up OF Bernice Phalmon AZ Joan Carr.
Miss Hubert as Mrs. Carr. Esther

Helen Hilton, an Oklahoma City girl,
who has Joined the company, as Caro-.
line Carr. There are kleptomanlacs
In the family and around II evolves
the comedy that keeps the audience
pleased and laughing all the time. The
entire action Of the piece takes place
In the home OF the Carr family. The
thief and his sweetheart plan TO rob
the family and when anything Is miss.
ing the kleptOmRniacs fear they have
taken II themselves. The parts taken
by Mr.. Patterson aud Miss Hall are
Of the greatest interest, Of course. and
somehow there is feeling OF relief
at the end when the thief and his
sweetheart escape. stop Thief" will
please the Overholser audiences better
than anything Manager Marks has put
on. II has the action that Is 30 neces
sary to hold interest The same play
