He has qvercome that ob-! stacle by soliciting the movié® theater impresarios and the various Dexter Fellows for free passes. At least twice a week, the children of Brooklyn are the guests of Mr. Hydeman and the management at a lavish cinema theater, when thé circus comes to town, the owners of the Big Tent automatically set aside a couple of hundred seats for Mr. Hydeman's wards. No one-in any branch of the amusement world ever has refused this elderly humanitarian’s young charges admittance to their shows. A retired: merchant, Mr. Hydeman has few ‘other interests.

Rusty, an amiable (if somewhat unmanageable) cocker spaniel, had a good reason for being there, since he was on the verge of being adopt ed by Katherine Dean, who assists

“Well, it seems that Rusty gravitates toward star dressing rooms by natural instinct. So the first thing he did after thie doorman let him in, was to make a beeline for Miss Lawrenc®s room and there, without so much as the formality of an introduction, made himself at home
