DECLINE OF THE DRAMA Brady, theatrical producer, brings actors from | England to play a high-grade drama by Gals- worthy. No crowds. The actors are sent home. Brady laments’ the “decline of the drama,” and says what the American people want are sug- gestive farces. / Brady is wrong. Theaters couldn’t hold the crowds that would flock to see high-grade ‘theatrical productions. if the price were right. Lots of people rush to see sex farces. But they, like the ones that pay $20; a quart for whisky, are in the minority. \ The “decline of the drama” is due largley to} the absence of a decline in price. The trouble is in the box office, not the audience. 1 WILL | The will of John McMullen left $2,000,000, ‘the| bulk of his fortune, to Cornell University.

Cheney. (in Minneapolis Journal) jal returns from the North Da- recall election explains its con- tradictory results. The independents,| elected all their candidates foy state office, but lost all the meastrés they endeavored to put through by igitia- | tive petitions. © Nonpartisan league leaders have cited this paradox as proof that the majority of North Da- kota voters still favor the league pro- gram. liven that contention does not help the league much. It leads to the un- f.attering coné¢lusion that the. ma- Jority were unwilling to trust league officials to carry out the program they were supporting so ardently. Cold figures, however, show that the league commanded fewer votes on-issues than. on the candidates. Every leaguer was urged to vote “no” on all measures’ submitted to the people, and nearly all of them did, but ‘there is nothing in the figures to indicate that the league polled any votes on the “issues” that were not cast for its candidates. On the other hand, several thousand voters who supported Governor -R. A. | Nestos ‘and his colleagues failed to ; vote on the initiated laws. So the; Measures commanded from 7,500 to 10,000 fewer votes than’ the candi- dates did. Here is the result of the official count ‘on the three state officers and on three of the essential initiated measures: * Governor: NestoS, Ind., 111,434; | Frazier, N. P., 107,08 Nestos’ ma- | jority, 4,102. Attorney General: Johnson, Ind., 112,361; Lemke, N. P., 105,575; John- son’s majority, 6,786.‘ -: Commissioner of Agriculture and Labor: Kitchen, Ind., 111,249; Ha- gan, P., 105,914; Kitchen’s major- ity, 35. Debt limit constitutional amend- ment: Yes, 101,088; No, 104,832; ma- jority against amendment, 3,744. Industrial Commission act: Yes} 101,488; No, 106,230; majority against.i law, 4,792. Rural credits act: 105,821; majority against law, 1,888. Now compare the vote polled on; each side on candidates and on meas- ures. Former Governor Lynn J. Fra- zier got more votes than the league was able to command against any. of the measures. His vote of 107,332 was 2,500 in excess of the “no” yote on the debt limit amendment, 1,102 | more than the. votes against the in- dustrial commission act, and 1,511 more than the votes against the rural credits act. Attorney General William Lemke was cut somewhat by leaguers, but even he got 104,832 votes, 743-more than the negative vote on the debt limit ‘constitutional amendment. His vote was 655 short of the “no” vote on the industrial commission act. and 246 short of the vote cast against the rural credits act.» : On the other hand, Governor Nestos’?} Yes, 103,933; No, | any of the initiated measures, though he did not lead hig, ticket. H's vote of ; 111.434 exceeded the vote for the debt limit amendment to the state constitu- tion by 10,346. the vote for the in- dustria! commission act by 9.996. and was 7,501 larger than ‘the vote for the rural credits act, the most popular of all the initiated measures. The two election méasures made a} worse showing than thoSe affecting the league program. In fact, they undoubtedly helped to defeat the oth- er measures submitted. There was} also an element among the independ- ents/opposed to the recall, that did go so far as to turn out and vote to; oust the Nonpartisans. but refused to. ‘subscribe to the ‘“semi-socialism” which they thought they detected in the measures submitted. By failing to vote on these, they helped to keep | the state mosernene as it was framed | by Lemke and his lieutenants. They | really imposed a handicap on the men | they were electing to take charge, of.) the state government. ‘ When the initiative and the recall | are both tried out at the same elec- tion, look out for some queer results. ‘The A-B-C of Christmas 4s All Buy Cheerfully.

Just follow me.” . So Nancy. and (Nick ard Kip, the Brownie;, followed Mike through his little corkscrew, curlicew halls this way and that way. and every way, turning north 4nd south and then north again’ without any reason or wherefore, until finally the mole stop- red. ‘ “Now shush!” he whispered cau- tiously; “We're there! Right under Gnome village again. The chief thing first is to get your Shoes. And if you get them, keep them. If you shoul forget another time about saying the forbidden words, and suddenly find yourselves upside down, wish your- selves back into Brownieland at once before the gnomes can steal the Shoes from your feet.” “Where are we?” whispered Nancy. “Under Cnookalfone’s cellar,” an- swered the Mole. “Now I'm going to dig up through his floor and when | call, come after me.” Mike disappeared then and they all waited. After while they heard a faint “st, st,” over their heads, and one after the other they scrambled up after him as fast as they could go. “The Magic Green Shoes and the key are in the jam cupboard, but I can't open it,” said Mike. Kip pricked up his ears. “Here's, where 1 aome in, I guess,” ~~~~~ | said he. ‘Nothing in earth or fairy- 5 |land can Keep a Brownie from jam.
