It is the inten- tion of the city, Alderman Des Roches said, to install electrically controlled equipment in the play- grounds, whereby music would be furnished at any time, , The city has been investigat- ing the merits of an instrument which was tried out satisfactorily at Westmount last year whereby phonograph music is reproduced by loudspeakers over a large area, The music is supplied by automat- ic phonographs which can play a aries of 'records without atten tion. Two systems are being contem- plated. In one there would be a central station where the music would originate and it would be wired to all the parks and play- grounds at once, Another plan is to install a number of the repro- ducing machines in the several parks, each having its own source of musie, It is stated that whichever sys- tem is used music will heard in the city parks and playgrounds not only in summer but also in winter for skating, carnivals, etc, ---- R---------- TSETSE FLY IN AFRICA "IS BECOMING EXTINCT Toronto, Ont., March 7.--Sleep- ing sickness no longer can be held accountable for lethargy in South Africa, The tsetse, a little fly searcely half an inch in length, which has dominated Africa since the beginning of time by its ability to carry this dread disease, is being rendered powerless by the advent of the automobile, A metal body is not such a juicy morsel for the eager jaws of the little tyrant, This is the story that George R, Stevens, who has just returned after four years as Canadian government com- missioner to South Africa unfolded to the Canadian Club here. He is a Canadian by birth and served as an officer in the Princess Pats, The tsetse sucks the blood of - cattle, transmitting germs to the blood of human beings, with the re. sult that all Africa south of the des- ert regions became a land of little peoples held aloof from each other through terror of the disease-carry- ing ability of this pest, Since the ad- vent of the automobile which is ra- pldly replacing the susceptible easts of burden, and the opening of roads the walls between the peo- ple are being broken down and community interest aroused.

This spring will see staged the fantastic melo- dram "R,UR." by Carel Cu,ck, "Seilurday's Children" by Muxwell Anderson and a group of three one- act plays--"Mr Samson" by Char- les Lue, "The House with the Twisty Windows', by George Greens and "The Little Stone House," by George Hirsch, The one-act plays haveseen chos- en to give most opportunity for de- velopment of scenic technique and 8 wide range of dramatic interpre tation, They will give expression more definitely to the ambitions of the founders of the little theatro movement, ? In general the directors have not failed to conglder box office pos- sibilities and a nice compromise be- tween the older and newer schools of the theatre has laid the fourgla- tion for financial success. The advantage of professional df- rection during.the past four years is evident in the consistent excel- lence of the performances, The plays move with precision and the players' exhibit the confidence of well developed talent, The community drama movement fn Ottawa had its inception in 1913, After many early struggles, but during which several good plays were produced, the drama league is fortunate in acquiring Duncan Campbell Scott as president.
