The jrreat rural pJay, "Khore Acres'
Is soon to be seen here. There Is a
balmy, autumnal atmosphere ever
hanging over' "Shore Acres." It Is a
i symphony of ripened grain , and red
leaves. It springs upon one with the
subdued hum of birds and takes one

the country. It strikes home to tha
hearts of the people and that accounts
for Its great lasting powers. 'Archie
I Boyd, the great character actor anil
'a first-class company, with all new
