In school... ; providing they keep up . tho standard of writing they - have nttalned. Such pupils .are tested each semester and any who fall' below the quality of .writing demanded are re-assigned to a penmanship class. . In a, letter to Sunt. B. H. Hed rick, W. J. Rice, president of the nice Publishing Co.. states, "With- out. any thought of flottory, I lie Hove that, you are doing tho most , systematic -and thorough Job of teaching ,, tho subject .of writing that is.being .done , anywhere, that .

Ii commenting upon tho subject Supt' Hbdrlcit said, 'Credit for tif Is. belongs to Miss Lillian Wise and our elementary grade writing v;tea.chers. They have be?n work ing Intelligently and hnrd and aro 'ffbttine results. ', "We are not, however, making uny fetish of penmanship at all and I do not think we aro doing any moro for that subject than wo. aro for the otharH. , Hosults In this subject, howovor, show more ;quickly. 1 ' "About two 'or three years ago Wo . directed, our teachers toward ' aVsorlous stiidy of the subject of penmanship'.

Third, we had . our supervisor in the, junior high, Miss Wise, con duct classes for tonohors nftor school hourw, tonohlng them how ' t6 write nnd how to toach It. Bomo results wore shown , almost Immediately by the pupils. "At this time, between one third and one half of all our pupils nro not only finishing tho. subject two years sooner than they did, but are writing nn eighth grndo stan dard Instead of a fifth. We ex pict !nt . least two-thirds of our pupils to bo doing this by another yoar. The tlmo saved may be used by tho pupils Tor othor work. Not, only this, but it cuts down our touching load In Junior high school and Is savin? right now ' half Ihe time of ono tonchor over what it required three years ago.

Antonio, him self, when he no tices my Indig nation, always says in DIs gentle way, "Never mind; In laughter fools betray their Ignorance; wise men tliolr under standing." Among those who know his his tory and appreciate his character. Antonio Latour Is not a person to excite ridicule. His name once promised to endure with the names of Booth and Barrett and Irving and Mansfield and other actors of their day and rank. You who are old enough to remember tho thea ter In the yeafs from '70 to 'S3 will recall the great artists with whom M was associated. He had only small parts. It la true, but the crit ics spoke very kindly ot his work. Many times I hare seen tho news paper' clippings, yellow with age "I overheard and worn by much handling, which I the old actor treasures with such pride. ' But Antonio Latotir's curoer was ended when be was still a young man. He Is old now, with silver white hair, faded blue eyes, and thin trembling limbs; but bis One old actor's face Is lighted with rare Intelligence and feeling; he car rles himself with that proud erect ness which distinguishes gentle men of the stage und Le never ap pears without a flower in the lapel ot his ancient coat. Antonio lives alone 'n the an cient bouse In which bis father was born. From It he can see the many acres that once belonged to his an cestors. His family was rich, the villagers will toll you, as they won der how the old actor manages now to keep soul and body togothcr. "Poor, Old Tony.' they will say. "be set out to be a famous actor and now be has nothing." But Old Tony laughs and says, "I have enough. WhOL one has nothing one has freedom from a host ot pestiferous bores. These Rood neighbors do not know how rich I am." One evening, with a chuckle ot mirth, Antonio said: "I overheard that Buxton woman talking about me today. Sho and two other wo men stopped In front ot my house. 'And this horo.' sho said (tho old actor mimicked the Buxton wo man's voice to perfection), Ma the old Latour homo that I've', been tolllti' you about. Old Tony La tour he's lived hero all, alono evor since he obme tuck from actln' on tho ttago In New York, He's a good-foMiothln' a disgrace to his family and tho community. Look, the houso ain't had a brush of paint ner a tap of a hammer linen his poor paw died. Ills pnw nnd mnw they was a real credit to the town and church. Kldor Latonr hla paw Was.

"The good ladles did not know I was Just behind the hedge, digging up-tito ground for violets." He paused, then added softly, "Har riet loved violets." ;!. Because ' his life ' experience' Is what It Is, Old Tony thinks of bis story as a play and of life Itself In terms ot the theater. Many times I have beard him declaim: All the world's a stage. And nil the men and women merely players, . - . They have their exits and their en trances. ... . . ... - "Circumstances," the old. actor says, "shift the scones; Fate Is the stage manager; Nature the direc tor; Ood the producer;, we. the ac tors, enter, play our parts and oil t Tho play goes on and on and. on. Ant always tliero are members ot tho company standing In the wings." . Our little village or Orchard Hill, with the First National Bank, the Owl Drug Store, Harriet's house, tho home of the Careys and the county Jail, to Old Tuny Is. a stage set. The back drop Is a scene ot rolling hills with farm houses and fields showing here and there amid that Buxton woman talking about tho wqotls. Tuuy's house lis well down stugo close to the footlights, as It were at the edge ot the vil lage, overlooking the river, the val ley, and the wide sweep of country beyond. . , The Orchard Hill set has been changed since Antonio Latour's first entrance over 70 years ago. The simple peace and quiet of the ccuntry village where Harriet and Tony played their parts Is gone now. Modern Improvements have come to. Orchard Hill notaries. Li ons, Klwanls, a Chamber of Com moroe, an Advertising Club, boost ers. When I remark, with lamen tations, on these changes the old nclnr says, "Oh, well the artists oi tho theater. you know, have al ways boon forced to yield a little to the box office." , . Many ot the actors who were on the atngo with Harriet and Tony In thoso opening scenes have made their final exits. Nor will Old Tonr bo sorry to make his exit, for he believes, as Pierre Donovan be lieves, that Harriet Noel, Pierre's mother, Is there off stage waiting to welcome him and that together he nnd the woman ho loved with such raro devotion will stand In the wings watching her son as he acts his part In this play which we call Lite. You know who Pierre Donovan Is, ot course. Perhaps you have seen him on the stage. There are those who say that his name will go down In theatrical history as the greatest actor ot his generation. Orchard Hill says that Antonio Latour hat wasted his life In Idle ness. Tho old actor, when Aroused, says of the villagers. "Clods, dolts! Thoy do not know how great a thlntr It Is tn have helped to make an ortlsl like Pierre Donovan. What can theso people, hi their narrow llttio conisnonplaco colls, wallod lu by I heir stupid nmtorlnllsm, know of the wnrld In which Harriet Noel and I lived tho world Into which Plerro was born?

Harriet's fa ther, "Doc" Noel, was druggist and be and his wife were highly re spected In Orchard H1IL Mrs. Noel died when Harriet was born and the child was raised, by an ugly old housekeeper, feared by every youngster In the village. Forced, to live too much within herself, the little girl soon learned that she could trick the housekeeper or ber father Into granting .her almost anything and so grew up doing much as she pleased. She was never a pretty child, M so. many little g'rls are pretty. Her face was freckled, her nose strong ly Inclined to turn up; she bad me today, 1.;ko gray-green eyes, a wide mouth, a broad forehead, ind a gen ernl air ot elflshnest) that pro . voked. the villagers w wonder "what the child would some to." .

He did not become conscious of ner until the year before they graduated from thi publla school." Tony . II;, Harriet was two years younger. She bad been a grade behind him but that, year ebo caught op with his class so that they would grad ate together., . g, . ' . One evening when we wero sit-, ting In tle summer twilight the old gentleman said. "It Is. strange how that part ot my lite when I 'was 'an' actor seems to ma. now. to he only a dream." And then be continued as though he had forgotten my presence: "But my childhood and youth which I spent here In Or ctai ' Hill with Harriet those years of my life' are very real,". They who pride themselves upon being too sophisticated and world-ly-wlsa to Indulge In. sentiment will laugh with bard laughter at this old man's memolos. They will say that Antonio Latour's story Is senti mental bosh. .'.',, Well, of this I am convinced: All normal men and women who have truly lived do have, such emo tional memories. And I. believe, ton. that It tbe truth were known, the heart experiences, which -.then world-hardoned critics so cafefullv hlde are the dearest treasures r-l their years.
