The Clay City times. [volume] (Clay City, Ky.) 1901-current, 1914-06-04

The people of Spout Spring are
getting a little restless about
their bridge at the mouth of Lul-
begrud creek, between the cOun-
ties of Clark and Estill. Thew
have raised to date on their bridge
and road to Spout Spring little
more than S1,700. The only de-
lay now is in the Clark county
authorities. The matter was
brought up too late to give it
consideration at the April term
of the Fiscal Court, thus it will
be delayed until after the Octo-
her meeting of this Court, unless
the Judge of that county deems
it of sufficient Importance to call
a meeting of the Fiscal Court,
which we are sure he would do
if he knew the Importance of
prompt action. The bridge is
needed most in the winter time,
and delay until after October
means that the bridge will not
he built ~ time for use next
winter.
Another very important reason
why the bridge should be built at
once is that the persons subscrib-
ing the money for Estill's use in
this matter did so expecting to
get the bridge by winter time
and a delay of twelve months
necessarily means the loss of
more or less of the subscription
money made up as none of the
money subscribed is to be paid
until the bridge is completed.
We do hope that Clark coun-
ty's splendid Judge will see what
great benefit it will he TO the
people of Spout Spring and Estill
county to take immediate action
and call a meeting of the Fiscal
Court, if he deems this necessary,
and help get the matter on foot
and the bridge up for next win
ter's use. If he can see his way
clear to do this, we are sure he
will in this way oblige hundreds
of people who SO badly need this
bridge.

there must be monetary loss to
those who have grown fat from
the bare living of the poor. In
this loss the poor families will
gain living and peaceful and
happy homes instead. Isn't this
more important? The gain of the
poor in this will overbalance the
loss of the whiskey rich ten fold.
Let the traffic stop instantly

it should fall. The losers will
then be getting only a small taste
of their own medicine. Though
none of them will stare at the
poverty that millions of Others
have had to do that they might

LITTLE COUNTRY THEATER
FOR RURAL SCHOOLS.
Plan to Stimulate Interest n Whole-
some Drama and Entertainments.

A suggestion whereby the country
schoolhouses of the United States may
make themselves attractive as centers
of vigorous community life in a novel
way is contained in a bulletin issued
by the bureau OF education Of the de-
partment OF the interior at washing
ton descriptive Of a Little Country
Theater established by the North Da-
kota Agricultural college at Fargo.
n, d. Primarily the aim In establish
ing the little theater was to stimulate
an interest in wholesome drama and
original entertainment among people
living in the open country and villages.
The Little Country theater is large
playhouse put under a reducing glass.
It is Just the size of an average coun-
try town hall, having seating capaci-
ty of 200. The stage is thirty feet In
width, twenty feet in depth. with a
proscenium opening ten feet in height
and fifteen feet in width There are
no boxes nor balconies.
In the auditorium proper the deco
rations are plain and simple. The col
or scheme is green and gold. the gold
predominating. Three beams finished
in golden oak cross the mansard cell
ing, the beams projecting down sew
eral feet on each side wall. from
which frosted light bowls and globes
are suspended by brass log chains.
the indirect lighting giving soft and
subdued tone to the whole theater.
The eight large windows are hung
with tasty green draperies. The cur
tain is tree shade green velours. The
birch stained seats are broad and not
crowded together The scenery is
painted in plain colors. 1t has GER
tain realism about it. The doors are
wooden doors. the windows have real
glass in them. Simplicity marks et-
,erything, both on and of the stage. 1t
is n model theater for the open country
or small village.
The object Of the Little Country the
alter is TO produce such plays as can
be easily staged in country school,
the basement of a country church. in
the sitting room Of farm home, in
the village hall or any place where
country people assemble for recrea-
ton. It will test the different forms
of entertainment by giving all eligible
students an opportunity to appear in
at least one play year. If the play
proves satisfactory people residing in
the rural districts win be informed of
the fact BY this method the Little
Country theater is expected to become
a vital force in sociaiizing the country
in North Dakota.
