work waa that of a painstaking and care

correct valu ln the perspective and th

Mtually reaching a climax. In "Th Mar

the best time to hear music, either In
America or abroad, but It Is a famous time
to peel off your coat and get down to good,

Recreation and rest do not necessarily lie
In Europe, either. They may lie In a back

deferred course of vocal exercises; the
further study of French. In fact, any new,

George H. Breunan of "Tha Clansman"
company said:
The action of the Southern Traffic as
sociation rings the deathknell of the
moneyless manager. Never again will It
be possible to travel the southern circuit
on a shoestring. Take, for example, nn
opera company of flft people traveling
an average of l.rinn miles a week. Before
starting out their manager numt buv them
fifty l.ncvmllo books that la, he must ad
vance H.ssrt. to the railroad company beTore
he can give his first performance.' More
over, he la paying a cent a mile morn
than he used to, the, old rate for firty or
more persons having been onlv V, cents
per mile. This represents an aide,i outlay
of $fino a week, or $?rt,oo) for a season of
