Dixey Carries Evening.

The idea Of the complacent husband is
dangerous as a respect destroyer. and.
keeping this fact IN the dramatic back
ground, avoided the prejudice OF the
average audience. 1t is not until we
know the fine courage and boundIess
love for the children which caused Le-
bonnard to be complacent thar we are
prepared to understand his position. The
play develops so that this is clear. Thus
we are ready 20 glow with him in his de-

TALENTED YOUNG LADY
Miss Mertie Hull an Artist of
Rare Ability.

fallon has the honor of being the
home of young lady artist of excep-
tional ability. The young lady in ques-
tion is Miss Mertie Hull, daughter Of
Mrs. Henry Krummes, of the Spoon
Hotel.
Several samples of her work were
brought to the STANDARD Office yester-
day by l.. T.. Donnison, a guest at the
motel, and the talent displayed by one
so young is truly remarkable, she being
hut sixteen years OF age. One of the
sketches looks like Foxy Grandpa, Ia

pers. 1t is said this was drawn by
placing the bullseye of All cd lantern
over the paper, getting focus from the
suns rays and thus burning the sketch
on the paper. All of her work is in
free hand. The young lady should be
encouraged in it, for there is no doubt in
the world that she has the natural abil-
ity to make herself worldwide repu.
tation an an artist.
