SUNDAY. ! "The Littlest Rebel" has all the up-i Kfiing dramatic powers within its core that have from time immemorial built' good theatres and heaped poetic treas-L-res for the stage. ! The story of the play concerns little; Virgie Carey, daughter of a confed- j erate scout, who lives near Richmond : and is a child of the CIvJl war. The: beauty of this little daughter of the! South blossoms forth in Edward '

Peple s most exquisite style of portrait. She sees her mother fade and die, she starves and wins and has mature ideas with tendril flashes of

thought made grown-up by the shock;

and sorrows of war.
