‘MONDAY'S ENTERTAINMENT.

_ The musical comedy "Irene," to he presented on Monday and Tiles- day nights ‘in the Prince Edward Theatre. promises to be one of out- standing merit. The cast includes some of the best musical talent in the city; the scheme of the play is bright and breezy, and the many rehearsals held during the past few weeks have demonstrated clearly that the whole program is well in‘ hand. The proceeds of the enter- tainment are in aid of the Knights of Columbus Charity l-‘utid. a pur- pose which becomes a ditty anti n privilege for all trlnsses oi' citizens.

We have no more thieves in Charlottetown than‘ any other town or city of its size on the continent, but we have very many evidences of lax enforcement of law. Possibly it is because we are a small community where ev- eryone knows everyone else. where the spirit of neighborliness prevails to an extent that makes for too much leniency. Many, knowing that s neighbor's sou has committed a crime would hesitate to lay a coin- Iplaint and appear in court against him. The sentiment is wrong, is tiniust to the offender and to the community. it is a sure way of paving the way to confirmed crim-

inulity.

Of the man she says: “There is not the slightest doubt that he is themost interesting, as hr is the most enigmatic of living mcn." - '

Four years ago ho was living in Milan and editing a paper ‘The People of ltuly," and told ltsly what he and his followers proposed. They considered the Italian Gov- ernment a lint failure. They were going to Rome to destroy the Alin- istry, but had no intention oi’ tic- atroying any institution established and loved by the people. There was the diouarchy and there was the Church. They were not tnarching to destroy them or to destroy cap- italism. ‘They were after the poli- ticians who promised everything and did nothing. Their day was over and a new day was to begin.

Men called the march on Rome a revolution, but it wasunlike any that had ‘been. ‘His army wore black shirts. The nunte of his par- ty formed in 1919, was Fascist, and its symbol n bundle of sticks or whips. ‘The name might be liber-

A few only of the net results can be here noted. in finance a yearly dcflcit in the national treasury of 730 millions of dollars was reduc- ed in the first year after the march of the Black Shirts to 141% milli- one, next year to l8 millions, and since replaced -by a small surplus. Unemployment reduced from 600,- 000 to 156,000. lllailways which usually expended more than they earned, no v earning a surplus of 7 millions of dollars.
