still hold it. curiously enough.
The point Is that oscar Hammerstein Is going TO
build another theatre and that Is what the Amer

things pertaining thereto. wants TO hear about SO
why delay the real story?
The new theatre is to be music hall and 1t Is to

reasons for calling II the Victoria: First. every
thing that can be done to promote the alliance OF
the greatest two nations Of the earth ought to be

point is necessary. OF course there might be
room for Of your cheap wit just here. but
that is what Mr.. Hammerstein is going TO do, and

so at their extravaganza that they gave up In dis
gust In the closing years OF his passionate not only
the rcctory but the church steadily retrograded
until the members sought other parishes. Those re-
naming pctiiicned the Archbishop 70 remove Father
Albnger and appoint younger and more energetic
pastor.
Some OF them even suggested that Father Al
hingcr's innrmities affected his mind rs much as
his body. The Rev NJ J Reinhart was finally np-
pointed IN his place. and Father Albneer went back
