A Letter To A ROy

Here is letter to a boy, to boy about to quit
high school and go to work a milling machine.
Z The boy is a sophomore. He has failed in school
just once, in the last examinations. His parents
have little money. not much, but are willing to
make a few sacrifices in order to- see their
through college.
Here is the letter:
Dear Frank:
II have just heard of your decision to quit school
but perhaps should not call it decision because

 IN SEWARD AT NIGHT

It is quite evident there is a Peep ing Tom" abroad at night in Seward for two complaints were registered at police headquarters this morning from two residences. At one of these homes the lady of the house discerned a man looking thru a window but the dark ness prevented her catching glimpse of his likeness. Shortly afterwards she saw a man peering into the win dows of a neighbor's window. The men of the house searched outdoors for the trespasser but 'Peeping Tom" had faded into the darkness.

Something Of Miss Norton,s

the fact that at a recent 'Friars'

The Werfel drama. beginning

acting OF Ann Harding and Jacob

Speaking of tragedies, there
was the presentation. Ashes Of
Love, Of, by and with the Count

merits, the only question that
arose among the critics was
whether a worse play was ever
produced in this fair city. The
engagement was for one week
and the week terminated tonight.
Tomorrow the piece win be
history.
Among the productions Of I'M
usual interest is Rainbow Rose,
the new musical comedy at the
Forrest Theater, in which George
MacFarlane, the famed singer,
makes his bow as producer. In
the face of the most difficult OBJ
stacles on a long road season,
MacFarlane brought his show to
New York, and as a truly heroic
measure eliminated himself from
the cast before the Broadway pre-
miere. Whether fate smiled on
this sacrifice is altogether con-
jecturable, but the comedy is
prospecting and George appears
happier behind the grin in the
box office than he ever looked in
his most exuberant moments be-
hind the footlights.
