Wonderful Open Air Theater In the
Heart of the Alps.
What is probably the most perfect
pastoral theater in Europe 13 situated
in tbe heart of the Alps -at Interlak.
en, in Switzerland. This unique "play-
house" is open to all the winds that
blow, and its roof is formed -in the
most favorable circumstances -by the
blue canopy of the sky. It is not al-
ways thus, however, and it has not in-
frequently happened that the hue of
the canopy has been less inviting and
that players and spectators alike have
experienced the interlude of a heavy
downpour which was not in the pro-
gram.
The open air theater at Interlaken is
'used for performances of Schiller's
great drama, "William Tell," for
which it is by nature admirably adapt-,
ed. The stage is a rising meadow
framed on three sides by dense woods
of beech and pine, with a "backcloth"
of grim, gra ji rock towering toward
the sky beyond. Away to the right
stretches a huge semicircle of moun-
tain peaks, 9,000 and 10,000 feet high,
and behind the spectator tower the
great peaks of the Bernese Oberland --
the Jungfrau, Moncb and Eiger, with
their burden of eternal snows.
Nature in accommodating mood has
provided the entrances and exits of
this unique theater -passages in the
woods through which gallop with
thundering of hoofs on hard ground
the mail clad troopers of the tyranni-
cal governor. Tbe cattle, goats and
sheep which appear in tbe first scene
-the return of the flocks and herds
from the Alpine pastures - approach
down the steep path in the woods on
the right and are heard long before
they are visible the tinkling and clang-
ing of their bells mingling harmoni-
ously with the long drawn notes of
the huge wooden Alpine horn, seven
feet in length, and forming an appro-
priate overture. - Wide World Maga-

The word "ball," as applied to a

Who Had the Happier Lot, the Lady or
the Laborer?
A Fashionable Woman, coming from
the Opera in the rosy nest of a Limou-
sine, passed a group of Laborers at
midnight. Machines, like terrible Ani-
mals, were burrowing into the Earth.
Steam was hissing as if from the
mouths of a million Serpents. Rocks
flew in every direction. Torchligbts
flamed. There was the thunder of La-
bor. The Night Shift was in full swing.
And the Woman. glancing from the
window at a certain Workman, for an
instant thought:
"How I wish 0 had that brawny La-
borer's strength and Joy of Life! How
I envy him his Power, bis physical per.
Peak:at, the wonder of bis Manhood,
his freedom from the Shackles that
bind me. He is his own master, while
I am a slave -the slave of a Man I
despise!"
At that moment the Laborer paused
long enough by the deep Chasm where
his Engine rocked to glance into the
Motor as it sped by him. And he
thought:
"Oh, to be like her! To know Leisure
and Wealth and Rest! To be free from
Drudgery and Toil, to come and go as
I pleased! To throw off the chains of
Debt and Worry and have the days
and nights stretch ahead of me like a
Field of Flowers!"
But in another instant the Motor was
gone. The Torchlights dared brighter
than ever. And each had forgotten the
other. -- Charles Hanson Towne, in

At present the British Columbia
Legislature doesn't know where it
stands. Sir Richard says it is dissolved
and Bowser says it isn't. On top of all
that conies the affair of the two
snbmarines in which Sir Richard seems
to have played a lone hand because he
liked the feel of real money The good
guessors are predicting that Sir Richard's
government will be in good luck if it
isn't investigated along the same lines
as the late Manitoba Government is
being investigated now. There is also
meat for inquiry by Sir Charles
Davidson in the split cheque aspect of
the submarine purchaie which has
never been examined in detail. Which
means that British Columbia not only
has her own troubles but Sir Richard's
too -a fact which will naturallyhave a
chastening effect on his welcome home.
The Borden Government has had
enough trouble with spotted reputations
without inviting_ more b,y asking Sir
Richard McBride to come in. Sir
„Richard will be more safely and
comfortably located as Agent -General
in London where he can chum up with
Winston Churchill, the first British
statesman to notice "the seal of high
destiny on his brow." Little did Mr.
Churchill think when he said that the
seal it as about to be shifted and that
the destiny w ould be transferred to
London to a shelf near his own. On
the whole, therefor, Sir Richard's
chances of being drawn into Federal
politics are negligible unless of course
the Borden Government is fond enough
of discards to link itself up with the
troubles in British Columbia just as
the presence of the Honorable Rogers
in the Dominion cabinet links it up to
the boodling scandals in Manitoba.
