AND EXTRACTS FROM HIS
SPEECH SUPPORTING SAME,
DELIVERED BEFORE THAT
BODY.
Believing that the cooper
alton Of our government with
the American farmer, through
the Department Of Agriculture,
has demonstrated the wisdom
of this method Of cooperation
with the American people in

thoroughly important is tie in
dustry Of agriculture in this
country and how it has been

this country have been well ex-
pended and no member of this

man who is interested in the
metallurgical development OF
this country, 0nvies or in any
way deprecates the speeding

ANNIE RUSSELL AS "PUCK."-Annie
Russell, who has always been associated
in the minds of theatergoers in roles when
she played sweet girlish parts-a style so
firmly perpetuated to her that they have
been termed Annie Russell roles" as
generic name-has broken away from these
this season and gone to the opposite ex-
IRENE. This has been made possible by her
assumption of the character of Puck, In
her present starring vehicle. "A Midsum-
,mer Nights. Dream" Nothing of the in
genue, the sweet. confiding slip of girl
"the darling'-remains. 1t is a new, an
artistic Annie Russell, clothed in gro
tesdue boyish costume, and with her sweet
and wfnsome face made UP in the most lu-
dicrous manner, lined in such deep burrows
that the illusion of the imp incarnate Is
complete. 1t was great departure for
Annie Russell, and her many friends and
admirers will be greatly interested in seeing
the transformation that has been the re-
suit.
