WRECK ‘J&itADERN CITY IN lu MM' Staged by R. A.. F. at —Sec It cs Ril'd UJSmxJ to Derby. V. vr A l r For 7” was part of the aerial j gcaut, organired by the R. A. F.. -which t place at Hendon. Every phase of war In -which aircraft may take part -was shown. In addition to the destruction of the Tillage, there was a demonstration < showing the formation of an artificial , clond screen, how incendiary bombs can | be dropped on & fixed object and the j destruction of a kite balloon. There also was flying “stunts” by i famous "aces.” This was the biggest assemblage of airplanes ever held, and every one of the "aces” left in the air force took part. Another feature of the day was the trip of the airship 11-36 otct the Hendon grounds. The R-35, rechristened the Zli-2 since her purchase by the American Government made s voyage over the pageant. In her was the crew which will take her to America. With accommodations for at least 100.000 spectators, it is hoped that the aerial pageant will in time become as big a society function as Derby Day or Ascot Anew feature of the aerial “stunts" wri a relay race by aeroplanes. Sis or more machines started and after j making a flight over a designated course will land. Each pilot ran to the follow- j ing machine and handed the pilot a ! message. The machiue then had to ; Ftart up and get up into the atr —make : another circuit and then go through the same performance until the message was > passed through half a dozen hands. The ■ pilot who made the last circuit first of course, won the race. “This pageant Is an Integral and important part of the annual training of the Royal Air Forces,” said one oi the officials of the Air Ministry. "It fulfills the same functions as docs the Royal Military Tournament in the case - of the army and navy. “The pageant provides an opportunity which it would be difficult to obtain in any ether way of bringing together representatives of the differ- ; ent types of squadrons which carry out j the varied work of the Royal Air Force, such a# aerial fighting, bombing, reconnaissance and the like, and of giving them practice in association with one another.” The pageant !s in aid of funds for j the Air Force Memorial. This memorial Includes the erection of a monument to the memory of the air force. men who died in the war. the estab- j lishment •f schools for the education of children of airmen, the pro- | vijior. of bursaries for the children or air oflders and for the assistance of i officers and men in cases of sickness or disablement.

In the story Stlvlo goes on the stage as Othello. To him the part seems exaggerated for he thinks the Moor should never have condemned bis wife on such flimsy evidence. Then he finds himself face to face with a simllah situation in bis own life. Ah his own tragedy unfolds, he find* that he must piny on the stage the Immortal tragedy of the Moor, with his own wife in the role of Desdem<ma. To enact a tragedy before an audience, which j he i.g really living in his own person, 1 proves too great a strain upon the artt. The outraged but mistaken hus- | band triumphs and the mimic tragedy ; comes near to becoming a real one bej fore the horrified audience. How the situation straightens out forms the draj matte conclusion to “Carnival."
WHEN BUDGET NOT A BUDGET TO BE DEMONSTRATED City Hall Maintenance Fund Low and Comforts Essential. dty officials ure about to demonstrnfe again when a budget is not a budget. It isn't when you use up all the money in a given fund six months before the end of the year aud have to go to the c'ty council and ask for more, a procedure which Is illegal according to one recent Interpretation of the State tax law. But. unless the board of public works ! finds some way of getting more mon-y into the city hall maintenance fund, sweltering city employes and sweltering board members ure going i to have to go without Ice and clean face towel*. Such comforts are bought out of the city hull maintenance fund. When the budget was made last September the board thought $£.500 ought to be enough for such trifles, which also include coal for the city hall. However, the board has had to cease approving requisitions upon thi* fund withiu the past two vveeks because there Is only about S3OO left In If. There would have been only about half that much remaining If an attache of the board had not decided to help relieve the strain and arrange to transfer a payment of s24fvlo to Hays Wilson, colored contractor who has spent the last three or four months cleaning the wal's and ceilings of the building, from against thio fund to a debit against another Most of the fund has gone for coal, according to employes of Die board. A MU for SI,BfJO worth of coal, Incurred during 1330, was paid this year and a reserve fuel supply sufficient to last until Jan. 1. has been purchased. The board is expected to ask the conn ell to transfer to the maintenance fund $2.000 which is in the city hall furniture and fixture fund, an appropriation which has not been touched.

CABANNE’S LATEST BOOKED AT THE ALHAMBRA. "What’s a Wife Worth?"

The episodes which follow lead up to a big climax in which Bruce dl. covers the answer to the question, "What’s a Wife Worth?"
