"Thc Country Squire" Coming.

In speaking of the production of
"The Country Squire" which comes
to the auditorium on next Tuesday
evening, March 3rd, the Seattle Daily
Times has the following:
High class acting; blending of
healthy humor and pathos so natural
and free from maudlin sentiment as
to cut deep; plain. everyday New
England scenes familiar to hundreds
on hundreds of Seattle people and
tender delineation of life in Vermont
a quarter of a century ago, make
"The Country Squire" by far and
away the best play that has been seen
at the Seattle theatre this season.
lice Willard, former Seattle boy
and erstwhle student at the Univer-
sity of Washington, plays the star
part, that of jeremiah Bassett, 1.-THE
squar, and the scores of his friends
who went to the Seattle to see him on
his third annual tour were agreeably
surprised, not only at his splendid in
depreciation of the character of an old
Vermont farmer, but the excellent
backing he has been able to secure in
his actor managerial capacity.
The Country Squire is as simple,
and clean, and as full of heart inter-
est. as The Old Homestead. 1t is
comedy and the story around the play
scarcely has any plot. 1t is just every
day life among simple folk who place
he little affairs of their community
far above the affairs of the nation so
far as interest in concerned. And
seeing the play one does not wonder
that this is so if it develops big. gen.

Instead of coming to school they
take their guns and go hunting

his power to stop it, but has not

termlned to cut off two per cent
from the grade of every scholar
who absents himself from school
on Friday afternoons without a
good and sufficient cause, and if a
boy is absent five times he will not
be allowed to pass unless his
teacher recommends it.
There will be a meeting of the
school trustees shortly when the
subject of appointing a"truant"of-

will be discussed. There are
many children 10Y out of school
that should be in attendance ev-

at ono send them to school the
trustees will be compelled to force
their attendance by every means
in their power.
