Sing no for the winter with ice and
with snow!
Sing he for the evergreen holly!
Sing no for the maidens with cheek all

The fairest of all is my Molly!
Each night we drive out in a cutter

The moon Ger the snow seems to blind
To all Of the world, till it sudden oc-

The shimmers Of moon over stretches
Of snow,
The crunch Of the crust as we're speed
ing,
Seems to chord with your heart till
the first thing you know
The cause Of a lover you're pleading.
I know that with Molly and me that's
the way,
Since Cupid to love first inclined us,
But there's always rope to the back
Of our sleigh
And a small boy is coasting behind u.s.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-02-28

I worship my Molly, I feel she loves
me-
And long I have vainly been praying
That those little scamps would for
once let me be
While cut In the moonlight we're
sleighing.
If fate would be kind in my manifold
wees,
We'd plight all the troths that would
bind US;
But, goodness! I never can get to
propose,
With small boy a-coasting behind

general way, the frequently heard dec
laration of old actors that schools of
acting are quite useless for the devel-
opment Of embryo talent for the stage.
The article was signed professional, b"
and II set forth at very considerable
length the stereotyped views of pro-
fessionals upon this topic.
First, the stage itself is the only
school of acting which is worth a but
ton; and,
Second, that these outside schools
flood the stage with inexperienced peo-
pie, who crowd out real actors and
lower the artistic tone of the theater
There is a good deal that is true in
this view. and good deal that is not.
Actual stage experience in repertoire
companies is the most valuable kind of
training for a young man or woman of
ambition and talent. But how many
such young people can you find adopt
ing stage life who are willing to put in
a year or two in the remote surround
ings of the repertoire circuits, submit
ting to the discomfort Of queer hotels
early and late rehearsals, midnight
studies of part after part, and all the
rest of it that forms a repertoire ac-
tors life?
People of refined taste and good
