WOMEN BETTER AT TYING SHOE LACES THAN MEN New York, Feb. 11. Tying a knot In a shoe lace is apparently a simple operation, observed a shoe clerk the other day, but there are many ways of doing it. The men folk, he said, tie the most awkward knots. Women, naturally, tie their laces more gracefully because they have been tying knots ever since they were big enough to arrange their own hair ribbons.

Most of the amateurs in this district are probably aware of the temporary restriction that has been placed on amateur radiophone broadcasting, which went into effect recently. This action has caused much comment, both favorable and unfavorable, and perhaps has caused some misunderstanding among those not so well acquainted with radio. This order doe not have the least effect on the programs of the large raidiophone broadcasting stations: it concerns oifly the numerous small stations located in ail parts of the country that have been filling the air with all sorts of information, sonfe of which was.

to say the least, unnecessary. These numerous stations tend to throw a blanket over the air, and are really quite detrimental to the real spark traffic that must be put through. Every effort is being made to reach some sort of a satisfactory solution for this problem. The writer has heard a great many comments on this situation in the past few days, and this Is offered as an explanation, so that the public will not think the programs of the large stations have been stopped. On the contrary, programs are being improved daily, and new equipment Is being added to the stations.

Miss Keane entirely transforms herself. She may lack something of imperial majesty and distinction, but these aspects of Catherine's character ae seldom permitted by Iengyel and Biro to Intrude In their gay It is the feminine and very vulnerable traits of this promiscuous great lady of history with which the authors are mainly concerned. Into her sudden impulses, which vary from scorching passion to headstrong capriclousness, Keane plunges with the rarest gusto. It Is 9 cameolike performance that she gives one which, in spite. of all the liberties It takes even with a sovereign who so generously contributed to the scandals of history, is delightfully human "Two or three such sparkling pieces as 'The Czarina' would resVue romantic comedy from among the lost causes of our theater.

Which, however, does not Imply that It Is a work of quite even quality. When Alexie, the reluctant victim of his empress's blazing infatuation, foments a rebellion among the Russian nobles to accomplish his escape from Catherine's lascivious embraces, the play not only deteriorates from the lively satirical humor of its opening act but almost gets out of hand. There Is. though, a quick recovery a little later when Catherine checks her Alexel's ambitions of statecraft, and the spiciest of endings Is in store when the insatiable lady turns her roving and consuming eyes upon the gallant figure of the brocaded French ambassador to her court. "Our producers spend much time bemoaning the scarcity of good plays.

11. A New Y'orker recently met two English women at a North River pier. It was their first visit to this country and their host told his chauffeur to drive up Ninth avenue from Fourteenth street to show them a section of the city they ordinarily would not see. He told them they would visit Broadway and Fifth avenue later and he wanted them to note the contrast. Just above Forty-second street a policeman held up his hand and when the auto halted he jumped to the running board and aald to the negro chauffeur: "Go ahead speed; there is a shooting affair up the street." The chauffeur went up Ninth avenue at a lively clip, dodging pillars and delivery wagons.

At Forty-sixth street the policeman toldjiim to slow down and then dropped off. The English women were aa delighted ss the chauffeur. "A shooting affair," one commented. "My word! I wonder if anybody was killed. Does this happen often? Is a policeman llkeVv to hop on your car any time and tell you to take him to a shooting affair? Quite interesting, indeed."
