Might -Tadd a thought in connec tlon with tho subject ot tho new "gym." and its uses? I agrco with you in all that, yon say about tho. "oHmo Dramatic" hut I also think that when the people pay for a thing thoy own it Now the gym. nasiutn Is not only for stage work, but for dancing and tho amuement or work of gymnastics, for debates, lee. turcs, recitals, educational screen pic. turoa nnd indeed for the many aad varied' uses for which thero is a de mand. ' Why don't our mothers and fathers go thero and take some gymnasium work, it would do them good and create a sympathy for tho time spent In that direction by tho high school boys and girls. I hear them say "we are too tired". Now don't laugh, it would really rest you. Why not the boys and girls of our town who aro not In school this year spend nn eve. Ing each .weok there in recreational pursuits! I It Is on idoal placo for parents and toachors to meet and enjoy somo of tholr nluch need discussions, and hy tho way of rest witness tholr chil. dron In dramatic art or a good livo educational picture Yes, you aro' right about tho drama hut why, not havo a debating society 7 And a dancing school, wo can got pic. turcs allowing all tho proper positions and all tho dances old and now from which wo would learn and becomo 'graceful, charging, ddncors.

Nono of our stars jumped Into that sphcro without training, whoro and when will they get that education Thoro Is no doubt about it wo have exceptional talent right hero in many tines, which talent may, as well never ea;4lsMfimot Biv properrain Ing bo lot me ado to what you havo said, Mr, Editor,' let's start somcthlni,'.' Innsmuch as wo have a place like tho now "gym," let's everybody keep It busy, it Is ours. Let's get the fellows who were Instrumental In getting It give ii rousing opening. Then como right nlong with drnmn nnd ull these other things nboro mentioned. Respectfully, A SUBSCRIBER Another Citizen Wnntw Homo Dramatics Dear Editor: I read with intorcst youi article In last wcok's Ibsuo, urging that moro home dramatics bo given this fall and winter. I think tho suggestion is a splendid ono, and I am suro that no better local entertainments can bo given. I am Interested greatly in tho dovolopmcnt of talents In our young people, either music, art or drama. I am wondering why tho now High school auditorium, which has been built and completod nearly a month ago, has novor been used. It scorns a slinmo to havo this enormous build. Ing and tho money It represents lay. Ing idlo. I firmly believe that a dramatic as. , Boulatlon should ho formed. I think , that such an organization could pro. sent plays as you suggest onco or twlco a weok and with proper man. ngemont, could bo n big success. Thoro Is nothing that can compare with good plays to glvo tho peoplo clean, whnlcsomo ontortnlnmcnt. I Blncoroly hopo your suggestion la cnrrled out. A READER. u Wm. J. Bryan Will !
