pected. for no one who secs It fails
to wonder at its Indescribable, gigan
tic scenes No one fails to appreci
ate It.
Much of the story has already been
told through the press, hut actually

"THE SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS."
"The woods and the hills are a part
of God’s handiwork. From this play
you may. la some measure, feel their
Influence—My play is the story of a
man who took the trail that leads to
the lower ground, and a woman, and
how she found her way to the higher
sunlit fields.”
These are Harold Roll Wright’s pre
liminary remarks regarding his drana
tl/.ation of his celebrated novel, "Ths
Shepherd of the Hills," which comes
to the Grand next Tuesday, matines
and evening for Us second annual en
gagement.
He has written a story of rough
times in the Ocnrks, days before the
coming of the railroad, the period ol
bushings, house-raisings, rough and
ready settlement of disputes with tho
fists, laborious farming, highway rob-'
beries and so on. It Is a "red blood"
virile play, yet one that has a deep
message. It is filled with unique
characters and Incidents. The fact that
the novel, from which the play waa
made has held the record for five
years ns the leading “best seller," Is
ample proof thnt it is what the public
wants and the play has proven to hs
one of the most successful dramatic
offerings of last season.
