The chill of it abides with me yet. But behind it all I made out also what it was that had de praved their poor human nauir* and that the responsibility lav with us who let it be, who negfl -t of the neighbor that had falh" among thieves was to blame it all. The world is no wor than we make it. We also can make it good. NOTICE 1 will be in Blevins Krida.*, Saturday and Monday. Will ne in my Studio Tuesday. A, W. Nk\VTH.
