That scene was the most emo- ticnal of the monologues, and gave the dramatist's grasp of the many large and small characteristics pop- ularly ascribed to Italian-Ameri- i cans. Even her Italian was suitable, down to the last imprecation. Most varied single sketch perhaps was her Studio Evening, where first 'she appeared as a slightly confused ,modern hostess; then in less than {a minute returned from the wings the perfect model of a tortoise- shell-bespeciacled poetess. Another quick change, and she re- appeared a Russian Countess, with a “complete descripticn of Russia” as far as Buckingham Palace in London before she disappeared once more, to return as a teacher of the Maggie and Jiggs school of voice culture, which learns a new tech- year, and sings only with the aid of a voluminous | filmy scarf. The number India told the most, with the egreatest background of feeling and culture. There was a reserve, and complete mastery of the woman’s revulsion for the country, her sympathy for her suc- her homesickness and her disappointment. ‘Wherever they live, and in what- éver circumstances or time, the per- sonality types of people are anend- less source of enjoyment and re- flection for the discerning student. Miss Crawford is a cartoonist, and works with much the same tools of elimination and emphasis as the man with the pen. Her technique can be barbed as well, and has a quality of reaching below the sur- face of suggestion. — .- IF YOUr MONEY i3 NOT EARNING FOUR PERCENT it will pay you to investigate our offerings in well chosen investments, ALAS- /KA FINANCE CORPORATION, | Cooper Building, 4th and Main. adv. 574-tf - e It is estimated there are more than 80 million fibers in a pound of cotton. year; the Grade School building, pensive heating units. Council approved the school bud- get of $29,68150, then asked Cole’s and Gaylord's opinions on the problem® of purchasing the High School building from FWA, as Mr. McGinty was again pressing for a substantial offer from the city. Cole pointed out that the city would be forced to build an ade- quate school building in the near Luture as all the present establish- ments were thoroughly inadequate and expensive to maintain. He recommended the construction of one large permanent building — pointing out that such an invest- ment would mean a substantial caving to the city in time. Council then voted to again consult Dele- lin five minutes. The Countess got gate E. L. Bartlett in the hope that some reasonable solution could te found. A letter from Atiorney R.
