like an evening of art mixed with rus
ticity. That is not the case, however.
The Mount Kisco Theater draws its
audience from the community and ad-
joining towns within an area of 20
miles. The section boasts, of course,
of great many hilltop" families,
people wealthy enough to have coun-
try homes on the SUBMITS of the hills
nearby. They not only are regular
patrons of the theater, but contribute
vastly to the social life of the players
Art and wealth, it seems. get along
with beautifully neighborliness in this
part of the world.
Their comraderie, indeed. is one of
the reasons why the professional
group does not get much sleeping ac-
complished in this part of the country
in spite of the fact that it is ideal for
sleeping. Parties, necessarily, have a
way of beginning at midnight and re-
hearsals, unhappily, usually start early
in the morning. In the perverSe way
of directors and theater managements
the rehearsals are figured to be the
more important, so parties have way
of being brief. Of course, there are
Saturday nights, but they come only
once week here as elsewhere.
The one rehearsal which this de-
partment has caught so far was
pretty interesting affair. 1t was one

as little like the minister as Mr..

lnfOrmallty which is as attractive as II
is alien to the theater in town. It is
easy to understand its appeal MOI
merely to the customers who exist in
adequate and growing numbers, but
to the brightest stars who are happy tc
exhibit their talents to the sun and
the simple folk during the Summer
season.
The WeStchester playhouse is an eX-
rellent first stop on swing through
this part of the world to discover what
makes the country theater so -four
ishlng this year. In the first place
its presiding elders are Day Tuttle and
Richard Skinner, who once directed
and managed, respectively, the WASH
tngton Civic Theater. Both not only are
old and we'll known hands in this type of
laboratory theater but also are courte-
GUS. cultured, well-informed gentlemen
who look eminent even in farm
costume
The playhouse over which they have
presided for eight years is more a
paradise than anything else 1t is the
central unit of farm of 500 acres
It is the fanciest farm we ever saw,
one equipped with not only lots of eX-
cellent lawn for spraWling purposes.
but with a golf course, swimming pool
'brook-fedD, tennis and badminton
courts, an attractive restaurant, a
tavern, in the t-prohbition sense
Of the word. beautiful rolling vistas,
wide paved highways, stables horses,
bride paths, picnic grounds, etc.
Hx
1T is not only the kind of farm that
any boy would be crazy to leave. but
one which nearly every big figure in
show business is crazy to visit What
is more, most of them have done so.
Look around the walls of the business
staf1's headquarters and note the
names on the posters of the 80 produc-
tions given to date in the theater On
them, you will find mentioned Ethel
Barrymore, Eva lie Galliene, Burgess
Meredith, Margaret SULLIVAN, Ruth
Gordon. Frances Farmer, Henry
Fonda. Harry Ellerbee, Tom Powers,
Laurette Taylor. Mildred Natwick
Viola Roache and scores of others.
An institution of that size Uttered
with such famous personalities would
seem to be more than ample for the
energies of the Messrs Tuttle and
Skinner 1t is not, however. The
Mount Kisco establishment is only
one link in two-link chain of summer
theaters. The other is the country
playhouse, located at Westport, Conn,
some 80 miles away
1t is neat set-up for every one con-
cerned. producers, actors. directors
and others. Productions are exchanged
weekly by the two theaters, giving
each cast two-week run. one in West
port, another in Mount Kisco Neither
community is deemed capable of sup
porting a single production for fort
night, so it is very fine thing that
each company has place to go the
second week. Both actors and audi
ences appreciate it.
nNE of the rather surprising things
one learns from the management
OF the theater is that New Workers paw
small heed to the suburban theater. 1t

caused a mild sensation here since
their slightly belated arrival Mon

The 1889 Plymouths have an en-
tirely new. style. The hood is much
longer, tenders are broader and
deeper, with built-in lamps. An
other significant feature is that the
gear shift is on the steering wheel.
The Duncan Motor Company here
received four cars Monday and is
expecting other shipments the last
of the month. Tom Duncan declares
that it's the finest car he has ever
seen.

to an industrial nation. In this country the in
dustrial labor situation has only recently be-
come subject of major public concern, and
our efforts to handle it have had no such expert
ence to guide them as England has.
Whatever the ultimate adjustment of labor
relations in America, it seems reasonable to be-
lieve that some plan will be worked out where
by future conflicts between workers and en-
ployers will be approached by both sides in a
spirit of amicable efforts to bring about fair
adjustment. That has been accomplished in
England by the recognition on each side of the
rights and duties of the other side, as well as
their respective necessities.
America is not England, and it is not sug-
gested that the English system can be trans
planted bodily to this country Methods and
details of any labor policy must be adapted to
conditions as they exist in any country. But the
fundamental principles of mutual tolerance, con-
fdence and fair play which have been developed
in England must be the basis of any permanent
solution in America. And the less political in
references, the sooner industrial peace will
come about.

Nowhere, it seems to the Daily News, has
there been a clearer or more convincing con-
trast of the qualities which make up democracy,
on the one hand, and dictatorship, on the other,
especially as symbolized by nazism, than in the
the concurrent deliverances of President Benes,
of Czechoslovalia and Der Fuehrer at Nurnberg.
President Benes, speaking to his own people
and the world, was calm, dispassionate conSd-
cred and rational. There was little in his con-
text or his actual delivery save it's earnestness
to indicate the strain under which he and the
republic for whom he spoke weer and are un-
der Rather he confined himself to rededica-
cation to the principles of democracy, a supreme
effort to preserve the peace and expressions of
optimism for the preservation of civic rights
and reason with war only in the background as
last final resort; arrived at after long-suffer-
ing patience and with full realization of the toll
invited
His whole address and enunciation weer anti
podal to the manner and the affirmations of Hit
ler In the Nurnberg deliverance reliance was
placed upon emotionalism, upon prejudice, up
pom exaggeration, upon impetuosity, upon a
frenzy which made the war urge well-night ir-
resistible. The quality of millions of people,
who would be called upon to make the sacrifices
and bear the losses occasioned by armed con-
f1ict, allowed to make their own decisions, to
think their way through, was completely lack
ing. One mouth spoke for all, and that one
mouth in terse commands and riotous incita-
tons. Embraced therein was the appeal to the
mob rather than the appeal to reason. The ira
gedies of war paled completely under citation of
the two speeches, against the background which
characterized each and in their immediate juxta-
position, is heartily recommended for strength

less appeal to many old-timers"::
81 am rather sorry that the good old custom
of making apple cider has fallen into disuse in

ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR

The installation of new officers last Saturday
night emphasized anew the fact that the Ashe
County Post of the American Legion and its
Auxiliary are two organizations that are rend-
ering outstanding civic service.
Established for the primary purpose of pro-
noting Arnericanism and assisting worthy ex-
soldiers in distress the activities of these organi
cations in Ashe county far surpass those two
fundamental purposes and in one way or an
other their influence for civic betterment touch
es practically every home in the county.
Retiring commander, Ed Barr has left fine
record of accomplishment he surrenders the
duties to incoming commander, J. B. Hash.
Under the leadership of Commander Hash and
Mrs P. G. Wright, new president of the Auxil-
larry, both organizations should have another
