The note OF patriotic service which
Is sounded in Booth Harrington and

especially pertinent at the present
time.
One sees an idle young society man

Of a charming young woman from the
Middle West. The kindly humor so
characteristic of everything that
these two authors have written per-
meates the entire play.
