the first time at the Lyric yesterday aft
Torrance also saw good house 1.-THE
Missouri Girl is a story of the SHOW
me" country, and while comedy runs
through the entire piece, it is not of the
slap-stick style. Miss Johns plays the
title role and makes a winsome miss.
Fannie Hammond, as the strong minded
mother, is forcible, and w. r. Abram as
the sheriff more than suStains his reputa-
ton among the Lyrics patrons. The COM
edy parts, especially the gawky, love-
sick, shiftless maid as carried by Miss
Rodrique, are more than ordinarily laugh
provoking. The bill will continue through
the week.
