Coming comes. Like the breath of real country air laden with the odor of new mown hay and suggesting blue skies and open stretches of country, “The Old Homestead That the patronage will be large goes without saying, for, although this will be the twenty-sixth season of “The Old Homestead,” it is still a potent magnet and bids fair to continue so for many years to come. The play itself is as familiar to the majority of theatergoers as a household word. For that reason no description of it is necessary, and all that needs to be said is that there is no purer, sweeter, or more wholesome play in existence, none which holds the mirror up to nature more truly, and none which has more real inspiration in its every line and feature than “The Old Homestead. It is simple of plot, deals with homely interest and is replete with genuine humor. Sunshine and shadow, laughter and tears, humor and pathos—these are the inevitable asso- ciates of “The Old Homestead.” It makes a direct and irresistible appeal to the human heart, for it preaches a sermon of Faith, Hope and Charity. No one seeing it was ever at a loss to explain its perennial popularity. There never was a more beautiful portrayal of home life-a more tender picture of parental love and forgive- ness—than is shown in this particular play. No wonder, therefore, that, though old, its ever new, and its popularity continues.
