"The Shepherd of the Hills"

'The Shepherd of the Hills" which
comes to the Evangeline Theatre,
on Sunday, November 18th is a
dramatization Of Harold Bell
Wright's novel, the dramatization
having been made by Mr.. Wright
and Fishery w. Reynolds.
"The Shepherd of the Hills" is an
intensely spellbinding story of love,
mystery and heroic daring; it gets a
grip on life and brings peace to the
soul Of any man or woman who
reads it.
The woods and hills are part of
Gods handiwork. They will give
peace and strength to all who seek
them. From this play you may, in
some measure, feel their influence
and know some of the ways of divine
providence.
You will ask of this story, care
the characters in the play real peo-
pie? Does the old shepherd" live
only in the pages of the book or on
the stage? Is there Sammy Lane"
and a young Matt" You will say
they are all very familiar, and you
seem somehow to have known them a
long time. The scenes may seem new
and yet old. If you go to the Ozark
hills, you will find somewhere a
sheep ranch in "Mutton Hollow" and
dewey Bald" But it is from a
log house above the mists that you
will view these hills and forests and
take of their peace and strength.
That inspiration Of the old "shep-
herd" and his friends will come to
you and follow the old trail that is,
nobody knows how old.
