A rugged. unforgiving father Of the
New England type and daughter cast
upon the world to face the arrows OF
''Silver Threads" pastoral play pre-
sented at the Academy last night. In
the simple setting of down east

move and are Of the kind familiar to
playgoers. There is the old maid aunt
and her comedy lover. who has wooed
her for years, to meet complete sue
is the sweet young village belle and
her leaning toward the villain. who Is
thwarted by q lucky chance just as
he Is about to run away with her. and
there Is also tho singing blacksmith
and the old parlor melodeon. Chief
the wronged girl. whose wanderings
finally lead her homo to the familiar
farmhouse parlOr. to be reunited with
her stern parent after ten-year alb
sence.
Silver Threads takes its title from
the song which Richard Jose, as Ben
Laurie. the blacksmith. sings. Through
out the play, references to the song touch
the memories of the people in the story,
and finally bring about the happy re-
union of father and daughter. Mr..
Jose's songs won their measure Of ap-
plause. Girl of My Dreams and
Abide with Me-" sung by him, formed
an important part in the story of the
play.
AS Ruth Laurie, the heroine Anne Hol-
linger plays the part Of young girl who
develops into grand opera singer. At
the end Of the play when she faced
Robert Osborne, the villain who betrayed
her years before, and who endeavors to
run away with Ruth's little sister Kath-
leen, Miss HolI1nger scored a triumph
Mai Wells as Eliza b. Lunch and w. D.
Stone as Toby Trotter, the old maid aunt
and her village beau, made fun for the
audience. William Reiffel as Alfred
Carey was an acceptable juvenile who
won the love Of Kathleen Laurie, played
vivaciously by Ruth Copley. The stern
father was portrayed in lifelike fashion
by L. Blanden, while John A. Miesen.
the rich and naughty villain, aroused a
wave Of righteous indignation with his
supercilious sneer.
