PAR CLEARANCE | BANKERS’ TOPIC Up for Discussion at ConvenNext Month. WASHINGTON. Sept. !.—Bankers all over the country are greatly Interested j In the announcement just made by ’ George E Allen, secretary of the State ! bank section, that the subject of par clearance would be on r of the feature subjects of that section s program at the American Bankers’ Association convention to be held in Washington, D. C., Oct. 18 to 22. Two speakers, both well qualified to handle the subject will follow these addresses. O. Howard Wolfe, cashier of the Phila- ( delphia National Bank, will speak favor- j ing par clearance. Mr. Wolfe was formerly secretary of; the clearing house section of the Amer- j lean Bankers’ Association and was a j member of the Federal Reserve organization committee that drew up the original plans for the operation of the check collection functions of the Federal Reserve banks. He also is author of the gold settle- j ment plan. Charles ae B. Claiborne of New Or- ! leans, will present the arguments i against the par clearance system. Mr. Claiborne is vice president of the' Whitney-Central National Bank of New j Orleans. He was president of the Louisiana Bankers’ Association during the year j just closed, and he is chairman of the j rational and State Bankers’ Protective Association, which was organized at New Orleans Feb. 6', 1920, opposed to the Federal Reserve system of par clearance. | Other subjects to be discussed at the State bank section- meeting will be “State Banks and Their Supervision,” "Farm ; Mortgage Finance,” and “Blue Sky Leg- j islation.” This section will also hold during the j convention a conference on model State banking laws. Through such meetings uniform legis- i iation affecting banks and finances by all States in the Union is encouraged. i Former Bartender Best Shoe Salesman NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—A former bar- j tender topped the list of Salesmen at | the recent $2,000,000 shoe sale staged in | the Grand Central Palace. The only thing he ever had sold is no longer being/dispensed; that ,Is, theoretically it isn’t. His method in selling shoes was the same as when he wore an apron. As he didn’t know anything about style, all he said was: "What’ll you have,” and then he went and got it. He sold more shoes that way than any of the other hundred or so salesmen.

KO-KO WILL NOT PIN HIS HEART To the Heel of the Elderly Maid Katisha

No one would ever think of pinning his heart to the right heel of any old maid except the maid in question existed in a comic opera. Yet that is the task which Katisha demands of Ko-Ko, the funny Lord High Executioner in “The Mikado,” the Gilbert and. Sullivan opera, which is being revived by Ralph Dunbar. Dunbar has discovered that an opera cast does not have to be full of spaghetti names to make an enjoyable entertainment. Dunbar last season made a marked impression here with a revival of “Robin Hoed,” and this sea sin he is offering ’’The Mikado” and “Carmen,” with most of the siugers being Americans. “The Mikado” opened a three-day engagement last night at English's with the honors of Ihe evening going to Ed. Andrews as the comical Ko-Ko and Patricia Baker as Ynm-Yum. Andrews’ Ko-Ko this season shows the effect of current events as he finds time to refer to Hoover and others during his antics on the stage. This actor is very individual and before he is on the stage ten minutes he becomes Ihe dominating ligute and he is able to maintain that position through the entire two acts of the opera. Overclowning of the roio of Ko-Ko would be an unpleasant event and Andrews cleverly prevents this by a series of well-known stage tricks. Ko-Ko is the clown of this comic opera and Andrews makes him a very wise clown and a very funny one. Andrews does his best work while singing the famous “Tit Willow” number in the last act, with the assistance of Medora Garo’.falo as Katisha. The Yum-Yum of Patricia Baker, a pretty little singer, probably ranks next to Mr. Andrews from the viewpoint of public approval. She handles her numbers In a pleasing manner, and appears to be at all times in the spirit of the opera. Chester Chandler as Nanki-Pooh, the disguised son of the Mikado, does not seem to fit into the picture, although his voice is pleasing. Mr. Dunbar seems to be able to gather together a chorus which is able to produce the necessary volume to make the melody fill every nook and corner of the theater. His chorus in “The Mikado” is no exception to his rule of presenting a capable singing organization. The settings are built along modern lines, as draperies are used with effect. “The Mikado” is on view today and Saturday at English’s. W. D. H. -I- -!- -IAOrC.H THEY ABE IN “A BROADWAY COWBOY."

SHE DANCES

VERSA GORDON. Much of the dancing to be done in the ■‘Greenwich Village Follies,” opening next Monday night at the Murat, falls to Verna Gordon, who will present the Juvanese and Marionette dances. Miss Verna Gordon is one of the prominent members of the Follies cast, which includes Ted Lewis, the Jazz king; A1 Herman, James Watts, who travesties the art of Pavlowa and Farrar, and others. and then some by the westerners in this little movie burlesque on western life. Bill is compelled tv stand for such stunts as these; to have his face slapped many times by a man; arrested nndor false pretenses and thrown in a cell; is nearly banged by a gang of cowboys and even is forced to fall down a cliff on a horse. So Bill’s life before the these days is at least exciting. Oh, yes, gentle reader, Bill gets even with all the gang before the inovls is over. The movie director and the writer of “A Broadway Cowboy” must hare conspired to put every thrill known under the sun in this movie and they didn't overlook a single thrill. Opinion; This movie 1* a burlesque on western life and for this kind nf entertainmeirt it is amusing, but do not forget that this picture makes no claim ns to being realistic, it is Juat Improbable fun. At the Alhambra today and Saturday.
