"Officer 666."
"Officer 666," a play produced by
the Red Cross Dramatic company,
achieved a wonderful success at the
time of the Carnival. It has since
been given in the Canadian city of
Cowansville and greeted there with
extraordinary favor as shown by the
accompanying clipping from the
Sherbrooke Record. The play abounds
in thrilling situations accompanied by
a vein of the best and cleanest of hu
mor, keeping the audience at the top
notch of interest and expectation
from start to finish. There is liter
ally not a dull moment in the play.
Besides the Cowansville performance
the play has been presented three
times at the Colonial theatre at Rich
ford to packed houses, and also at
Enosburg Falls. If you have any
doubt as to your going, just ask the
man who went. It will be presented
for the benefit of the Red Cross, at
Orleans on the afternoon and evening
of September 22.
"Cowansville, Aug. 10. On Thurs
day night in the town hall the well
known play, "Officer 666," was given
very successfully. Never before in
the history of the hall has its walls
contained such a large audience. In
fact, not a seat was available when
the play started. But the responsi
bility for such a great success must
be attributed in their respective
sphere, to the talented players and
the daughters of the Empire, Eccles
Hill chapter, under whose auspices
the play was given. The former cer
tainly did full justice to the play,
bringing to light all the jest in the
work and kept the audience much
amused, while at the same time de
tailing the various incidents of the
play. The players were certainly
very capable, and the audience com
posed of people from far and near,
will long remember their accomplish
ed playing. As to the Daughters of
the Empire, be it said that they have
added another link to the golden
chain of their numerous successful
enterprises. Apart from providing
a wholesome and splendid entertain
ment they have contributed finan
cially to that wonderful institution
which during the war is doing much
humanitarian work, the Red Cross."

Don't make the mistake this fall of thinking that econ
omy is in saving money; economy is in getting some
thing for Tour money, not in the amount you spend.
The war may be a good thing for this country if it
teaches that lesson; there's a good deal of money wasted
in America every year by spending it for cheap stuff.
Good clothes such as
Hart Schaffner & Marx
make are the true economy. You dont get any more
cloth or buttons in one of these suits than in any other
suit you may buy; it is the quality of materials and
tailoring that counts; more months of sound, satisfying
service and good looking shape-keeping.
If you figure your clothes expense by the month, in
stead of by the suit or overcoat, you'll find that one of
our Hart Schaffner & Marx suits or overcoats costs you
less than clothes that you pay half as much for. That's
why we sell these clothes; they cost more than lots of
clothes you see, but you get so much more that it
pays you.
