The dramatist's craftsmanship
here is very telling. 1t cannot fail to
impress an audience that will give de-

the situation has been recognized by
leading critics of the drama in our

Evening Chat
our Little Pal is Dead

A great many of my friends
knew peggy" and will grow sor'
royful along with me this evening
because she has gone away Q !,
ever. Peggy died very suddenly
yesterday afternoon and 1t is VIII,
the keenest misery write about
her. i would not speak of her be-
cause there are many who canno:
understand how dearly one may
learn to love a little soul like
peggy, but some how l cant think
Of anything else and it will be
DAYS and days before | can.
Peggy came TO us about -four
years ago. She was small ana
white and lovable and so crept III
to our hearts that never an hour
jpassed that she did not :Clare with
ns! She was only a dog but she
was far mort faithful, more sin
cere than many a human and Shc
was so loved by friends and neigh
beys that as We stood by her grave
and wep topenly and hard. not
one OF us was ashamed. /,
Peggy was a wonderful pal and
no matter what the program for
the day CHANGED to be, she was
ready and anxious to take part.
very often we told her she must
stay al, home and see that no mice
bothered about the kitchen. mo,
Peggy, you can't come this time.
she instantly wheeled about and
took alert position in front of our
htchen cabinet where She watch
ed and listened faithfully for the
faintest scratch. All day and all
night she would sit preoccupied
She was almost human. She uu
derstood anything you said to her
and all but spoke many times,
She had o dear habit OF twisting
her small body about in an effort
to tell you she loved you. She did
love us. She was a discriminating
little soul too Just one Of the
neighbors was singled out fol
some Of her lavish affection. 1t
was q thing which grew from veal
to year. At first she called at this
worian's house and stayed but q
moment. As the days went by and
very often we were not at home.
Peggy grew lonely. and she began
calling oftencr at this neighbor's
home SO near. Month by month
her attachment grew. We were
Jealous.
one day We said TO Peggy:
Haven't we got any girl at all
anymore?" Peggy was sitting on q
high bench close to her new
friends side. She looked down at
us ina peculiar manner. Then she
looked UP into the face OF her
friend. She wagged her beautiful
pIumed tail frantically and she
started down toward US looking
hack as though to say: u have
learned somehow to love you, but
love these other f6fRs too who
are my very own people i want to
70 with them but Z want to come
back to see you tomorrow"
Yesterday the neighbors who
made Peggy such a wonderful
.ffiend. the woman who loved her
dearly, learned she was dead. She
hurried over, q shawl about her
mead, an apron to her eyes. She
came down into the cellar. wheT
peggy lay ready for burial and
sta lifted the corner Of a little
Blanket which covered nor face
ind she said, her voice broken
with tears: !,
.,Peggy was the best friend J
mad. Oh. II everybody loved
mesassPeggy did, what a wonderful
world this would bel"
We. her master and mistress,
donk know what we will do with

No, | don't take the local paper

well, that's one way to look at it,"
said the other farmer, but I've always
felt that a local newspaper was a
pretty valuable asset to any commu-
nifty, and if everybody took the atti-
tude you do, there couldn't be any To-
cal newspaper. OF course we could
not get along without our daily papers,
because they keep us informed about
what's going on throughout the ma
ton and throughout the world, but
when you say that they take care Of
our local news, don't think you are
sticking close to facts They simply
can't, and the publishers haven't any
personal interest in our community
the way our editor has.
II have always felt that | got value
