The dramatization of Gene Strat-ton-Porter's
popular novel, "Freck
les," is delighting thousands who
have read the book and thousands
who have not read it. As a song
play it is strong in poetic fancy, a
revelation to lovers of nature, and
possesses sufficient stirring incidents
to keep the dramatic interest at con
cert pitch at all times. And then

Mr. Samuel Davis, of Number
Twelve, paid us a very pleasant call
Monday. He lives near the place
where Mr. Scott & Co. are prospect
ing for oil. Says they have received
the necessary machinery and are
now at work on the well full time.
Mr. Davis thinks they have good
prospects for finding oil and feels
confident that valuable minerals, oil
and gas will be located in his section
and also thinks Capt. Scott and his
company are the right people to find
it. We hope Mr. Davis' conclusions
are correct.

In the abstract, strong stories do
not make strong plays, but with
"Freckles" dramatized from Gene
Stratton-Porter's novel of that name,
which will be the attraction at the
Reynolds next Tuesday, Oct. 26,
there is an exception; it has been
made a stronger play than a story,
and it is just as gripping to the
theatre goer as it was to' the novel
reader. It is a song play for all
classes. "Freckles," with his ready
wit and his sweet songs, gives to the
play a variety of incidents which is
otherwise strangely interesting and
strongly romantic. Prices 25, 35, 50
and 75 cents.
