Whatever the case, it must @Branted that these delicate matters are pretty evenly balanced in the course of three acts, with the Amer- foan father declaring, “Now I under- stand why God made the ocean 80 wide,” and the British parent orying in agony of soul, “To think I should live to hear a child of ‘Father, I love an America: * These rash utterances may even rouse. the suspicion that they are intended merely to call forth the hearty guf- faw echoing pleasantly in the box of- fice, and 50 are not to be taken seri- ously. Certainly the play is a richly musing hands-across-the-sea satire calculated to promote laughter at the expense of both nations. ‘There’s no more plot than you could conveniently put in your eye, just the love of an American boy and an Eng- sh girl for each other and the sav- age opposition of fathers finally giv- ing way to blissful approval. Inci- dentally, Hiram Draper, with the proud distinction of being the Henry Ford of the American shoe industry, accomplishes @ neat stroke of business by buying Sir Percy's factory for about half what it is worth, thereby proving to his admiring fellow coun trymen across the footlights native supremacy over the foreign compett- tor in the great trick of trade, What ig nobler in the theatre than to swell the head and the heart at the same time? Here, then, if you like, is a play of character. Both Hiram and Sir Percy reek of It. They are, it must be confessed, exaggerated types that could be dropped into farce just as they stand without jarring the sen- sibilities. The world’s greatest shoe- maker is 80 intensely American that he seorns the English as “marmalade hounds.” Being fond of his joke, he “kids” the servants id enjoys him self noisily. Sir Pe you may be sure, {8 of gentler strain, one who doesn't even like his newspaper rustied. He simply can't bear it that way—no, reah-hly he cawn’t. And as for liking Americans, he can only say in stricken tones: “If you must poison me, put laudanum in my soup.” Those portions of the play given to showing that the English aren't exactly crazy about us have an al- most disturbingly convincing quality.

Nothing is left to the imagination, When Hiram ts told of Sir Percy and his family he has only to say: “I can see them now," for the lights to go out and then go up again on the caricatures of his fancy. Later on, of course, Sir Percy says the same thing, and the American visitors are shown as impossible gum-chewing yaps. As a matter of fact, the play proper {s pretty much of a caricature in itself.

TO HEAD COUNCIL mors leak out from the executive ses the only other name which es Bishop Brent! thors declares that owing to his forced «b- December Ist on payment of 14 of Purchase Price. the old writers needed one phrase to de- scribe a land where there was plenty and beauty—food and flowers—they used the words “ flowing with milk and honey.” Where there is an abundance of milk there is sure to be plenty of other food. The crops must be good, for hot weather that kills crops and withers flowers cuts down the supply of milk. In some countries, too, a man’s wealth is measured by the num- ber of cows he has. So that it is easy to see why this picturesque phrase “‘flow- ing with milk and honey” is well chosen. No wonder that milk has as sumed such a great importance in modern life—that nothing has been invented to replace it. Substitutes may come, but it is beyond the genius of the most able scientist to make one drop of liquid that 1s really milk. ilk is almost a complete food in itself. It contains three varieties of vitamines—all the kinds that science has discov- ered to this date. Though most people think of milk as a beverage—something to drink instead of tea or coffee —it is really a food. Seldom does a physician pre scribe a diet that does not in- clude milk, buttermilk, or some dairy product. Seldom does an athlete train without including generous quantities of milk in his diet. Whether you work indoors or out, whether you think or do, milk is a food that you should have. Fortunately this is a land “flowing with milk and honey” and New York is a city with a milk supply unequalled for qual- ity in any big city of the world.
