KING DRAMATIC COMPANY,
The following strong notice in
reference to the King Dramatic
Company, which comes to Winder
October 29, dO and dl, is taken
from a South Carolina paper where !
the company appeared last week.
“The King Dramatic Company;
has been playing at the Opera
House this week to large and en
thusiastic audiences.
The company is a strong one and
the plays given have pleased the
people beyond their expectations.
Mr. King, who takes the leading
role, is a very versatile artist and it
is wonderful to see how completely
he adapts himself to new roles.
The entire company is excellent
and play their respective parts in a
masterful manner.
The attendance all during the
week demonstrates louder than
words the popularity of the com
pany.”
Made Bia Hit.
The St. Augustine Evening Re
cord of March G, where the company
played recently, says:
“The King Dramatic Company
entertained a well pleased audience
at the Genovar Theatre last evening.
Ihe play teems with exciting inci
dents, which were * portrayed with
splendid effect. Ohas. King a-> the
shadow’ of misterious criminal, is
an artist of rare talent, and imper
sonated the character withgju abili
ty that carried his audience heart
and soul into the plot. The sup
port is exceptionally strong and
every member of the company is
admirably adapted to the role as
signed him or her. Judging by the
merit of last night’s performance,
the company will be greeted by a
large house during the remainder

THE WHEATFIELD.
Where the Billowing Golden Wave*
Stretch From Sky to Sky.
Take a look at the wheatfield that
has been brought up to perfection as
It stands, yellow as gold, with the
sheen of the sea, billowing from sky
line to sky line like an ocean of gold,
where the wind touches the rippling
wave crests with the tread of invisi
ble feet, in California, in Oregon, in
Washington, iu Dakota, in the Cana
dian northwest, you may ride all day
on horseback through the wheat fields
without a break in the flow of yellow
heavy headed grain—no fence lines,
no meadow lauds, no shade trees,
no knobs and knolls and hills and hol
lows of grass or black earth through.
From dawn till dark, from sunrise, in
a burst of fiery splendor over the
prairie horizon, to sundown, when the
crimson thing bangs like a huge shield
of blood In the haze of a heat twi
light, you may ride with naught to
break the view between you and the
horizon but wheat—wheat. It is like
the gold fields. It goes to your head.
You grow dizzy looking at it. You rub
your eyes. Is it a mirage? The bil
lowing yellow waves seem to be
breasting the very sky. You look up.
The sky is there all right with th,e
black mote of a meadow lark sailing
the azure sea. He drops liquid notes
of sheer mellow music down ou your
head, does that meadow lark, and that
gives you back your perspective, your
sense oD amazing reality. You are
literally, absolutely, really, in the
midst of a sea of living gold. It Is, you
and cot the lark that lK_Jbe mote.
You begin to reel as If your special
mote might be a beam that would get
lost In infinity if you stayed there long,
and so you ride on ad on, and some
more on, and by and by come out of
-the league long, fenceless fields with
an odor in your nostrils that isn’t ex
actly like incense—it's too fugitive, too
fine, too sublimal of earth. It is aro
matic, a sort of attar of roses, the im
prisoned fragrance of the billions upon
billions of wheat flowers shut up in
the glumes of the heavy headed grain
there. And that’s the odor of the
wheat.—Agnes C. Laut in Outing Mag
azine.
