AMfiniCA need not bo permanently dc.
XXprested about tho local triumph of
London-mndo muslcnl comedy over tho
Oerman-Amerlcnn product: "Tonight's
tho Night" Vb. "Tho I..idy In nod." A
t6vr -weeks ro, wb had "Hello, Ilroad'
way'" and next season wo shall seo somo
fit aucceasor to "Tho Pink Lady." More
over, tho piece nt tho Korroat Is, In cer
tain respocts, nn Inferior Bpeclmen of
American enterprise. All tho same, n
comparison Is In order.
Item 1. Chorum Decision to rjnRland,
with right of appeal. The refinement of
the English chorus girl, coupled with tho
novelty of her peculiar style of noso, hnlr
a-d limb, makes her temporarily moro
fURClnatlng than her slaters of "The Lady
In Red." On tho other hand. It Is a reason
able wager that In tho long run-thc-ntrlcnlly
speaking tho mdnotony of tho
English charms would go tinder beforo
tho variety and vitality of American
chorus girl.
Item 2, Scenery Decision to Kngland.
If "Tonight's tho Night" Is n fair samplo
which It probably Isn't tho English
producers havo found out how charm
ingly tho now stagecraft suits musical
comedy. Joseph Marker's firm, which
furnished Jlr. Fnvorsham with his ex
cellent settings for Shakespeare, has
given tho first act of tho plcco nt tho
Lyric an admirable sotting In n slightly
Impressionistic manner. Tho black and
white of tho room, relentlessly curried
out to tho smallest details, Is Interesting
In Itself and emphasizes tho rich greens
and purptes of the landscapo behind.
ItcmS. Costumes. Decision for America,
If wo nro a little pokey In tho matter of
scenery, wo outshlno our rlvula In cos
tuming. Whether It Is Mclvlllo Kills, of
tho "Winter Garden; somo Now York mo
diste or tho unnamed designer of "Tho
Lad- In lied," our musical comodloa show
a color effect In variety and mass that
the Jumbled commonplnces, or nt best
eccentricities, of London nevor canal.
Item -I, Players Decision for England.
Many of the Americans In musical com
edy aro admirable. Ah comedians, lead
ing men, dancers and soprano heroines
with a senso of humor, our players have
ftno abilities and Individual flavor. The
English, however, can boast as much, and
thoy add to that a personal distinction
and a polish that wo can't touch. "To
night's tho Night" nnd "Tho Lady In
Red" aro good enough proof.
Item 6. Stngo Management Decision for
England in the present case; reversed In
general. It happens that tho present ox
omplo of London musical comedy has
much of n decidedly clovor naturo In Its
chorus evolutions and stunts of Btago
management. "Tho Lady In Ited," on tho
contrary, seems principally deficient In
Just tho field where America genorally
excels. Ono would hardly havo believed
that Frank Smlthson could dovlso nothing
better than such old-fashioned, played-out
tricks ns pockat flashlights for tho choruB
and colored spot lights swinging on a
succession or colored flashes.
Item last Boole, Music, Humor, No de
cision; point absolutely Indeterminable.
English Ubrettoes aro usually less Inter
esting, but moro dlscreot and full of char
acter; English humor obvious or else
really Intelligent. But In general our
writers and composers havo about as
many planes of merit as tho English. If
th German-American combination at the
PROGRESS DAY PLANS
NOW UP TO COUNCILS
Manufacturers and City Offi
cials Will Urge Approval of
Project This Week.
Indorsement of tho plan for a Progress
Day In connection with tho national
Fourth of July celebration has been
given by tho Mayor and tho directors of
tho various city departments. All that
remains now to mako It an ofllclal part
of tho program lstho approval of Coun
cils' Fourth of July Committee. Tho plan
Will be submitted to tho members of tho
committee by its chairman, Common
Councilman John H. Balzley, who per
sonally favors tho project and who lias
expressed tho belief that It would bring
beneficial results.
Tho fact that nearly two score of tho
leading manufacturers of tho city, who
collectively employ several hundred thou-
sand persons, havo Indorsed the project
has convinced tho city officials that tho
"plan Is deserving of hearty co-operation.
Tno city s aiutuan is summeu up in
tho remarks of Director Porter.
"I think that tho plans for a Progress
Day, as ndvocated by tho leading Indus
trial concerns." ho said, "Is a very prac
tical undertaking. Even many of our own
residents are unawaro of the fnct that
Philadelphia is one of the leading manu
facturing centres of thn country. An this
event also commemorates the COth anni
versary of the closing of the Civil War, It
Is well, too, I believe, to let the peopla
aea the progress which has been made 'In
ell directions.
"Speaking for tho Department of Pub
lic. Saety, I can say that It will be rep
resented by both tho Poltco and Flro De
partments. The various stages of ad
vancement from tho early days to the
present, especially in tho Flro Depart
ment, will In Itself prove a. decidedly In
teresting' exhibit Tho evolution In the
way of apparatus, methods and general
equipment can bo shown, by striking ex
hibits which would tell the story at a
Blanco,
"The police Department coma also con
tribute some Interesting Illustrations In
that connection. There Is evidence al
ready of a real get-together spirit for
the occasion, and I hopo to see it tnrougn
to a. successful culmination."
The Organization Committee of manu
facturers directing- the movement includes
RMonttomery Wright, of the J. B. Stet-
uon company, cnairman; ju, i. Jiawie. j.
I'm. Brill Car Company: xxrais J. Koib,
RjCoIp Baking" Company: Ernest T, Trigg,
-John Lucaa company) H. L. Whlttemore,
Autocar company, and i. J. cunning-
ham, Cunningham Piano Company. This
committee will appoint a general commit
tee of V from the manufacturers who
have decided to participate In the In
dai trial demonstration.
As It will be necessary to have speedy
artion In order to bring about proper re-
cults, the petition to Councils' Fourth of
July Committee asking Its co-operation
wilt be sent during the next week.

"CENTRAL" HEARS ROBBERS
LOOTING HOSIERY PLANT
When Thoy Knock Down Phone, Girl
Notifies Police, Preventing Thefts.
Mlsa Henrletto Mtddleton, an operator
In tho north branch exchango of tho
Keystone Telcphono Compnny, frustrated
a robbery at tho Reliance Hosiery Com
pany's plant, 4345 Wakefield street, Ger
mnntown, early today, when Intruders
Inadvertently npprlscd tho young wom
an of their Intention to ransack tho
plnce. The robbers accidentally knocked
down a telcphono Instrument after break
ing Into tho establishment, and their
growls of alarm over their carelessness
were heard by Miss Mtddleton. who sent
word to tho Germantown police station.
This was tho second tlmo thieves had
notified tho north branch exchange of
their unlawful presence In patrons' of
fices. "Hang up that phone, quick. They're
wise already now I guess." That was
tho hoarse message that greeted the ear
of Miss Mtddleton when tho light of tho
wlro Into tho exchange from tho mill
flashed. Ilcmemberlng that Miss Vera
McMenamln, nnother operator in the
same exchange, stopped two men from
robbing the coal oltlco of Charles A.
Strouse. Scotts lane and Itldgo avenue,
about six weeks ago, tho young operator
acted promptly.
Put tho robbers probably had also read
of Miss Mc'l.cnamln'a presence of mind,
which resulted In tho capture of tho man
that betrayed his presence. They failed
to wait for tho arrival of Lieutenant
Buohanan and a squad of police, and de.
parted without waiting to tnke along a
bag that they had tilled with valuable
goods. There was a largo amount of
money In the safe at the hosiery plant.

Otin of tho mnnv funny scenes In tho
Scottish comedy, "Kilty MacKay," which
comes tn tho Adolplll Monday night, Is
tho Bceno where quick-wilted and "man
nglns" Kitty and slow-thlnklng "Mag"
Btnrt (o straighten out somo mysterlei
concerning tho Hlble.
Mag it's no fair making Christianity
llko walking a tightrope; ono topple and
over you go.
Kitty-Aye, nnd the other road so plrns
ant. Why wouldn't It bo a good Idoa for
you nnd mo to icwrlto tho weak parts?
Jtog It would tako time, hut I'd do It.
Kitty Yoti'ro right It would talo tlmo
thero nro a lot of things that need ex
plaining. Mag Tho first thing to bo ousted would
bo that Jonah tnlo. I nover could swal
low thnt fish Htory.
Kitty Nor I. Wo won't change tho
I2ngllt,h version, though; tho English
would believe anything, Tho next thing
to go would bo thoso brazen begnts.
Mag Good. Tho Hoods aro a bit over
done, don't you think?
Kitty Aye, a weo bit, but It's a tick
lish matter to tinker with tho flood.
Mag How about tho Gnrdon of Eden
talo? Will you tamper wltn that?
Kitty Well, wo must leave something
spicy or tho book'll nevor got read. Lis
ten, Mag, Adam and Hvo had two sons,
didn't they?
Mag Aye, Cain nnd Abel.
Kitty But no lassies.
Mag No, no lasslcfl.
Kitty Woll, who did tho Adams boys
marry nnd keep on populating tho
world? Will you tell mo that?
Mag Don't look at mo I had nothing
to do with their goings on.
Kitty Somo lasslo did. Somo lassie had
to to mako tho rest of tho Bible spin
out.
Mag Jtaybo it was some huzzy neigh
bor. Kitty Oh, Magi Didn't you know thero
wna no ono born but tho Adamses?
Mng You'ro right, I'd forgotten
Kitty Perhaps wo had better not start
a scandal nt this lato date.
Mag You'ro euro ono of tho laddies
didn't marry a monkey In tho nrk.
You know somo sny wo como o'
monkoys.
Kitty I'd thought of that, and It
would solvo tho problem, If thero were
no Scots to bo considered.
Mag You'ro right. Tho raco would
havo been nil English In that case.
Kitty Maybe tho Scots wero foreigners
and camo later.
Mag I wish It could bo proved.
Kitty Leavo It to mo. I'm working on
thnt now.
