been trying all winter TO secure this

large crowds. as it is a play worth
while. The story itself is out OF the

is SO true to life that even the young

The characters are those you meet In
every day life and are handled In a
very capabIe manner by the members
Of the cast, which leaves &. lasting i'm

is not a preachy one, and yet a Won

between right and wrong being so
finely illustrated and aDtlv put that
one feels the eIevating influence and
gains much that is beneficial there
from. II you failed to attend The
