STRONG CAST PLAYED
A STRONG PLAY WELL

The strong play and cast of Fine
Feathers" deserved a much better
attendance than that given it at the
Seelye last night. Action fills the
play throughout, and the company's
work at all times was excellent.
The story is builded around the
struggles of young chemical en-
gineer, Bob Reynolds, to give his
wife the ''fine feathers and dress
that she feels she must have to
make life livable. To be able to buy
fine feathers, the chemist accepts
bride from an exponent of "busi-
ness morals" and approves cement
used in a dam although the material
is inferior to that specified by con-
tract. The fine feathers are bought,
but with them come no happiness to
Reynolds, or his wife. He specu-
lates, loses all, and signs an over
draft. Prison faces him, and then
comes the news of the dams failure
to hold back flood waters. What
seems to be an intrigue between
Brand, the business man, and Mrs.
Reynolds. adds domestic troubles.
Mrs. Reynolds, Brand and Reynolds

Reynolds shoots himself.
