Maude Adams great roles is being mod
eled by Sir George Frampton, r A. It
depicts Peter sitting on the stump of
a tree with the elves emerging from
about the roots. The suggestion for the

which have been put forward as seulp-
tors who would be likely to catch the

press the idea which has made Barrie's
and Maude Adams creation the latter
day saint and patron of childhood.
