An interesting phase Of religious work
Is the summer open air meetings to be
held Sunday afternoons at Nay Aug
falls by Young Mems Christian asso-
citation workers. The plan is very
good one and is we'll told in the Young
Mems Christian Association Magazine,
which is issued today, in the following
language:
REV. DR.. Mutchmore, the eminent
Presbyterian divine, in an address re-
Gently given to the Pfttsburg associa-
ton said: You have park here which
the devil has dedicated to himself
There are enough Of you here to go out
and do missionary work from one end
of the park to the other. Start out and
preach the gospel on Sunday, and then
come here through the week for rein
forcement. We have too long housed
our Christianity. People used to de-
light to come to church and the asso-
citation rooms. They won't come now.
1t is time to uncork our Christianity
This is precisely what the Scranton
association workers are now planning
in a series of open air services at Nay
Aug falls. A beautifully shaded, nat
ural amphitheater has been selected

ira. assisted by leading church choirs
and soloists, will give half hour con-
cert of sacred music, to be followed by
brief address by prominent laymen of
the city. 1t Is hoped to secure also for
two or three meetings of the series as
many famous speakers from abroad.
1t Is expected that each meeting will be
in charge of some prominent Christian
worker in the city. By this means we
hope to reach with the truth a large
number Of young men. who, following
a perfectly natural instinct, prefer the
green trees and the shady hooks of the
park to the heated walks and streets of

A thing which will be of interest to

Of training the young in Christian work,
is the organization Of a number of boys
in a workers training class. These are

and will conduct the class themselves,

II will be splendid scenic production as
Davis q Keogh have supplied "Down In

canvasses, and indeed an entire carload
of scenic paraphernalia is carried.
The title is, in itself, description of the
play. With the very name OF Dixie, one
associates the idea of jolly darkies and
landscapes full Of magnolia and cotton
bloom. This play, which is by Scott
Marble, presents a combination OF those
cheerful features, a melo- dramatic story
of intense interest, and with highly SEN
sationai incidents. The villains OF the
play, Northern swindler and a
Southern overseer, invent numerous occa-
sions of peril for the people on whose side
the sympathies OF the audience lie; and
out of these perils the intended victims
are triumphantly brought, mainly
through the cleverness and bravery OF
the pretty heroine. She rescues first
the handsome Southerner, who later

on makes her his wife, secretly,
against the wishes Of his family; and then
she wins the love and gratitude of that
family, by averting from 1T great mis-
fortune, skilfully planned by the villains.
One of the scenes Of the play shows an
attempt to slay a young naval officer, by
overpowering him, and placing him In a
cotton compress, which is then put in mo-
tion. The attempt is foiled by the ener-
getic action of the heroine.
''Down in Dixie" has for comedy the
unconventional wooiug OF young lovers,
and the droll doings of a host Of darkies,
who are as numerous in the play as on a
real Southern homestead. A pickaninny
band of real darkey boys is conspicuous
feature Of the production. The company
is an uncommonly able one. 1t includes
Scott Marble. who plays a comical old
Southern squire; Mr.. and Mrs. Milton
Barlow, as a jolly old darkey couple
JOSEPH s;aytor, as the manly young hero
of the piece; pretty Marian Ballou, as the
brave little Carolina heroine George
Pauncefort; Mack Charles, J. X. Furlong,
George Cain and Ida Mcmillan. "Down
in Dixie" Is the latest and greatest OF the
Southern plays. The magnificent scenery
by John II. Young OF the Broad way
Theater, New York, Is one OF the many
admirable features Of the production.
