G | ke AMUSEMENTS “Bringing Up Father.” ] More than one American reads ‘with | enjoyment each day of the doings of | Jiggs and his family as pictured in the | cartoons of George McManus in' his| “Bringing Up Fathe But the play | under that name, which opened a engagement at the Belasco last night, falls short of living up to the reputation of l_he cartoons upon which it is bflSPd.“ “Bringing Up Fathe with its machine- made plot and mediocre music, comes | decidedly within the classification of a second-rate performance | Walter Vernon is effective in his in-| terpretation” of Jiggs, and he is sup-| ported by *a cast which works hard | enough throughout. Miss Louis Earl, as Maggie Jiggs; Frank M. Ch Dinty Moore ; Marian Hoiland, ricia Moswigan,-and Harry Patrick Mogulsky, are the outstanding figures in a group which is afforded a rather poor medium in which to express their talents in characterization. | The sto; cated siti s built around a_compli- | ion which results from Jiggs" | efforts to conceal his intrigues with the | pretty ward of Mrs. Jiggs—Patricia Moswigan. To do this he takes the name of Tom Mahoney, in love with Kitty Jig EMPHATIC STAND ON SALE OF GUNS North Washington Citizens’ Association, Firm in Stand, | Appeal to D. C. Heads. An emphatic stand against the sale Jf revolvers and cartridges in the | District of Columbia was taken by the North Washington Citizens' As- sociation at a meeting last night at the parish hall of the Church of the Advent. On motion of W. W. Rissinger. chairman of the association’s com- mittee on fire and police, a resolu- tion asking for restriction of the sale of firearms and cartridges in the | District of Columbia was adopted. Unrestricted sale of firearms and cartridges would be stopped under the motion, and the Commissioners are asked to take such action as they deem proper to stop such sale. Minimuim Wage Repeal Asked. Repeal of the minimum wage law for minors in the District was asked in a resolution proposed by Wash- ington Topham and adopted by the | association. Mr. Topham said the minimum wage in Washington fo minors is working a hardship both | on employers and employes. He said | it might have the effect of causing | many industries to move to other| cities which do not have a minimum | wage law or one with such a high minimum wage rate. “The big thing at present is to have work,” Mr. Topham said. “There are a great many applicants for a few jobs, and the applicants are not particular about the amount of mon- ey involved. What they want is em- ployment.” . Mr. Topham said the District is a favorite experimental city for Con- gress, and that the minimum wage Jaw for minors was a good measure in the years of the war when wages were high, but that it had now lost its usefulness. Urges Building Fire Escapes. Unrestricted use of the appropria- tion for the Gage School and par- { ticularly for the building of fire es- {capes on the outside of the school | building was asked in a resolution | proposed by C. H. Ourand, chairman 1 of th ociation’s school committee, and adopted. The motion also asked that instead of a junior high school being erected in the North Washing- ton section. a full high school be considered. Stereopticon views of the national were shown by -John W. { Adams, a member of the association. FARMERS ASK TARIFF AID. Send Plea Against Imports to Sec- retary Wallace. * INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 5—| Chargcterizing the agricultural pro- duction and marketing conditions of the United States as being critically affected by unrestrained importation of farm products from other coun- tries, members of the Mid-West Farm Bureau Federation, meeting here, sent a telegram to Secretary. and a complex situation is co-operation to obtain protective | tariff legislation. | The communication was drawn up | after members had expressed their views on tariff and_taxation bills to be presented to the special session | of Congress. | MAY HAVE SLAIN WIFE. | Finding of Bodies Causes Suspicion of Murder and Suicide. | CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 5.=The bodies of 2 man and woman found in a road three miles south of Brecks-| Ville, late last night, were identified city. The police believe that Wokaty forty-two, and his wife Emma of this city. The police believe that Wokaty, | first shot the woman and then turned the weapon upon himself. The couple had been married for twenty-three years. Neighbors say the couple had been quarreling for some time. In the purse of the woman was fdund a receipt from a lawyer for flling a divorce suit. A son and Wokaty’s brother de- | ny there had been any trouble be-| t.ween the two. 1 ENGLISH ARCHITECT DIES. MIAML Fia, April 5.—Frederick W!
