Bird of Paradise Is Great Theatrical Success Successes have been rather scarce in the tlieutricnl business during the past feiv years, but this cannot be said of Oliver Mornsco's "The Bird of Para dise," which will be seen at the Grand MMTI house Wednesday, February 14. Tlii pretty play of Hawaiian life took Richard Walton Tullv 10 years to write, ami it hnR proven its worth, as it is now in its sixth season. As Mr. Tully says, "nil hough I put n great ileal of time into 'The Bird of Paradise,' it surely lias rewarded me, for personally I think the play wll last for 20 years."

But if this fails, then either county may go ahead and build the bridge, pay the entire cost, and have entire control over the structure. That it was intended that this mens ure should remedy the situation existing between Polk and Marion counties is evident in the following section: "In any pending case where the pro cedure carried out previous to the tak ing effect of this act, shall have sub stantially fulfilled the requirements of procedure under this section up to anv ing duties of the parole officer.

Along with the serious work of the session the legislators found time to joke a little last night and threw a scare into the Marion county delega tion when in the voting the members of the house rolled up a large majority against the bill. The Marion county men began to feel the pressure of the "electric Juggernaut" when allof-a-sudden the votes were changed and the bill received the flattering majority of 43 for, 4 against, and 3 absent.

Passengers who sought to book passage to the United States today on vessels of tho Amer ican line found they were required to sign n special waiver relieving the line from all responsibility in case of ac cident or untoward occurrences. Those who refused to sign such u waiver had their money returned. The American consul general was be sieged for advice by Americans on that point, but was unable to give informa tion. At the New- York offices of the Americas line it was stated the action which brought out explanations of voters when the roll was called. In explaining why he voted for the amend ed bill, Speaker Stanfield thought in its amended form it wae good legislation but that in rrtfv other form it Was thought to be unconstitutional.
