At the Opera House tonight will &C.
cur the first presentation in this city
of the new musical comedy, 'Papa's

melody has proven to be one of the big
farcical successes of the seanson, and
the presentation here will be awaited

strongest ever put together for pro-
duction of this character, both in act
ing ability and musical talent. Wat

Hon John Grigsby.
On the opening night of Frank Keen
ans season in Hon. John Grigsby a
certain curiosity was felt by his many
admirers as to what class Of theater-
goers this piece would most attract.
The question was soon settled when it
was found that the most critical as we'll
as the gallery boy, were equally inter
ested and thrilled and that the whole
house rose to Mr. Keenan, at the end of
the second act, and demanded a speech.
The play is of that rare kind which is
universal in it's appeal. It's beautiful
love story, the striking comedy Incl
dents, the powerful climaxes enchant
amuse and thrill all alike. Opera

The Message of Christ

TO the world and consequently the mes
sage of the church which is Christ's
representative in personal contact.
Many of you have read the thrilling
story of the Rev. Mr.. McNutt, in one
of the Western States. Some years ago
he resigned the pastorate of a large
Presbyterian church in Indianapolis,
to live among the working people,
dwelling in the gas belt of Indiana.
He put on the workingman's garb,
sought employment in the factory and
gave himself to studying the needs of
the working class. Little did his fell
low workmen think that he was a brill
liant orator, a fine linguist, superb
preacher in disguise. He says there
are three persons who took him for
willingly shared the deprivation with
him; his boy, and pa" his dog. This
man thrilled the Christian people at
many chautauqua assemblies in New
England during the summer, and while
he is stirring the people or the church
es he is changing the minds of thous-
ands of workmen about
The Church and Christ
and Christian living.
