VICTORY THEATRE NOTES. “The Storm", George Broadhurst^ production of Langdon McCormick's romance of the big woods opens an engagement of five days commencing Tuesday, March 8th, with a popular matinee fin Saturday only at the Vic­ tory Theatre, with Helen MacKellar and the original New York-Chicago Company. “The Storm” is* ,a •melo­ drama in four acts and five scenes and tells the story of two men and a girl marooned in a cabin in the Can­ adian wilds during a winter by the unexpected arrival of a •blizzard which cuts off their escape. Both love the girl madly—one with the strength of a man reared in the open— the 6th , e t with the passion that knows not what it is to be denied where there is a woman at stake. From bosom friends, they1become the deadliest of enemies. The object of their attention realizing that_sheJs_the_atoxm-center,, “bestows her smiles with the impar­ tiality that while intending to pacify the rivals, only serves to -fan the flame until there comes, a.cliifiax that sweeps every- one in the play and the ■ audience off their feet. This isthe roiriantic, ' red-blooded . play of all out. doors, melodramic is is true, but of the sort that grips the emotions. Yet it is not all drama, for is mote than the usuttl share o f com­ edy. Jn the cast George Broadhurat, the producer, has shown rare judge­ ment for Helen MacKellar brings to the part of the little French Cana­ dian girl, “Mannette Fanchard”, a. wealth of understanding of her dif­ ficult- role, and Miss MacKellar's ; Mannette is a lovable, charming, 'naive, picturesque girl of the woods. Edward Arnold, as “Burr Winton” is typical as the American of the Northwest and brings to his'part all , the urggedness of the great out­ doors. Robert Handel is excellent as a polished Englishman and Max Mit- z e l,.as Manriette’s father^ plays the French Canadian to the life. Charles T. Lewis, as the Indian, completes .the cast, small but all that could be desired. Langdon McCormick, the author, is also , the Creator of thu thrilling forest fire and the tremen­ dous blizzard. Mrs, Trimble Bradley, whose great stage directions has brought realism to the stage, hps made “The Storm” possible. THE MONTH OF MARCH.

WANTS TO GO BACK. A well known farmer stated the other day that he would not be re­ quired to pay any income tax this year and he regretted it very much, This year he has his wool, part of his wheat and much of his corn. He cannot get a good price fqn his hogs or cattle nor could he if he sold his grain. For this reason profits this year will not require an income tax payment. Our friend says he would rather* have prices Where they were in 1918 and 1919 and pay the income tax than where they are today. It Was a hard thing to pay thirty cents a pound for sugar in thosedays and tan dollars for only a common pair of shoes but high priced sugar and shoes means high prices for com and hogs, wool and wheat and one could well afford to pay the income tax to have those days .back with us. As for labor he says they were making and spending and now they are loaf­ ing and nothing to spend. IT WAS A SMALL FIRE. Frank Townsley wasgiven a good scare Monday morning when notified that the dwelling “on nis farm on the Columbus pike, formerly known as the Newton Townsley farm, occupied by Frank Powers, was burning, There was no one at home at the time other than Mrs. Powers and five small children but neighbors were soon on the scene togive assistance.
