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.

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. t His Mentor.
