were so impressed by the merits of
the play that they rushed to a famous
club of which all three were members
and began making excited inquiries:
"Have you seen "Kindling ?" Who
is Charles Kenyon? At once others
were interested. All agreed that a
work so. excellent must not be allowed
to pass into oblivion-that all the
writer's present owed a duty to their
unknown fellow to bring
his play to the notice of an appreci-
ative public. A unique scheme of adj
vertising was hit upon which caused
the great manager who had cancelled
"Kindling" to change his mind. 1t
was sent to Chicago where it opened
to a crowded house. Thereafter il
played for fifty weeks in every part
of the United States. And every time
it yielded a substantial profit to the
managers.
: Charles Kenyon wrote "Kindling'
because he cared deeply about life
He had something to say when he
wrote it and he said it to the best Of
his ability, with all the power in him
The story is interesting, the plot in
genious, the dialogue life-like
"Kindling" will prove an evening
of rare entertainment to those wht
