The comedy sis Marriage Fail
ure," was played by the LIE Brandt
troupe to a small audience Sunday
evening at Concordia Opera house.
Being a comedy, pure and simple, the
play is not burdened with any strong
dramatic plot, but abounds in amusing
incidents which are quite capably por-
trayed by the company. A number
of pleasing specialties are introduced,
those of Little Irene" being particu-
larly enjoyable. On the whole the

somewhat in doubt at this time, al
though the east is putting forth her
best effort for victory.
