showed the members of the company
to be contentious workers, realizing
the possibilities of the numerous
characters. Campbell Stratton. n

of Dick Charlcton. a young miner and
proved to he the star of the play. as

be an artist in their line of work. and
this. together with appropriate scene
ry. makes production hard to beat
at the popular prices of 10. 20 and 30.
Should the entire repertoire of the
company equal the standard of the
plays presented here. they deserve the
