to the power of the characters
in the play itself, and hazard the
prophecy that it will bear revival
20 years from now!" And now
in 1885, just 20 years after that
successful production, the Road
side puts Mr.. Schrader's proph-
ecy to the test.
A similar view was taken by the
New York Dramatic News, whose
reviewer said, Revived after 20
years of popularity, there is new
generation since Svengali first
weaved his spell or Trilby sang,
and that is why the revival is
timely. Indeed it was a treat to
sit out this play, which has not
suffered through the lapse of
time, but remains as fascinating
as ever. By all means see Trilby.'
It is one Of the few dramas not
full of creaks. It limbers up to
the present moment" And the
New York World said, Few of
the plays that we're popular in
the COS would be likely to meet
the test Of a revival so successfully
as Paul M. Potter's dramatic YER
sion Of George du Maurier's
'Trilby.' Time has not lessened
the uncanny fascination Of Sven
gall. 'Trilby,' even though rather
venerable as plays go, is still
thoroughly human in it's interest,
finely imaginative in its treat
ment."
Harold Weinberger has directed
the play; in the cast are Denis
Connell, Carey Lucas, William
Jordan, Jesse Veitch, Walter Nc
Intosh, Ruth Perrott, Ralph
Thayer. Sonic Nordholm, John

No Special
Treatment
For Colds
BY JAMES w. BARTON. MD.

BY JAMES w. BARTON, NJ. d.
IN A large city recently 10000
youngsters were home from school
as result of illness. of which 80 per
cent was the common cold. The
weather had not been so cold, but
wet and raw. showing that dampness
is at least one factor in causing colds.
That there are other factors
overeating, overheating, exposure-is
also agreed, but no one has yet been
able to get the special cause of cold,
and so there is no special or specific
treatment.
DR.. P. H. Long. Baltimore, in the
Michigan State Medical Society Jour-
nal states that as there is no specific
remedy for the treatment of colds,
his observations have led him to be-
lieve that the right treatment is to put
the patient to bed at once and make
him remain there for two or three
days. A mild laxative is of value, and
the distressing symptoms should be
treated as they appear.
In fact, if the patient is put to bed
at once and the intestines kept active
many cases are arrested in time that
might go on to bronchitis, broncho-
pneumonia or even pneumonia.
AS you know, nearly everybody has
sure cure" for cold which he rec
ommends to sufferers.
Dr. Long points out that all the diff
ferent forms of treatment now given
for colds-hardening exercises, vita
min feeding, ultra violet rays, vac
cines-show only to well that there is
no special" cure; that what might
seem to help one case, is of no value
in another
DR.. Long states finally, "At present
the only prophylaxiS (prevention)
against colds Is avoiding coming in
contact with infected persons. There
Is no other method"
While most physicians will agree
with DR.. Long in putting the patient
to bed for two or three days as the
best treatment, many know from ex-
perience that eating less of certain
foods and more Of others during an
epidemic of colds has prevented many
colds and lessened the severity oi
others.
Forbidden foods are table salt
salted butter, smoked meats and fish
sardines, herring, pickles. candies, hot
biscuits, highly seasoned sauces.
Foods permitted are small amounts
of meat, eggs and cereals, large
amounts of milk, unsalted butter, veg
etables, salads, fruits (fresh or dried)
