OTIS SKINNER REPEATS
BALZAC PLAY SUCCESS
Both He and Audience Enjoy
The Honor of the Family
Revived After Many Years

II was a happy and prosperous thought for
otis Skinner to revive, after eight years, a
play which had been one of the greatest of
his successes, "The Honor of the Family"
ana nothing of that honor had been lost.
tor the laying away in camphor OF Colonel
Bridau's suit kept II mothproof and At, and
as Mr.. Skinner (still slim enough to wear the
suit) aptly remarked in his curtain speech.
the ht-thanks to Mr.. Hoover"
The revival of THE Honor OF the Family"
dramatized by Emil Fabre and adapted by
Paul Potter, opened last night to a capacity
house at the Broad Street Theatre It was
the good od-fashioned comedy drama, and
the audience went to 1t like home and
mother"
The audience" to quote Mr. Skinner
again proved itself success and was ito
be congratulated the fine manner in
which it played it's part" II was hard to
decide which enjoyed the part most. the audi
ence or the actor. The latter caught the
audience and kept It with him until his final
feat, when the vixen, having lost her lover,
had about decided to make the best Of 1t and
marry the colonel, and he, with magnificent
sarcasm. turned her out into the night.
The play is built on Balzacs novel, '"The
Bachelors Establishment and tells Of an
old man who had been ensnared by a young
saddler's daughter, whom he had taken into
his home. She had gained such a hold on
him that he willed his money to her and was
about to sign away his property. His sister
appeals to him for aid to save her son,
colonel OF the Little Corporal's defunct army.
from prison. Under the influence of the vixen
he refuses.
Complcating matters, younger lover
pays the vixen lFlora Brazier) attentions in
the old mans home. He and the girl plan
to get all the money when the nephew APP
pears on the scene. having been acquitted by
the courts and proceeds, for "the honor of
the family" TO save his snvelng uncle.
Mr.. SINNERS part, as a rollickins, bluster-
ing soldier of the great Napoleon, was as
usual extremely we'll portrayed. A real
French colonel It was that Mr.. Skinner
reproduced. He was, in fact. the only
Frenchman iD~>the play. The supporting
company was capable. but the character work
and the enunciation were far more English
than French.
Robert Harrison, as Jean Jacques Rouget
the senile uncle, did good bit Of work
Commandant Max Gilet, Fora's lover. as
portrayed by Alexander Onslow, was pleas
ing study.
The leading woman, Evelyn Warden, was
n pretty foil to Mr.. SINNERS delightful
v6gares. Some clever character work was
done by Harry Burkhard as Kouski, the
Colonel's cossack orderly and general facto-
tum.

HARRINGTON BOOK PLAY
WINS FAVOR AT GARRICK
'iPenrod' Calls Back to Mem.
ory Old Delights of
Boyhood

II you like to turn back TO your boyhood
and review again the real happy days un-
marred by serious trouble then you will find
"Penrod" delightful treat This comedy of
boy life, based on the Booth Harrington
stories and adapted for the stage by Edward
e. Rose. was presented for the first time in
this city last evening at the Garrick.
Those persons who yearn for intellectual
thrills and hunger for subtle epigrammatic
lines might be bored by 'Penrod," but others
who enjoy real character pictures and at.
mosphere from human life will give a unani-
nous vote in favor OF this unpretentiou.
little comedy.
Penrod Schofleld and Sam williams are
two normal boys filled with the youthful
spirit Of adventure They like the rough and
ready outdoor life, hate fancy looking kids
and overdressed adults. Penrod and his
chum Sam decide to become detectives They
open headquarters in the Schofield barn and
press two negro boys into service as assist
ants. Although the juvenile detectives have
nothing to detect, Penrod, who takes a dis
like to Herbert Dade. one Of his sister Mar
garet's beaux, believes there is something
about Dade that isn't Just right He Is en-
couraged in this suspicion by a remark made
by his father, Henry Schof1eld, who once said
in a spirit OF fun that Dade was a horse
thief.
The youthful sleuths follow Dade con-
stantly, and as he really is n man with a
shady past, the shadowng unnerves him. The
attention of the police is attracted to Dade
through the young detectives. and he finally
fees town to escape arrest for past msde eds
Andrew Lawlor, who appears to be not
more than ten years old, is n thoroughly en-
joyable true-to- mature Period, and his little
sleuth partner, Richard Ross, Is equally real
The two boys corraled the honors
Edmund Elton, once favorite here in
stock gave the role OF Penrod's father the
character force and light comedy touches
which 1t deserved. Equally excellent was
the portrayal of Mary Schoheld by Adora An
drews
Incidentally one of the big hits of the
comedy was the bashful lover overfowing
with ambition, of Paul Kelly. Irene Haisman
truly presented the varying moods of the
