At the Crawford.
It is not enough to say that DaVio
| Harum" was one of the most pleasing
| attractions that has come to the Crawford
this season, and the audience, which was
large. was far too small when one con-
siders the worth of the play and the play
ers There is about the play a quaint,
rare charm that fascinates. The story
OF David Harum'' lifts UP delightful
hope in all who venture to see the charm
ing play, more because humanity is Of
fered in the well-pictured characters.
David Harum" is just a peep into the
living of folk that make the world
sweeter by their living. The play is
pretty, pure, bright and wholesome
throughout The dry characteristic hu-
NOR of David Harum is irresistible 1t
comes from a good soul and consequently
can find appreciation in the best Of
hearts.
l the dramatization of the Wescott
book the authors followed the thought
and lines of the gifted writer closely, and
built the most picturesque scenes. The
glimpse of the little town of bonneville,
New York with it's bank on one side. the
town pump in the highway the Harum
home near by, and the Harum stable,
with its great sliding doors, in the back
ground, showing a decided taste for local
color William II. Turner as David
Harum, is thorough student, an ideal
player for the character. He developed
the conceit of the horse trader so clev-
erly that it was an easy matter to for
give the sin of the lies employed II the
deals into which David Harum' goes.
True, there is no particular pathos in
the play, except a little. reminiscent story
that causes a something to make a tear
come to ones eyes MIR. Turner is pos
sessed of that touch OF voice and man
ner which captivates an audience.
Throughout the play Mr. Turner won
laugh and applause which was well de-
served.
