The Evening Republican.

“The Rosary.” Every woman thinks she knows how to keep alive the love of her husband. Wonder if the girls in this city know that art? Sometimes it is said they don’t. At any rate, they will know after they witness a performance of “The Rosary,” which is coming to the Ellis Theatre Thursday, Jan, 15th. In “The Rosary” there are three distinct love stories. The principal love affair is that of Bruce and Vera Tilton. This husband and wife love each other with their whole hearts. She is a devout woman, but he is a born atheist. Beisg a man of such business interests, Mr. Tilton neglects his home,* and Vera resorts to the green-eyed monster 'to bring her husband back to her. She begins a flirtation with a man named Kensand Wright. Circumstances bring Mr. Wright to the Tilton home, where he falls in love with Vera’s sister, Alice. One night, when he and Alice had arranged for a secret elopment, Vera, entorng the room as the couple are leavng through an open wndow, is discovered by her husband. The result is two broken hearts. Therefore* jealousy is an evil, and not an advisable way of keeping a man interested. The second love story It between Kathleen O’Connor and Charley Harrow,’ Kathleen is a little Irish girl, who believes that the man she will marry must know the Irish history thoroughly. Charley knows nothing of Irish history, so Kathleen uses the simplest of language, dress and actions. Charley it attracted to her by her simpleness, so it Is shown that the simplest truth attracts the man of the world and keeps him interested. In the love story between Lesura and Skeeters, the audience finds that opposition to a man’s vanity makes him only the more interested in the pursuit of the one thing upon which he prides himself greater than all else. During the scenes Skeeters is very proud of his ability to tell stories, but it isn’t until alter an orignal system is employed that Skeeters succeeds in getting Lesura to laugh. All of this love is in ‘The Rosary,” and with a competent oast * presenting it, the play is worth, attendng. COAL. We have Just received another oar of the celebrated White Ash ooal. - J. C.

Popular Athletic Director Staffs Football Sqnad and Guests - With Goose et aL No matter what your prejudices in the past have been about football you would have changed your mind if you could have witnessed the 1913 squad of the Rensselaer high school and the members of the faculty identified (with athletics, and a few fortunate guests, as they surrounded a magniflceni; table and tried to eat everything that Head Coach Harry Parker and his wife had provided for them. The way to the heart is said to /be through the stomach, but the eulogistic tone of the guests toward Coach Parker proved that their hearts had found reason to praise him long before the goose dinner was planned. - Mrs. Parker was assisted in the preparation, of the dinner by Mrs. Dean, wife of Superintendent Dean, and the guests in addition to the entire squad of 1913 included Sup erintendent Dean, Principal Sharp, Prof. Coe, Rev. J. C. Parrett, Assistant Opaches John Morgan, of Butler, and Jay Nowels, of Hanover, Elmer Wilcox and Oeorge H. Healey. All of the dinner guests were seated at a long table in the commodious dining room at the Parker home. Beneath the large dome that shaded the electric lights the

football used during the fall was .mounted on a silver pedestal. It was discolored by use and bore the >cars of conflict, hut the boorish roughness of its season of strife had been softened by its girdling with baby ribbon and. it spoke an eloquent comparison of the gridiron and dinner occasions and showed the diversified possibilities of American youths. Prom the dome hung the large letters *R. H. S/’, painted red and black and there radiated alternately red and black baby ribbons from the sides to the ends of the table, while a wide band of red bordered with black girdled the center of the table. , It was an arrangement of splendid taste and added to the feast that kept the guests busy for the next hour and a half. Oyster cocktails, roast goose, mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet potatoes/ spiced peaches, grape juice, salted nuts, celery, pickles, pie and probably we have -forgotten several things, at least. The supply and variety was so abundant that every one was forced to call enough. Speech making followed and Cap tain McCarthy briefly reviewed the past season. Paul Miller presented Coach Parker with a fine new sweater coat, of R, H. S. colors and a big “R” on the breast. Mr. Parker at once substituted it for his coat and in a feeling manner he thanked the football team for the remembrance. Near the close of the dinner Mr. Parker presented the football to Captain McCarthy., An election of captain and assistant captain for the 1914 team followed. Will was elected cap tain and Sam Duvall assistant. During the speech making, in which all took part, Rev. Parrett acted as toastmaster. A flashlght picture of all'was taken at the dinner table and it will probably adorn the 1914 Chaos.

COACH PARKER HOST TO HUSKY ATHLETICS

“TAKE IT WITH YOU” MICHIGAN CITY PLAN

Outgoing Officials of That -Town Took Everything That Was Loose—Got Roasted. Michigan City News. * Had the decorations on the walls-, of the city offices been loose they/ would probably have gone with the other things that have simultaneously disappeared with the outgoing old city administration. No one but those who are meeting the deplorable conditions can realize how. contemptible a little defeat can make some people who caqnot rise above hatred and spite for the rivals who have defeated them in the good will expression of the people. Words will not do the subject justice; and all the more is the surprise that in some instances it comes from sources where such conditions had been least expected. Every city officer who retired from public office in this city the past week should have had that same courtesy, the same gentility and the same broad-minded intelligence which characterizes civilization and aids in the uplift of mankind everywhere and should have done unto his successor as he would have had his predecessor do unto him when he assumed office—should have extended to his successor his hearty aid and support in getting rightly started in the duties of the office front which the one has just retired and upon which the other is just entering. These are the affairs of the public, not private nor personal. People have a right to ask, that at least the rules which common courtesy demands be observed by those who have served in public office and drawn from the public treasury the emoluments thereof.
