For a number Of months now, ever

stantly bombarded with raves" over

there, now knows full well the cause
for the hullabaloo.

has an abundance of talent, a depth
of emotion and an insight into char

makes little Felicity Hughes, child Of
a home about to be torn asunder by
divorce, a living person, whose prob
lens and mental tortures will take
an immense hold upon you. She de-
velops the character as sensitively as
would any talented player twice her
age.
Miss Pilbeam is just about the whole

has dropped off little since the 1884 peak but the
1885 figures will not be valuable until the end of the
year.
The number of cases is not known exactly but is
calculated from the deaths reported. Some author-
ties estimate 200 for every DEATH but Dr. Will

years ago"
The general impoveriShment of the people since
the depression has been blamed by some for the
alarming increase of malaria in the South The
feeling is that people have been too poor to buy QUIZ
