A Nd then almost before he knew it. he drafted out
the floor plan of Suse's Stepuncle, which,

Modest! Why, compared to others I've met. you We

He didn't give any at ALL just sent 1t back,
says Hiram. Il tried an actor next, one OF the
best in the business. that l knew could do the
leading part it should be done. He wrote
back very encouragingy, even suggesting few

for the support of hamlet. Towns
of Importance exist only where there
are certain natural advantages, re-
