THE GARRICK

There is nothing more charming nor
more inspiring that the higher love
of a young girl for a man-the kind of
devotion that makes her love him,
silently and with never a thought of
her affection being returned, while the
foolish, Needless man pursues another
woman not worthy of his thoughts.
This is the role Of Friend Patience in
The Reward of Patience, featuring
dainty Louise Huff. Patience has never
been outside Of Amity Center, until
the death Of her father compels her to
seek employment. She has been
fascinated by Robert Penfield, a New
York engineer who has been in charge
Of some Construction work at Amity
Center. Moved by pity of the girl
Penfield has his mother employ her as
a social secretary. Her gratitude
ripening into love.
Later developments and her sacrifice
makes this production most appealing
The Reward Of Patience Is showing
at the Garrick today and tomorrow.
