choosing a breezy, dainty play-nOt too
difficult for amateur, but giving ex-
cellent scope for the various players
to show a good bit of acting. Miss
Dorothy Webb as the society leader,
Mrs. De Smythe, with match making
designs was an excellent character.
Her niece, the actress. was played de-
lightfuily by Miss Attalie Gale, and
her girl friend, Mabel West was rem
dered by Miss Ruth Wood. Lord Chel-
sea was represented by Mark Smith
and Jack Earl by Arnold Thomas. Both
boys were stars in their parts The

each of which was finely rendered and
heartily encored They included piano
numbers by Harold Clifford and Miss
Violet Hewins, a soprano solo by Miss
Marion Simpson and a tenor solo by
