THE GIRL OF THE SUNNY SOUTH

In the craze for sensationalism. mod
ern dramatic authors proceed to ex-
tremes and produce scenes that are
repulsive to even the most sensational
loving theater goer. This is amply
proven by the fact that plays which
depend entirely upon incidents of this
class are being rapidly withdrawn from
the stage through want Of patronage
In the successful comedy drama, The
Girl Of the Sunny South" morbid SEN
sationalism is happily not in exist
ence. and it's place is taken by a stir

New Haven Stringency.

New Haven. Conn, Nov. 25.-It is an
nounced that the football receipts for
the season for Yale will reach approx
imately $4,000. While this is not a
record breaking amount, 1t is unusually
high.
Yale and Harvard shared equally
$6S,000 after Sundays game, and the
receipts of the ale-Princeton game,
also split evenly between the teams,
amounting to $4,000.
The sums spent in the city by visitos
to the game Saturday and the enormous
amounts won by Yale students on the
game will completely break the money
stringency in New Haven.

There may be still national alienation
and sectarian bitterness. The English
man may still regard the gibbers Of the
Frenchman as q tsign9 of lower develop

his own state. as the centre OF the uni
verse; but there are forces which are
slowly and surely undermining the
alienation of the nations. Commerce
is unifylng;; science is universal; all

by the n1odern means OF intercomrnuni-

and widen thought and dissIpate the
shadows OF superstition. and the bar
rlers between men and man of igno-
rance and hatreds. But, above all
these, and presiding over them like the
princess over her handmaidens, Is the
Christian revelation Of the unity OF
mankind. and OF the oneness Of the
families Of the earth IN Christ Jesus.
That is the thought that Is constantly

THAT IS the spirit which bridges
