good opportunity for the advancement
of her art. The play itself is abso-
lutely new and has been pronounced
by critics as one of the best political
dramas that has, been produced in the
last decade
The role of Nurse Apologize brings
all the great personality of Mrs Ad-
anne into play, and she at once wins
her way into the hearts of her audi
ence.
Her devotion to the hero of the play,
first as a baby in the prologue, then 25
years later as a rising young lawyer
running for mayor on the reform tick
ct of Morrisville, N. j., forms a SPLEEN
did background for the love story run
ming through the play, and her sharp
wit and quick repartee relieve the ten
around which the play is written.
Mrs. Adams is well supported by a
good company, among them MILFORD
Lee, who has splendid reputation as
leading man with some of the best
companies, and whose work as DR..
Chitwood in 1.-THE Buffers Secret" is
a wonderfully clever piece of dra-
matte acting. The scenic equipment of
the play is very elaborate The en-
gagement here is for one night only.

the result of it is that when we have

sanctify that which is fully committed
to him, and that God is quick to attend
to his part of the contrac."

eight tons; oats. so bushels. milo maize,
five tons; wheat, so bushels
