A Welcome Harbinger.
(Kansas City Journal

The early robin gets applause,
We must aver.
The early snowbird ought to cause
A bigger stir.

And glowing rhyme
If he would only come along
About this time.

Animal actors are by no means new
to the stage. There are on record In
stances where four legged performer
has made the greatest success in a
play, drawing hundreds OF people night
after night by the magnetism Of his
inartlculate art. In 1914 "The Dog OF
Montargis' was produced at Covent
Garden theatcr, London. 1t was writ
ten around a true incident In which a
man was murdered In the forest OF
Bondy and the murderer tracked by
means OF his dog. One day this dog
suddenly sprang at the throat OF n
man and almost killed him, whereupon
the wretch terror struck. confessed
that he was the murderer. This dra-
matte incident formed the basis Of the
play, and everything depended upon
the cleverness of the dog He was
called Dragon. and his acting was so
marvellous that the play achieved re-
markablc success, running for thirty
nine performances.
