Next week the Lakewood Stock

derellan a play quite similar to peg
O'My Heart which was the biggest
hit of the present season at Lakewood.
In fact some of the Lakewood players
in discussing the merits of the two
plays say that My Irish Cinderella"
is even the better OF the two plays,
so that most successful week is as
sured Miss Margaret Leonard will
have the leading part. With its
scenes laid in America and England
My Irish Cinderella" has romantic
flavor that is all its own, portraying
as it does the career of a pretty Irish
girl. Peggy Mcneil. who finds won
