There has been n suggestion made
by some musician in this city which VIII
bring pleasure TO some OF the soldiers and
sailors here on leave and which Mrs.
William N. Barnard has asked to be
presented TO the n nsic loving public
readers. There are many OF the orchestra
subscribers planning to be out Of the city
during the Lenten season, whose tickets
will not be used. Mrs. Barnard asks
that subscribers who do not expect to
use their tickets communicate with her
in order that some of the soldiers and
sailors may avail themselves of the op-
portunity to hear good concert without
cost 10 them.
The plan seems very simple and is
Just one of the many things that can
be done to brighten some army boys"
life Mrs. Barnard will be glad to hear
from any subscriber who will not be III

What Is il that viii Shakespeare says

When beauty pleadcth all orators are

at The Playhouse last night. It's girl
show from start to finish and good one,
but that doesn't let Harry Fox out, by
any means. His comedy made hit from
the time he first made his appearance on
the stage until the final curtain came
down.
There isn't lot Of plot 60 "Oh Look. :
