entire picture is on the grand
opera scale with magnificent col

opera, some exaggerated acting.
Pima comes in for more ap-

by large cast. The voice of Jan

CLOSED REHEARSAL
SLATED MONDAY EYE

Over the weekend members Of
the cast Of the drama sour
Town." to be presented April Is
at the Barn Theatre by the Key
West Players, win be studying
their roles for intonation, gestures
and the polishing touches. Direc-
tor Josef Hurka announced Thurs
day evening that at Mondays re-
hearsal Of all three acts, the cast
could expect to be stopped for
every necessary correction. For
this reason it is requested that
only the cast and stage crew be
present at the Barn.
The closed rehearsal Is neces-
sary at this point for, as Hurka
explained, ''In the interest Of
public relations, we ask that visi.
tors refrain from coming to the
Monday evening rehearsal. Peo-
pie who would see and hear all
the detailed correction at this
time would probably think the
play would never be whipped into
shape in the time between now
and opening night. Actually, the
corrective type Of rehearsal Is to
put finishing touches 10 q pro-
duction as the cast knows, but it's
something q little difficult to ex.
plain to the public" Hurka said.
Besides. the perfection routine
Ii intensely tedious to anyone ex-
cept the director, the crew and
the actors.

No drug today is 1907 effec-

covered drugs indicate progress

100000 persons in 1900. dwindled
to about 20 in 1851.
One reason why the dread dis

deadly work inside an almost i'm

tective coating that until 1916
