sale IN all parts OF the State, under

Association. This year, under the
direction of DR.. Walter McNab Miller,
executive secretary of the Association,
it is hoped to at least double the sales
of last year. q
Object of the Sales.
The direct object of the sale ofSezfs
is to assist in the fight on tuberculosis.
The yearly deaths from this disease
in the State have been reduced from
5,113 in 1911 to 1892 in 1920, due
largely to the work of education and
prevention carried N by the Missouri
Tuberculosis Association. With the
momentum already acquired, and the
experience of the past ten years as a
guide, DIR. Miller thinks it will be pos
sible to reduce the mortality from that
disease in 1922 to half what it was in
1911.
Health and School Week.
The observance of Health and School
Week, as officially designated in a
proclamation by Governor Hyde, is
closed on Sunday, December 10th, with
appropriate sermons in all churches in
the State.
There will be Health Plays, to be
given in the schools, and health films
and songs, with special lessons and
exercises for the purpose of directing
attention to the Importance Of SANTA
ton and hygiene in the home. One
day will be designated as Live Exten-
sion Day, and on that day eminent
physicians and dentists have offered
their services free to those who wish
to take examination.
Sale Of Seals.
The sale Of Tuberculosis Christmas
Seals began December A and closes
December "a. The seals this year are
from a very attractive design. They
are sold for a penny each and come
in sheets, so the purchaser can buy
as many as desired in convenient form.
In addition, an attractive Seal Fund
Certificate in regular form will be sold
for from 50 to 800. In most counties
in the State tuberculosis Christmas
Seal Fund Certificates will be sold at
50 each. This certificate is very at
tractive and appears in the garb OF
the Christmas-tide.
State is Organized.
For months past organizers have
been busy in all parts of the State,
preparing for the sale of the Seals.
Volunteer workers in every community
have received their instructions and
supplies and have been organized so
they will work quickly and efficiently.
The idea is to give every Missourian
an opportunity to buy all of the Seals
desired, and thus to have a part in
the great movement for a better and
more healtfful state.

What the year 1921 will bring forth
in the thcater depends upon the sue
cess or failure Of present productions
and the availability Of theaters.
The Shuberts have promised the pro-
duction of "In the Night Watch" the
spectacular drama adapted from the
French by Michael Morton. Since it is
planned to present the play on a mas

theater with generous stage space, pos

in the spring. Among other spring pro-
ductions will be n revival Of a musical
comedy success done along lines similar
to the revival of "Florodora" last April,
and there will be at least three original
musical picces-"Three Old Maids"
"The Rose Of Stamboul" and "Miss
Uuck" Non-musical plays which the Shu-
berts have In view include "The Dancin'

when he finishes with "Tho Purple

AS We W ere Saying

about "Mary Rose" and a number Of
persons have told me with more or less
authority just what Barrie was trying
to do. The only trouble is that no two
explanations agree. My composite i'm
preston of these explanations is that
the dead don't come back, and if they
do they don't like their old associates.
and, besides, they don't recognize them
anyway. In the logical land Of fantasy
such a story would be tossed back to
earth on the ground that its various
clements were mutually exclusive. In
deed, we think it has been tossed back.
The author of "Mary Rose" has flown
n the past, but this time he is earth
bound. To be sure he flaps, but I'm
not willing to concede that he even get,
as high as the henhousc.
l. = reported on reliable authority
that Barrie wrote MARY Rose" with
his left hand, but an error may have
crept in during the transmission Of
the runor The left foot seems much
more likely.
In speaking Of Lionel Atwill's per

within orr knowledge since John Bar
rym ores Richard We may have gone a
notch higher than we intended. Per-
caps II is no finer than that of Ben
Ami n Samson and Delilah," but, at
any rate, A.will's role is more exact
ing.
A rrangnifcent affair is "Deburau," ;"
always thrilling in it's beauty and gen
orally arresting in its dramatic inter
est. It's occasional lepses from high
the verse Of Granville Barker. The
.5acha Guitry version is verse, but free
verse. Barker has used a good many
metrical schemes, but we are told that
his adaptation may be best described as
rhymcd free verse. Some Of the rhyme
is distinctly pleasing to the ear, but
much of it is irritating, particularly af-
ter the first hour or so. The verse is
most blatant at such moments as
Barker chooses to turn his rhyme in
|, desperately short lines. He seems less
a poet then than a polo pony.
Atwils quite transccnds meter for US.
He makes Deburau seem not only a
magnificent person Of broad gesture
and romantic emotion, but human be-
irg. indeed, his Deburau remains a
human being even when Barker persists
in lassooing him around the neck aga.
and again with his couplets.
