PROHIBITION TO BRING COMMUNITY PLAYHOUSE nuici ivracrvaye Mavises using uuiiaIngs as Centers for Drama, Community Sings and Entertainments. Why not turn the corner saloon Into n community playhouse when the law effects the closing of these gathering places, asks Miss Hazel MaeKaye, direetor of the I>epartment of Pageantry ami I>nima of the r ational Young Women's Christian A.s-oeiaiion? "I went over on tlu; West Side of New Ysrk one night recently to attend a community drama meeting," Miss MaeKaye says in explaining her theory, "and as I was riding along 1 noticed how many saloons there ?one on every corner and another la thv middle of the hloek, it seemed, all Ju:<t hla/.ing with llglits. Those lights ought not to go out with prohibition. They ought to shine for something worth while to all of the people, and what better than community drama and sings?" Miss MaeKaye feels that the war has given a great impetus to popular interest in drama and that through pageantry and drama a great deal In the way of Americanization can he effected. Through the community center, If It he in a district populated largely of one foreign nationality, these people eouhl present pageants of the life In their mother eoimtries, translating them Into Kiiglisli. so that Anierh an?and also the younger English speaking members of their household could understand and appreciate their traditions.

A r large belt in some manner slipped 1 its pulley and caught Mr. Johnson n and hurled him against the shaft and v for a time seemed to threaten his ^ life. His left arm and right leg were d badly fractured and he suffered many * severe bruises and cuts. He was re- s moved to the hospital in Florence as 1 quickly as possible and there it was found necessary to amputate his in- j, jnred leg below the knee. At last report the patient was doing as well as could be expected and has a fine chance to reebver. Mr. Johnson has the sympathy of the community. A handsome purse was quickly subscribed by the business men of the g town when his trouble became known. DO YOU KNOW THESE PEOPLE?

COTTON GROWERS MUST HAVE FAIR DEAL cnio lui IUK LUA1UND Atlantic City, May?"There can be no universal prosperity in America until the cotton growers of the South get a square deal," declared Richard H. Edmonds, editor of the Manufacturers' Record, in addressing today the opening session of the 2drd annual convention of the American Cotton Growers' Association. "We are not as'.ing for government paternalism, lhe South is not seeking any favors. Whnt it does ne!c is that the cotton crop ahull be regarded not as a sectional product but as a great national us.-.et," he continued. "Never since lKtif> have the cotton producers attained a fair measure of properity. Every ctfort to better prices for them has been vigorously assail, d in manufacturing and tinacial circles in the East and in England. "If the South had never produced a hale of cotton it would have been infinitely better olf today. Without A cotton the South would he the center of the food prod?cing power of America." ^ j . . . . ?
