South Early in June Lee started his
army northward \ few days later Hook

for the protection of Washington and Bal

army crossed Into Pennsylvania from the
Shenandoah Valley in the middle Of June
The people Of that state. as they saw
the fruits of their labors in cattle and
crops carried off, became alarmed. and
volunteers were called for 10 repel inva-

Lees troops were in Pennsylvania, with

and the Federal army was north of the

Ned Wayburn, Producer.

That there is a vast difference between
theatrical stage producer and stage
manager, little understood by the average
theatergoer, is explained by a character
istic letter received by the advance bust
ness manager of Peggy last week. The
letter in question read, in part, as fol-
lows:
Il wish you would be kind enough to
see that instead of being mentioned In
your press notices as a veteran stage
manager las the house press agent has
done), that l am merely mentioned, II at
all, as Ned Wayburn, the producer" as
that IS a trademark 1 have worked hard
to obtain. You yourself. as a former
manager of many attractions, know that
the difference between producer and
| stage manager is the difference be-
tween receiving $500 per week and $50.
" Veteran implies rheumatic old guy,
shriveled with Chorus -eetis, and ema-
ciated with principal" who wears
white-tired whiskers and walks with
hurty feet and an ingrown stomach"
1t is needless to say that in future ref
erences to the executive stan of Peggy

Wayburn will be given due credit as the
