Miss Davis Scores Hit in "Under the
Greenwood Tree."

Miss Davis Scores Hit in "Under the
Greenwood Tree."
The English comedy, Under the
Greenwood Tree" with Miss Florence
Davis in the leading role, came to the
Odeon for the first time Thursday
night pleasing most of the rather
small audience and dehghting some.
The play is distinctly an English one,
written about the character OF Mary
Hamilton, who is in the lime light OF
the story thru all Of the four acts. This
character was most ably portrayed by
Miss Davis, who is an exceedingly
clever and vivacious comedienne. she
carried the part with a vigor and grace
that was distinctive.
Briefly told the story is one OF Mary
Hamilton, wealthy orphan who is
peste-ed to death by the suitors Tor her
hand, and the claims upon her wealth..
Tired OF the life she. with her secre-
tary finds Gypsy band and takes up
the simple life in the forest. Their
place of abode is q movable van. Ihe
Young lord who owns the forest IN
which they were sojourning comes to
order them off the place. Instead OF do
ing so he falls in love with Miss Ham
ilton. who poses as a gypsy, and mar
ries her, after discovering her identity.
The play has the usual happy stage
ending.
The play has aptly beeen called
fairy tale of the woods and 1t Is so
light, airy and fairy that this charac-
terization holds true. There is much
real humor in the situations. and Some
OF the dialog is brilliantly clever and
funny.
Miss Davis supporting players were
in the main good. Noticeably so was
Miss Theodore Dudley, VINO took the
part of Peggy Ingledew. Mary's secre-
tary and Mr.. Dexter. who was caste as
J. G.. NJ Hylton. Esq, who becomes
Miss Hamdlton's f1usband-to-b in the
last act. Some of the other parts we're
not so we'll portrayed as they might
have been.
"Under the Greenwood Tree" is a
clever comedy and well worth seeing

fellow on the other team
slammed out dandy. Away over
the head of the left fielder 1t went,
and, for moment, u seemed as if
it would clear the fence. But it
didn't; it actually struck knot

Our left fielder was a fellow
who thought quick. In moment
he was at the fence and had the
ball. He shot it to the shortstop,
and the latter sent it singing into
the mitt of the catcher. Every man
of hat trio was a player. The
catcher pinned the runner just as
he was sliding for the home plate
The umpire called: You're out
