NEW YORK,' April 21.-New York
City is sometimes accused of, not giv
ing enough thought and appreciation
to' outside problems national and In
ternational. Maybe it's true; but we
wish her critics would consider her
situation. In one week there was,
here within her own boundaries; first
page developments in the supra-sensational
divorce cases of the year;
the re-stepping into the limelight of
the Elwell case through an alleged
confession; 'the Giants' opening of the
polo grounds,' the discovery that
Long Island Sound was already warm
enough to go swimming in; the reg
ular grist of mysterious "disappear
ances;" and finally, the startling act
of local , prohibtion laws and local
enforcement. The most upsetting fac
tor of this was the clause making the
lv man who takes the drink as liable as
the one -who sells it. -'New York is
fairly reeling from the blow of that.
And it's small time, indeed, that is
left for attention to less personnl
matters in the world at large.
When New Yorkers go "back home"
to visit, and when its vlstors go back
home, it is the Metropolitan Museum
and other temples of art and its sis
ters that they talk about to the' neigh
bors and the ex-neighbors. And sever
al thousand big and little fish chuckle
to themselves when they hear the
echoes. For, regardless of conversa
tion, the place that gets the crowds
is the Aquarium. It has more visitors
than any other museum in 'New York
and they stay longer. Two millioi
persons gazed at its tanks last year.
The official Aquarium boat, "The
Sea Horse," starts in a few days now,
collecting more fish off Sandy Hook
for the delight of the millions.
Mme. Olga Petrova, dramatic, vaud
eville and screen star is coming back
to straight drama. She has just sign
ed a contract to appear in a brand
' new play, by a new author, and ac
cording to him, new plot. That detail,
however, is passed without certifca
tion. The play is to open in New York
early in September, to the satisfac
tion of a large number of people, wno
nave always insisted that Petrova
was the real actress of the Russians
we have had with us.
j The tBahain movement, the religious
icult founded by Abdul-Haha, has been
making inroads upon New York for
five or six years, and every once in
a while takes to Itself a convert of
considerable prominence. The latest
of these is Dr. Florian Krug, one of
the city's celebrated surgeons, who
nas announced that he and Mrs. Krug
will leave for Haifa, Palestine, In the
fall, where he will devote' himself to
the religion. He intends to rtlre r
manently from the medical proud
slon, he says.
"The House of Poets" will be found-
.ed here within a week or bo, a ua
1 tional institution to serve as a clear
ing house for American poets. Dr
Henry Van Dyke, Zona Gale, Ida Tar
bell, and other well-known writers
are on the committee in charge of organization.
When we have no old buildings to
honor, we honor their site3. The Maid,
en Lane Historical society has Just
placed a bronze tablet on the building
on John street, a few doors from
Broadway, whore the first theater '.1
Nov.- York was built, in 175Q. The
tablet will also mark the 154th anni
versary of the production of I ho flrit
play by an American author ever
given in a regular theater by a regu
lar company. That waa "The Con
trast" by Royal Tyler, which, by the
way, was the first time tho so-called
.Yankee dialect was used on the stage.

15 or 20 years at the same old line
without making a great splash about
it, ought to consider the matter of Pat
Kooney before he gets discouraged.
For 31 years, Pat has been doing
stunts pn the stage. And now, at the
end of those 31 years; he blossoms
forth a star! His father was one of
the, popular comedians of hte day.
and upon his death, young Pat, aged
11, jumped into ' "Lord Rooney" as
a juvenile dancer, to take his father's
place as ' bread-earner. From then on
he danced and sang and acted, mostly
in vaudeville, until finally, he has
reached stardom in "Love Birds," re
cently opened here. And he still loowo
like a, youngster. .
that he liked the telephon booth
for a sleeping place when his dime
gave out. The policeman, lacking
Stanley's logical mind, still dldn"t
understand his motives. "Why do you,
ran away," he naked after learning
that this was not an unprecedented
event in the boy's 11 years of life.
"Because my mother whips me," ho
explained. "Why docs she whip your
the officer queried further. "Because
I run away," was the reply. There
seemed no further line along which
to query more.
NEW YORK, April 20 Salvatore
Concillaldi, equally proud of his pro
fession and his citizenship has had
large porcelain letters placed upon
the window of his barber shop, in
Amsterdam Avenue, reading "Sal
vatore Concillaldi, American Citizen,
Tonsorlalist."
Indication of the demand for American-manufactured
products and raw
materials from fo;.iign countries is
contained in cable advices received
in New York within the last few
days from foreign agents of Ameri
can export corporations, specifying
the goods wanted and the- terms of
payment. A report made the other
day by one of the largest of these
corporations say that inquiries have
in instances resulted in orders, ow
in to the fact that preBpected pur
chasers were in position to deal on
cash or short-term credit basis. Many
other inq-airies have come to naught
because of demand for long-term
credits.
The exchange situation makes the
matter of credits a prime- one in
any discussion of export, trade and
methods of pushing it. Longtime cre
dits "and the exchange question In
its various angles will be one of the
important subjects of consideration
taken ud at the National Foreign
'Trade Council convention in Cleve
land this May.
WHAT has become of the hand
organs? They have left New York
City, that's certain. Long before this
time In April, other years have
marked the coming of spring by the
grinding of their tunes. This year,
it's only two or three times a week
that the strains of one reaches you.
Both the little boxy ones that strap
ped oyer the shdulder anu -usually
bore a monkey for company ana the
"improved" otreet pianos have van
ished. Hosts of people will give a
sigh of thanksgiving for the disap
pearance, but personally I miss them
grievously, and between us, so do
most of those who speak with so
much scorn.
Stanley with-the-longest-and-hard-est-last-name
I have yet met spent
the other night in a telephone booth,
sleeping very comfortable, however.
He regretted being waked up earlier
than necessary by a passing police
man who took him to the station,
and in the unfortunate way of a
nollceman, notified his family. Stan
ley had been taken to see his' cou
sins and at the same time given ten
cents which he was to donate for
the heathens at church services.
Not caring .much for cousins, fie de
cided to use the dime to go looking
for the heathen It seemed a good
arrangement to him, and he insisted
We 'don't have very much perma
nence in a family or a locality in
this country least of all, perhaps, In
Greater New York. And a little book
shop in Ann stfeet seems decked In
a certain romance of tradition be
cause for more than one hundred
years, the room has been a book
shop. The owners of the building
have died and the property has pass
ed from their families. The book
shop keepers have sold to others. But
always, it has been a bookshop. I
don't believe there is another build
ing in New York, except a church
or two, that has that record.
Food prices are dropping even on
Broadway. We never believed it
would happen. Market quotations
meant nothing to the restaurants,
everyone assumed. And it was ac
tually a shock the other day to drop
into one of the popular eating places
around Times Square and dlscovei
new prices on the menu. I tried two
other places of the same sort Jlie
next- two days, and found the same
thing true. Twenty-five per cent re
ductions right there in the mirrored-cabereted-on-time
cork-popping res
taurants of Broadway.

Like Making a Cake
Making ah advertisement is like making a cake. You know
how recipes run: A cup of "this," a tablespoonful of "that,"
ten drops" of the "other," and "something else" the size of a
walnut.
In making an advertise
ment you use a number of
"ingredients:" Information,
interest, desire, argument,
praise, suggestion, and, al
ways, facts.
These advertising ingre
dients are carefully "stirred
in," ki the right order- and
proportion, so that when the
finished advertisement comes
to you it is suited to your
"taste."
But you must read adver
tisements and test them out
by buying what they adver
tise if you would really know
how valuable they are to you.
Remember how often you
have refused to taste some
dish, and then a long time af
ter, you have found it is de
licious. That's just like adver
tising. Read Chronicle adver
tisements for a while and you
will find they are full of in
terest, tell you things you
never knew before, and tell
you the right things to buy.
