A Washingjtoi) undertaker advertises in the paper a $125.49 funeral, guaranteed to please and invites "any interested party” to investigate. What does he meityi, “interested party?"

There is a persistent rumor Unit since Will Hays is to be the manager ot the picture industry the screen will be used to Hood the country with propaganda helpful to the republicans. If they do so of course they will ruin their own business and cause unfavorable comment from many sources and we believe the men behind the game have too much sense to permit that.

Man's dangerous enemy is the rat carrying disease, spreading plagues destroying property. So this news from Meriden, Conn., about a new way to fight Mr. Rat is important Look for rat holes, bring up your automobile. Attach a pipe to the ex haust, start the car and run the gas into the rat hole. Harry Mitchell, ol Wallingford, tried it, dug open the rat hole and found twelve dead gassed rats. A garden hose might easily be run from the exhaust of an automobile to the rat holes in the cellar. Farmers might use the idea to drive rats in hundreds from under barns. To get rid of mice, rats and mosquitoes forever, would be worth to this earth many times the cost of the big war. —Arthur Brisbane in Today. MAY GO TO LOS ANGELES (I nltcil Press Service). l aris, March 1. —lais Angeles will automatically bej awarded the 1924 Olympic games it France is forced to default, Baron Coubertin, presi dent of the International Olympic committee, said today. The French Olympic council meets this afternoon to consider the action of the municap council and it may b< that the council will forfeit tho games for lack of funds. The municipal council was asked by the Olympic committee for ten mil lion Francs to provide a site and stage the games in a fitting manner. The council appropriated only one million francs which the committee claims to bo inadequate. Mrs. Earl Colter of Colon, Mich., is visiting at the Bowers home. Mrs. C. A.

THE FIRST MUSICAL PLAY EVER WRITTEN—"THE BEGGAR’S OPERA” In 1728 "The Beggar's Operu" was conculslng London town with the laughter that made "Rich Guy and Gay Rich.” Two centuries later, lucking only seven years, "The Beg gar's Opera" comes to convulses with laughter the sixth generation of those who roared to hear Captain MacHeath, prince of highwaymen, order the hangman to do his office rather than reprieve him to be consigned to the arms of four wives waiting for him under the grim portals of Newgate. It was called u "lyric drama" in its day, but is was more than that —it was the inspiration of all the comic operas and all the '‘musical comedies" that have been written from that day to this; not one of which ever equaled it for wit, for satire, for the melody of its song, for the roistering vivacity of its action, for the human nature that permeates it from prologue to "happy ending." “The Beggar’s Opera” is a "classic” of the English stage. There are some books that no gentleman's library should be without, and no education can be said to be “liberal” that does not include at least a passing acquaintance with “The Beggar's Opera.” On Friday and Saturday nights md Saturday afternoon at the Majesic theater. Fort Wayne, are to bff -iven the opportunity of witnessing irobably the most unique offering of he present season, when “The Beg;ar's Opera" will be given by the ompauy who created the different •oles in this last revival of the famius classic, at the Lyric theatre, lammersmith, Loudon, and only re -ently closed a run in Chicago.
