P~YING THe PENALTY
 IS PLAY OF TODAY
Opening Production by Whiteside Strauss Co. at The Davis Theatre.

One Of the feature plays 1n the rep ertoire of the Whiteside Strauss com psny is Paying the Penalty, a great po- iticai play, that will be offered at the Davis theatre Monday.
 Paying the Penalty vas originally produced in New York and had long run of over a year. Boston, PhiladeI- phiRs Chicago all pronounced it the best comedy drama of the season
 Paying the Penalty is sure to please all tastes, for while the comedy ele- ment predominates. there is an ex- ceIlent plot and it is teeming with heart throbs.
 A story that teaches strong moral lesson but in such a way that with a happy ending one leaves the theatre with 8 feeling of peace and a reaIiza- ton that the man who is all hero or villain has no place in the modern play. The play is a slice of human life and the audience lives and feels with each of the characters and votes it an evening well spent
 The production gives wide scope for An elaborate display of costumes and stage embellishments and Manager Dan Babcock has spared no detail in making this piece one of the features of his large repertoire.
 It is worthy of notice that this will be the first time that Paying the Pen ally has ever been presented by a stock company for it has never been offered at less than the two dollar price.
 The advance sale for Monday eve ning's performance Is now open at the theatre box office.
