Sugar is sugar, from what?ver source or raw material it may be manufactured, but the public distinguish different kinds and var ieties, and are led to this belief by an nouncements, which 1 am sorry to say are circulated for trade purposes, and which advertise the superiority of one type over the other. Canada, following the wise lead of the United States, is doing everything she can to encourc ge a home beet sugar industry."

Though famous for its scenery, "On the Bridge at Midnight" which is due here on Wednesday Sept. 26 is not a sensational play. Its merit is thoroughly substantial and genuino. being a combination of ab sorbing story and one of the most notable scenic achievments of the mordern stage. The celebrated mechanical triumch. which gives the play its name, the bridge scene, is after all only an incident in the story of a blind mother'r devotion and a long search for her lost child. Her path etic quest led her to the city of Chicago, to the river at the point where Chicago's engineering triumph, the huge jack knife bridge, lifts and closes its Huge valves every day to let steamers pass. This operation has been most faithfully imit ated as well the structure itself, after all the whole scene is merely an embellish ment of the intensely dramatic narration of the sightless mother's search. The great valves rise and fall as they do in the original' and a steamer passes through in full view ef the audience but pres eutly these incidents are absorbed into the progress of the story. While the main thread is of sorrow there is plenty of comedy of the bright wholesome sort, two characters in particular supplying it Germany and Reddy and these are in the hands of two exceedingly clever ac tors. Sunshine and shadow follow each other through all the resort to the climaxes and scenery as natural as life and all V STENSLAND SR INNOCENT (Scrlppi News Association) Chicago, Sept. 13.
