This engagement will mark the hrst
appearance Of this play outside OF

months at the Vanderbilt Theater. The
ley. will be seen here.
"A Little Journey" has been ac-
claimed as the brightest and most re.
freshing of the plays by Rachel

women alike. The play is in three
acts. The first two actions take place
in Pullman sleeper. bound from
New York to San Francisco.
In the car are brought together
various types Of persons always to be
found on such a trip. Most of them

really important. and 1t takes wreck

tion to shake them out of their selfish
ness.
Although the play is essentially a
comedy and the laughter frequent.
still there is a pretty love story and
several touches of pathos.
In addition to Cyril KeiEatley, the
