of his early efforts.
Lawrence Barrett had engaged me to
play another one Of his friends, in
Francesca da Rimini I was engaged TO
play at SIS a week and provide my own
costumes. That seemed easy enough, but
after We had been out six weeks Mr.. Bar
rett began putting on the other plays Of

parts in each, and that meant as many
changes of costume. / bought what l
could and borrowed the others. II was
about this time that he played Julius
Caesar I appeared i'm four roles and got
on very well by borrowing, till the last
act. Then all the other members were on
the stage and needed their costumes as
Roman soldiers. 7 did the best 1 could. /

old white tunic that Otis Skinner had out

head shorter than / am. ] knew I was
not looking my best in them, for [ was

pounds. But I was not prepared for what
Mr. Barrett said to me.
when the curtain fell he beckoned to
me. I approached. What do you think
you are impersonating?' he asked.

cheaper lumber entertained in some
quarters, the National Forest Conser-
walton league has this to say:
While the duty on rough lumber is
reduced from s. to 81. the duty on I'm
ished lumber in all forms is left so high
as TO remain prohibitive. Rough lum-
Der. owing to transportation charges.
cannot be imported into the United
States except where water transporta-
ton is available. Consequently the re-
duction on rough lumber is of no benefit
whatever to the farmers and other con-
sumers in the great interior country.
Finished lumber can be imported.
because Of the saving in railway rates
as compared with rough lumber, if the
tariff permit it, but as proposed it does
not permit il. About 80 per cent Of the
lumber shipped from a mill by rail goes
through the planning mill before it is
put on the cars. About the same per-
centage Os the lumber sold at a retail
lumber yard is planed or finished in
some measure. That is TO say. the ordi-
nary consumer OF lumber buys finished
lumber almost entirely. And the lum-
Der schedule as drafted makes it impos-
sible for him to get this lumber from
abroad. Therefore, he viii be entirely
dependent on domestic supplies as be
fore.
This is the kind of revis- --- TIA. nay
fool, but will not benefit. Every con-
gresham who wants to help his con-
stituents to get cheaper lumber should
insist on free lumber. both rough and
finished. Failing in that, he should in
sist that finished lumber, which is what
