HOME AND SCttUOOL ASSOCIATION j l)r. Alexander Johnson, of tie Vine-' land Training School, delivered a very j intci eating address at the regular ' monthly meeting of the Cap«- Mav home' and School Association, at the High School Building, illustrating it by charts. Other features of the program, j were choruses by high school pupils and • Victrola s- lections. There was a large , number of people in attendance. Shelling a cathedral hurts a town, 1 and shelling peanuts doesn't help it much. A town isn't all main street; new po robes are as important as new pave:1 Opportunity knocks once at each | man's door; better be at home when h I July 4th is all right, but don't let that jfye the only day you try to wake* up tie town. Let your opinion of this town be like ' the tpisy bee: let it improve each shin- ' ing minute. If you would like to have somebody I working for. you, put a little money in | the bank. Don't spend so much time talking war - that you haven't any time left to talk I business. "Home, Sweet Home" looks better on the piano than a mail-order catalog on the center table. The world owes every man a living; but the street corner is a poor collection If you wantrto put a new shingle on blie roof, Johnny will be glad to take it up there for you. i Plaster your bouse and everybody will follow your example. Lath and the world latlis with you. T^e^ can't all be Michael Angeloi; bdO : almost any man can wdrk wonders with a can of house-paint. This town would look better if some of the people who go out driving would take along a hammer and nails. I When you look at a mail-order catalog. remember that sometimes the best part of tho circus is the parade. , A felloty prints a kiss on a girls cheeks, and then the next thing he | knows he is looking at bine-prints. Some people believe in giving even the devil bis dues, and then forget all about j the secretary of the Board of Trade, j A few [line boards bouglrt now and | used to chink up the cracks may save ! vuu buying pine, tar aud honey.

Time of halves. 20 minutes. Referee, Robbins. a Preparations on a scale of massive c splendor completely eclipsing every - r thing heretofore attempted in connec- ^ : ' tion with the staging of a play in Philadelphia are under way at the Forrest j Theatre, Philadelphia, for Klaw nod Er- ' lunger's Panama-Pacific World's Fair ' production of "Ben Hur" at that playhouse for the holiday season beginning Monday evening, December 21, when in ' addition to the usual Wednesday and Saturday matinees, holiday matinee* ii are announced for Oiriatmas and NewYear's days. For a year this producing h ( i firm have had scholars, mechanicians, a artisans and painters at work on this new production, in fact, all the skill p , that unlimited capital can 'command, p , was brought to bear in preparing this j work to make this the greatest of all M the series of productions seen during L*| tin- fifteen years that "Ben Hur" has . i b-eii the leading attraction of the world. Winthin the past decade, since "BenHur" received its first production at tW ' Broadway Theatre, New York, numer- 1 1 ous leligio -historic dramas more or less pretention* have been, staged, the majority of which sooner or later have been consigned to. thd storehouse while a few 4 ' of mediocre merit have managed to exist by reason of some particular scene or situation, which, by its very sensationalixm appealed to a certain element of tiie play going public, and thus in-n 1 measure compensated for the countless other defects. Hut -Ben Hur" has glor- • iously withstood the test and. instead " 1 jof waning in popularity, wins new ad- * I mirers with eaeh consecutive performance. ' I At the time of its first production in I " jJWm captious critics ridiculed the idea j of a dramatization of General Wallace's '■ work, picturing as it does the earth life jof Christ, making no pretense at sen- * ' sationalisui but rather aiding to instruct 3 aud uplift its audiences, proving successful as a stage portrait. This was * only natural in viewlof the fact that General Wallace himself had for many 3 years positively refused to consider a dramatization of liis book. His argu- 3 - mcnt being that it was impossible to . I portray the presence of the Saviour , 3 without incurring the resentment of j that portion of the theatregoing public " whose aii) and assistance must necessar- ' ily be secured. The enterprising firm of Klaw and Erlanger thought otherwise, * and their judgment has been verified by enormous financial returns during the a past fifteen years. One of the most, potent factors in the continued success of "Ben Hur" is the * high standard which has been maintain- j «1 since its first production. There has j ' never been but one organization engaged 3 . in its interpretation, and the many changes that have occurred in the cart ^ from time to time as well as in the ( elaboration of the scenic and mechanical equipment have all been made for the ^ betterment of the production. More 1 than 200 people make up the touring ^ company this season, which lnclndes a ^ large orchestra under the direction of B Mr. Gustav Hinrichs, formerly conductor of Grand Opera at the Metropolitan Op- p era House, New York. o v Send postal card to Troy laundry, jC C kft May, for their 1818 Calendar. *
