time. in realistic production such as
The Dawn OF Tomorrow the kernel
OF good Is driven home In a way that
no sermon could emphasize.
By no means, however, is the play

care of that. She showed full well last
night that she Is an actress who does

Wooden Shoes in New York.

A Watertown shoe merchant prophe-
sizes that wooden shoes will be worn by
the laboring classes before many years.
He bases his opinion on the decreasing
amount of shoe leather and the increas-
ing demand for shoes. Going barefooted
in the summertime is all right. but one
needs some foot covering in a northern
New York winter. Wooden shoes ought
to last a long while. and II Watertown
people will set the fashion others may
adopt the style.-Utica Press.
