Mamma got pint bottle of milk
morning and evening for Baby Paul.
She sent Patty out on the porch to
get it one evening and Patty report
ed that the clean bottle and ticket
were gone and there was no milk out
there. 81
Mamma felt sure that the milk man
would not take the ticket without
leaving the milk but she went out
and looked and could find nothing.
Norah said she heard the milk
man on the back porch but she had
been so busy that she hadn't brought
it in just then.
In the meantime Baby Paul got
hungry and Mamma had to give him
some of the milk the rest Of the fam
lily used and she didn't like it bit.
Neither did Paul and he fretted all the
while he took 1t,
When he was ready for bed Mamma
sent Peter in after his nightte and
told him to turn down the covers on
Paul's bed.
Peter did and came back looking
rather scared.
Mamma, there is something funny
in the Baby's bed. Come and sect"
So Mamma went in the nursery and
turned on the light and there in
Paul's bed was the missing bottle of
milk!
Hes gettin' awful bad to take
things" said Peter. shaking his head,

with child, Mammal" q

11NHERE are some places and things which mean just one thing to
 me and Johnstown, Pennsyi- vania is one of them; the only thing that ever comes to my mind in think ing or speaking of this place is "the Johnstown Flood"
 | But-that was before I met Mir. Byron Dean Bailey the nice young man from that city who has come to Birming- ham as manager at Loew's Bijou theatre.
 As said once about "Harpers Ferry ! I thought of it as General Horace Por- 1 ter thought of Boston; it is not a city | Rut state of mind" but that was also before l met nice young man who lives there; and it's exactly the way l I've always thought about Johnstown, Pennsylvania: only in this case I thought it was a state of water" in stead of mind; just bushels and gallons end quarts and pecks of water and we'll you know how you get ideas sort of tucked away back in your silly little head and, any way as I was about to say, until met Mir Bailey l was very "one-idea-ed" about this particular place.
 Now-l am truly enlightened because heard lot of things about Johns- town that l didn't know before one of which is that the big thriving. daily ne wspaper there with which MT. Bailey Vas connected for many yeSfs and from which he derived his experiences which brought him into direct contact with the theatrical world was really the the beginning of the making of this ! clever young mans future
 
 1 few days ago in my rounds" I found whole bunch of "Loew Managers" as- semoled and I wondered if there was circuit meeting" going on or what had happened; l pretty soon found out TOT MT. Lionel H. Keene, MT. Schillers assistant in the southern circuit and Mr. E. M. Stainback, manager of Loew's Memphis play house. and MT. Charles D Sexton, the popular assistant man ager of Loews here-had assembled to install" the new manager, Mr. Balley-or whatever it is they do to new managers
 There's no necessity of saying any thing to Birmingham people about MT. keene because every body who knows nlm likes him and he has friends by the score here but 1 do want to say some- thing about Mir. Stainback because there are lots of people who do not know that he is not only one of the rest liked men in the theatrical busi- ness in the south, but one of the pion- eers Gin point of length of service-not years).
 Mir Stainback is the son of a Cum nerland Presbyterian minister pr. George T. Stainback of Columbus. Miss isslppi one of the noblest characters that ever lfved2and every Mississippian who ever knew this wonderful man will tell you so, and when it comes to friends the son of his father numbers

 The ring-bearer, Charles Frazer, 3rd, handsome little cousin of the bride, wore suit of white satin and carried the ring in the heart of a white rose.
 The bride was accompanied by her father, MT. W. J. Beeland, and was a lovely picture in her bridal robe of white satin, pearls and tulle, exquisitely fashioned. Her veil was caught to her hair with orange blossoms and fell in soft folds forming a graceful train. A dainty chain and inlaid locket brought from overseas by the groom was worn with this beautiful costume, and a show CT bouquet of brides roses completed the picture of girlish beauty.

Bailey was just going into office and in.chat- ting with him about his theatrical man agerial career. he told me that he had emerged from the newspaper game into the show" game whereupon of course I asked:
 Why"
 When l went into newspaper work, ' Mr. Bailey said it was through my uncle Congressman William Worth Bailey who owned the Johnstown Daily Democrat and my experiences covered every phase almost of news paper work. I became especially in terested in theatrical criticism and it was in this way that I became identi- fled largely with the theatres. Going to every thing and writing about every body theatrical drew me into close contact with the stage and ] soon be- came more interested in that than [ was in newspaper work for they are very nearly kin, you might say
 At any rate, I gave up newsp spaper work and went to New York and be sides doing regular theatrical work I was also interested in Moving Pictures" MT. Bailey said, and from there I took up the managerial end of the game"
 "I secured the position of manager for the two theatres in Scotseale, Penn syivania." he continued, "one of which was moving picture playhouse and the other a combination vaudeville moving picture, and legitimate drama play house. These being the only two theatres in the city. we varied our
