point only five miles from its des-
tination to Kings Bluff, with
favorable weather aiding the con-
truction of the line, engineers re.

The Livingston's creek joint will
be of the same type used when tn
engineers carried the line acros

Satisfactory progress is bein
made on the Kings Bluff pump

Uncle Sam had to resort 70 the

Women aren't as conscientious

For a play that has chown to
audiences this world over, in Spain.
in Russia, in Sweden, in Australia.
in England, to name a few coun-
tries and has crossed over $4,000
900 in England and this country
alone, it is with interest one reads
the observation made by co-pro-
Queer Howard Lindsay a few hours
before the initial Broadway per-
Torrance of Arsenic. AS the
story goes, Mr.. Lindsay turned to
Russell Grouse and put out a trem-
bling hand. Russ" he said, we
have not long to wait. 1t is my
studied opinion that we either have
very big hit or we will be rxn
out of town. Mr.. Lindsay and Mr..
Grouse still enter their New York
apartments unassailed, walk free
ly about Broadway; in fact, people
are 'dee-lighted'' to know these
two successful men. Especially has
this been true of angels who
placed little gums into the Grouse
and Lindsay production, for these
fortunate investors have received
tidy returns from their money of
sixteen to one.
arsenic" has been one of the
few plays released for amateur
groups while the Broadway pro-
ductlon was still running. To re-
lease play before the profe ssional

side was considered bad business.
