Jasper County Democrat, Volume 22, Number 59, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 October 1919 — Ended In Smoke. [ARTICLE]

Ended In Smoke.

I was a member of the summer colony in a small New England town. We were ever in search of novelty, and toward the end of the season decided to have a play and give the natives a ' treat. , : The whole town came, out, and (we I thought) were duly Impressed. At the , climax the hero stalked In, brandishi Jng a document, and, in a dramatic voice, cried, “I have the papers.” Then a voice from the back row bellowed, t“I have the makln’sl” That, of course, ruined our play. Needless to say, we attempted no more dramatics. —Chicago Tribune.
