FrOhnan
BY L. L. STEVENSON.

John GOLDEN, the producer, was
in an anecdotal mood recently and
told a story concerning the late
Charles Frohman. Years ago, in
London, Mr.. Frohman stopped at the
Savoy. The first morning after his
arrival, he rang for a waiter and ex-
planned that he wanted his morning
meal served always at 9 o'clock and
that 1t was to consist Of halt grape
fruit, two eggs boiled az minutes,
toast and coffee. He also informed the
waiter that he didn't care for con-
versation early In the morning and
wasn't interested either in the weather
or politics.
Each morning, the waiter arrived
on the minute with the breakfast at
just the right temperature, served it
silently and departed silently. For
two weeks, the same thing continued,
and so impressed with the service
was Mr.. Frohman that he continued
to talk, long after his return, Of the
one perfect waiter he had encountered
in all his travels.
One morning-it was Mr.. Frohman's S
birthday-there came a knock at his
door and when he said, come in, -
much to his surprise in walked that
same English waiter with the usual
Frohman breakfast. The waiter served
it silently and departed silently, just
as he had back in London. Not
until later did Mr.. Frohman learn
that his fellow producer, Charles Dill
lingham, had arranged to transport
the waiter from London to New York,
as birthday present to Mr.. Frohman.
The waiter continued In Mr.. Froh-
| mans service until the latter died
some years later. Then he entered
Mr.. Dillingham's employ and was in
charge Of the house until after Mr..
Dillingham; married.
Mr.. Golden told the story at lunch
con in one of the larger hotels. Find
ing he had forgotten his glasses, in
his usual spontaneous manner, he
borrowed a pair belonging to the
head waiter. Having adjusted them,
he looked at the owner.
There" he said, "is the perfect
waiter Mr.. Frohman found In Lon
don."

homes in the United States, being
brought over without credentials, and,
in fact, were smuggled in, though
unknowingly.
However, with the arrival on the
scene of the Norway or brown rat,
pictured here, the two other species
were given to understand they were
to make themselves scarce. But this
fellow has made the most of his op-
portunities. Scattered over practically
all of North America where food and
water are obtainable, there are few
people who have not paid in some
way for his maintenance.
Snakes and hawks are among the
rats clever foes. Trap setting and
poisoning take care of few, but
when you know that rats and mice
compose the largest families of all
mammals, you begin to realize that

Will or Shall
BY w. CURTIS NICHOLSON.

THERE is one phrase which might
be considered q teaser. II lis the
phrase, II should appreciate" Some
may have looked at this and wondered
whether they should change should"
to would" And some Of them may.
They not only looked at 1t and won-
dered They also made the change
unfortunately for them. One should
never say Il would appreciate"
The uses of shall, will, should and
would are a problem to q great many
people. Remember that will" and
would" should not be used In the
first person with IT" and "we') to
form q verb phrase with verbs Of feel
ing and knowing. What Is the reason
for this rule? You see, Il (or wei
will Tor should)" always expresses
determination or q promise. and this
thought does not harmonic with such
verbs as appreciate, like, be happy,
need, fail, know, think. be glad, aware,
be embarrassed, feel hurt, be unhappy,
etc. All we can do is to speak In
terms Of futurity.
If you care TO drill yourself In the
uses of shall" and will" make up
phrases In which Shall" will"
should" and would" are used cor
rectly with various verbs.

he was not to be paid. The broad

News-Week, which furnishes a
celebrity each week, was definitely
arranged for. Everything was set
for the affair with London, scripts
had been rehearsed, and the trans
Atlantic telephone tried out. Then
Owens, an hour before the broad
cast, was told by A. A U. officials
he could not talk because the pro-
gram was commercial.

pointed out there was no tinge of
