i ago Such is the esteem in which the
writer of the sweet and wholesome
American play of home life is held.
it took Jessie ISonsteele eight
years to secure the consent of the Al-
cott family to dramatize “Little Wo-
men.'’ Everything about the book
was naturally hallowed to the Al-
cott's. Aunt Louisa’s masterpiece was
more than a financial heritage to
them. It was a legacy and shared
with the family traditions and tne-
ories too sacred to be presented to
the public But Miss Bonsteele ti-
nally convinced them (hat the spirit
in which she wished to produce the
play was one of enure reverence in
presenting this play to the ctoautau-
qnaipatrons the spirit of purity and
wholesomeness which permeate the
story will be in no wise lesesned.
There are fourteen people pre-
senting this drama at the Waxaha-
hachie chant utqua including nearly
all who scored stun a tremendous
success in its production in N'ew York
