MARY MANNERING
GIVEN An OVATION
GREAT STAR WHO COMES HERE
THURSDAY NIGHT, SCORED A
HIT IN SPOKANE - CAPACITY
HOUSE GREETED HER IN A
MANS WORLD.

Spokane Chronicle: Mary Manner
ing established herself in the hearts
Of Spokane playgoers Tuesday night
as one Of the most finished artists ever
seen in this city. While she has all
ways been a prime favorite here,
never before has she appeared to such
good advantage as in A Mans World,
her present vehicle.
The play itself is Of a nature to
command the highest praise. 1t
abounds with clever lines. intensely
dramatic situations and striking NOR
ais, but is at the same time logical
and altogether likeable.
The old-time problem of the setting
of widely varied moral standings for
the two sexes and the question Of
whether the same requirements should
be demanded of each, is taken as the
nucleus of this most interesting play.
Is Play of Morals.
Through the giving up of her love,
because of ideals from which she re-
fuses to swerve to the slightest degree,
Frank Ware, played by Mary Manner
ing, depicts the true spirit of self
sacrifice to accomplish ones moral
convictions. Mary Mannering handles
the emotional lines in delightful fash
ion, and also prevents many tear
through her ability to intersperse
comedy lines and lighter emotions in
truly artistic manner.
Mark Short, in the role u Riddle
handles the child role which is so i'm
portant to the success Of the produc"
ton. in a delightful way, and Charles
Wyngate, as Fritz Bohn, the German
musician, triumphs in one of the most
interesting characters of the piece.
Helen Ormsbee, as Clara Cakes, and
Alphonz Ether, as Malcolm Gaskell,
the leading male character are both
exceptionally good. The latter admir-
ably portrays the man of the world
role and is most convincing in the
most difficult OF parts.
A large and fashionable audience
rendered Miss Mannering an ovation
at the initial production.
