years to grow crop of trees.

"A Stitch in Time" at the Grand

little play, and considering the fact
that 1t was played to about one-fourth

The plot, perhaps, was not so original

the parts well played. The delinea-

and true to life.
The work of Harry Hollingsworth
as "Worthington Bryce" was probably
the most finished of any and he played
his part exceedingly well, without
overriding it. Miss Nan Crawford,
who played opposite him as Phoebe
