What Women Will Do"

One of the best attractions
booked to appear here this season
is Holden brothers beautiful pro-
duction, what Women viii
Do" which comes to the AUDITOR
ium, Wednesday, November 10.
Judging from the unanimous
praise this charming play has re-
ceived from all sides and the enor,
NOUS support and patronage
awarded it, the above statement
seems unnecessary. There has
never been a love story more beau
tifully told or deIicateIy worked
out, and coming from the pen OF
such a successful playwright as
Harry Jackson, the well-known
author, places this play far above
the average melOdrama.
