1 like the note I het from home
that's written every Sunday,
Relatint home occurrences that hap-
pened since last'Monday;
The best of all I like to hear, just
how my mother loves me,
spirit of the folks at home, up
hilly places shove me,
I like the notes I get from friertda
who claim I'm not forgotten,
f the '
'Phe. thinners, i col from
e y u
home are even net so -rotten;.
To, contemplate the old home town,
Provides. my life with leaven,
And there's another little note that's
"a little bit of heaven."
The mail just now delivered, the in-
spiration for these lines
Comes from the fact the I've just
received a copy of The Times;
In paying tribute to the notes that
make life feel so playful
I'm really' forced to admit, there is -
11't one more faithful.
I've read it, every article, I haven't
'missed a word,
Names of persons mentioned of
'whom I've never heard,
I take an interest in them • all, 3.
wouldn't dare to slight 'em,
To connect thein up with Exeter is
enough to make me like 'ei1,.
I've even read the vendors adds, the
auction' sales included,
Quack doctors cannot make the
claim their notice I've eluded;
Quite able am I to recall when
thought of home gave pain,
I've turned the 'paper inside oat and
read it o'er again.
It is one of the ties I get from
home I wouldn't like to sever,
The yesterdays that she recalls; may
I forget them •never,
A little prayer; may I always, with
bonne and town be smitten,
And never lose this sentiment till
niy epitaph is written.

Music adds,to "The 'Shepherd of the
Hill."
Harold' Bell Wright clings to the
tunes of yesterday in arranging mu-
sical accomplishments. The Shep-
herd of the Hills is a striking film
drama. Mr. Wright has defied all
standards of motion picture produc-
tion. He has transferred to the
screen the pages of his fantods novel
chapter by chapter exactly as they
are in the -story form. It is more.
than a masterpiece. It is an inspir-
ation. This production played in
Massey Hall, Toronto, Christmas and
New Years' week.. 1VTr. Wright has
produced probably a unique produc-
tion within the memory of even the
rmost ancient play goers. This coin-
:pany- carries their own music with
an added attraction, A Kid Circus
