Some old theatrical records un-
earthed in the demolition of theater

Wyndham was receiving $15 week.
Irving only $13, while Miss Terry's
salary ran as high as $25.

ering zeal to keep the coon song, to
which she is so much indebted, from

JUNCTION that she can bestow to make
1t seem worthy of classification with the
rollcking rhythms of other days. The
coon songs of today are like the ghosts
