IMPORTANT MEETING
w. u. .IIethcrington Attended One on
Tuesday-Better shows VIII Be
the Result of the Meeting.

w. p. Hetherington, manager OF
the Bedng Opera House left Tues
day for Saginaw, where he went to
attend a meeting of all of the theat-
trical managers of the state with a
view of organizing into body for the
protection of both managers and the
theatre-going public.
Under prefent conditions a show
company strikes the state and makes
tour of the same and perhaps has a
show 20 rotten that it has no right TO
the patronage of lovers of the dra.
matte art and the company goes
| through the state hoodooing the peo-
pie without anything to stop them.
It is the intention of the company
assembled at Saginaw to guard
against such conditions and in the fu-
ture 10 present to theatre-going peo-
pie only frst-class companies and
what may be termed guaranteed
attractions.
This Is move in the right direc-
tiou and the b Binner can but express
the hope thlt his meeting may be
productive of the very best results
and in future guarantee to the pa
irons of Belongs pretty play house,
attractions possessed of sufficient
merit TO win the appreciation of the
many managers who haye in way
as sumed the responsibility of enter
tanning the play-loving people of
Belding and the entire state.
While Manager Hetherington has
been very fortunate in his book
ings in this city in the past, there
have been few companies that he
will strive in future 10 keep from his
bookings. 1t is his avowed in'ention
10 give to the patrons OF his theatre
only guaranteed attractions and he
has been very successfulin the past,
only very few poor shows baring
deluded The citizens Of leldug Since
he became manager of the opera
house in this city.
Another object Of the organization
l. 10 keep in tonch with the New York
booking agencies so that the manag-
ers of this section OF the country may
secure only lrst class entertainments
The organization will be known as
the Mich gan Opera House Managers
Association and the next meeting will
be held in this city In the near future

ADJUSTMENTS.

One of the funniest companies on
the road of today, "The Real Widow
Brown" played by a company of un-
usual merit, will be seen at the Beld-
ing Opera House, Tuesday evening,
Dec. g. The plot rests upon the idea
of substituting young man disguised
as a widow for the genuine, who was
to Gil the position of governess to two
charming girls. The complications
arising from such a ludicrous imper
sonation are two funny and can only
be greeted with peals of laughter.
The'music is sparkling and up to-date.
A comedy full of complicated situa-
tions, portrayed by company of
jolly comedians and clever and pretty
girls has caused the "The Real Widow
Brown" to spring into instantaneous
success. The Manistee Daily News
in speaking of the play says
"The Real Widow Brown which
was produced at Ramsdell theatre
last evening Is to be played again to-
night and a crowded house may rea-
sonably be expected. Judging from
the amount of laughter and applause
which greeted the efforts of the play
ers last evening the second produc-
tion will get plenty of advertising
from those who saw it Saturday.
The Muskegon Daily Chronicle
says: The Real Widow Brown"
drove dull care away at the Grand
last evening. A large audience
screamed with laughter through
three acts of farce comedy of the
farcical sort. There is plenty of hu-
NOR in the piece to begin with, and
with the present company it is
brought out to the utmost. Willie
Dunlap was responsible for more
laughs than any one else in the
piece. His representations OF the
Widow Brown we're ludicrous in the
extreme and he had only to come on
the stage to start laugh
You can get your money back al
the end of the first act If you are not
satisfied

COUNTRY LIFE AN IDEAL ONE.

Young men make mistake In leav-
ing the farms to seek livelihood in
the cities. City life, with it's various
dlsslpations, to which young men are
particularly susceptible, is not calcu
lated 10 bring either wealth or fame,
unless, perchance, the incomer be
genius. Thousands of young men leave
the farms because farming is exacting,
and in time fud that the earning of
a livelihood in the over-erowdsd cities
10 much more exacting.
There is q certain sense of independ-
ence about life on farm that must be
abandoned in the cities.
Here 1t is toll from week end to
week end, and often even on Sunday,
to earn a Lying. The task masters are
exacting, and if an employe measures
not up to their standard he is thrown
out to seek employment elsewhere or
starve. There is no leisure in the
city. No matter what young mans
vocation, If he ever expec to succeed
be must work
OF course, he must work on the
farm, but he does not have to devote
all of his time to it. There is leasure
for study, for cultiyating the mind
and body which does not come to the
busy city dweller except intermittent
lily. The city has its bright side II
fascinates, but like the sputterlng cleo
trio light which attracts the insec', it
fascinates only to destroy
The wise young man will remain or
the farm. There Is life, and plenty,
for him if he will but take advantage
of his opportunities. It is bstter thar
perishing by inches in the cities.

LABOR BRINGS a SURE REWARD

Success in life depends almost en-
tirely on interchangeable and systematic
fame by sitting down and awaiting for
1t to come Constant and systematic
attention to business usually brings
success A certain advertising agency
has the motto ''Keep1ng everlasting at
it brings success. This is terse and
truthful. Hark work is good for man,
especially young man. Progress is
impossible without ndustry. Practical
industry will bring out mans indiv1-
dual character and at the same time
stimulate others. A lazy man or an
idle man is pretty sure 10 become an
unhealthy man Regular employ ment
is necessary for q mans mental and
physical health. IF man labors
cheeriy with faith in the outcome he
will be happy and probably healthy.
Sometimes industrious, ambitious
men worry over the result of labors,
They are afraid their labor will not be
properly rewarded or appreciated Tn1s
is because of lack of faith. Oliver
Cromwell said "Have faith in God and
keep your powder dry" The man
who trusts IN God and at the same
time does his part is not apt TO kill
himself by worring over results Con-
slant labor with fal in results makes
a successful life.
