Those having the play in charge say "it will be done right." • Having confidence in ;the ability of the present cast to stage anything from "Trilby" to "The Merry Wives of Windsor," this writer is EAGER to see "Way Down East." And thereby hangs a tale-^not "A Winter's Tale," be it understood—but a tale of the days when he-was anything but EAGER to see; it,' and merely did so the first time to keep connected with his job bn. a daily newspaper in Philadelphia, "Pa.- ''.' .* * t rE Chestnut Street Theatre was a fashionable playhouse in the old days, and such stars' as May Robson and.William.H. Crane^ Fanny Davenport, Theodore Roberts, Booth, Barrett, Goodwin, .Mantell, and dozens ;of ■ others' displayed' their, histrionic ability there. So it came as ia surprise when'"Way .Down East" was booked in September. "Merely'a pastoral drama with no place to go and glad of the opportunity to find a resting booth," said the vrise ones when they heard that the Chestnut Street Theatre had been selected as the house to "try it on- the dog," a theatrical expression in those days meaning to test out a play be fore taking it to New York city. "The Old Homestead" had made such a. tremendous hit at the Union Square theatre, New York, and had run so long that many persons believed it could not be touched by any other pastoral-drama, so in the Philadelphia newspaper offices there were many inward groans when passes were handed out for "Way Down East." ... t t t THIS writer'had no intention of going to the Chestnut Street Theatre to see "Way Down East." He agreed with the editor of the theatrical page that pastoral-dramas were out of place in cities the sizeNjf Philadelphia and that their propel- habitat of presentation whs jwhete the-.jofn waVed in. long gre^en rovysj- '■• }': \\ Then somethihg'^happeriecl. A particular friend called this writer-aside, and.asked him to take his-two tickets and write a stick (about 18 lines) for the paper the next day. This narrator could not refuse for several reasons, the chief one.being that he was1.his friend's assistant on the news desk, and news editors have a quiet way of looking at you. [Years later when I became news editor I refused to adopt the "quiet way of looking," probably ^because I have, or did have, a heart.] ON the way to see "Way Down East" ■-.' I met a politician. He said he was disgusted with life. "Just the man I am looking for. Come with me. You'll forget all about your political battles tonight.": He' said, with a worried look, "Sure you are up to standard physically?" So in we went. In the first act my friend the politician was ready to swear on a thousand Bibles that he knew personally every one on the stage. And this writer thought the same thing. That play took the town by storm—a trite expression—but a true one. People flocked from all parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland to see "Way Down East," and for weeks the Chestnut Street Theatre was packed every night and at each matinee. It went to New York and became a "roar." It. was a victory! In closing this sketch of those days it is only fair to my friend the politician, to say that he went home in great gleg, and before he left the theatre he ordered two seats for the next night, "and he saw it in all twelve times. As for myself, I saw it three times; a pretty good record fbr. an active newspaper writer. plauFgrange Officers' Conference To Be Held On Tuesday Night, Jan. 8.

To all our services a hearty welcome is extended. The pastor discovered upon his return to his parish home from his Christmas visit to New York that some one had gotten in, and, instead of carrying anything out, something was,carried,in and,properly installed. Evidently the "consistorv and members of his church wanted their pastor to.be in touch with the world, for they; put in place a fine Radiola. The gift represents value, but most of all it.is an.expression of- affection and good will. As such, it is most- highly prized. Thanks, many, many, thanks to the kind donors. The pastor hopes to be able to prove * himself worthy pf such a token of appreciation.

[By BEN LONG]
THEY ai-e going to stage "Way
Down East" at The Grand in
Canton next week. Those having
the play in charge say "it will be done
right." • Having confidence in ;the ability of the present cast to stage anything from "Trilby" to "The Merry
Wives of Windsor," this writer is
EAGER to see "Way Down East."
And thereby hangs a tale-^not "A
Winter's Tale," be it understood—but
a tale of the days when he-was anything but EAGER to see; it,' and
merely did so the first time to keep
connected with his job bn. a daily
newspaper in Philadelphia, "Pa.-
''.' .* * t
rE Chestnut Street Theatre was a
fashionable playhouse in the old
days, and such stars' as May
Robson and.William.H. Crane^ Fanny
Davenport, Theodore Roberts, Booth,
Barrett, Goodwin, .Mantell, and dozens
;of ■ others' displayed' their, histrionic
ability there. So it came as ia surprise
when'"Way .Down East" was booked
in September.
"Merely'a pastoral drama with no
place to go and glad of the opportunity to find a resting booth," said the
vrise ones when they heard that the
Chestnut Street Theatre had been selected as the house to "try it on- the
dog," a theatrical expression in those
days meaning to test out a play be
fore taking it to New York city.
"The Old Homestead" had made
such a. tremendous hit at the Union
Square theatre, New York, and had
run so long that many persons believed it could not be touched by any other
pastoral-drama, so in the Philadelphia
newspaper offices there were many inward groans when passes were handed out for "Way Down East."
... t t t
THIS writer'had no intention of going to the Chestnut Street Theatre to see "Way Down East." He
agreed with the editor of the theatrical page that pastoral-dramas were
out of place in cities the sizeNjf Philadelphia and that their propel- habitat
of presentation whs jwhete the-.jofn
waVed in. long gre^en rovysj- '■• }': \\
Then somethihg'^happeriecl. A particular friend called this writer-aside,
and.asked him to take his-two tickets
and write a stick (about 18 lines) for
the paper the next day. This narrator
could not refuse for several reasons,
the chief one.being that he was1.his
friend's assistant on the news desk,
and news editors have a quiet way of
looking at you. [Years later when I
became news editor I refused to adopt
the "quiet way of looking," probably
^because I have, or did have, a heart.]
ON the way to see "Way Down East"
■-.' I met a politician. He said he was
disgusted with life. "Just the man
I am looking for. Come with me.
You'll forget all about your political
battles tonight.": He' said, with a worried look, "Sure you are up to standard physically?" So in we went.
In the first act my friend the politician was ready to swear on a thousand Bibles that he knew personally
every one on the stage. And this
writer thought the same thing. That
play took the town by storm—a trite
expression—but a true one. People
flocked from all parts of Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland
to see "Way Down East," and for
weeks the Chestnut Street Theatre
was packed every night and at each
matinee. It went to New York and became a "roar." It. was a victory!
In closing this sketch of those days
it is only fair to my friend the politician, to say that he went home in
great gleg, and before he left the theatre he ordered two seats for the next
night, "and he saw it in all twelve
times. As for myself, I saw it
three times; a pretty good record fbr.
an active newspaper writer.

of January. There are those who
think of taking up membership with.-
us at this communion season. Will
such nlease note the date? If by letter or otherwise they expect to come
into our ipembership they will have
to be in readiness by that time. Of
course we receive members at any
time, but the communion season is the
time when it is specially stressed.
Our next Sunday's appointments
will be regular. To all our services a
hearty welcome is extended.
The pastor discovered upon his return to his parish home from his
Christmas visit to New York that
some one had gotten in, and, instead
of carrying anything out, something
was,carried,in and,properly installed.
Evidently the "consistorv and members of his church wanted their pastor
to.be in touch with the world, for they;
put in place a fine Radiola.
The gift represents value, but most
of all it.is an.expression of- affection
and good will. As such, it is most-
highly prized. Thanks, many, many,
thanks to the kind donors. The pastor
hopes to be able to prove * himself
worthy pf such a token of appreciation. Mdy the good Lord richly bless
you all, and grant- you- a blessed and:
fruitful year.
