THAT KLAW-ARMES DEBATE.
Tbe rood natural debate between
Jtfaro Klaw and I'rof. Armaa of tba
University of California over tbe rel
ative merit of Hbakeapeare and
Oior.t M. Cohan aa playwrights, baa
attracted ao much comment that Mr.
Maw haj uaked ua to tell Just bow
II came up.
The dlacuaaton aUrtod In Loa
Angeles," be aald to-day, "wben
Otbeinan Htevens asked me wbo I
oonaldered the beat of tbe play
wrights. I told him I oould not an
anrer the question offhand. Hut I
aald. 1 considered tbe beat play I
knew of, technically speaking, waa
Mr. Ooban'a 'Seven Keya to Bald
pat.' I aald 1 conaldored It a bet
ter play technically than anything
Gbakespeare ever wrote I said it waa
at muoh higher form of construction
to build a play and preaerve continu
ous suapenae without moving tbe lo
cale than to do what Shakespeare
did hang up a placard every ten
minutes when be wanted to move tbe
Audience."
"When Mr. Klaw went to Ban Fran
cisco, Prof. Armca took up the sub
ject. Mr. Klaw declares be a poke from
the standpoint of technique only. He
says it Is not tola concern it people,
In commenting on the subject, choose
to confuse technique with texture.
BY WAY OF DIVERSION.
The things I fall to think of when
I'm needing bright replies have al
ways been a source to me of deep,
regretful sighs. It's ever been that
wben It seemed I might have been a
wit, my mind has always lagged until
too late to make a hit. 11111 Hmlth
will say: "Your brain Is like a sheep's
brain on tbe dead I" And I should
aswer. "Hah!" at blm. I don't at all.
Instead, I make some commonplace
reply that has no point at all. For
something always seems to cause my
thought machine to stall. It's ever
thus. I'm worried, too. Suppose, the
King of Hpaln should say: "Why,
Dud, you're looking fine." It drives
me near Inrano to think that I might
hem and haw and answer: "So are
you," or something on that order.
Uoabl don't know what to do.

IT was a Trm night In Outdoorland

Irof. Dombus's lovely home, Slowly
and steadily darkness crept upon
them. A coot breete stirred among
the trees and a btrd's voice was heard
singing a beautiful, tuneful song, It
was a new, strange song to Besa and
Uob. A bird that they had never met
was entertaining them this evening.
"That Is a mocking-bird which we
hear," the Professor told thorn.
"What Is he mocking?" asked Uess.
"Nothlnir at present. That Is his
own sweet song. As he sings It ho
works Ws way from the lowest
branohes up to the topmost twig of
the tree and down again."
The sons ceased and the Professor
gave a short, trilling whistle. Tho
Imitation of it came back to tho chll-
dren and him from the branches of
tho mocking-bird's tree. Then Hob
whistled and Hess called. The bird
mimicked them perfectly.
It was groat funl The children

This made It all the more interesting.

Dearest Cousin o' Mine:
1AM more than pleased with the
good work that you have been do

delightful surprise. How you would
like to Join the troops going abroad

If you only could! But that cannot
