NANCY. WYNNE TELLS OF OPENING'
OF SHAKESPEAREANA AT ACADEMY
Shakespeare Tercentenary to Be Celebrated by an Exhi
bition of Famous Books, Paihtings. and Other Ob
jects Relating to the Poet and Playwright
DO YOU suppose any one thinks thero
are not enough As or Es in Shake
i apeare's name and so has added a few
extra As and called the exhibit of things
that aro curious pertaining to the Im
mortal 'William j Shakespeare with ana
attached. Bo that as It may, of course
we all know It Is the proper thins to
refer ihusly to the exhibit, and that the
ana Is Just what tells us what It Is; but
remembering my struggles In my, school
days to know whether It was Sha'kspere,
Shakspcar, Shakespeare or what In the
world was the correct way of spelling
his natho, I wondered, you know. Now,
It seems, It haa been decided once -for
all and it has two As and three Es.
After this long dissertation It might bo
well to say that the exhibition starts
this ev.enlng at 8:30 o'clock at the Penn
sylvania Academy of tho Flno Arts,
Broad and Cherry streets, and lasts un
til May 21.
So everything pertaining to Shake
speare that It has Veon .possible to bor
row from tho various treasure trqvca of
our many collectors has been loaned
and a rare treat Is In store for us 'all.
