Mr.. II. w. Holmes, of Poor Val

for the past several months, has
entered Emory Il Henry College

right thing. He is ambitious. He
is unwilling to drag along as a sec.

life. Why don't more of our teach
ers spend at least half of every
year in school as students. But
probably they don't need to. All

was serious trouble and sickness, and
the unfortunate lady died Of blood

played in that city recently:
"But for the announcement that

nlzed their production of "a Hero in

best efforts of the so called standard
companies. The play was adapted
to the talents of the company and
the members of the cast never lost
sight of that fact, for they acted
with unusual vim and rapidly
wheeled the performance to success.

1.-THE WINTERS TALE"

s'The Winters Tale" has been selected
by Manager Rivers as the play in which
the James Kidder- Hanford combination
will be seen at tie Academy of Music on
Friday night, November g. Miss Kidder
will be seen in the dual role of Hermione
and Perdita, and no one should miss the
rendition of these widely divergent char
acters. 1t is one thing to say that Miss
kidder is better in Perdita than in Her
mione, and another thing to say that
you prefer the performance of Perdita.
Everybody will prefer it-even those who
know it is not the best of the two; for
everybody loves the sunshine more than
the shadow. Hermione means grief and
endurance. Perdita means beautiful
youth and happy love. 1t does not take
long for any observer to choose between
them. Suffering is not companionable.
By her impersonation of Her1nione the
actress reveals her knowledge of the
stern truths Of life, its trials, its calami-
ties, and the possible heroism ofhuman
character under its sorrowful discipline
Into this identity she passes by the force
of her ina gination. The embodiment is
majestic, tender, pitiable, transcendant,
but its color is the sombre colef of mel
ancholy and sad experience. Certainly
this performance is the higher and more
significant of the two. But the higher
form of art is not always the most allur-
ing-never the more alluring when youth
full beauty smiles and rosy pleasure beck
ons another way. All hearts respond to
happiness. By her presentment of Per-
dita the actress becomes the glittering
image and absolute incarnation of glori-
Gus youthful womanhood and fascinating
joy. Mr.. James will be seen in a congo
NAL role, that of Autolycus, a rogue, and
Mr.. Hanford will essay the part of Lee
ontes, the jealous King of Sicilia. The
production is on a mammoth scale, and
the company numbers thirty-seven peo-
pie. Reserved seats now on sale at Bob
bitt- Wynne drugstore.
