MAY ROBSON
AT THE GRAND
SATURDAY

The average theater-goer has seen
world of tragedies and drama Of
the lurid type of the untra-sensa-
tional, and probably no two persons
would hold the same opinion of their
questionable influence. There is
rarely a dissenting voice on the
merit Of a good and wholesome COM
edy, and to laugh is to be good-to
be satisfied and then remember, A
play in which there is judicious
blending Of pathos and humor inter-
woven and no matter how generous
the opportunity may be for the de-
velopment of characters, there must
be an embodiment Of grace and nat
uralness. One might cite as an in
stance the character of "Granmum"
as portrayed by May Robson in her
new play, "A Night Out" in which
she will appear at the Grand April
20. The narrative deals in part in
illustrating hereditary influence upon
character. Two young men, Jack and
Paul, are full of life and are ambi-
tious to see the world beyond the So
cial barrioade established by a Puri-
tanical mother, resolve to outwit her
rigid supervision, but are discovered
by their grandmother-a generous,
broadminded old lady, who loves
them devotedly yet is determined to
investigate the places they visit and
pass judgment. The boys consent to
take her along-they lave the house
at night, taking Granmum to a ia
nous cafe. Granmum has no idea Of
the character of the place, until 1t is
raided by the police. Then she real
ICES her position and bribes po-
liceman by offering him reward
for the return Of her brooch, which
she has lost during the excitement.
Upon this incident, Miss Robson and
Mr.. Dazey have constructed the play
or rather upon the many absurd and
laughable incidents that follow, so
in its entirety, 1t will appeal to those
who like clean-cut humor The SER
ious vein Of the play is hinged upon
the loss of a government bond from
Granmum's safety deposit locker in
the local bank, and the two boys are
suspected by the detectives, but Gran
mum refuses to believe either of
them guilty, and her opinion is later
sustained by the tracing Of the bond
to the actual thief-this event dram
atlcally presented is the only touch
Of seriousness. The rest is all come
dy Miss Robson will be assisted by
Jack Storey, Paul Decker, George
Hall, Lewis p. Parmenter, John
Rowe, c. Gwynne, Eddie Leaman,
Faye Cusick, Lotta Blake, Edith Con-
rad, Louise Rand and Margaret Bo-

forerunner Of many serious diseases.

your food lies like heavy lump in

precious old mothers in Israel, died
at her home in this city this morning

some time.

sweeter-natured soul ever lived than
she, and she was loved by all who
knew her in life, and now that she is
gone, there are hundreds who rise up
and call her blessed. She leaves no

tives.
The funeral will be held from her
late home tomorrow morning at 9
O'Clock, with her pastor, Rev. Glenn

NAVAsOTA HIGH SCHOOL
DEFEATS BRYAN BOYS

Yesterday afternoon the Bryan High
School played Navasota High School
football game on the Navasota
grounds and were beaten by score
of 20 to 0. The Bryan boys played a
steady game, but were seriously hand
icapped by the nature of the field,
which was very rough and overgrown
with weeds and grass, which proved
SO slippery to the boys who were not
used to it that many were forced to
play in stocking feet. The Bossey
twins starred for Nayasota, while
Evans, Wicker and Osborne played
the strongest game for Bryan.
The return game will be played here
next Friday afternoon, and a good
game is expected, for the boys will
put in the intervening time in
strengthening their weak points.
