Real Dramatic Treat

FL Pasoans have a treat in store for them next
Monday and Tuesday in the visit here OF Sir Johnston
Forbes Robertson the eminent English actor and scholar
This is the farewell tour of the noted Enghshman
and If his managers are to be believed, 1t is real
farewell He made farewell tour Of part OF America
few years ago and his managers cite the tact that
he Is not playing this year IN any CT the cites Where
he appeared then, New York included,
most flattering offers from the metropolis It is a
genuine farewell Of Forbes Robertson they announce
and inducements viii get him to play this year where
he has appeared before a farewell tour" He has
already made his farewell IN England and asserts that
he is to retire unless he decides later TO tour Australia
The retirement Of such finished actor and scholar
yet apparently in the prime of life, IS to be regretted
for FOrbeRobeson has done much for the stage during
his career He has not played for popular public ap
proval and money much to develop the artistic
side of the stage and it is only in recent years that
he has laid aside sufficient money to enable him to
retire Independently Strangely 1t may SEEM this
Shaksperean scholars fortune has been made from
modern play, "The Passing of the Third Floor Back"
However, Sir Johnston viii be remembered mostly for
his mastery interpretations Of Shakspere, and those
who have him in his "Hamlet"-Bernard Shaw is
Of these-ass that he is the greatest Of his time
Mr.. Shaw says he makes Of his Hamlet a real human
4 whom his audience understand.
Sir Johnston gives his version Of the play which
Is said to be different from that of most other Sha
sperean scholars He is of these actors, who while
believing that the setting should be appropriate and
correct should not be such to deract from the play
itself-that the play should first; other things
should be subordinated.
FL Paso is fortunate In being included on the fare
well tour of the eminent actor treat IS in store Mon
day night when he will play @Hamlet" and Tuesday
night and matinee when The Passing of the Third Floor
Back" VIII be the offering.
One difference between the American soldier and
the Mexican is, the former IS honored by firing squad
after his death, the latter Immediately before

Getting Business Men Together

The Herald is pleased to note the number of bust

Men in their offices and stores generally too

they wish and should. The dinner or luncheon table
affords them a chance to meet when they have tenn

in many ways. Each person benefits mentally by the
temporary rest from business and there Is further

THE turkey is the national bird Of
thankfulness- he reigns not upon
our coins or in our poetry, but
upon our bills Of fares and in our

The turkey is a large bird with pom

He does not fly. he struts about the
chicken yard and eonverses in a loud
hobble-gob5le which might easily be
mistaken for a political speech by a
contended conservative candidate The

Let's Have the Christmas Tree

That big Christmas tree idea advanced by Geo. H.
Clements, publicity commissioner Of the chamber of
commerce is good and should be carried out.
The erection of a mammoth green pine tree in some
open space, ablaze with electric lights during the
Christmas holidays would prove unique feature and
would be novel and interesting The singing of Christ
carols under its spreading boughs would heighten
the attractiveness of the feature Christmas
Such a tree would stimulate interest in Christmas
old and young; it would comment from visitors
and it would show that in the midst OF the material
things of Efe-during the busy holiday business-we
have time for the sentimental things.
1t is a good suggestion and that should not be
permitted to go without being put into execution.
If Pioneer plaza is not suited the location then
Cleveland square would do, although not centrally
located the plaza.

W 0OtIS COuTkSStCo
Shakespeare has put it In a
nutshell, as it were, our ideal
of the frame of mind of a

There is no position in a
store so small but what the
holder of it has an important
place in helping to build up
its reputation for courtesy.
On the other hand, the at
mosphere of courtesy and
kindness that prevades a
store is nothing more or less
than a reflection by its en-
ployees, of the ideals and
personality of the men ut
the head of its organization.
