THE Time HAS COME

For the little green sprigs of
grass to peep out from under their
winter cover and breathe the re-
freshing odor of SpriHgtime.
So with man. 1t is time for him
to prepare to shift his heavy winter
garments and take on lighter
weights.
These are times not Of the black
yalise, hickory stick and red ban
dana, but times in which each man
must necessarily be particular about
his clothes.
We don't condemn the $1,000
suit for fifteen years ago the bulk
of the clothing worn was from
$1,000 to $500.

The Shirley Co. has prepared a

be the bill for next week commenc-

of thrilling situations, strong CON-

splendid character delineations.
The story centers around boys.

young fellow and the other an I'M
demanded sneak who Is the ia
vorite Of his blind mother. To save
the younger brother the elder takes
the blame for the theft of $1,000

The younger son has become in
volved with a young gypsy girl and
the brother of the gypsy seeks to
avenge his sister. Through an er-
ror the brother Is lead to believe
that the older brother is the Of
fender and shoots and wounds him.
1t Is then that the truth comes out
and a happy ending Is brought
about.
There is a pretty love story in
the play in which Dave Foster and
Dora Appleton are the principals.
The young girl retains her belief In
her sweetheart in spite of the cloud
which hangs over him, and it Is
through her that he Is ultimately
brought into his own.
The comedy in the piece Is a
strong feature and is brought in to
relieve the strain of the dramatic
