Nuts On Speed

Wing Pinero's celebrated play, Sweet
Lavender" at Moore's Rialto Theater
tomorrow.
Although a few necessary changes
have been made in the perturbation
In order to make some OF the original
English situations more understand
able to Americans, Paul Powell has
done wonders in preserving the ex-
ceptional appeal OF Pinero's MASTER
piece of human interest. Beula Marie

the score, wrote the scenario.
A cast which in itself should prove
an attraction is seen in the many i'm

Hale" and Milton Sills Horace wea-
therburn." Other well-known players
are Sylvia Ashton, ]. NJ. Dumont, Jane
