the playgoing residents Of this city.
Mr.. Shipman has given to the theater

Miss Lipman is best known for
her "Elevating a Husband" Julie

Of playlets that have charmed audi.
ences for a number Of years.

alone can portray; that Of a kindly
yet dominant old German. Such
character drawings have firmly es-
tablished Mr.. Mann as one Of the
foremost artists Of the American
Theater and in the new play he is
given full scope for his masterful
artistry.
The scenes are laid in the lore
laden hills Of the Catskill Mountains
and It is in this romantic atmosphere
that the action Of the play revolves.
Something entirely novel in scenic
investiture Is promised.

vised the projection Of the play and
