AT THE LYRIC.

Not many years ago, actors, actresses
and all those who performed on the
stage for their livelihood were eschewed
by society in general. But with the
fast growing, intelligent growing public,
all this has been changed, until to-day,
the ties which bring us all closer to-
gether and make the whole world kin
are stronger than adamant. 1t is even
more 80 in the relations between the
stage and the people. PlaygoerS realize
that much pleasure and knowledge can
be gained from pure, wholesome dramas.
The drama has advanced considerably
during the last century and this fact has
had much to do with the popularity of
the theatre. But as Hamlet said 'The
play is the thing and he wisely knew
whereof bespoke. The days of unwhole-
some shows are past and any drama to
be successful must be human as well as
interesting. One play which can really
boast of being among the best it's kind
is "The Volunteer Onganist" which is TO
be produced at THE LYRIC Thursday
Feb. 18. 1t is pastoral in atmosphere,
yet it tells q human, engrossing story.
The characters are true TO life and with
every tear there .is laugh. Sunshine ID
blended with gloom and Il teaches .
moral which goes straight TO the heart.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1909-02-17

General mark his daring now with
Grant as he fights it out on this line eff
it takes all SUMNER till the sword OF
Lee is offered him and returned. But,
best of all, Lookout Mountain above the
clouds. We catch glimpse, aye,
prophetic vision OF what it means, yes,
and is to mean, in the history of our be-
loved land for all time to come, as the
gaunt form of the greatest of them all
offers himself sacrifice for his country.
What does it all mean +? We are only
beginning to enter into its fullness of
meaning. We are entering on the
reign of the Common People from whom
Lincoln came; who were so dear to
him from whom, through his words
and life, the chains are being struck. The
common people are at last coming to
their own. 'Tis manhood that is crown
ed in the story of Lincoln! Manhood
Ten thousand thrones and crowns could
add not one additional ray of luster to
that star that shines in the blue of the
national armament. He who stands for
principle; he who believes in eternal
right he whose heart beats true in
patriotic fervor toward all the flag stands
for he who embodies in his life the
square deal, will win the crown and i'm
mortality. Worn by the weight of years
or in the full flush Of life may you go,
but die you cannot. No, mol He lives
and will forever live, wearing the crown
of immortality placed on his brow by
the thoughtful love of grateful people.
No, no "Now he belongs to the Agesl"
At the conclusion Of DR.. Swift's re-
marks the choir of sixty voices rendered
Marching Through Georgia." after
which chairman Homer Greene spoke
in his usual felicitous and impressive
manner, making interesting reference to
to his serial story now running in The
Youths Companion, which is based
largely ION incidents in the life of the
martyred president. His remarks were
enlivened by some pat anecdotes, which
kept his hearers in the best of humor.
Previous to the introduction of Mr..
Seatle as the first speaker of the even
ing Mr.. Greene read large number of
letters and kilograms from distinguished
persons expressing their regrets that
they were unable to be present. The
closing musical number was "America"
in the singing of which the entire audi
ence joined.

Army Shoes.
On a sc

In :'Recollections of Drummer Boy
the author, Mr.. Keiffer, describing va
rious difficulties resulting from i'll fit
ting garments, says:
'"There was a very small man who
had received a very large pair of
shoes and had not been able to effect
an exchange.
Zone day the sergeant was drilling
the company on the facings-right face,
left face. right about face-and of
course watched his mems feet closely
to see that they went through the
movements promptly. Noticing one
pair of feet down the line that never
budged at the command, the sergeant
rushed up to the possessor Of them and
In menacing tones demanded:
"'What do you mean by not facing
about when l tell you? I'll have you
put in the guardhouse.'
why, did, sergeant said the trem-
bling recruit.
"'You did not, sir! Didn't watch
your feet? They never moved an
inch

Morris tribune., 1909-05-29
No Time to Drill In the Sixties.

Old vets cannot march in fine order
like the up to date fellows. At one time
they could, when it was worth while
to expend the effort. Now the tactics
have changed, and if the men of 1861
wish to compete with the boys Of 1909
on parade they have to go to school
and learn it all over again But the
truth is that in the sixties only few
regiments. comparatively, pretended to
make show ON parade. There was no
time to look after the manner Of get
ting at the enemy. 1t was just hus-
tie to get there somehow. An old
trooper Of 1885 was asked what kind
Of flag his corps carried. "Humph! 1
dunno Never saw a flag"
why" said the questioner, didn't
you have a flag on drill and parade?'
Never had time to drill and pa
rade," declared the survivor Of the civil
war.

Wise Words of General Lee.


at is well that the southern people
celebrate the birthday anniversary OF
General Robert e. Lee" said Captain
Frank P. O'Brien.
Apart from his military greatness,
General Lee was, on the side OF char
acter. the finest flower Of American
civilization. Upon his reputation rest
ed not spot.
81 recall now as think of his life a
few thoughts of his that have won
their way into print, and these alone
serve to indicate the fine temper o.
the man:
DUTY is the sublimest word in the
English language
ga gentleman always feels himself
humbled when he cannot help hum
bling others
"'My name cannot be bought. What
influence l have with the southern peo-
pie is not for SALE
General Lee made that reply soon
after the war when in his poverty he
was offered the presidency of a north
ern insurance company.
''There are only two more sentences
| need cite The first of these, We
must all work now was written to his
son, Robert, in 1868 and indicated the
spirit of General Lee in adapting him
