In those DAYS the moving picture
was an accomplished fact. but was
not taken seriously as a possible
successor to the opera. and Tacoma
enjoyed the spoken drama and
opera to an extent equaled in few
other cities. One reason. besides
the fact that this was a good box
office town. was the Tacoma the
alter. considered the finest for its
size on the Pacific Coast.
In the list of stage celebri-
ties which visited Tacoma then
were Madame Mod ieska, who
made superb presentation of
the character of Lady Mac
Beth; Charles u. Hanford and
Marie Drofnah. in Ingomar.
That year WI also had Madame
Gadshi, brought here by the
Ladies Musical club. and Ma
dame Schumann- Heink, then
at the height of her brilliant
career.
We also frequently heard such
theater folk as Edna Wallace Hop
per. Olga Nethersole. Blanche
Bates, Florence Roberts, DeWolfe
Hopper Climaxing the spectacu-
lar performances was Ben Hur.'
in which two four-horse chariot
teams galloped madly across the
stage. Ben Hur,s four Arabs gain
ing length on The team driven
by the Roman. MESSIAH, before the
lights went out.
Among all these great perform
ances. the one most talked of was
the San Carlos presentation of Lii
lian Nordica in La Traviata."
There are indications that the
old stage shows are coming back,
not to supplant but to supplement
the motion picture performances.
The strength of the comeback is
indicated in Tacomas interest in
the two Verdi operas.

Lloyd Suffer brought about a
great change in the tire problems
OF the average car owner. At the
slower speeds at which we used TO
operate our cars the danger of
skidding was greatly reduced as
was the danger of blowoufs. In
those days ii was possible to use

safety. even after the tread was
practically worn away.

though the carcass be perfectly

MINNESOTANS
BEST THE SOUTH
RAISING CARROTS

Gardeners in Northern Minnesota
have aroused the wonder and envy
of gardeners in states farther south
by getting fresh spring carrots three
to four weeks earlier than their south
ern gardening brethren.
Numerous queries regarding this
are received by the vegetable experts
of the Ferry-Morse Seed Breeding
Station who explain that the seed OF
a number of vegetables is capable OF
withstanding extremely low temper
iatures without losing vitability. The
Minnesotans, they explain, have a.
chieved the extremely early crops by
planting seed late in the preceding
fall. Seed sown at this time does not
geminate at once, remaining dormant
under heavy blanket of snow. The
first warm weather of spring releases
it from it's dormancy and gives it a
head start over seed planted in the
customary way.
Other seeds with similar ability
to withstand low temperatures with
out losing life include lettuce, beets,
cabbage, radish, peas, onions, parsnips
and spinach.
1t should be noted that the success
of fall planting depends on the seeds
remaining frozen all winter under
heavy snow. This method of plant
ing cannot be used, therefore, in areas
where the seeds will be subjected to
alternate thawing and freezing.

been approved by several women's
clubs and other organizations on the
peninsula, notably the Cecil County
Democratic Women's Club and Wor-
cester County Woman's Club.
In seven of the nine Eastern Shore
counties, records show, the INDECENT
aged and infirm are at present COM
mitted to the Eastern Shore State
Hospital for the Insane at Cambridge.
The remaining two counties at pres
ent maintain county almshouses to
care for the aged and homeless in
those two respective sections.
81 shall continue to bend every eff
fort, regardless of circumstances, to
having the state establish an Eastern
Shore Home for the Aged" Senator
Ward said. 81 think it is Adorable
for persons of sound mind to be sent
to the insane asylum of the Eastern
Shore at Cambridge by any county,
because those persons are poor, aged
and homeless"
The Wicomico Senator said he al
ready had talked with the superin-
tendent of the Cambridge institution
concerning his project and found him
highly in favor of the plan. Senator
Ward said he was told that the State
already owned plenty of ground at
Cambridge upon which centralized
home for the aged could be built at a
minimum cost. While no estimate as
to the probable cost of such home
has been made, it is unofficially esti-
mated that the cost would not exceed
100000.
The Legislative Council will contin-
ue their survey leisurely during the
next few months, Senator Ward said.
The Council will report the results ON
it's survey, with recommendations, at
the next session of the Maryland Cen
eral Assembly in January, 1941.

SURVEY TO LOCATE
HOME FOR THE AGED

Members of the Legislative Coun-
Gil of the Maryland Assembly began
a survey and study last week of the
nine Eastern Shore counties to deter
mine the ACCESSIBILITY of establishing
an Eastern Shore home for the indi-
gent aged and infirm through state
and county appropriations. The leg
islative council, created by Chapter
62 of the Acts of 1899, were directed
to make the survey following the Of
ficial adoption of Senate resolution,
introduced by State Senator David j.
Ward, of Wicomico county. The reso-
luton passed both houses of the 1889
session of the General Assembly.
Senator Ward, who is assisting the
legislative council in the survey au-
thorized by his measure, declared that
his plan to have the state and Shore
counties build jointly an Eastern
Shore home for the aged, already had
