THE NEW HAMLET"
IS WELL RECEIVED

Seldom do amateurs find so good a
vehicle for their talents as "The New.
Hamlet,' burlesque in five acts, by
William Hawley Smith, and seldom are
their efforts attended with the same
measure Of success which the company
OF would-be actors who never saw a
stage as they STYLED themselves, had
"The New Hamlet" at the All Souls
lecture room. It did not take great
deal OF courage, as the young actors
animated on the program would be the
case, to witness the performance, and
the participants were the recipients of
much praise and sincere COMMUNICATION.
The mating of Juliet and Hamlet,
Romeo and Ophelia as engineered by
subject for the greatest laughter. The
slangy wooing Of Romeo was most ef-
fective and the "googoo'' maid an
swered well from her balcony, talk of
nunnery was rife between Hamlet and
his. first love, and the queen, in ex-
planning her second marriage, not only
but showed that it was for Ills sake
alone that she brought his uncle to the
throne. The queens clear sight and
the Lady Montague g love of women s
clubs were all new to the audience and
seemed to be considered as points of
great merit. The neat attacks on the
well-known institutions of today were
lnterWoven with the fabric OF the play
The browning point in the fun of
the evening was reached when, in the
tranquil domestic habitation Of Ham
let, huge baby was seen sitting COM
forrtably, engrossed, after the manner Of
infants, in eating great amount of
paper, despite frequent chokings, in un-
fecting connections between its ever
busy mouth and attractive big toe.
When the six feet Of the baby's pro-
portions were gathered and Topped on
it's fathers shoulder, and it waved
goodbye, enthusiasm knew no bounds,
and the little one had many recalls.

worked and played, fshed and hunted, laughed
and sung. "Stuart's partner, as Bobby was uni

camp, but no amount of petting or coaxIng could
wean him from his love for Billy. He looked up
to Stuart as the best the bravest, the nObiest man
on earth 1t was he who had rescued him from
misery, saved him from slavery
Dutch Pete had traced him to the miners
cabin and had loudly proclaimed his purpose OF
carving him back to Red Hot. But there had
been one brief memorable interview with Stuart,
after which lame and bruised Dutchman had
slowly and painfully limped back over the OPhr
Trail and passed forever from Bobby's ken
So Christmas Eve was come again, and IN the
little cabin smart fire was cracking IN the stove

THE NIGHT BEFOR E
By Clinton SCollard

Bring ivy, we samite-mantled maids,
And clostra1 ivy that retains its glow
Despite the leveled lances of the snow!
And We youths from out the forest shades
The silent heart of ancient oaken glades-
Bear freshly twincd sprays of mistletoe
Beloved in Druid worship long ago.
Whose charm, so lovers witness, never fades.
Gather about the back-1og-a great boe
That on the hearth still keeps its lyric soul,
And breathes, in memory of the Choring thrOng
That once its branches haunted, mellow chords;
And while the winged hours speed morrow-wards,
Marry YOUR voices in sweet Christmas song
