from the labors Of school the play
selected for the child is intended to
relieve as much as possible any
mental strain. This amiable intention
Is well accomplished by Watch Your

and by other musical plays not alto
gether spoiled by their vulgarity. But
there seems no good reason why the
poetry and beauty Of other plays
might not some time be acted for
them. or why the romance and thrill
Of the romantic drama might not oc-
