We watched the boys who took part in the Uncle Tom parade at noon today with a sort of envy. It doesn’t i seem so long since we were just such j a freckle-faced, bare-footed youngster | ■ with an Uncle Tom show as the acme of our dreams. In those days we hated work and would rather fish | . and eat and 101 l and swim than weed , the garden. Our capacity for enjoyment has never been as large since then, and we feel we had a rirght to envy the kids in that parade today. A noteworthy performance of everybody’s favorite drama, “Uncle Tom's Cabin,” will be given at the Bosse opera house tonight. The production will be presented by Leon Washburn’s “Uncle Tom's Cabin” company, composed of actors and" actresses of ability. “Uncle Tom's Cabin" is over half a century old, yet people are as vividly stirred by it now as those of the civil war times, and as the ones in the next fifty years will be. A highly meritorious performance is assured.
