'PARL0R, BEDROOM
 AND BAT|H," 1" NOTED
 FARCE, IS COMING
Record Laugh-PrOducer at Jefferson Friday and Sat-
 urday, With Saturday Matinee

Do women prefer Don Juan to Sir Galahad? Do they prefer the man with the rosy past to the man with the roseate future? No matter which slde of the controversy you take you will find delight in "Parlor Bedroom and Bath" the sensational New York farce hit which A. H. Woods will present at the Jefferson theatre on Friday and Saturday nights and Saturday matinee, direct from a run of seven months at the Republic theatre, New York and an engagement of four months in Chicago "Parlor Bedroom and Bath" described as a new tale of wayside inn is a fresh, flippant farce comedy in three acts by c. w. Bell and Mark Swan. and has the rare distinction of having been the biggest comedy hit in both New York and Chicago in the same season. on the occasion of its first production. The play is said to contain one of the most ingenious plots ever embodied in a comedy, and one that affords unlim- ited opportunities for broad and rol- licking fun both in dialogue and situa
 tion. As much of the plot as has been revealed concerns the romantic esca- pades of a mild and shy young hus- band who seeks to live up to his wifes opinion of him as gay Lothario. He e1opes with another mans wife, re- pairs to a lonely wayside inn, hires a private suite, and to his amazement finds himself surrounded by a bevy of lovely but uninvited women. The com plications that ensue promise an even ing of as rare and hilarious enter tainment as the title of the play sug- gests. The splendid company selected by MT. Woods includes Eda Ann Luke, Homer Barton Marguerite Risser, Noette Aimes. EleanHr Martin, Gertrude Webster, Violet Barney, Frank F.. Moore. Ryder Keane, George Williams and John Fernlock.
