FRANCE MAKES
POSTAL SERVICE
A REGULAR BANK
Chamber of Deputies Passes
Government's Plan With
out Discussion
CHECKS WILL BE ISSUED
By YVES GUYOT
Spreial Cable f Ins Uvrnlmo Isdorr.
PAIUS, Oct 3 Ths Chsmber of l)pu
t's votel today, without discussion, In
favor of a i)nn to tnftke the postal service,
ii trRUtnr lnnl:tnc Institution. ,A postal
islnns bunk Mrrndy existed In Francs, ami
It Is now provided that postal salnns nc
counts may become checking accounts.
Vr n, checking nccount, the minimum de
ros't required la fifty francs and checks In
the form of postal orders are payablo with
out charges
Tlio Chamber adopted another law giv
ing a pension, varying from thirty to nfty
franca n month, to soldiers suffering a de
crease In pay on account of their Inability
to carry on former employment following
wounds or sickness caused by service In the
army This la unquestionably a patrlotla
duty, but will add a heavy Item to the
stMe's budget.
The fact of Inability to do former work
Is to bo taken ns prima facto CAldenco that
Injuries received In the army were respon
sible, and It rests with tho state to provo
the contrary. Thero was considerable dis
cussion over this feature of the law on tho
ground that It opens wide tho door for
fraud.

Act II A room In the raatle.
ot
In
(Ihlatrlle.
The operetta follows the flair, so far as
Vienna Is concerned. The Great War
couldn't slop the "Made In Germany" habit;
and a complete coat of pro-Ally whitewash
cant disguise tho fact that "Uer Soldier
Hoy" was one of those patrlot'c operettas
which Howled the two Teutonics following
rertnln events at l.lese llut, ohl If Kal
man or ths Kal.es could sea It now
They are Helclan soldiers, of course j and
while there la no flag-flapplnc; for anything
but the lied Cross, tho hero nnd the heroine
nnd all the Important people except Clifton
Crawford nnd his to-bo are of tho Allied
persuasion. Just what the composer's emo
tions will bo when he rccelvei the first
revenues along: with lilt first royalties,
battles a neutral pen.
Luckily, he can't hear the music; for he
would object Just ns much to the common,
place Intrusions of Mr. ltomberc. On tho
other hand, ho can't hae much room for
complaint If the mtslc cut out to let In tho
American ractlme had no more originality
of theme or treatment than what remains.
What we hear of Kalman is mualclanly
enough, but It Is more reminiscent, moro In
the vein of tho older dramatic operetta
than tha mellfluous pipings of "Sari" and
"Miss Springtime." Possibly the war really
didn't Inspire Kalman. Possibly it made
him so vocatly patriotic that all the best
music" had to come out In the process of
pro-AUylzlnir. i:en so, of course, the
muslo Is effectUe In tho two songs which
Margaret Homulne and John Charles
Thomas so admirably sing.
The rest of the cast Is chiefly notable for
CI f ton Crawford and Cyril Chadwlck, the
high Cs of the entertaiment so far as com
edy goes. Mr. Chadwlck Is very quiet nnd
hasn't a great deal to do; but he. always
keeps his art right In his est pocket where
he can reach It w Ith tho greatest ease. As
for Mr. Crawford, ho Is Just the same antic
Infant as always. His voice sails u clever
and decidedly amusing course between splf
fllcatlon and tho prattling of tho nursery.
l.en Ii'h "very red nnd very cross nurse"
had to laugh at him.
Now to the story. For a moment or two
when the heroine was falling In lovo with u
young ofllcer who had pretended to be her
long-cone brother In order to save the
blind mother from learning that he had died
In battle, ou might liavo thought that
Wodeklnd had adopted llbretto-wrlttng and
the name of Victor I.con as a diversion to
while nwny tho war. But utter that tho plot
look some safe, though decidedly dramatic
turns, and all was well.
Just now "Her Soldier Hoy" Is In the
format ho period that educators talk about.
And no youth must bo taken too seriously
to task In those troublous years. Ilchersal
will smotha off tho edges and doubtless
eliminate n bit of Romberg Hut what can
It -do with that awful ccloratna7 Maybe
turn It over. It looks as If It were wrong
aide out Just now! j. jj.
"MADAME SlY" RETURN'S
AT KNICKERBOCKER THEATRE
Herbert Clifton Afrnln Dons Petticoats
for America's Sako
The working of the spy system, as prac
ticed by Foreign Powers, were capably
portrayed last night In "Madame Spy." this
week's offering nt the Knickerbocker The
ater. The play was first presented In Phila

Irish-American Comedy of the Inter

The greatest American comedy success In

or may not account for tho return of the
play to Philadelphia so soon after Its Intro

Dl'MONT'H New i tallies have been added
to the current blackface program, with all the
old favorites on hand.
A little of.vverjthlng with an nhundanrc
of quality seems to tell the story of the
show at, Keith's this week.
There Is something to please, from various 1
angles, whether jour taste runs to music, !
art or comedy It Is all rather delightfully
blended, with dashes of color which ndd
harmonious atmosphere. I
This Is especially true of "Tho Pour Hus
bands," n miniature musical comedy by Will I
M. Hough and William P.. Krledlnnder '
This Is one of the classiest acts of Its kind
seen here In many n day. The hook Is
original, tho music Is catchy, tho girls
pretty, tho principals are worth while, nnd
by way of good measure tho' costumes are
handsome and the settings lavish. Of
course. If one took a magnifying glnss look
ing for tlawa they might Ilnd two or three
of minor character.
Hay Itaymond and Klorence IJaln fitted
glovelike Into the principal roles. Aa to
tho story, a girl Is In love with four men.
She tries to marry them nil nnd thero are
quadruple complications. A stage full of
comedians and girls with emphasis on the
girls Is concerned In the proceedings The
audience enjoyed the act Immensely,
Muriel Worth proved to bo one of the
most captivating dancers seen In this neigh
borhood In a long while. Her creation re
minded one ot r poet's dream. While de
lightful muslo hnunta the air, she suddenly
appears In a beautiful Italian garden, which
breathes the atmosphere of romance, and
lloata away with her dances like a flower
carried on tho wind. Hho brings out tho
story ot each dance with admirable
dramatic effect, Her gowns lire strikingly
original and at nit times consistent with
her act. For lack of adequate) description
It might bo said that they were of tho
Kind which mado the women gasp admir
ingly. Miss Worth and her accompanists, n ry
clever violinist and harpist, scored a very
emphatic hit
Ilrlef reviews from famous operns were
given by Marlon Weeks, a coloratura so
prano. She roamed about tho highest of
high notes with ease nnd clarity. Inci
dentally she overflows with magnetism nnd
received warm approval,
Genevieve Cliff and company were seen In
their artistic sketch, "A llrcath of Old Vir
ginia." Tha act has been reviewed In these
columns before. It Ihoiio of the few sketches
ln vaudeville which Increases In charm the
more 11 is seen,
Hans Hanke, a talented pianist, com
muned with tho old masters with telling re
sults. A constant flow of fun emanated from
"The Ilelle of BliuHtlle." which was pre
sented with good effect by Fred Whitfield
and Marie Ireland, assisted bv Low Mi.r.
dock.
A delight for the kiddles was provided
by Apdalo's Zoological Circus. It would
tako a little fairy book to describe this act.
Imagine a bear riding u bicycle nnd playing
a banjo nt the same time. And w hllo that's
going on Just think of a dog fighting a
baboon In n tree, and a chariot race be
tween bears und monkeys. Thero were
rope-skipping dega and tango bears nnd a
monkey wedding well, thero was so much
fun that one couldn't keep track of It.
Loney Haskell, n veteran monologlst with
a good memory, managed to hold the stage
nearly fourteen minutes. j. a. C.
Native Sons Globe
"California's Forty Native Sons" In a
series of drills, rhythm running, music, de
fense cnllsthenlcs nnd tumbling, heads an
unusually attractive bill at tho Globo Thea
ter this week. The exhibition )s under tho
leadership of Sydney S. Plciotto. and a
military band adds greatly to the success
of the piece. Svengalla and Mile, llelenta
entertained and mystified by their feats of
thought transference. "The Hroken Mirror "
a playlet offered by Schwartz Hrothers nnd
company, was also well recey3d
The remainder of the bill Included Scott

hlack-faco skit which was up to the minute
in Ideas nnd wit? These comedians are
among tho very few In vaudeville who pre

This time It Is tho general level of Mo
rosco productions that has risen. 'The
Intrigue" has not only the clear and effect
ive direction nnd the excellent settings,
locations, lighting and photography which
have been put Into this company's feature
films In the last few months. It also has
a story The story Is pretty steep on the
melodramatic side of the entertainment
mountain It Involves two warring nations
in a fight for the "radium gun" of nn Ameri
can inventor nnd brings over a countess
disguised as n serving maid. I'ltlmately.
instead of winning the Invention for her
own country, she Induces the Inventor to
destroy It fur Inr, nt !,. "i'.,..,i. ,tAi

treatment of character. Miss Clayton, tm
sh never dona "the Great DIvMV In 0

for her erformanc in the new WorM

she portrays that of a cabaret elMrer will
an Illegitimate daughter, -who forW hsr

If you like plain tales from the plains;
swift riding and shooting, the jail burnlmt
down while the beautiful heroine chokes In
side ; a hero whoso manliness Is aa evident
as his muscles ; a story that Is as simple and
as likely as a fairy tale, nnd alt the para,
phernalla of the fancied West, you wilt like
this motion picture. Once again does Mr.
Farnum poso nnd battle robustly, once
..,, iS nc luo quicK on tne trigger, both
literally and emblematically, and once, again
does tho final fade-out show him wrapped
In a pair of feminine arms before "Passed

your sentimental and stirring hour and ten
minutes of absorption There's not a vast
deal else that can be said of the new Fox
film, except that there's a marked better
ment In the photography. In spots. That
rough, scratchy rtnlsh that used to mar the
compnny's pictures has gone, nearly, and
the Interiors are softer, Some flashes of
horsemen on the cactus-studded prairie and
tho exterior of the burning Jail are the
artistic highlights of tho feature. The Ituby
