tomorrow night. In this piece Charles
Sumner, the author, has built a play
which is said to De decidedly worth
while. No real comedy would justify
it's designation if there were not in it
several elements of tragedy. 1t is his
knowledge of human nature that
makes Mr.. Sumner weave his comedy
and tragedy so dexterously. This means
that he gives a true value to he hui
man emotions. The story concerns
Ruth, a young girl of IS with unusual
ability as an artist. The death of her
father and illness of her mother neces-
states her being left alone in New
York without even the guidance of her
fiance, a capable doctor. She falls
victim to the magnetism of youth and
Mr.. Sumner portrays the regeneration
power of a pure, intense love in virile
fashion. 1t is said to be beautifully
staged and cast of we'll known play
ers will depict this story of life. The
cast includes Charles w. Dingle, Leo
Lindhart, Arthur Capplen. John Grey,
Agnes Lee, Ray Kehm and Ann
TaSker.
Forty editions were made of "Laven-
der and Old Lace" the late Myrtle
Reeds story which has been made
into a play. The book is still favor
tie, though making its appearance over
10 years ago and the announcement
that it has been converted into play
is sure to be received with interest by
thousands. Lavender and Old Lace"
tells =. pretty love story in a fragrant

sea that washes the New England
coast, it has bit of the ruggedness of
the shores, it has a fower-iike touch
that appeals to the sentiment that
10 ,ges in every heart.
That it would make a captivating
play was certain, not a strident drama
