In an article written for the Chico En-

flowers In the spring time the graves OF
heroes who had fallen in defense OF their

would not be appropriate to commem-

had given their lives that the nation

Rather think that Hoosier made smiles
are the sweetest and brightest on this
old earth.
II you doubt that expression sail down
to the Murat with your palm leaf fan

Miss Davis was formerly Of Crawfords-
VILE, Ind, but now OF this city.
and many In the audience were heard to
whisper. oh how sweet she is" and
Isn't her smile just the dearest thing
In the worldly"
To Miss Davis falls one Of the big
roles OF this four-act play about stage
life and this little Hoosier miss sailed
through her first leading role with the
Stuart Walker players last night in
splendid fashion.
Miss Davis has the role of Bettina
Dean, whose mother is bound TO make
another M6ude Adams out of her, but
Bettina wants to marry Jerome Belden
Mckay Norris and settle down on a
farm with the cows and the chickens. =
But mamma (piayed by Judith Lowry

til daughter has a New York triumph,
and so the lover and Max Rosenbaum
(AIdrich Bowker) pick a play for Bettina
which they think Will be a failure, but
It turns out to a great hit.
Yes, gentle reader, the wedding bells
ring for Bettina and Jerome, and the
last we see Of them is a hasty exit to
the little church around the corner.
The third 'act gives a glimpse Of a
stage dress rehearsal, and although this
was rather drawn out in spots, the au-
dience liked the Glowing and the an
ties Of Morris.
Miss Lowry has never had a better
suited part than that Of the stage mother
and her little hysterical scene in the
third act is immense. Fine work, Miss
Lowry
Aldrich Bowker, as the show proddcer
gives a splendid performance and 1t is
so well done that we do not hesitate to
say that his work is one of the big
outstanding features of this Stuart
Walker production.
Mr.. Morris has a role which will en-
nance his reputation as a matinee idol
but the role does not appeal to the
writer as his character did last week In
"The Storm Bird"
You will never recognize Thomas Kelly
as the aged night clerk of the hotel. Let
us have Mr.. Kelly in youthful roles, Mr..
Walker.
AS usual John Wray, as one of the ac-
tors of the play, again gives that rich
ring of sincerity which causes his work
to stand out prominently.
