1t is an open question as to whether
there has been any drama written that
contains the wide variety of emotions
that are the principal features of this
unusual play. 1t is impossible to de-

of the qualities of this extraordinary
play which differentiates it from all
others.
Mr.. Lynch has secured the play at
a high royalty, and several members
of the company will have unusually
strong dramatic parts especially Miss
Diana Dewar, who will portray the
leading emotional role. Mr.. Lynch

the downtown districts the firemen are
likely to find the streets blocked by
automobiles and the fire hydrants in

too near them. 1t might be a matter
of several minutes before they could
fire. Minutes are valuable in case of
a fire. too.

I'm these days you will find auto

right at the curb. II we can't get
the ladders there we cannot hoist them.
