sensational dramatic success
to open - an endof-the-week

Delayed Letter
Is Plot-Germ in
John Ferguson
Tho real story of "John Ferguson."
the widely discussed four act play by
St John G. Ervine, that comes to the
Heilig today for the end of the
week, after a sensationally successful
run in New York, is the etory of a de
layed letter. John Ferguson is a
North of Ireland farmer of strictest or
thodoxy. He has written to ju -brother
in America for money to save the farm
on which the Fergusons have lived and
died for many generations. Andrew
Ferguson, the American brother, makes
a m intake in the mall day (the action
takes place in the eighties), and 1 the
draft arrives two weeks later than intended,--
The result is misfortune and
tragedy".
Simple as this reads, it Is the basis
of what has been called the most pow
erful play seen on the stage In many
years. It Is filled with suspense, sur
prise, pathos and, at times, flashes of
humor. Mr.-Ervine has not attempted
to create fanciful characters. His in
genuity lies in the working out of the
thoughts and actions of real persons,
such as may be found in any little
hamlet to a logical end, and It is the
fidelity of characterization that makes
the tremendous appeal of the play.
St. John G. Ervine, the author of this
noted play, was born in Belfast and
made a reputation as a novelist with
"Mrs. Martin's Man" and "Alice and a
Family" and as playwright with "Jane
Clegg," "Mixed Marriages," "The Mag
nanimous Lover" and especially with
k"John Ferguson."

fTTHB story of Madama Butterfly was
a- sung and played by the Monday
Musical dub before an appreciative au
dience of friends at "the Heilig Tuesday
night in a unique dramatic arrange
ment of the Japanese -romance. Inter
spersed with selections from the grand
opera. ;
The cast was compoeed entirely of
local talent. Ada Losh Rose interpreted
the difficult role of Butterfly through
her sad and tragic romance. The parts
of Suxuki and Muri were taken by Mrs.
Jane Burns Albert smd Mrs. Lulu Dahl
Miller. ' Walter Jenkins took the part
of the American consul and Paul Petri
as Pinkerton. Little Leona Mlgnon
Frost made a hit as Baby Trouble and
Mrs: A. D. Frost took the brief part of
Mrs. Pinkerton.
Mrs. Jane Burns Albert won a storm
of applause when she sang "One Fine
Day,'" and the Flower duet by her and
Mrs. Lulu Dahl Miller was equally well
received. The Monday Musical chorus
under the direction of ,Mrs. Rosa Cour-sen-Reed
gave a demonstration of their
ability, and' the Monday Musical or
chestra, directed by Mrs. E. L. Knight,
furnished the musio throughout the pro
gram. ,.
I pDEASON why
Why Does My Hair Stand on
End When I Am Frightened?
It does this under certain conditions.
because there is a little muscle down at
the root of each hair that will make
each heair stand up straight when this
muscle pulls a certain way. It is dif
ficult to -say Just bow these muscles
are caused to act in this way when we
are frightened. We know that when
thoroughly frightened our' hair will
sometimes stand straight up. and i
know that it is this muscle at the root
of each hair that makes it possible, but
why it Is that a big scare will make
this muscle act this war we do not as
yet know.

the coal strike Is coming it might as
well come now and be settled ona way

Dear Stroller: Anent your wal
lop at the ."Girl With the Green
Eyes," I beg to state in the inter
est of fairness: That I do not
know the lady; that some "poor but
respectable working girls" possess
- inherent good taste, clever fingers,
and the brain 'to cultivate both ;
that the result of the combination,
particularly if the lady has remark
able eyes, and a fair share of good
looks, usually gives rise to much
speculation, some kindly, some other
wise ; that that was my own case be
fore I began to raise a family, and

P. S. Mostly I enjoy your col

Quite so, quite sor A. M.. and may

BY THE time Tinker Bob and the
Fox children arrived with. Mr. Turtle,
Lady Duck, had scattered the news
throughout the forest Many of the for
est dwellers had never seen Mr. Turtle
nor any of his family, so they gathered
at the home of Lady Duck to await his
coming.
O. Possum waa angry and showed his
teeth when he heard what had happened
to Lady Duck. Major Pole Cat spoke his
wrath against Mr. Turtle also. Chief
Porcupine mentioned something about
punishment f
."Quack I "Quack I " There comes the
villlan, cried Lady Duck. . All eyes
peered eagerly! down the path.
O. Possum started out to meet the crim
inal but when his eyes beheld an ugly
head stretching out from under a black
and muddy shell he came back.
"That's a funny looking thing to be
alive," said O, Possum as they came
ne'arer.
"Everyone gather about closely," said
Tinker, "and we will listen to Mr. Tur
tle's story.
They gathered as closely as they
dared. Having never seen Mr. Turtle
before, they were a little shy.
"Now, Mr. Turtle, you can tell your
story," said Tinker Bob.
"I am very sorry this has happened,"
began Mr. Turtle, stretching his head
forth and looking around. "But I have
been controlled by an evil spirit which
left me when I came out of the river.
It came about like this: I was sunning
myself on a log when Old Man Fox
threw Lady Duck into the river. Then
when he became mad because Lady
Duck did not drown, he Jumped into
the. river himself. He soon tired of
swimming after Lady Duck and when
he could swim no more he sank to the

entered the river again his spirit came
and took possession of me and ever
since I have been waiting for Lady Duck
to come to- the river to fish. But when
I came out of the river the spirit left
me. And I have been thinking how sad
it is to think that a father's evil spirit
works after he is dead te destroy the
home of his children.
"Isn't that sad!" said O. Possum.
All were sorry for Mr. Turtle and
they gave him a home In the forest And
Tinker Bob was still greater In their
mind because he saved Lady Duck.
