London, FEB. l0.-WiilIam Archer. the
dramatic critic and author, has taken IN

theatrical trust, Of rather against what

tired TO see the syndicate subjected to II.
rational abuse which can only exasoerats

Quoting the London Times critic, who
declared that Charles Frohman had re-
dueed the theatrical profession from arr
TO purely business basis, Mr.. Archer
says:
On what other basis has II ever rested
IN America or EngIARdi True there have
been frequent instances in London, and
dare say in America, where theaters have
been endowed ia the interest Of lsdies
whose beauty was. perhaps, more eonspie-
uons than their Talents Even in these
cases / hope profit was some times moi
lacking. Were the American nanagers
IN the Presyndicate days given 10 en-
barking in enterprises for the sake Of m
without any hope Of profit! The insinua-
tion that Mr.. Frohmsn Is degrading art
IL entirely unjust. Mr.. Frohman does not
pander 70 corrupt tastes, and consequently
is not less decent and respectable than
the English stage.
he degrsdes neither more nor less than
Frank Curzon and a dozen other maa.
ayers degrade the English stage. Were
! an American critic 1 should supp5r.
v ARMY all honest endeavors to bresk
down Mr.. Frohman's monopoly and should
demonstrate with him for his

Hon. Cyrus Field Adams was born forty

Henry and Margaret Adams, and early ac
quired the rudiments of an English educa

IN IN building adjoining the. family resi-

give more. than passing notice. .
Rev. Henry Adams was born in Georgia
in 1902 His father, John Adams. was q
native of Ireland; his mother 4 mixed
blood-Spanish, Indian and Negro. When
quite Young he gave very marked promise.
He was converted at the age of ten. began
to preach at sixteen, and was ordained to
the full work Of a minister at the age Of
twenty. He Went to South Carolina and
became the pastor Of a Caucasian church
so far as known the only case in the South
After preaching several years he decided to
come North. He brought with him testi-
monials signed by the members OF. the then
South Carolina Legislature, government Of
ficials and prominent citizens, certifying to
his high Christian character. This was in
1926. He finally settled in Louisville in
1923. where he founded the Fifth Avenue
Baptist church and became the FIRST n Z.
