LISTEN, MRS. RICE. ORE COMPLAINTS of wolee in New York than ever before, ‘is the report of Mrs. Jeaac L. Rice, President of the Society for the Suppression of Unnecessary Noises, who has just weme back from Europe to resume her silencing efforts hereabout. © The most futile kind of ordinances passed in thie city are anti- jaoiee ordinances. They read well. The police are supposed to} $enforce them with zeal. Everything ends there—except the noises. * Last December, following « long crasade carried on by The Evening | ‘World, the Public Service Commission ordered all street railways, clevated | end cubway lines throughout the Greater City to off their curves and brakes In order to put a stop to the unearthly, that frassle the nerves of New Yorkers. {yletning that the poise fs as bed ae ever.

The Republican candidate should whisper to his State Chairman that after all the public can’t be trusted to forget everything. nis ——++ " A SUCCESS. HEN The Evening World made its campaign to have vacant lote and unused areas throughout the city turned into vacation playgrounds for the children it contended that | in no more effective way could youngsters be saved ftom the dangers | x04 heavy wheels and motors in crowded streets. $i. Police Commissioner Woode’s report, made public yesterday, edwells upon the point. During July and August, in districts where shhe extra playgrounds were later put in use, 312 children were vic- * shims of street accidents. In August and September, after the new playgrounds were established, the number of such accidents fell to £268, a drop of 47. The echoole opened before the special playgrounds *oould demonstrate their full value, but their success is beyond jon, ° New York wifl not forget. Next year should see a wide exten- gefon of the playground idea which this newspaper developed this tveeson to definite remlts. Summer playgrounds are worth planning head. They bring health, happiness and protection to children ia| *weetions of the city where these benefits mean most.

Once again we saw the devoted wife plying the needle <o help her poor but honest husband.

Naturally enough, Chick felt rather, upset morally after the etruggie and with the necklace in his possession Again he proposed a “getaway.” But his wife brought him back into the straight road and together they start- ed for police headquarters, Another detective met them on the way and escorted them into the office of Deputy Commissioner Garvey. Me had been as unpleasant as the third degree all along, but like the police spector in “The Law of the Land” he was the father of two children, and j when Mrs. Chick told him that ghe couldn't bear the thought of her ohild being born in prison, he let Chick, Mrs, Chick and even her brother go scot free. John Barrymore was consistently serious as Chick. He looked as though ho had “served time,” even to a trace of prison pallor. His pauses ooga- sionally suggested uncertainty in bis ines, though perhaps he merely wished to convey the impression that 4n ex-convict thinks before he speaks. But he met the real test of his role by winning both sympathy and ree spect for Chick. Jane Grey left no doubt of her devotion us the wify Josephine Victor displayed grief and desperation as “the girl” of the un- lucky diamond robber, Annie Mack Berlein made Mrs. Halloran a kindly old soul, and as her gum-chewing daughter Katherine Harris (Mrs. Barrymore) was amusing.
