deavor to forget how bad was the rest
Of the show.
To begin with, the second act is
better than the first just as every
body knows il would be after they had
seen the first. Also. there is young
woman in the cast named Grace Field.
Try though il did, the play could not
be hopelessly dull while Miss Field
was on the stage In addition to being
the life Of the party generally, she was
the only one Of the feminine contin-
gent who knew anything at all about
the art of wearing clothes. There
was also fat Tom Lewis. who hnally
resorted to his own stuff when " was
apparent how dismally his authors
had failed him. Mr.. Lewis's curtain
speech is undeniably funny Is the
sort Of thing that he has done before
and does exceedingly well.
And there was an acrobatic dancing
pair. Who they were could not De
learned from the programme, but Cos
sin had il that they are cabaret per
formers. At any rate, they were appre
ciated-not only on their own account
hui because they interrupted the book
Also the attractive Audrey Maple was
in the company. but she had joined u
at so late a date that there was no tlme
to write a good part for her. MISS
Maple completes the roll of honor. al,
though perhaps il should be mentioned
that there was a good looking girl IN
the chorus.
Really II is time for somebody to
speak TO the libretto writing smith
brothers. DR.. Osler would be an ideal
person. The book Of "Molly o." is
written on the customary assumption
that those In the audience have never
before been in a theatre and have never
read newspaper or a magazine. Az
that. the Smiths might have been. eX-
cused if they had had sense enough TO
steal good Jokes instead Of bad ones.
In "Mollv o." they have at least tied
the worlds record for sheer stupidity:
Possibly Carl Woess's music would
have sounded better if IL could have
been heard independently of the Smith
mart of the show. The melodies, while
they fell pleasantly enough upon the
ear. were utterly lacking in variety and
originality. and after 9:l7 everything
sounded alike.
Katherine Galloway, in the title role
was so badly miscast that IL was next
20 impossible 20 form a judgment OF
her abilities. Albert Parr was dash
ing hero. and the dash stands for any
thing you want il TO. Mr.. Parr had
but a day or two in which TO rehearse,
SO perhaps one should make excuses
for him. Suffice il TO say that he gave
one of the worst performances ever
seen in theatre.
Certain incidents in the second act
uade IL seem not improbable that
"Molly o." is "The Masked Model" a
show which was wrecked in Baltimore
a few months ago. You never can tell.

Sunday School Notes
N. 4. CHURCH.

Ninety.nine at Sunday school
last Sunday, which was excellent
considering the weather.
One little girl was &c enthusi-
astic about coming to Sunday
school that she came without
anything on her head to protect
II from the cold. because she did
not have time to find IL. If
older people were half as enthu.
siastic all the churches would be
filled every Sunday.
One class in the school has de-
cided to look after the destitute
families ia town. This is a
worthy cause, and they should
have the hearty cooperation of
everyone.
Three teachers were absent
Sunday. Unless you are sick
you surely can come If the little
tots can. It is quite a tempta-
tion to stay at home by a warm
fire such Sundays as last, but re.
member no one can fill your
place.
The Sunday school is the
greatest factor for good in your
community. You cannot be an
officer, teacher or pupil without
being a better person. .
The annual conference will be
held at Independence the first of
March. Those in arrears with
their subscription to the church
will confer a favor on the stew
ards by dropping the amount in
the basket next Sunday.
If the weather continues cold
for next Sunday, fires will be
started in the church Saturday
evening, and then the rooms will
be warm Sunday morning.
The old board of trustees was
approved by the last quarterly
conference, and R. M. Gilman is
lay delegate to the annual con-
ference and Chas. Polster alter
nate.

The refreshment committee
