SUNDAY NIGHT.

American plays by American auth
ors should ever be interesting events
in community where Americanism
is dominant characteristic. In pre-
senting the Flaming Arrow" by Lin
coin J. Carter, the American author,
next Sunday night, theatre goers will
have chance to see an art crea-
ton worthy of the sort. The charac-
tiers are fifty and ably taken by peo-
pie who know their business, some of
the cleverest actors before the foot
lights being included in the cast.
The play is one that will live as
long as the American drama is in
existence. It tells in the best style
and in the most interesting manner
the life of the Indian and the inhabi-
tants Of the western border The
comedy is unique and original; the
climaxes intensely dramatic and CON
sistently wrought up and the love
scenes sweet and romantic. 1t Ii es-
sentially the great story of the play
that has made it such long life and
1t will be difficult matter on some
other authors part to produce q
drama as good as this play.

THE VALUE OF THE NEWSPAPER,

THE VALUE OF THE NEWSPAPER.
The late Senator David Davis of
Illinois is credited with the following
expression of newspaper worth: "Ev-
cry local newspaper each year gives
from $500 to $4,000 in free lines for
the benefit of the community in which
it is located. No other agency can
or will do this. The editor in proper
ton to his means does more for his
town than any other man, and with
firmness, man with man, not because
you happen to like him or admire his
writing, but because a local paper is
the best investment community can
have. Today the local papers do more
work for less pay than any man on
earth. Patronize your local paper not
as charity but as duty" a
