Improvement Of Tbe Rual Life
It is not in the cities that this country
now needs the service of the flower of
its patriotic manhood. It is in the
country where the great national problem
of the improvement of the rual lifa .s to
be solved, where more beautiful towns
and villages and oetter roads are. to be
built, better schools to be established,
telephones and trolley lines constructed,
and all the influences put to work that
will socialize the country, and drive
away the isolation and hardships that
were formerly its drawbacks.
We must not only stjp and reverse
the great tide of population that has
been drifting from the country to the
cities. We must decentralize industry
and trade a9 well, as population. The
pariotisrn that is latent in every heart
must find an outlet in every country

THE STA
With the engagement of Thurlow Ber
gen as leading man for Florence Roberts.
John Cort has completed the cast of "The
Strength of the Weak" which will go into
rehearsal at the Berkeley Lyceum Thea
tre, September 1st, and open the season
of the Broad Street Theatre Philadelphia,
September 17th for two wseks. Miss
Roberts will use "The Strength of the
Weak" next season until she returns to
New York with several new plays.
Quite the most recent device to be at
tempted in a dramatic production will be
found in "The Illusion of Beatrice," the
new comedy by Martha Morton Conheim,
in wh'ch Maude Fealy will start next sea
son. The second act represents a bache
lor suite on the 5th floor of an apartment
hotel. In the center of the set, a door
leads to the hallway, opposite which is an
elevator shaft. The operation of a pract
ical elevator provides the innovation which
John Cort has introduced in his latest
production.
Speculation anent the name of the com
edy in which Max Figmar. will star next
season has incited the managers in var
ious towns along his route to adopt a nov
el method of advertising the comedians
forthcoming engagement. When the lists
of attractions booked at the various thea
tres were published, the elimination of
Figman's starring vehicle brought forth a
number of inquires. In fact while it has
1 been announced that he would appear in
a comedy which enjoyed a successful run
here last season, the name nas been with-
! held. In Troy. N. Y where Figman will
begin his season, the manner vf Rand's
Opera House, has started a guessing con
test among his patrons and to the first
theatre-gner whose correct answer is re
ceived, wii! he rewarded a h.x for the
' opening performance.
