Miss Robson in this play needs
hardly any announcement, for her
portrayal Of trim. rural lady, and
her making into a modern woman of
modish mien. is too we'll known.
Suffice that from country bred wo-
man she becomes a fond, indulgent
matter of-fact, sensible person with
a little SPORTY but not too gay a
finish. But the play-well, it is said
to surpass both The Chorus Lady"
and 1.-THE Travelling !; Salesman in
laugh-proyoking qualities, and Miss
Robson in sweet, wholesome old
fashioned, refreshing way, gives to
Mrs. Matt,' in "The Making Over
Of Mrs. Matt" the new James

ity, with the result, that after view
ing the Forbes play you will leave

The play will be superbly staged,
