Corson Clarke has duplicated the east

The piece, while uproariously funny,

all vulgarity or in fact, anything that
might be construed as offensive. In
the hands of Harry Corson Clarke it Is
raised above the usual plane of farce
comedy. There is something SO quaint
in his fun making and his originality
has been so marked in every part he has
portrayed, that he has firmly establish
