A SONS DEVOTION

An appreciatiye audience greeted
the rendition OF "A Sons Devotion" F"
at the Utabna Theater last evening.
The play itself is one that arouses
yely close interest and makes up one
of the strongest dramas which has
appeared at the Utahna this season.
Mr. Fred Moore displays his splen-
did versatility In the three-fold part
OF Tom Roark, consisting OF the de-
voted son who knelt at the side OF
his dead mother, swearing retrlbution
on her slayer, the black-garbed witch
who appeared as a spectre haunting
the steps Of the guilty murderer. and
tine awkward, unsophiticated profes'
sor who spied upon his trail
And Pearl Either Moore was no less
interesting In her rendition OF Ruby
Norton. The hearty, musical laugh
che gives the dazed professor is fine
and decidedly contagious. Her full.
clear quality Of voice with its excel
lent articulation is an appreciated fav-
or to the audience.
But there were others who did excel
lent work. worthy of special mention.
Hiss Zoan Storm as Reta Norton and
Ira E Earle as John Norton were
certainly we'll rendered. Also Frank
H. Whittier and Annie Ince made ex-
cellent brother and sister in every
thing except their looks. Indeed, the
play throughout is well cast and the
performance a decided success.
