The only chunge possible was a change to consolida- tion of interests—the naming a single person to do the directing. Thus, eliminating the {industries themselves, and eliminating the man- ner of the management which bhad to be changed, the explanation this adoption of a “one man director- ship” must lle in the attitude of the people themselves toward amuse- ments and entertainments. And this 18 the significant point. People are changing. The change in politics; it is seen in daily hahit of action and thought. The of books are not being read; the conversation of individuals differs from the conversation of their par- ents; the manner of dress ard life has altered. A changed audience needs a chance of management. An altered market requires an altered product. The first business of Commissioner Landis, ‘Will Hays, Augustus Thomas should be similar to the first business of the modern, truthful advertising writer— the first bysiness of anyone who has anything to sell—to study his market, the people, not as they have always been, influenced of the past, but as the people are today, making too little of tradition, per- haps, but nevertheless making little of it, and desiring only those things which bear the imprint of progress.

Watt's Statement. Mr. Watts, who is a former mem- ber of the Board of Education, said that these dances were conducted properly when he was on the board and that he believes they are run properly now. He said that it had always been a difficult matter to su- pervise these dances, and that they might be better controlled if they were conducted under the direet or- ganization of the Board of Education. Mr. Watts' chief interest in the ap- propriation needed to open school t- | ly not jn the dances, but in the other recreational features, such as com- munity meetings, entertainments, mo- tion picture shows and alhleflc_s‘ in those schools that have gymnasiums. These features, it is pointed out, are not self supporting, and an appro- priation would be needed to carry them out. The flnance board voted vesterday to invite Mr. Watts to the hearing on the school department es- timates to offer his arguments in fa or of the appropriation. It is under- istood that there will he representa. tives of several local recreational or- ganizations present to back up this project, when the school department appropriation is being considered by the finance board.

The drowning boys seized them and all were going down when Stoffel was summoned. Stoffel threw the net to the boys. They were pulled to a dock.

Washington, July 28.—Postmasters general in the past have tabooed the term ‘“‘postmistress’. Persons in offices have been known officially as postmasters, but Postmaster General Work\now has given his sanction to ‘“postmistress’. A study of the records reveals that under the Harding administration there has been a large incréase in the number of women appointed to run post offices, but the women are far behind the men on this pie counter job. Approximately 14 per- cent. of the offices are heid by wom- en. Out of 7,672 appointments since President Harding took charge of the White House but 1,132 women were named. “To be or not to be.
