Most of the story is enacted in a quaint bird and animal store in a poor quarter of a great city known as “Sunshine Alley,” and the detail. of this quarter is well developed before one is introduced to the heroine and her romance. Out of the turmoil of a busy’’ city one is taken to this dirty, squalid. but | happy tenement section, and, by slow out sure steps, is led gradually into the action, so understanding the en: vironment in which the little bird- doctor was born and raised that tie sympathy with her is complete. it must \be made clédr. ‘that: this “planting” of atmosphere, isnot: ran- dom photography of a ‘picturesque setting, but carries thé’ keynote of the play carefully and insidiously; The keypote, as it happens, is the® song of a “bullfinch, for. the .bird‘ proves: the hinge on which nearly,eyery turn of the plot is made.

On the other hand, is recalled that when the second ii erty loan campaign was three fourths over only $1,199,060,000 subscriptions had been reported officially and more than $3,400,000,000 pledges rolled in during the last week. i In many communities today onl: banks were open for business.
