The Democrats next serial story will
be 1.-THE Man from Home,". a novelization
of the very successful play of the same
name, by Booth Harrington and Harry
Leon Wilson. This business of noveliz-
ed dramas it must be admitted is little
overdone, nevertheless this is not very
long and very readable story. 1t par
takes of the fantastic, overdrawn style
of the modern drama-of any drama for
that matter, but especially of the mod
ern drama-and needs to be read with
that fact in view, but is we'll worth
reading, purely as entertainment.
The Pierces Harry Raymond and
Zulette Spencer) gave an entertainment
in New Hall Saturday evening. They
have appeared in South Paris before,

Their programme includes short two
part comedies, readings and character
representations, much of their work
being original. In response to requests,
they repeated some things which they
had given here before, while the rest Of
their programme was new. 1t was q
most delightful entertainment, refined
and artistic, giving pleasing portraysls
of variety of characters, and keeping
the audience always at the highest point
of interest. Mr.. and Mrs. Pierce and
son are guests at DR.. D. NJ. Stewards
while here, Mr.. Pierce and DR.. Stewart
being old college friends.
