This little squirming individ ual proved not only annoying to the audience, but also to the ae- tors on the stage, who imagined the boy about to fall onto the stage or into the orchestra, lie kept on plucking out almost the entire plush covering of the railing, twisting, turning, fumbling, scratching, without reprimand from his elders. The dialogue on the' stage nor action of the play ers could divert his attention from the red plush material. Eventually. Otis Skinner made his appearance in his reckless, dare-devil personality that he as sumes 90 well in the role of Col onel Philippe Rridau. This aroused Che little boy's decided attention, and especially so when Mr. Skin ner bangs his cane heavily on the table, with the outcry of "Well, do I see my uncle!" All eyes and ears was the little lad thereafter until a certain scene in Act. 3. In this scene the leading lady as the intriguing Flora tries to beguil Mr. Skinner, as Philippe, whom she has every reason in the play j to hate most bitterly, changes her attitude suddenly and coyly asks "Do you believe in dreams?" to which Philippe replies. "To h with dreams!" the boy, after that, fairly sat upon the railing, all in terest; he liked the .blustering, swaggering and blunt Philippe, and had no use for the lovely, but scheming and wistful Flora, his tsoldier man must not be ensnared j by this woman. Yet Flora's beau- ty and charm seemingly entrance r Philippe, sweet and affectionate I terms, a confession of love, desir ing a real master such as he, be come all his, quickly follow one another while she slowly and creep- ingiy approaches fftilippe. eveni ually falling into his arms. All seems at an end for poor Philippe, and after a bit of billing and coo ing, he suddenly throws her off. exclaiming, "No, no, my dear. I am an old hand at this game and I you cannot fool me." The boy in question leaned forward at this and at the top of his voice shouted "STUNG!" The audience became convulsed in laughter, the hoy had all eyes upon him, it was some time before the play could be con tinued. This play will show at the Elsinore June 22. 200 PEOPLE GIVEN JOBS Seasonal I-ibor Causes Activity at Employment Office Nearly ZOO put in touch people have "been with Jobs already this week through the YMCA em ployment agency, according to Sim Phillips, manager of the agen cy, which cooperates with the gov ernment in talking care of em ployment in this district. Because of the heavy herry crop which reaches its peak this week, Mr. Phillips expects that the total number for the week will mount over the 250 mark, a record for this year. A great deal of transient labor is arriving in Salem from outside points, and though work is found for many of them, it is impossible to care for them all. Local peo ple desiring work are practically all cared for, Mr. Phillips de clared, though some of them have only part time employment. CAR HITS, LEG BROKEN Elderly Man Injured When Struck .
