(By Herald Reviewer.

 Although the offering is somewha t of a change from the two previous productions Of the James Cormican Stock Players at Parsons theater, Hartford. The Hypocrites"t which is being staged this week by that com pany, appears to be equally as su"- ccssful as "Parlor. Bedroom and Bath. or Polly With a Past.
 A woman's betrayed trust serves as the theme upon which the entire play is constructed. Having its setting in q quaint little English village and as its characters the plain rustic folk. the church curate and the other in dispensa ble characters in a country town setting. the play is a pretty of- ferinS. Living in his own world of hypocrisy. the young man in the case drifts away from the woman he has wronged and is led to believe that there is no other course which he may follow. Through the agency of the curate and others. influences are brought to bear which cause him to change his course and retrace the ground he has travelled so that Inc may make amends. His voyage :s made doubly difficult by the fact that he must face the opposition of his family and the many other hypocrites with whom he has come in contact.
