BRADLEY THEATER, PUTNAM.
May Robson in The Clever Woman.

May Robson in The Clever Woman.
 May Robson, queen of American comediennes, comes to the Bradley theater Putnam, Friday, Jan. 30 iI1 a new comedy offering from the pen of James Forbes. This announcement is sufficient to warrant the expectation of most enjoyable evenings enter tainnent. The title of Air- Forbes lat est effort is The Clever Woman. the production of which introduces 3. new producing manager in the person of William Moore Patch of Pittsburg.
 The name of May Robson brings to mind immediately her former comedy success. The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary. which enjoyed long runs on both sides of the Atlantic. In The Clever Woman Miss Robson has a role that is equally well fitted to her h1strion1c powers, and one that is as equally laughter compelling as was the for mer. She says The Clever Woman N the best vehicle she ever had.
 The story MT. Forbes has evolved in The Clever Woman is most human. The tale has been enacted in American life time and again, but its telling at the hands of this gifted writer has i'm measurably added to it's value. Humor and pathos are blended in a fashion that bespeaks of the knowledge and experience gained in the writing of s,.ch successes as The Chorus Lady, The Travelling Salesman, and The Com muters.
 The story is that of a newly rich western family which moves on from Omaha for the social and financial con quest of New York The father' has plans for the marriage of his only son to a society girl. The son falls in love with dads stenographer, and when the father discharges the secretary on suspicion, the son follows. The gem eraIship of The Clever Woman (May Robson) in settling the strained rela- tions between father and son and bringing order out of threatened do- mestic chaos, thereby putting into use her keen sense of hunlor and diploma cy. furnishes a thrilling and laughter filled evenings pleasure.
