A Wonderful PLAY.

That such a fine dramatic work
should come from the pen of n OF
our race is encouraging. No one who
bought tickets and went to the church
expected to see and hear anything
but a long drawn out play. But by
the time the first act vas over, those
who came to scott, remained to con
graduate Mr.. Drury for having writ
ten a play so full of dramatic points.
Mr.. Drury has genius for play writ
ing and we hope that u people will

us by the whites, but let us show our
appreciation of this great artist before

Don't turn to your brother a frown on your face,
But meet his demands with a hearty good grace,
We're oftimes wrong when we thing we are right
There's a shadow that marks every atom of light,
Take failure with calmness-a lesson is learned;
It's a lotion to those disappointment has burned,
Remember this adage and hold it a cineh-
A smile is a mile where a scowl is an inch.
Don't move from the path to give way to Despair,
For he is a brother to Worry and Care,
Just laugh him to death by the strength of your will,
And kick his black corpse from the top of the hill;
Then turn to meet Sorrow and give her your hand,
And show her the fruits of Co~ntentments broad land,
Reserve your best chuckles to deal in a clinch-
A smile is a mile where a scowl is an inch.
