A VALUABLE LIST.

Realizing that the people OF this re-
gion are awakening to the value of
good drama the Gary public library has
issued list of dramas il has on hand.
The Librarian advises that the drama
instead of the novelized version of the
play be read, because:
First-the drama is better written,
or is better literature.
Second--It has the faculty of easy
reading. as it is all conversation with
the description cut out.
THRIFT is well TO read the play
either before or often seeing it a.
Fourth--If read afterward you will
find so many enjoyable lines that you
missed at the theatre, attention be-
ing taken up with the scenery. etc. If
read before attending the theatre will
be more able to catch the meaning.
