The Right Start
"It would never do to start the New Year without a contribution to Straight From the Shoulder," says our good friend, Guy C. Sawyer, who keeps them coming to Town Hall, Chester, Vermont, and keeps reports coming to help the boys do the same in their theatres, "I am very glad to see the name of a Maine man (E. N. Prescott) added to the supporters of this department. Maine is my home state and I am doubly glad, for one, to say, 'Welcome, Mr. Prescott, of Union, Maine.' "
Fellows, we want to get as close together as the stretch of this big world will let us. Talk here — to each other and about each other — and about good and poor pictures, too !
