CHARLIE CHAPLIN TO SHAKESPEARE'S RESCUE split arose over a rider to the amend tnent providing; that only garage, automobile and motorcycle dealers and repair shops and tire und acces sory deulpra should, be granted per mits to sell gasoline from sidewalk filling stations. The ordinance proper was prepared tion to the museum's classical collec tlontion la again due to Mrs. Huntlng- 0iijjJurMtu " pavB uppn excavaiea irom the villa of I.lvla, wife of the Kmperor Augustus. Mr. I'arspns, writing from Home, states that the mosaic, considered to permit dealers within one block of pure design and color, represent the Main street to Install filling stations. Heretofore no one on Court street west of Johnson Was allowed, under the or dinance, to vend gasoline but the or dinance changed the limit to Cotton wood street ono block nearer Main. The ordinance was requested by the HI tn peon Tire Bervlce Co., which pre-- aented a petition signed by virtually all business houses on Court street in support of their request. - Councilman William Dunn, who Is In the auto tire business, opposed the rider and on his first vote aa a coun cilman led by voting "no." He waa supported by Joe Ell and Claude Pen land. J. Hi Earn. F. J. Mi-Monlea and If. J. Taylor tied the -vote by their "ayes" and the Mayor swung In line with "aye", passing tha ordinance 4 to S. Tha ordinance, as passed In Its en tirety, la directed aa . grocery stores and other establishment which han dle gasoline as a handy sideline. The opposing members declared that there could be no limiting of who might sell gasoline Inasmuch aa the city has no aystem of licensing gasoline dealera. The city attorney assured the council that It was within that body's power to say who might use tha streets and aldewalka for purposea of vending flrasollne. - Following the passage of the odrln ance. the permit .requested by the ftlmpaon Tire Bervlce Co. waa granted.

He says: "t think these mosaics far more beautiful than those which attempt to represent scenes of life and country.

Charlie Chaplin has come to the res cue of his lute compatriot, W illiam Shakespeare. At least, Charlie is en 'route to the rescue. He let It leak out today that he Is planning to realize a life-long ambition to present Shakespearian plays comedies preferably on the llgltlmate stage. So the American public can take warning and prepare Itself to see Burnham Forest doing the Chaplin walk on tha trial of the Ill-starred Macbeth; Poor Yorlck wearing a mus tache: or Homlet adorned with big feet and a crooked bamboo cane. Chaplin's Intention, however, la ser ious, and, what's more, he has a aeri ous purpose proving that Shake speare la not out of date. 'There are Just as many laughs In Shakespeare In 1919 as there were In the days of Queen Elizabeth," Chap Jin has told friends. His theory Is fhnt modern producers of Elizabethan drama have made a tplstake in producing it aa they think It should hove been produced- for the edification of Elizabethan England. Charlie' Idea I to bring Shake speare up to date; to reinforce It with the "punch" and "stage busi ness" of modern dramatic art; and to give It to the public with the fact it was written more than 8,00 year ago entirely forgotten. If he succeeds, he will feel that he will have established for all time the Immortality of the greatest of all En glish playwrights. Chaplin, himself, la reticent In dis cussing hla plans, "Yes. It's right that I am collaborat ing with Reginald Pole on a new creation." he said today, but for the further information It waa necessary to seek Mr. Pole, who Is a British Shakespearian scholar. He Is spend ing tho summer with Chaplin. "Chaplin Is making a aerlous study of Shapespeare," Pole said. "I pre dict for him a big auccess. His natu ral taste and his knowledge of music give him the ability to bring out the rythu mof the lines and at the same rythm of the lines and at the aame "When can ho be expected in the new role? Well. It will not aurprlse ma to see him make the start before the-end of the year.. "Chaplin probably, however, will try It first In aome town where he will ap- pear Incognito, to determine the effect or his presentation wnen aivesiea oi his worldwide reputation to give It a test on pure merit." , So American town may now Justly view with suspicion any promising young actor who essays to force Ham let down Its throat IF YOU HAVE A TASTE FOR GOOD CHEESE, WE HAVE IT.
